INJUNCTION AGAINST SOLON

There should be perpetual injunc- tion granted against allowing news papers to use the word Solon as ap- piled to modern legislators.
 Solon was a lawmaker of ancient Greece and made a record which en- dears his name to the world, even down to the present age.
 He reduced taxes and enacted laws to enable the people, who were hope lessly in debt to regain their freedom from political slavery.
 He added the great island of Sa- lamis to his country's territory, and established indirect taxation so direct taxes were not much used.
 For direct taxation he divided so- ciety into three classes so that those with the largest incomes paid double, the middle class half as much and those having below certain amount nothing.
 Those who had the highest honors and dignities in the state were assess ed in proportion to the office they held. It will be seen that his ideas were exactly opposite to modern ten dencies and his ideals were really democratic.
