States Tax Bill to Go Up.

Madison, Nov. 17.-State operating
expenses are likely to exceed provision
made for them from income and COR
pOratiOn taxes during the coming BIZ
ennium, for the first time in years,
according to Miles P. Haugen, chair
man of the tax commission. Increased
expenses at a time when incomes are
lessening and valuation of railroads is
decreasing was given as the cause for
the situation. With the university and
normal schools about to ask for ex-
tensive projects, and with other ex-
penses mounting. possibilities for a
state tax in 1922 have become more
probable. Mr. Haugen said that rail
road valuations had failed to keep up
with the progress of prices and that
as result taxes would be less in pro-
portion unless they are increased by
the coming legislature.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1920.

THE Southern Agriculturist has sized
up the situation correctly when it says
that the country town is part of the
country. 1t is one of the encouraging
signs of the times that country town
business men are coming to realize this
fact. 1t has not been so long ago that
every little town thought that its bust
ness was to grow into city as soon as
possible Some towns and many town
people still think so. Many small town
people, too, still think that their chief
relations and interests are with the
cite farther than the country. The most
farseeing bushes men have come to
know better They are seeing more
and more clearly that the town, the
small city, is an integral part of the
country, that it prospers only as the
country prospers, and that it has it's
place in the scheme of things to be the
life center of the country about it. The
town merchant who opposes cO-opera
tive buying or selling by the farmers
of his territory, the town banker who
would hinder the establishment of farm
loan associations in his county, the
town editor who neglects the interests
of the back-cOunty districts, are be-
coming more and more out of date.
Best of all, town folks are coming to
see that they are out of date. Not
until the country and the country town
learn that they are yOke-fellows and
must pull together can either make the
progress it should. And both are learn
ing.

WAR THREAT BY Jap LEADER

In California.

Tokyo, Nov. 16.-Marquis Okuma,
former japanese premier. addressing
meeting strongly attacked the plan
to exclude Japanese from America by
treaty. He pointed out that hitherto
immigration was restricted under a
voluntary agreement because it was
realized that restriction was prejudf-
cial TO Japan's prestige. The present
effort to make restriction statutory,
he said, was an act of infdelity to

opinion of the whole country. Tf

international morality failed the

fearing that otherwise the question
would lead up to an outburst of self
sacrificing patriotism for which the
Japanese people are noted.

SIX HURT IN 100000 FIRE
Milwaukee Firemen injured When
Flames Destroy Four-Story Build
ing Occupied by the Milwau-
kee Seed Company.

Milwaukee, Nov 17-Six firemen
were seriously hurt in a 100000 fire
which Quilted the interior of the four
floor building at West Water and ely
bourn streets. The Milwaukee Seed
company was the heaviest sufferer.
The building is owned by Mrs. Myria
G. Adams. The firemen were injured
seriously when an extension ladder
telescOped, after the cable which had
lifted it in place was snapped. Oscar
Knoth plunged headlOng from the top
floor of the building to the cement
sidewalk four floors below. Both
arms were fractured and his legs and
body painfully bruised. The other, in
jured are: Capt. Herman Siebarth Of
truck company No. 1, and Edwin
Falsch, Henry Dohman, Fred Schulz,
Fred Brickman and Oscar krcth OF
engine company No. s.. The prize
chicken farm on the roof Of the build
ing was destroyed. 1t was the hobby
of Edwin L. Rosenberg, president and
treasurer Of the Milwaukee Feed COM
pany. He kept 400 blooded White
Leghorn chickens In scientific chick
en- farm on the roof. About dozen of
the birds fluttered TO the ground when
freed by the flames. Mr.. Rosenberg
said his company would probably suf-
fer almost total loss of stock and ma
chinery. "At this time of year we
have heavy stock" he said. ''There
is about $250,OO0 worth of seed stored
there"

THE history of periods following {

THE history of periods following great
wars is repeating itself in our day. The
immediate result of war is always re-
action from the emotional, radical ten
denotes coming to the surface during
great struggles, to conservative, mat
ter-of-fact policies in the political, So
cial and economic affairs. The grand
emotions and ideas which took hold of
the American people during the war
have given place to sober second
thought, The brakes are on. The peo-
pie want TO go at safe gait in all mat
ters. The Republican victory indicates,
if it indicates anything, that the nation
wants those in power whom they hope
can be trusted to guide the ship of state
so it again will ride on an even keel,
and be able to carry its cargo to safe
harbor. Stability. economy, peace to
work and produce, healthy financial
operations, sound practice rather than
high sounding theories have been en-
dorsed by the voters. At least this is
what they expect from the administra-
can be no shifting of responsibility for
the dOings of the men at Washington
during the next four years. The Re-
party Will nave tnC
way. 1t can make or mar its future
during it's coming reign. Mr.. Harding
has been elected not only to do better
than Wilson did, not only to do as we'll
as he possibly can, but to perform the
miracle of making things right at home
and to put us right in the world at
large. The endorsement of the people
is clear, not so much Of the Republican
party, for party principles were only
slightly involved in this election, but of
the promises of Mr. Harding that he
will make his administration responsive
to the wishes and needs of the people
at the present time. He and his party
have a big and difficult job on their
hands. The new ideas which were
preached during the war may be de-
pended upon to assert themselves again.
The economic issues, rather than the
political, affecting the welfare of the
people as whole. insuring greater JUS
tice in the distribution and returns of
the nations material wealth than has
been possible in the past, will force
themselves into the foreground at
not distant date, and demand action.
The political party which prepares to
meet this issue on the basis of justice
and sound economic doctrine will de-
serve the endorsement of the people
when the time for it is at hand.
