PROPOSED LAWS THAT MAY AT
 FECT POLK COUNTY FOLKS.

There have been almost enough bills, in number. introduced in the present session of the General As sembiy to furnish all the really ne- cessary law for the government of ..s Assl.a.n kansas. natt generally speakine they are not that kind of bills. For the most part they are of a purely local character, interesting to a single individual who seeks some sort of relief, up to a measure to give a special privilege to me county some of the measures are almost too triilng to receive notice, while some of the local laws wanted are of a character that il Is a piss they are not made to apply to the whole state. One of these. For iA- stance, is the privilege If depos- itories for funds of several counties. a measure SO palpably in the interest of the taxpayers, that one wonders that in Arkansas the people must needs fight for it by piece-meal q county at a time Another is a bill, asked for by Johnson county. to re- quire the registration of county warrants provision that if giv- en all Arkansas, would save hun- dreds of thousands of dollars annu- ally to the taxpayers, and positively harm no one but the scrip specu- lators and those who seek to load the people with debt that grafters may thrive
 And, right here is a good place to ask Mr. Burnett what has become of the bill he said he had prepared on this subject for Polk county? Each candidate for Representative, fl viii be remembered. announced strongly for lhis measure
 u noticed that hip hninlt has onereda hiH to abolish the Board If Equalization in Polk county This will doubtless De 8 popular meas ure with some, but without know ing all it's details. 1t is not clear what method If assessment is offered ia stead The Star has not seen any system that seemed more fair than that in use some years back. where the justices of the peace of the several townships sat with the as sessor and worked for an equaliza- ton of the taxes. At least it had many fine points, and was much less expensive that the present Board of Equalization system.
 Several bills have been offered to exempt various counties from the provisions of the Alexander road Jaw, and Mir. Burnett evidently has included Polk county with the oth- CTS. That law, as The Star under stands it, is not forced on any coun- ty, but is merely an implement that the people of any county may ust to build improved roads if they de- sire. It is not presumed that Mir Burnett believes the present law il either efficient, economical or satis- factory, and 1t will be interesting t watch and see what will be offered as substitute for the Alexander Jaw if f anything. Certainly We nees something.
