THE MATTER OF STATE TAXES

Those who are seriously talking
about a reduction in State taxes are
reminded by the report of the State
Assessors that there are two ways
of doing this: First, by abandon
ing some of the things we are now
doing; and second. by carrying on
J our activities for less money"
They appear to have found un-
worthy of serious consideration, any
method of indirect taxation whereby
the taxpayer pays with less Of fret
than he does his direct taxes. They
have, however. added s24,49s,99S to
the valuation Of the State over that
of two years ago and we are glad to
believe are warranted in so doing,
although there is a decrease in the
number of polls during the past two
years OF 1920.
No, our State Assessors have no
getting something for nothing; they
do not find that progress includes
any such methods; they are not
counting on sudden influx of out
siders, who for time and under a
spell of speculation may spend
money here lavishly; they are not
thinking of such temporary eX-
pedients but of well established
policy based on the fact that modern
invention has failed to change the
sum of two and two. Neither does

agriculture and build expensive

expensive roads and bridges the bills

Is that in governmental affairs as in
private affairs there are met many
ways by which the spending OF
money would be productive of ad-
vantage, but that, in public as in
private affairs. we are obliged to
consider where the money is COM

State Assessors to impress this on
our minds.

EVEN-HANDED JUSTICE

Governor Fuller of Massachusetts,
is disposed to think of an even
handed justice in which the innocent
public shares. His refusal to stay
proceedings in the carbarn case
demonstrates that attitude, of which
there has been a noticeable lack in
recent years. 1t may be that the
killer is sub normal there's some
thing the matter with most killers.
His companions may have gone with
rim on the supposition that no
murder, only robbery was to be COM
United. They knew, however, they
were on lawless errand and if they
are hung thugs may be a little more
select ir choice of associates. W.
nowhere have seen evidence of any
even-handed justice granted by such
criminals to the innocent citizen.

Echoes of Bethlehem

How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of those that publish
peace, that bring good tidings of
good things"
Out of the purple ere the dawn was
nigh,
Sang the angels-Glory be to God on
high!
And the answering echoes from far
Proclaiming pesce--a Christ is born
this day.
A new music rings thro' the Syrian
A new star unfolds it's celestial light,
While Bethlehem shepherds with lis
tening ear,
Hear the grand old message Of hope
and cheer.
Above that shining head-those won
Whose depths have caught the glory
OF the skies,
Wise men in flowing robes. with In
cense sweet,
Gather round the babe,-God's mes
senger to- greet.
Harkl Again DER all the earth, the
song sublime,
Peace is the echo of the notes Of Time;
Blending with the melody of Christ
Love is the anchor Of a hope divine.

One Bath woman on Christmas eve
last year commenced saving her
