But, on the other hand, we should not condemn every sy tem of taxation, and consider it a a curse or menace, simply because crop failures and marketing cond financial situation. Any tax scheme will cause some injustice, but the greatest injustice is always caused by an unequal distribution of the burden, However, in general, the best plan is to distribute thé tax burden in accordance with the ability to pay. The last legislature tried to take some of the burden off real estate und place a larger burden upon per- sonal property and other chattels. On the whole, this shifted some of the burdens that had been formerly borne by the farmer onto the viilage and city dweller in communities where bothyurban and rural coidi- tions exist. It also brought into the tax paying class a large number who had formerly not paid any, taxes, by removing exemptions. This undoubt- edly caused a hardship on some, while ina large number: of instance: for protection, school and road pur- poses, were given a chance to dv so. This new law has hardly had time enough to be tried out before anoth- er scheme is to be proposed by the Tax Payers Association, and which is sponsored by J. G. Gunderson of Anta. The petitions ‘or this ini ed_meagure will be circulated in a fewW days according to Mr. Gunder- son. This measure proposes a fiat reut of 25 percent for 1924 and 35 percent for 1925-26 on the total levi- ed in 1923. That this measure is re- The Capitol Theatre Friday and Saturday.
