The Hartford herald., 1920-07-07

Many Republican editors. includ-
ing a. few. Kentuckians, have been
tearing their hair and gnashing
their teeth, in an effort to make it
appear that Woodrow is bossing
the San Francisco Convention like
Penrose bossed the Chicago Conven-
uon. Now, anyone with half an
eye knows that the convention has
upheld the presidents policies
throughout, for the simple reason
that the delegates know that more
constructive things were accom-
plished in the first years of Will
sons administration than in 40
years under Republican leadership.
They have confidence in this the
greatest of presidents since the
founding of our republic and desire
20 see his unfinished work complet-
ed.
During the convention, the presi-
dent went about his way, slept sound
ly, ate his regular meals and re-
fused to make known his choice for
the nomination. If making such a
record as to cause your party to be-
lieve in you to the extent that it is
in favor of perpetuating your poll
Icies. is bossing, then. President Will
son bossed the convention; if being
on the wire telling the leaders just
what to do and who to nominae, is
bossing, then, President Wilson did
not boss the convention.

OF PUBLIC INTEREST
MIR. ID. e. Ward,

Hartford, KY,

MIR. ID. e. Ward,
County Tax Commissioner,
Hartford, KY,
Dear Sir:
You will remember that at the
Annual Conference of County Tax
Commissioners you were notified
that you would be expected to assess
all intangible personal property,
live stock, agricultural implements,
agricultural products, manufacture
ing machinery and raw material ac-
tually on hand at the plant at 100
percent of their value, for the rea-
son that it bears less rate of taxa
ton than that of real estate or other
angible personal property. Farm
lands, mineral rights, leases, town
lots. and all other tangible personal
property not mentioned above
should be assessed at 80 percent Of
its actual value. Actual value means
what ii would bring at fair volun-
tary sale as of July /, 1920.
We know that IL you adopt this
rule you will very materially in
crease the assessment Of your coun-
ty. II is the desire and intention
OF the State Tax Commission to
finally get the assessment of pro-
perty up to 100 percent if its value,
thereby enabling the Legislature to
decrease the State rate of 40 cents.
We hope that you will make such
an assessment of your county this
year that it will not be necessary
for the State Tax Commission 10
require the County Board OF Su-
pervisors to finish your job. We be-
lieve the taxpayers will not be dis
satisfied with an increased assess
ment when you have convinced them
that you are applying the same rule
20 each and every taxpayer in your
ccpLty.
We have Just been advised by the
Attorney General that machinery

y The Hartford Republican makes
the following assertion in its cur
rent issue: We want to look the
Democrat in the eye, who has nerve
enough left to talk about the Chica-
go Re publican Convention or any
other convention being boss ridden.
If there is one such and we had him
Gagged, we would be assured Of a
good income by publically exhibit
ing him."
Brother, we know of an animal
much more rare than the one men,
TONED. Go search the country
DER and find us a Republican who
will speak one sentence of TRUTH
regarding President Woodrow Will
son, and after exhibiting his tracks
one year, you'll find that John D.

thirty cents when compared with
your fortune. q
