Explaining her action IN statement,
last night Miss Kilhreth said 'We
know that the ultimate object of the

votes for women, and that they have
placed no limit ON their political ambitions.
We simply want test along practical

doubt of the result The only thing we
doubt is whether the Suffrage leaders

on "A straightcut issue like the one We
have suggested TO Mrs Gait.
The letter Of Miss kilbreth 10 Mrs.
Gait reads: we note with pleasure
your informal nomination by Mrs Olsen
of Minnesota as the woman candidate for
President but IL occurs to us that rs the
Presidential field rs rather crowded this
wear. we might offer better and more
practlcal suggestion
1T is reported in the press that former
Secretary Of State Lansing Is the logical
Democratic candidate for United States
Senator from New York to oppose Senator
James w Wadsworth, ir We fully realize
the difficulty of the Suffrage position In the
event that both these distinguished
gentlemen are nominated, for none will
remember more ardently than Suffragists
that Mrs Robert Lansing. as we'll as Mrs
James W Wadsworth. jr was a former
officer and leader of Antl-Suffragist move
ments.
Therefore, 70 give your pro-Sut
frage followers In New York a fair chance
20 register their numerical strength at
the polls IN such a way as 10 leave no
doubt Of the attitude of women voters
toward woman candidate, We suggest
that either YOU or Miss Mary Garrett
Hay forthwith announce your candidacy
for United States Senator IN New York
on the alleged League Of Women Voters
ticket
81 can assure you that the Anti-Suf-
fragc women will sincerely cooperate
with you in making fair test of the senti-
ment of women voters in the largest Suf-
frage State We would welcome rather
than oppose your nomination. In the
election, of course, we would undoubted-
ly endeavor to prove the An:i-Suffrage
slogan that women would rather be rep
resented by men than by Woman Suffrage
leaders. But in any event, We would not
evade this fair test. Would you?

is a long way from factory output but
it is promising discovery Just the same,

While the report does not dis
cuss or even mention the critical
state of the mining industry, that
factor would seem to be ole wor-
thy of being held in mind as tho
the commissions recommendations
are considered. 1t may add or de-
tract from the strength Of the mine
taxation chapter of the report.
In starting its consideration OF
the mine tax situation the COM
mission states that three general
policies of taxation might be fol-
lowed: first, the policy of subsi-
dation: second, the policy of peu-
equalization. These might also be
termed the policies of favoring a
mine. treating 1t unfavorable, or
placing 1t on an exact level with
other taxpayers.
Should Not Subsidlze.
The commission holds that th2
policy of subsidization might be
the part of wisdom under the fol-
lowing conditions: first. when tho
need of immediate development
overshadowed the proper conserva-
ton of potential revenue-produc-
ing assets of the state: second. be-
cause of the fixed heavy subsidies in
competing states; third. because of
peculiar local conditions requiring
a larger preliminary expenditure.
There was no testimony at the COM
hearings to show the ex-
istence of any of these conditions:
hence the policy of subsidization Is
discarded.
The policy of penalization is en-
ployed rather extensively abroad.
1t means the calling upon the mino
for a heavier contribution than that
asked of other economic indus
tries on the grounds that the val
ue in mines owe their existence to
the community rather than the ef-
forts of the individual and that in
taxing mines. one taxes luck. The
