Dan Moody is the new governor Of the sovereign
state Of Texas a. 80. lie IS young man Tor 5uch
an important position. In seven years n has risen
from an obscure county attorneyshp 70 the posi-
tcn OF chic. executive Of the lone star state and
he didn't do it by following the procession ana
g"paying BALI with any faction He has been Wig
orous, outspoken. He has made enemies by the hun
dreds, nay by the thousands, but those same quail
ties Of direct honesty which made him enemies, also
made him staunch and enthusiastic friends, who,
when the time came rallied around his banner and
elected him the first, and perhaps last, woman
governor the state Of Texas ever had, Mrs. Miriam
Ferguson
Dan Moody is a young Of intellect and ener-
gy. He is fearless. He stands on his two feet
and defies his enemies. His personal character is
irreproachabe. He has played a clean game. His
personality is shrinking that even his political
enemies respect him and frequently support him.
Such is the who takes over the reins OF
government in the state of Texas to- be tried in the
furnace Of responsibility. He will find his way be-
set by difficulties. Texas is hotbed of warning
factions. Matters during the term of MA Fergu-
son have been going from bad to worse. The rec
ord she established Of nearly 1000 clemencies has
worked rreparable harm throughout the state
and has aided the building and strengthening of a
\ Ferguson machine that will strain every and
every effort to buck the new executive.
The way will be rough and the weather stormy.
No easy time will Governor Dan Moody Of the state
of Texas have, but if he is the man he appears to
be he will emerge from the fray bigger and better
than ever.

Separation of Tax Sources
minneapolis Journal)

Forty state legislatures are in session-and
most Of them are looking for ways and means OF
increasing state revenues by taxation. The more
they look, the they find that the federal gov
eminent is occupying promising fields that will
yield fair crop Of taxes annually, but should
not be expected to produce another.
Amid the complexities Of the taxation problem, it
would seem that there should be complete separa-
of the two fields, federal and state. Some sort
oil program agreement ought to be arrived at,
whereby the government would not invade fields
reserved for the states, and the states would keep
cut Of fields cropped by the government. Thus only
shall we escape the burdens of double taxation.
AT present, for example, there fourteen states
that collect an income tax, regardless of the fact
that the government imposes the full burden in
comes that well be tolerated. Bills pending
threatened in number of other states, including
Minnesota, proposing state income tax.
Washington now takes a billion dollars annually
out of the incomes of corporations and three-quar-
tiers of billion out Ct individual incomes. If to
these takngs is added state income tax, the total
may easily become oppressive.
Eleven states tax corporation incomes: Connect-
cut, Massachusetts,, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana,
New York, North Carolina North Dakota, South
Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin. Twelve states
tax individual incomes Delaware, Massachusetts,,
Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York,
North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South
Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin. The rates range
from one to six per cent, and piled atop the
federal rates of 1874 per cent corporations and
maximum Of % per cent on individual incomes.
In some Of these states income taxes are supposed
to supersede personal property taxes, and to some
extent do so in others, the personal tax is retained
in part or whole. The proposal in Minnesota is to
abandon personal for income taxes. But even that
does not justify invasion by the state of field that
ought to be reserved exclusively for the federal gov
eminent.
On the ether hand, the inheritance tax is naturally
a state affair. Yet the government invaded this
field in imposing war taxes, and has not yet aban-
doned it, though eighty per cent of the federal estate
tax may now be RENTED in states that impose it
a similar schedule Three state legislatures,
those of Texas, Indiana and Vermont, have already
adopted concurrent resolutions asking congress to
take the federal government out Of this field, and
leave the states free to handle inheritance taxes as
they see fit. Others will follow suit in due course
Here are two fields that should be left absolutely
free from invason-one by the states and one by
congress- Such arrangement will tend toward
better adjustment Of the tax load to the taxpayers
carrying capacity.

Along Cortland street and adjacent

Browning Peaches separation suit

details of the Chaplin petition al

The once vastly popular Rhine
lander letters, selling up to $25 when
fresh from the press, now stand yell
low with age in backrooms. The Hall
Mills pamphlets lacked sex-appcal, it
was said. Even at 25 cents they failed
to return the investments of the
furtivc printers of the down town
area. The same was the case Of the
Gerald Chapman booklets.

These dolorous ballads, am told,

Awake! awake! the stars are pale, the
east is russell gray;
They fade, behold the phantoms fade,
that keep the gates Of Day;
Throw wide the burning valves, and
let the golden streets be free,
The morning watch is past-the
watch of evening shall not be.
Put off, put off your mail, We kings,
and beat your brands to dust;
a surer grasp your hands must
know, your hearts better
trust;
Nay, bend aback the lance's point,
and break the. helmet bar
A noise is on the morning winds; but
not the noise of war!
For aye. the time of wrath is past
and near the time Of rest,
And honor binds the brow of man
and faithfulness his breast,
Behold, the time of wrath is past
and righteousness shall be,
And the Wolf is dead in Already
and the Dragon in the sea!
