The Democrats seem to realize, to
their dismay, that If they can't per¬ suade Mr. Hughes to change from plaintiff to defendant the case Is lost. —N. Y. Sun.
In a little more than a year, the State Department, by a strict enforce¬ ment of tha tax law that all taxable lii'op'':ty shall he assessed at its full value, and by the apiilication of a sys- ; tcmatic method of a.ssesRment, more than three hundrod million dollars worth of assessible property has been placefl upon the assessment rolls. This vast Increase In value cannot fail to lower tlio tax rate In nearly every rornmunity in tlie state, ami to make lower taxes consequent upon reduced expenrlltui'es. Every dollar's worth of property that escapes its just share of taxa'ion throws an ailded burden upon the property that pays.
A strlkinK illustration of the differ¬ ence in administrative methods under the present state administration and the three Democratlr administrations that preceded it, is furnished by the offlce of the State Superintendent of Flections. Under the Democratic admn- istrations, there were three superin¬ tendents. Under the present adminis¬ tration, there is one. Under the Dem¬ ocratic administrations there were three chief deputies. Under the pres¬ ent administration there is one. Un¬ der the Democratic administrations there were 175 permanent deputies and 400 per diem deputies and the department cost the state $.'?49 900 a year. T''nder the present administra¬ tion, with the idlers eliminated and an efficient system of transacting the buslne'.?s of the offlce, the cost is only $196,240, which saves the taxpayers approximately $155,000 a year In the running ot this one department.
A NATION^AL DUTY.
"If a policy looking to the up¬ building of American enterprise should be favored by anyone, Jt is the man who toils. What he wants Is steady employment at American wages, which cannot be realized by a revenue-only policy, simply because It Is im¬ possible if he is not protected from the low standards of Eu¬ rope. The only protect'on is in the law. We have been able to secure thi^ protection when we maintained protective legisla¬ tion. This Am^erican legislation has been uninterrupted since the days of Lincoln save a hare half a dozen years, the two periods marked by the Wilson bill and the Underwood bill—both peri¬ ods notorious for the universal distress among our people. The Republican contention, backed by our own history, is that It is a national duty to Insure our standards against the lower standards of Europe."—Hon. B. D. Fees of Ohio.
