ADDITIONAL COMMENTS"

, Additional comments" in Letter
BOX indicate that the writer is more
concerned with what he seems to
regard the unfairness and partisan
ship Of the September election in
Maine than he is with the expense.
There doubtless are many in this
State, the writer among the number,
who do not regard this method un-
fair. and who really believe it to be
q desirable arrangement. Maine is
at one Of the extremes Of the coun-
trys territory. the size Of it's
electoral vote Is small. noticeably
SO in comparison with the influence
Maine has exerted in national affairs.
To whatever cause we may attribute
f. the fact remains that the political
judgment of Maine people respecting
political issues has in past years
commanded, and We believe rightly.
considerable respect throughout the
country. We see no cause to shrink
from the publicity afforded every
four years by reason Of the present
arrangement. Possibly our con-
tributor has not been as well pleased
with the results as have the ma
jority Of Maine people but we do
not think 1t demonstrably unfair or
in any sense unjust, in short an ex-
cellent arrangement to continue.

The Names w ar

(N. Y. Herald Tribunc)
It was peculiarly characteristic or
the Spanish American War that It
should have begun with an accident.
The Maine was blown up in Havana
Harbor twenty-seven years ago;
when she finally received military
burial in 1912 the secret Of what
really happened was forever buried
with her. The American people went
into their first venture in world pow
er on what was probably q misap-
prehension. 1t was a misrepresentation
which persisted. Under the belief
that we We're liberating the Cubans
we unintentionally acquired the Fill
pinos; and under the impression that
we were eliminating Europe from
the Americas we were actually lay
ing the foundation for the spectacu-
lar return, eighteen years later, of
the Americas into Europe.
While we We're fighting the war
we never seemed to know quite what
we We're doing; and when we had
finished we had only a vague i'm
preston of what we had actually
done. Tho imperialism" contro-
versy was conducted with an eye to
the domestic politics of 1900; the
Philippines were for a few years a
mildly exciting experiment in the
white mans burden; Mr.. Lodge
wrote Il two-volume history of the
conflict, and then it was all more or
less forgotten in the new preoccupa-
tons of trust busting and building
the modern navy. That the history
of the war should since have been
SO largely overlooked is not altogeth-
err surprising in that its real history
was nearly all written in the period
of western expansion and domestic
reconstruction which filled the
peaceful years after the Civil War.
The significant thing was not the
lighting, but the development which
predisposed us to fight. while the
war itself was sign, rather than a
cause of our arrival on the world
stage.
The whole war was as fortuitous
as the Maine explosion and hardly
more bloody. Yet it was, as one Of
its veterans has just pointed out,
our first world war. The landing Of
an army in Cuba had it's precedent
in the despatch of General Scott's
eXpeditionary froce to Mexico in the
aus, but for the naval action in
Manila Bay and the ultimate trans
Ter OF distant colony which had
nothing to do with the causes of the
1lghting whatever there was no
American precedent at ALL

A GOOD CITIZEN

A lifelong, loyal friend o. this
community passed on Monday, in the
death of Elizabeth Sturgis Haynes, a
wise friend, withal. Neither the
cares incident to wealth and position
nor the suffering attending long ILL
ness ever replaced in her thoughts
the many to whose lives she was en-
abled to contribute-the number of
these will never be known. but it
was by no means small-nor dimmed
her vision respecting the affairs Of
the community in which her life was
passed. Her mind was clear, her in
terest never tagged, her rare execu-
tive ability and judgment were exer-
cised until the last few hours, and
these it is gratifying to learn were
painless. Because Of her loyalty to
the welfare Of the city, her earnest.
helpful attitude, because in so many
ways she was able to be-and was
an unusually good citizen, so gen.
erous and thoughtful in her friend
ships, the people of the city mourn
her passing as personal loss.

INHERITANCE TAXES

Any law providing in effect a CAPT.
tai levy puts into the hands of the
have-nots, the spendthrifts. the dis
satisfied and the denagogues a
powerful weapon with which to pry
loose the foundation stones Of the
economic structure; any certainty
that the accumulations Of thrift and
enterprise are to be scattered abroad
without~lleed to the wish Of the. ac-
cumulator inevitably must, in a de-
gree varying with the individual.
prove a deterrent. That, much may
be accepted as demonstrable, also
that Inheritance taxes are in the ma
ture of capital levy. 1t is further
demonstrable that, what with both
federal and state taxes on in
heritances. exactions are likely to
become odious.
President Coolidge is distrustful Of
federal Inheritance tax and
thinks 1t should be left to the States.
The State laws, more intimately
than the federal laws, are those I'M
der which the accumulation is protect
ed in his accommodating, Furthermore,
it is pointed out, the States have
sovereign power Of escheat. A State
law providing an Inheritance tax, II
controlled by moderation, has merit.
Unfortunately 1t carries with it no
assurance Of moderation. Uni
formity throughout the States is In
many ways desirable. II the federal
tax be removed any State may in
vite the accumulators to seek resi-
dence there by also removing the
inheritance tax. as Florida has done.
Abolish the federal inheritance tax
and that State would be an oasis for
accumulators. This would serve in
a measure as restraint on unreason-
, able inheritance levies by other
States. Most of those with sagacity
enough to accumulate wealth
probably would not be driven from
the scene Of their accommodating to
any Florida oasis by moderate tax
at home.
Whatever be done about 1t. sight
should not be lost of the effect Of the
Inheritance tax, not alone on those
who are taxed but ON those who un-
doubtedly come to view the receipts
from this source as velvet. Money
regarded as velvet" is dissipated
as easily as it comes. The power
to tax the other fellow invites
misuse. About the only restraint
on community or State eXtrava-
gance is that which is found in
, the assurance that all shall con-
tribute in proportion to their abili-
ties, so we may know, when We are
arranging to spend the money, that
it is coming out of us all indirectly
| if not directly.

DAIRY PRODUCTS

An increase Of "a per cent in 1923
over 1921 in the production of butter,
cheese and condensed milk in this
country indicates that the profit side
of the ledger for the small dairyman
may net be as attractive as it was a
few years ago. However, it is be-
l!eved that dairying puts back into
the land that which may not be OBJ
tanned from some of the agricultural
productive efforts.
1t is gratifying that few could
have gone without butter on their
bread in this country because of lack
OK production. that amounting in
1923 to 1882. GoS,3O4 pounds, valued
1T more than half billion dollars,
while of condensed and evapora ted
milk In quantity there was moro
than one and three quarters billion
pounds, and more than a half billion
pounds of cheese, and it is fair to as
sumo that the land connected with
this productivity is on the whole
richer than before.
