dunn on the
Tax
he People Should
Final Say

ssI AM WILLING to start referendum
against the poll tax," declares }. r.
Manning.
Fine! There are undoubtedly many more
who will join in the movement. They should
get together without delay. The campaign
should be organized quickly-and the work
completed while we have the opportunity.
In less than 80 days, we shall miss the
chance.
at Is one of the most damnable pieces of
legislation" asserts Manning. That's put
ting the case not one whit more emphatically
than it should be.
The poll tax 10 wrong. 1t Is wrong in pr'n'
ciple, and will be found wrong in practice.
1t violates the first principle Of taxation, in
that il seeks to impose the tax upon rich and
poor alike, in equal amounts-upon those
who have much and those who have nothing;
not one cent more upon those who are able
to pay than upon those who are unable to
pay.
TAXATION, since time immemorial, has
been considered unjust if it did not re-
gard the idea that it shall be borne in the
proportion that one is able to pay. The rich
must bear the greater burden, the poor the
lesser burden. In principle, there is no gain
saying that. In actual practice the rich have
often shifted the burden to the poor, just the
same. The rent payer thus pays the tax,
and not the landlord, tho the latter often
thinks he does.
And now comes the poll tax, which
doesn't even recognize the principle of equi-
table taxation.
The rich bachelor, with the income of a
millionaire, would pay less poll tax under
this measure than the workingman who has
a wife to support For the tax hits every
man and woman between the ages Of FL and
5O-and each must pay IS.
Once before a poll tax was enacted in this
state, and it was declared unconstitutional.
The present measure, it is claimed, has
cured the constitutional defect noted by the
supreme court in the other law.
If that is true-if the law Is constitutional
there 10 but one remedy left the people of
this state-the referendum.

They kept up the good work until in
desperation Carter was rushed in 20
take the place of Hetrick, who had
pitched good ball up to this point.
Carter steadied the skidding Zimtown
machine with his crafty work, but the
damage had already been done and
six big juicy ones went up on the score
board for the locals making the count
8 to in their favor. Immediately the
Princeton Odd Fellows began to tell
their visiting brothers how the home
team had just been foollng them along
up to this point and now there was
going to be nothing to it but the
shouting. And so it worked out, but
the shouting was all the other way.
"Sliver" threw the boots into his ath-
letes once more and back they came,
went over the third line Princeton de-
fense in rousing charge and plant
ed four more counters at the home
plate-score IL to 9 in favor of Zim-
town. Princeton made one more des-
perate effort in their half of the ninth,
but the best they could do was two
more and the game was over-12 to
II il! favor of the visiting Odd Eel

can raise this money themselves or
new stock can be sold but in Mr.

they will be successful in the under

country and there are many substan-
tial farmers in that community who
can undoubtedly raise quite a sum of
money in short time.
