CRABTREE CANCELS DATE;
HON. KNOX BRYSON SPEAKS

Col. w. k. Crabtree, candidate for
governor, was called to East Tennes.
see and had to cancel his appoint
ment to speak in Covington last Fri.
day, for the present at least.
Hon. Knox Bryson, of Franklin
former commissioner of agriculture
and now a candidate for the Demo.
cratic nomination for railroad com.
missioner for Middle Tennessee, spoke
IN the courthouse at 1880 o'clock Fri.
day afternoon to an audience of about
l25. Mr.. Bryson, who was gracefully
introduced by Col. Hugh 7. Simonton
did not attack the principle Of the
assessment law, that is that property
should be assessed on cash value
but very vigorously attacked and crit.
cised the method of the representa-
tlves of the state tax statistician in
arriving at the cash value of realty
contending that production, location
and demand for specific farm prop
erty should be taken largely into &C.
count, rather than that the amount for
which certain realty during periods
OF initiation was sold, should govern
when said realty was assessed Mr.
Bryson contended that many counties,
among them Upton, would, under the
new assessment, pay considerably
more state tax in 1920 than in 1919,
notwithstanding the claim being
made that the sliding tax scale would
make the actual amount of taxes in
dollars and cents practically the same.
He contended that the taxes on realty
for the year 1920, that is in dollars
and centsy would be considerably in
creased, but that the taxes on corpor-
atoms would be in reality consider
ably reduced due to the sliding tax
scale, the inference being that the
valuations of corporations would not
be raised or INCREASED in the same
proportion as. the values Of realty, as
otherwise both would be on parity
with reference to increase in taxa
ton, unless corporations have hereto
fore been assessed at a greater per
cent of their actual cash value than
has been the case with realty. He
commended that the sliding tax scale
would "slide up" on really and would
Slide down" on corporate property.
He also criticized the provisions Of
the utilities law, placing the power
in the hands Of the State railroad
commission Of fixing street car fare
rates, etc.
One of Mr.. Bryson's principal
pleas for support was the fact that
he is a farmer and that as so per
cent of the people of Tennessee are
farmers, the farmers should have
representative on the State railroad
commission, which now has authority
to assess all property, including farm
property.
He said the railroad commission is
now composed Of Hon. B. A. Enloe.
"a lawyer" Of Gen. Harvey H. Han
nah, "a talker," and of Hon. &. N.
WEIGH, "a manufacturer, and that
the formers should have one repre-
tentative on the board
