believe that no one other thing could
accomplish so much IN the promotion
of economic and industrial progress IN
this country. Wa have said this over

II for no other reason than that tho

THE GOVERNORS CAMPAIGN.

As tho state campaign progresses
there are moro and more signs or
trend toward Gov Roberts. Ills stump
ing il successful HIS appeals 70 tho
voters OF the state are meeting with
reader response ana democratic lead
crs In Nashville ARE more certain lhan
ever Of his reelection.
Some democrats, ycxed for various
causes early in the campaign, were
lulcwarm to the idea OF the governors
e-cloction; II In these same men who
now ore coming around TO Roberts
every DAY. The wrinkles IN tho state
campaign are being smoothed out The
bitterness OF certain misguided individ-
uals against the governor because he
kept tho party pledges In aiding the
ratification Of suffrage is disappearing.
Tho only cogont objection to Gov,
Roberts that ever could have been
found was his tax laws. There had
been a suspicion In the minds Of many
that while the real estate OF the private
citizens, and their personally, would be
raised 10 a cash value assessment, the
public corporations would get off light.
This objection has been dispeled. Tho
railroad commission, acting as tax
board on thu various public utilities OF
the state, has published Its figures OF
assessments on the companies. These
figures show conolusively that a high
figure has been put on corporation prop
erty--a figure fully as high as that
placed on r6al estate and personally
owned by individuals.
Hamilton county'B experience with tho
now assessment law hns demonstrated
that although in principle there arc
some points to be desired In practice IL
works fairly and well. and forms
splendid start to tho thorough reform
OF our system Of taxation that the
governor has been working toward dur
ing his administration.
Hamilton oounty's assessments were
fixed by a woll qualified local ofIicial;
they were reviewed by = local board;
the figures were carefully gone over by
n stnts statlstician. and after the two
reviews. Mr.. Louthan recommended TO
tho state equalization board thnt It in
dorse Mr.. Howoll's work. This II did.
There was no horizontal lift in the
taxable values Of tho county. as had
been predicted by some alarmist. There
was no roughshod overriding Of the
local elective official, as inspired critics
had predicted The principle OF nssess-
mont by a man responsible to the peo-
pie who elected him was maintained.
The principle Of taxation at full cash
value was also attained. II has been
n noteworthy experiment, and one
which has had success far brighter
than could have been expected for the
initial attempt at 40 revolutionary a
thing as a revision OF our outworn, out
f-datc, cumbersome tax laws.
