THE OATH OF ONE is AS GOOD AS H OATH
OF THE OTHER.

The esteemed Magnolia Gazette, presided over by the pol
ished and gentle Joe Norwood, states that we are indlctlng the
Tax Commission and then propounds the query to know wheth-
er or not we want property to escape taxation. HIS question IS
puerile, but we will counter by asking him If he thinks the oath
of the Tax Commissioners is any more sacred than that OF the
Individual citizen who tesifes as to the value of his property;
in other words will Joe believe any one of the members OF the
Tax Commission any quicker than he would believe the individ-
ual citizen? The citizen makes oath as to the value OF his prop
erty, and the Tax Commissioners, sitting at the seat OF the
State government, oftentimes one hundred and fifty miles from
the citizen and his property, subscribe to an oath that they~wll
see that the law is faithfully and properly executed.
The only sure way to secure anything like perfect, UNIFORM
assessments is to establish a state of confidence in the minds OF
the people that every other man is paying on an assessment
similar to his, and that the money taken from his pocket Will be
honestly and economically spent and the nearer you get the as
sessment fixing power to the people, the more certain OF their
confidence and cooperation.
The law as it is being administered, is more or less irritating
and any irritating statute is never salutary.

VARDAMAN KICKS UNTIL THE LAST.

While, now that the people of Mississippi have put the seal
of their condemnation upon the course of Senator Vardaman,
we are disposed to pass many iconoclastic and qulxotlc Things

tor. and will be until March 4, and to that extent is supposed
to at least in some measure represent sentiment IN MISSISSIPPI
hence, were the press and those who are accustomed to speak
ing out in Mississippi not to express a dissent from his course,
especially during the last few weeks, a failure to do so might
he construed as a reversal of sentiment in this state and as show
ing that our people not only disagree with President Wilson
but think him absolutely dishonest and untrue to his country,

MISSISSIPPI WELL REPRESENTED.

At the dinner given by President Wilson on the evening of
February 26 to the members of the committees on Foreign Re-
lations of both houses of Congress where momentous questions
were discussed affecting the welfare of this country and the is
sues before the Peace Conference in Paris, Mississippi had two
representatives in the person of Senator John Sharp Williams,
and Hon. Pat Harrison, now Senatorelect, from the lower
House. Our state was we'll represented. But very few states
were so situated as to have two representatives at the function,
and it was a distinction that the two able gentlemen worthly
filled.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1919-02-28

The whole trend of public affairs today and of much of the
legislation is that the people are looking to the Government to
either support them or to aid them in earning a livelihood. 1t
was Grover Cleveland WHO said that 1T is the duty of the people
to support the Government and not the Government to support
the people" The Ship of State, ever since the Civil War and
more especially since the Republican party fastened onto the
United States the PHILIPPINE Island, has been drifting towards
perilous waters. In the scramble of every fellow for himself
and the devil take hindmost, there is held out but little hope of
getting away from the rankest sort of paternalism.

who knew about as little about leadership or craftsmanship as q
hawk knows about a handsaw. A real legislators hat would
have come down over their heads like a circus tent and a clown
in a pulpit would have been no less out of place than they were
in the places they occupied.
