London, Oct g. -- Former Premier
Asqulths letter to the London Times
declaring that he was not alarmed by
the spectre of an Irish republic and
advocating dominion home rule In the
widest sense, has. created somewhat of
sensation In political circles and is
considered significant In view of Vis-
count Grey's pronouncement ana the
recent letter from Lord Morley. which
while making no actual contribution In
the way of solution of the Irish diff
ficulty. advocated taking larger
views" In Irish matters.
Among the downright opponents of
concessions to Ireland. Mr.. Asquith's
letter Is denounced as mere sop to
Sim Fein violence" and his advocacy
of Ireland possessing Its own army is
impossible.
The newspapers commenting on the
Asquith declaration take up what they
consider the weak spot. In that II fails
to suggest any method OF dealing with
the Ulster question and show how the
north and south can be brought to-
gether
Premier Lloyd George will make a
political announcement at I.lanelly,
Wales, on Friday and Il Is expected
that he will deal with Mr.. Asquith's
proposals.

Local Data

will indicate that the owner has Been
 paying only 10 per cent of his prop
 erty which has, been subject to taxa
 ton at so per cent.
 Alabama is making no demand on
 any ta mayer except that sanctioned by law. Tns -xing authorities say prop ertv shall pS Sfuniformly assessed at 50 per cent of it's reasonable cash value. Montgomery county is no exception; it has not been singled out for these raises The work of equalizing taxes
 is going on in every county. The cry
 has always been that the rich counties are easy pickings for the taxing au- thorities. This administration pro-
 poses to distribute the tax burden among all the property owners. Every
 person will be expected to pay on 60
 per cent of his real property
 SQUARE DEAL FOR ALL
 "I promise all taxpayers that the
 power of the state will be used to pre- vent the assessment of any persons
 property at more than so per cent of
 it's value and at the same time I must
 promise the state government that all
 power will be used to force the tax
 dodgers to meet their just share Of the
 burden of government
 of there are any persons in the state now who do not believe they
 should pay taxes on 60 per cent of
 their holdings I must tell them they
 have slumbered during the time they
 should have been awake. The so per
 cent valuation law was enacted in I1911 The legislature was in session
 in 1915 and 1919. Then was the time they should have brought their idea to the front. The law is now written and the law must be made supreme. "It is anomalous but nevertheless true that many persons who are now fighting tax raises advocated assess ments on a basis of 100 per cent in the hope of preventing income and ton- mage taxes. These persons are now demonstrating their insincerity when they made their appeals last year. FAVORITE ARGUMENT During the session of the legisla. ture those opposing the income and tonnage taxes made raises in assess. ments for ad .valorem taxation their favorite argument One attorney, in his argument to the supreme court against the income tax, said the proper method was to increase ad va1orem assessments to 100 per cent The cry of last year and the howl in Montgom- cry county this year would indicate that some persons would prefer to dodge taxes than to meet their share of the responsibility to the state. Alabama must have more funds. Some property owners are not paying taxes on SO per cent of their holdings. Since the state is not receiving suf- ficent revenue, it is doing just what any business corporation would do collecting those accounts which arN long past due.
 Any aggrieved person has lawful means of relief. The state does not want anything which does not belong to it. It hopes those who know what they owe will submit to proper as sessments It is willing to adjust al! honest differences in the manner pro- vided by law, but not in mass meet ings."
