WILL RESENT INTOIERABLE
TAXATION

a sign of the times that those who
WELD the taxing power, whether in
Washington, or in states. cities and
counties. will do well to heed. is in
dicated by the action of monster
mass meeting in which every resident
Of Custer county, Nebraska, partici-
pated last Thursday at Broken Bow
and which met to protest against
high taxes, the sense of which meet
ing is shown by this resolution unan-
imously passed:
"A very large number of farmers
and others have not, and will not in
the near future, be able to pay the
enormous taxes levied and assessed
against their property in the year
1920. AS a result OF the laws passed
by the recent legislature providing
for large increases in salaries of manS
state and other officers, and for un.
usual and enormous appropriations
very large percentage of the prop
erty owners of the state will be en-
tirely pOwerless to pay the taxes
levied and assessed against their prop
erty this year. Where there are en-
cumbrances on the property the result
of this intolerable taxation will be the
loss, to many. of their homes"
This resolution applies just as well
to our own Missouri legislature and
our own state as it does to Nebraska
for both bodies acted identically the
same-added on all that the tariff
would bear.
New York has set a proper pace
for its Legislature reduced it's appro-
priations s1S.OOO,OOO over that of the
year previous. and the New York
Herald terscly remarks that 'ft is up
to every state government and village
government to do the same thing, If
1t doesn't want something to drop on
it like a thousand of brick"
1t is. we think. a very wise and
timely observation, and one that
should lie extended to take in the
federal government as well. For the
federal taxes, direct and indirect,
have come to be very large part of
the enormous burden of taxation the
American people are called on to
bear, In New York, the Herald fig
! ures. the average cost per family, for
/ state. municipal and federal taxes, is
not less than S72O a year. A good
many families have little more than
that to support them; themselves they
pay little or nothing to the tax gath
| erer. But they must not think for
that reason that they escape. They
are paying taxes when they pay high
rents They are paying high taxes
when they go to the corner grocery.
| They are paying taxes when they buy
| fuel and clothing. A very consider
able part Of every dollar they spend
is exactod from them TO make good
for what the seller, somewhere along
the line, has already paid into some
public treasury.
The New York Herald is a republi-
can newspaper, loyal to the admins
tration at Washington, and believing
that the republican party is divinely
ordained and exquisitely competent to
govern. But with all that it makes
bold to sound this note Of solemn
warning:

menting upon bis discourse before the

truly says: "This is sound counsel.
Coming from a clergyman it might we'll
be needed by clergymen generally, SO
many of whom areinvoklng the pow
era of the State to establish standards
of conduct which the churches have
eonfessedly not established. I'd that
extent, of course, the churches are
admitting their failure and are abdi-
eating in favor of the State. As a
matter of fact a censorship, in a de-
mocracv, is per Sc an acknowledgment
of the majority's incapacity for self
government. 1t is a forfeit to the
State of the right of choice, a surren-
der OF free will, 1t is patent, too,
that censorship and liberty cannot ex-
ist side by side; they are incompatible
Moreover, censorship is no new-fan-
gIed device. 1t is as old as the hills.
1t has never succeeded. Either it be-
comes a dead letter or develops into a
tyranny which sooner or later begets
revolution. Though all this is written
across every page of history, many
persons still believe in the potency of
a be it enacted. Such belief is a delu-
sion and a snare.''

AN Ex-A. E. F., writing to the st.
Louis Post Dispatch, says of the
American Legion;
The Legion went to the polls last
fall for Harding, and Harding put a
bump on their heads. Now they are
crying for Mr.. Wilson. I, like the
other %two-thirds of the service men
who are not holding conventions, be-
lieve thatof ell organizations il Manner
Ca today the American Legion ought
to hang its head when the name of
Woodrow Wilson is spoken. They
repudiated Wilson last fall. Why
kick now over the bitter medicine DR..
Harding is prescribing?
l am not endorsing the statements
made in the foregoing; but l would
like to know if his assertion that the
members of the Legion "went to the
polls last fall for Harding" is true,
and, if they did, what actuated them
/ would like to hear their reasons
and the columns of this paper are OPP
en- to them for that purpose.
