b\ TAFT DISQUALIFIED Editor Nonpartisan Leader: When I hear or read of a man denouncing & class or party on account of their re- ligious or political belief (and espe- cially when they themselves do not "belong to that class) I can’t help but believe they are very un-American, both in principle and ‘action, and whether his name be William Howard Taft or William Hohenzollern, their ideas seem to be the same. They ‘seem to feel that they are ordained to - look after the mterest of the produc- ing people. No - matter how ignorant a person ‘might be, he has only to investigate . the war record“of North Dakota to know that William— Howard Taft’s statement, as reproduced in the Na- tion (New York) is a falsehood, and any man that is so prejudiced against the American people has no business representing “the government in any capacity. Such statements ought to make thousands of Leaguers. Yours for a better government for all the people. H. P. FOSTER. Dooley, Mont. 5 THE RAILROAD ADS Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I have been reading your Leader for two years and just now I am going out to attempt to get some farmers in the state of Pennsylvania to read your paper. In regard to the advertise- ment of the Association of Railway Executives, will say that if these same “executives” ran their railroads as carefully and efficiently and as sav- -ingly as nine-tenths of the farmers run their farms, the “executives” would not be in the need of money. That line in the ad in, big type: “Present Railway Rates Chiefly Due “ to Labor Costs—Not to Return on Capital,” is not a true statement. The . investigations by congress showed the New York Central and other lines were paying $23,000 for repairs to en- gines to the Baldwin Locomotive com- pany while the same work could be done in their own shops for $5,000. What would we think of a farmer who would take his wagon to the black- smith and pay $20 for repairs which the farmer could do himself for $5 at. home? But if the farmer owned an interest in the shop and his neighbors paid the bills, would he be making money ? The farmer’s fight is the working- man’s fight. The workingman uses nine-tenths of what the farmer pro- duces. We should fight together with the workingman against the Associa- tion of Railway Executives. Corapolis, Pa. ' J. W. HANCE. KELLER BILLS - Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am in receipt of a letter from the Farm- ers’ Federal Tax League of' America explaining the bills introduced in con- - gress by Oscar E. Keller of Minnesota. Also a speech by Mr. Keller in support of these bills; of which there are four in number. Bill No. 6773 imposes a tax on the monopoly of land and nat- ural resources of large value, lands including mineral, timber, stone and agricultural lands, held out of use and for speculation. This is one of the best bills that has—béen introduced into congress in recent years. It will, if made law, break up land monopoly, one of the great evils from which the American people are at present suffer- ~ing. This law will NOT impose a tax on the real “dirt” farmer. Every farmer .should support this bill. Bill No. 6768 increases heavily the inheri- tance tax. This" bill, 1f enacted wxll tend to break up swollen fortunes that are handed down from generation to generation. We need such legislation. Bill No. 6769 takes off half the tax on “earned” incomes as distinguished from “unearned” incomes. The dis- tinction is not very accurate nor very clear, “earned” income heing defined as that “received in payment for per- sonal services rendered or from any busmess or occupation personally con- ducted or in partnmership.” It seems this would exempt from half the pres- ent tax many vast incomes. If a man’s income is the result of his personal ef- fort and is really earned it is a ques- tion whether or not it should be taxed at all. There is room here for a vast divergence of opinion. Bill No. 6767 repeals over 40 taxes, and among others all faxes on cor- poration incomes. Why should not the giant man-made men, the corpora- tions, pay for the special privilege conferred on them by law? The giant corporations are treated in nearly all things as individuals. They are man- made individuals. God had nothing to do with their coming into existence. Yet individuals as they are in the eyes of the law, they, as corporations, have no consciences to feel the pangs of remorse; no bodies to be kicked nor souls to be damned. Yet these giants are allowed to stalk through the land, lay heavy tribute on the people who are groaning under the load, and they _gobble up the natural resources that ~an all wise God put here for his people.
