Cannot Understand Why State Taxes Are Doubled Over - 1918 Amount Because of the slowness with which taxes are being paid, the various | funds, while in a more or less healthy condition at this time, face an al-| most complete depletion by the end; of June, figures just compiled in the state auditor's office indicate. All taxes including the state hatl | tax are only about 55 percent paid up at this time, while these taxes exclusive of the hail tax are about v. 28 percent paid up, This is con- siderably below the normal amount. for this time of the year, the figures | show, the average being nearer 75] percent of the total amount to be collected in the state treasury by May 1. Penalties High It is expected that tax payments will be very small until next fall ‘n spite of the high penalty and in- terest charged against delingrent taxes. At the present time the in- terest and penalty charges on real estate taxes delinquent is 5 percent of the total amount, while that on personal property is seven percent of the total tax. ‘On June 1 there will be an additional penalty of two per- cent added to the penalty on real estate while the penalty on delin- quent taxes increases one percent each month. | The ‘Nonpartisan league news- papers in the state have been at-; tempting to prove that the increase | in 1919-1920 taxes is not due to state taxes, but the cause for the increase rests wholly on the cities, townships, counties, school funds and’ other sour ces. This is refuted in a statement |prepared by Tax Commissioner ; George E. Wallace, a Nonpartisan league official appointed by the league administration. ‘Four Examples Four representative counties in the state contribute ample proof that there is considerable difference be- tween the 1918 and 1919 taxes solely for state use and not including the new hail tax.

Coates of Seattle, Wash.,, | formerly parliamentarian, and one of the organizers of the league, is a per- sonal friend of mine, and as a con- sequence, I am familiar with the league. Its aims are splendid, but its results under Townleyism are rotten. My object in writing this is to place before the public for their consider- ation, what I believe to.be Mr. Craig’s true-stand in the political sit- uation in this state. I may be at error in some things, but the strength of my convictions is sufficient to make me feel warranted in making them public.

Before beginning his speech on the 28th, Mr. Craig made inquiries if there were any railroad brother- hoods represented at the assembly, and was informed there were none. He opened his speech in a rather peculiar manner, considering what he afterwards said. He began by tsaying, that regardless of people’s political differences in opinions, they should not make the matter personal or resort to personalities, in short to} refrain from mud slinging. After his request for people to re- frain from mud_ slinging, Mr. Craig took up the Switchmen’s strike and upheld their stand, which has been condemned by all organized labor throughout the country. Mr. Craig soon waxed eloquent, and played continually to the radical element in his remarks, gradually getting to the | mud slinging point. said “They call us Bolsheviks, I. W. W.'s, Soci , and such. ‘What does labor care so long as labor gets what tit wants?” At the point I reminded Mr. Crai that this was America, not Rus: It is such thoughts and acts as radic- als that have done the most to hurt organized labor; for all organizations like individuals, must maintain integ- rity and they are nothing. As a member of either organized labor or the American Legion I could not let Mr. Craig’s remarks go un- challenged. Mr. Craig, I understand, was for- merly a captain in the army, and is a man of mentality; what surprises me most is the fact that such a man can tie up to and be a worker in such an outfit as Townleyism. At Butte both Mr. Townley and Dunn came out in speecehs and knocked the American Legion as wolves in sheep's clothing.
