OPERATION POLICE BILL.
Gov. Roberts Addresses Large
Crowd at Dyersburg Much
Enthusiasm shown.

Dyersburg. Oct. 20. Especial. ,--C3ov
Roberts addressed the voters of Dyer
county here Thursday afternoon. The
audience, one OF the largest that has
months. was composed of substantial
farmers. business and professional mer
from this and adjoining counties
Many ladies' were also present and evil
denced much interest. Many Of the
the large auditorium and were Obliged
TO remain standing.
The governor was introduced by T.
q Gcrdon. In eloquent terms. Gov.
Roberts launched at once into a discus
sion OF the state police bill. He told
OF the many Instances where innocent
parties owed their lives to this law,
while the state had been saved thou
sands of dollars in property. The next
Issue discussed by the governor was
the taxation question. He discussed
of an equitable tax system When he
was first elected governor; read from
the platforms both democratic and re-
publican OF 1918. In which 1t was urged
that a law be enacted that would
equalize the assessment of all property
so that all the taxpayers should pay
their Just proportion Of taxes. He
showed the inequality OF the old sys-
tenn, some counties paying far less
than their just proportion al. the ex-
pense OF others, That he made a con-
vincing argument is the opinion sof all
who heard him His address was ap-
plauded liberally. especially at times
when he made a telling thrust at his
competitor, Col. ALI Taylor. He showed
as, result OF the tax law that all
classes would pay thesr proportion OF
the taxes and that the school system
OF the state would be materially bene-.
flied thereby. Gov. Roberts paid a
Flowing tribute to the heroes OF the
World war and Gordon Browning. cam
