about like this: "Well. the commits
sion, after a conference under the
electric fans OF the capital. decided
that they would have to raise some
more money somewhere. One Of them
suggested that the farmers are get
ting good money for their products
nowadays and 1t would be good
idea to put the increase on the farm
ers. That struck the others about
right, but one Of them suggested that
before taking action il might be very
well to take a look over the Rich
land farms. This idea took and get
ting into their cars. they took ride
out into the country. They did not
see q great deal anywhere that seem
ed to make noise like big prosperi-
~. so they drove back to the state
house for further discussion. Under
the refreshing influence OF the fans
and the ice water they evolved some
thing like this: That since all pros
perity has to come from the land be-
cause there Ks no other where for II to
come from, and since II Is evident
that there Is not much coming from
Richland ii must be coming from the
other counties: therefore we will raise
the assessment on the other counties
and so the burden was placed on the
acres OF the farmers"
