THIRTIETH YEAR NO. 27,

YET MILES LIVES., Infatuation for the wife of Luther

M. Miles caused Arthur McFarland, son of D, II. McFarland, mayor of the village, to shoot Miles Tuesday evening while returning with his wife from Xenia, .

The shooting occured near the Conklin farm on the Columbus pilce about five thirty and there Is every evidence that the act was premedi­tated with a view of faking .MIIob life, as four bullets entered his body.

As Miles and his wife were driv- Ing homeward they overtook Mc­Farland, who was walking in the same direction. Upon.reaching him lie grabbed the horse by the bridle find yelled at Miles, “ D—you, get, out and walk and let me ride.” Miles got out of the buggy with the purpose of freeing h"is horse which McFarland was holding. As he did so McFarland drew Itis. revolver and fired, the first shot taking effect in left lung, lie continued to lire from under the horse’s head until ho had eraptied his revolver. Four shots entered Miles body yet lie proceeded to release' his horse. He grappled with McFarland threw him down and took his gun away. Then let

, him up and he ran into the rVoods. Miles and bis wife returned to Xenia where ho yould have his wounds treated.

At the McClellan hospital it was found that his chances of recovery

. wore slight, yet he continues to live and there are some hopes of getting well, should blood poison not set’ in.

McFarland is still at-large though the surrounding towns and cities have been given his description. The last known was on Wednesday morning when James Van Sicklej who lives on the Xenia and Clifton pike stated that he had been hired by McFarland for $1.25 to take him to Clifton the night previous. At that time Van Sickle aid hot know of any'trouble nor did McFarland give him any reason to suspect same. It is supposed that McFarland went from there iip the lower river road To am uncle, Charles McFarland, —, Miles and his wife' had gone to

•Xenia Tuesday afternoon to do some shopping. McFarland saw Mrs. Mutes on the street and f 1- lowed her to her buggy where she gone to put some bundles. McFar­land had told herthat he had just come from Dayton and was going back. He was not seen after that until the fateful event on the pike.

McFarland lias for some months back been paying his attentions to the Miles woman. He is said to. have been insanely jealous of hor, this being one of the reasons ad­vanced for tlio attompt to take Miles’ life. There has been trouble in the past that was only the fore­runner o f the shooting.

Last May while Miles was at lodge, he being # member of the I. O. O, F,, McFarland called at the Miles home and threatened to ‘ ’ blow out her brains” as Mrs. Miles states. He Was there the next morn­ing again and officer Kennon hail to be called and take him away, Mc­Farland is said to iiave had a re­volver at the time the officer took him away.

Miles owns and operates a thresh­ing outfit and is held in the highest esteem by the fanners. He has good habits and is straightforward m all his business dealings.

But they also have erred through wme and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the

| prophet have erred through strong drink,* they are swallowed up of wine, they are ou t,o f the way through strong drink; they err in vision they stumble in judgment— Isaiah 28;7.

Isaiah, most brilliant of the Old Testament poets, left many bright sayings on record, but nothing‘su­perior to his denunciation of the drlnk habit. This was the first tem­perance sermon ever delivered and Isaiah was the first-prohibition agi­tator. The Israelites, as their his­tory shows, suffered much from the vice of intoxication. Noah was scarcely off Iub ark until lie became beastly arunk. .* Fine fellow to start a new race with. It was because of their debai^oh at Sbittim witli the Moabite women that “ Jehovah's wrath/was kindled” against the riot­ers and to this drunken orgy was due the subsequent extermination of the Midianites. This first “ saloon row,” as it may well be called, was the prime cause of the most brutal, cruel and inexcusable war recorded in the history of his “ chosen people.1 After-they had settled in Palestine, grape raising Was the principal agri­cultural industry, aud they drank entirely too much of their own wiiie. By the time of Isaiah, which was in the eighth century B. C., it is evi­dent that drunkenness in its worst form-was alarmingly prevalent. It will be noticed in the extract above that not, only the people, but the priests and prophets, were addicted to strong ,.dnnk and severely de­nounced by the, old .temperance re­former. "

Twenty-seven eventful centuries have passed since Isaiah delivered his sermon on the “ Woes of Drunk­enness,” and we are still .fighting the same awful curse. The twentieth century secs a battlo royal in pro­gress between the people,of-the Uni­ted States and the entrenched for­ces of intoxicating liquor. Never -before was-the crisis so acute, and never before were the prospects so bright for victory over the “ demon of the still.'1 The coils are being closed around the monster in every state of the Union; and It is hoped ln.tlmo that life may be choked out o f him entirely. Ths temperance netiS.laws grow .more a»d m m t d»atjl»AHWi»|y JWmtwi ,:>8»wfliWWMr>*and the determination of the masses of the people for their enforcement becomes stronger and.stronger every day. Within the last few months three Circuit Court Judges in India­na have decided that the saloon m a nuisance, a foe'of peace and morals, and that the State has no right to license it any more than it would have a right to license murder.* What is still more remarkable, two Boards of Coupty Commissioners have refused to license saloons oh the same ground.

It is pleasing to note that farmers as a class are overwhelmingly on the side of sobriety in this titanic strugglo against the chief foe of mankind and principal obstruction in the pathway of civilization. The rural districts are practically all anti-saloon, and have either driven itout or are preparing to do so. Soon these abominations will be confined exclusively to the large cities. There, wo are sorry to say, the vice still: lingers in Its worst form. Go to any fashionable hotel 'between tire- hours of H and S o’ clock and you will find w^li-dressed men and wo­men In the cafes, eating and drink­ing. There around the midnight table enthroned betweon Bacchus anil Venus drunken men hiccough., out immoral arguments and obscene jests. There sharpers and bullies and hard-hearted, impudent de­bauches nightly hold forth for the edification of tho rising generation. Here may be seen beardless yputlis, still in college, reeling around the wine glass, while women of question­able character Indulge in weak laughter and maudlin applause, Hero the night rounders, “ men of the world,” tjio rake, the libertine and the roue, lie In wait for the vic­tims that are to be baited with wine. There are many Evelyn Thaws Avho arc notfound out, who do not get in the courts as the result of. mur­der. In every great city of this Union there are to be found^fnslnon- able dens, ns Infamous as that of Stanford White, where drunken orgies are Indulged in l>y men and women with foreheads of bronze, hearts as hard as nether millstone and tongues set on lire of boll.—The American Farmer,

A number of crossings have been put down and there had been other street work which swelled the bills for the month to the amount of $042.08. The D. S. Ervin Company had a bill of $142.67 and member Andrew suggested that It be held over until the next meeting or a part payment be made so that a number of small bills could be paid. Robinett of Xenia cut his bill from nearly fifty dollars to $86 if it was paid that night. He had put in some cement work for the corpor­ation.

Mr. I. F. Puffer was re-elected' as a member of the board of health anil his appointment confirmed.

The regular reports of the different committees and officers were heard and approved.

A GREAT SUCCESS.

Antioch Chautauqua closed last Sabbath night at Neff Grounds after a very successful toii Hays session under the direction of Dr. S. D.Fess.

Tire attendance the cIosing/ day was the greatest, there being near­ly seven thousand yiersons on the grounds. Tire efforts of Dr. Fesa m giving the Chautauqua have been greatly appreciated by the people of this county and ho. in turn has been greatly pleased by tire support given him in return.

He has already announced that part of the attractions for next year have already been contracted for anil from time to time others will be signed and the list be made pub­lic. It Is expected that the meeting next year will be held the corre­sponding week, but this is not. defi­nite,

The principle speaker Sabbath was Governor Buclifel of Denver, Colorado,-who opolre in tbo-mormng- oti “ How Wo Got Our Bible11 and ill tire evening on "Theodore Roose­velt, the Man of tho Hour.”

There has been some rumors that a stock company wlil be organized to take charge of the Neff Grounds and conduct tho ehautauqua next year. Tire location for such gather­ings is regarded as ideal with traetjon and steam cars running alongside the .grounds.

When it came time to sell the bonds some weeks -ago, peculiar as It. may seem, L. H. Houston pur­chased- the bonds. Ttre -issue was for $85,000 and the premium was $625. The bonds draw interest q,t four per cent. They are not tax able which would make the rate of interest equal to six per cent.

The board was paid:the money for the bonds and there was no place to put it, other than a bank. The. law requires that the board of education advertise for bids for the care of the money. Where there are banks in the district the money must be left there, providing a rate of interest equal to two per cent will be paid for tire deposit. ,

There is a bank fight in South Charleston abo,ut like the political tangle in Cedarville. Two banks, one owned by Iloustons and the other by Rankin Bros. L. H. Hous­ton has a brother on ; the school board but he has no interest in the bank. James Rankin Is a member of th school -boarfi^and-he-ro-L, H-.- Houston used shrewd tactics to get control of the $il5,000 deposit,

When L, H. Houston appeared before the board and demanded the money trouble was started. The board wanted to divide it between the banks but the millionaire strenuously protested. He wanted all of it . and threatened the board trouble if it.was not given bin. The law makes~it illegalmakes~it illegal to . deposit money in a bank wherein a member of the board or another public offi­cial is Interested. The money was pieced with i lie two banks. -

As sec­retary of war he lias-to keep an eye on the scattered parts of our small army in all parts of the world, and efficient oversight of that feature alone is tax enough upon the time and abilities of any ordinary man but in addition to constant) over­sight of Jthe army Secretary Taft has immediate oversight of tee Panama canal of the provisional govornmenfc.pf Cuba and Porto I^ico and of the Philippine islands.

' It may be a piece of ordinary ' Boosivelfc luck, Or it Way haye been

something more than a coincidence that there has been a big batch of land fraud indictments' returned in Denver just-when the Public. Land. Convention is getting busy. Tills convention was worked up originally by men thoroughly opposed to. tlie President’ s western land policy. -They builded themselves a con­vention after ijheir own liking in the City of the Plains. Then1 came news of the movement to Washing­ton, and through some gen tie, under­ground channel, the -governor of Colorado was moved to issue invitations to the - Secretary oi the Interior and a number of other federal officers all familiar with the land, forest and .irrigation situation to come and address .the meeting. Of course, the convention could not decline to hear them, and the pros­pects is thflt the rank and file oi the

■ assemblage’will be won over to the President’s way of thinking in land matters. But atop of this comes the batch of land fraud indiefpoent for people “ high up” in the land stealing business. Sixof them hare been served with subpoena* and deputy sheriffs are out hunting 67 more victims. It is very striking anctsuggestivo Incident coming just now as to the wisdom of having a

. firm and settled policy in dealing with the comparatively small amount of government land still remaining in the west.

Sayti Te!«do Wait# bt ira*d;h#LU Story Kmart #tl*# From

fnamy’a Camp.Tho punsnrvattf«* Toledo li'alfi has

answered t:so Ami Taft Roorintok"’ emanating''from Wart «*'«n and In­spired by the war secretary’:* political eneipics. Branding ihe ■lory of tho ’ ’rumored retirement" of Secretary Taft fro:a tho t-'e-rf an.such, the Siiinio piiuta ibe ,foliowfog editorial? . .

“The wish wh* fat bar to the thought of thoso who started tie atory that Secretary Taft lmd tired of the political game and would withdraw* from the presidential rc.ce. It needs no utter­ance from him to prove .the falsity of the story. The war secretary Is no quitter. He was averse to becoming a candidate and only consented when it became obvious to him that it waa a duty he owed the Republican party. The demand for a candidate, who stands squarely on the Roosevelt plat­form and who Is qualified by experi­ence to carry out the Roosevelt policies is unmistakable. Nor is It confined to any one . section of the country.

“Secretary Taft Is that kind of a -candidate. No other member of the president’s official family has been quite* as close to the chief executive. Whenever there was * delicate mis­sion to perform It wns Taft who was chosen to do the work and he* did it so well as to justify his selection by the president. Hence he Is pot only familiar with our domes tie and for­eign relations, but' probably, Is better

■ posted than even the president him­self on condition1 in ;tb,o Philippines, Hawaii, Porto Rico, Panama and Cuba. As governor of the Philippines he ad­ministered Its: affairs no wisely and humanely that the pessimists who do dared the. Islands would: forever be the center of petty revolutions have been forced to acknowledge their error. And tfie \ secretary himself win participate within a short time in the first step of, a proceeding whlbh is designed' ultimately to give the Islands self-government, On several occasions he has visted. Cuba In an official capacity at times when trouble was threatening and as is Well known has achieved -remarkable success in convincing the Cubans that this gov­ernment la sincere in its' desire to give them every opportunity to run their own affairs. His visits to Panama have been fruitful In advancing that great project and to tho betterment of sanitary conditions. In fact whatever the official task asafgned-'tho secretary, It has bean completed In s manner creditable to the nation,

j* Not-a emitter,“With this record .behind him.^and

with the knowledge; that his ideals of citizenship are of .the highest, it Is no •wonder that Re ibUcans from every section of the Country are rallying to hi* standard, not because they think he fir favored of the president, but be­cause they know he has demonstrated i&t ability to take W Che work which tit*- preabimtt hAs- iaimtiriottcaJly en­gaged in for tha glory of'the nation. It need# no public utterance on tho part of Mr.. Roosevelt to acquaint the people with hi# opinion of Taft, for that opinion ha# frequently been ex­pressed in official fitted# and is a part of the administration's history. But it is a source of real pleasure to those who arc supporting Mr. Taft to know that their candidate stand# well with the president. To deny that this is an element of strength would bo tanta­mount to claiming that Roosevelt han lost his Influence with tho people,

“The best evidence that the Taft campaign has‘attained great momon turn is tho desperate efforts made by tho opposition to- Check it. Ho has been called tin? choice of “Dictator’' Roosovolt, although there is not a syl lable of proof that the president Is in­terfering for or against tho interest of any candidate. It has been claimed that lva is not available, that ho has elements of weakness which . would make, with him a« the leader. Repub­lican victory uncertain, If not impos­sible, The reception of his candidacy by the people is the best answer to that. And, 'Anally, it is reported that he IfLgolng to withdraw, although tha authors of tho rumor know that “Bill" Taft Is not weak-kneed; that when he goes Into a fight the other follow has cause to romomlfi'? there has been a fight; that he decides slowly and rare­ly has cause to. revoke his decision. So when he hf.e led the urgent appeals of liia friends -to become a candidate, he became a candidate In very truth, and until tho Republican convention of 1908 make# final choice of a leader,"

T A F T ’ fi ftO O S E V IL T IS M .

A correspondent of tho Cleveland Leader in a letter to that dally nays;

“Roosevelt’s pledge to carry out the policteo of McKinley was so redeemed and approved by tha people that his nomination In the face of tho utmost efforts of his enemies In 1501 waa a foregone conclusion long before the convention met that nominated him. His election by the largest popular vote ever given a candidate for office, demonstrated his popularity with the people of tha whole country. That he commands the confidence of tho coun­try today can not be denied, Tho fact that he stands squarely* against a third term but intensifies popular admira­tion for him, And the fact that Taft more than any other public man rep­resents Rooseveltism entire makes him the logical candidate to continue the policies Roosevelt has so ably and patriotically followed.”

From early rporn until late at night there was something doing for tho crowds that thronged the streets.

The rnoruing was devoted to races of different kinds, catching, of the greased pig and the base ball game with the. Dayton Blues. The game resulted it^Ccdarvlile winning by a score ot 0 to 4,

In the afternoon the first attrac­tion was the judging the best turn­out. ■■ AJarge number of rigs were entered. Q. C, Wenner won -first,S. T. Baker, second and G. F.Sieglar third.

The races were good and all the classes well filled, The crowd was estimated at several thousand peo­ple. The only accident of tho day was when O* Whitson was iujvmd by his horso rearing and falling backward on him. Whitson, and Ridgely of Springfield collided and after the tangle the horse reared.Whitsun was thought to have been badly injured and I)r, M. I. Marsh was called.' Ho was much improved later in the evening.

The crowd In town during fire evening exceeded that of the after­noon and it line boon a' long time since the public square held as ma­ny people. The cake-walk was the attraction. Lo<m!jwuptee took part.

These southern beans or peas have been acclimated, to the short season of hot weather in Missouri and because of rapid growth they cover the soil, and overshadowing and outgrowing such useless plants as pursley, amaranth, ragweed, mallow vervain, iron weed and jimson or stramonium. The cow pea is becom­ing a source of profit, as well as preparing the land for the crops which follow. The peas, like all leguminous plants, enjoy a slight shade and therefore are usually planted among corn,, and pastured or else gathered for ensilage. Corn is planted in drill rows every 10 inches, rows being placed 6 feet apart; seed is covered when corn is being laid by. The cow pea grows rapidly and cpvers the soil like a mat, which causes the land toTetain moisture during the heat of summer; These “ met” cow peas may bo pastured, or they may be allowed to grow until the weather becomes frosty when the plant ceases, to grow and leaves may be slied. At this season of the year the air Is too chilly and damp to poruiit of mak­ing hay. The peas having , ceased to grow, the vines are dragged out by the roots and transferred to a pen in the barn and mixed with well- cured hay or fodder corn, layer atterlaycr, and stacked up as high asr convenient.

JOYOUS BUCKEYE HOMECOMING AND REUNION

To Be Held In Columbus During ina Con­tinuance of the Ohio State Fair,

' September 2, 3, 4, S and G.

HAPPY REUNION O F OHIO’ S TRUANT CHILDREN' - -

10 0 ,0 0 0 Native Ohioans Now Residing Without the Boundaries o f the State to Return to Dear Old

Ohio and Participate in the Joyful Festivities.

Elaborate Arrangements Planned to Entertain the Vast Throng and A n Entire W e e k - t o Be Spent In Renewing the

* Sentiments o f Those Happy Days o f Long Ago

. (Special Correspondence.)' .Columbus, O.—-(Special.)—Ohioans

have planned a Joyous Home Coming, to bo held in. Columbus during the continuance of the Ohio State .Fair, Sept. 2, 3, 4, 5, G, next, and the event gives promise of being the grandest in the state’s history. Hundreds of letters are being received dally from absent Ohioans, assuring the commit­tee - of their presence on this joyful occasion, although the formal invita­tion will not be mailed until July 1.

Lovo and pride of native heath will bring them back to again live over, the happy days of long ago; and to Visit those cherished spots where, as youthB, they had loved to Unger. What a pleasure 'twill be to again visit the ; old homestead; to wander once mote over those familiar spots where those happy childhood days were spent, and to mingle with our friends of former

■'days."How dear to our hearts are the

scenes of our childhood,” and how fondly that dear old mother will en- : <brace her noble son; how proudly that venerable father will grasp his hand In royal welcome, and with what de­light will that loving sister and broth­er welcome home the returning son.

Among the throngs of returning Ohioans will he many who marchedaway with the boys in blue .to Lin­coln’s call for volunteers, and who.- Tfictastr mine*; beautiful rivers, and

will com§ again soirie one wilf meeV you who said “Good-bye” the day you went away.

“ WELCOME,” in capital letters*will be written over our doors and across our hearts, Loyal men and royal wo­men will grasp your hand and give you greeting as roses greet the dew.

.In all the world there is no place like Ohio. Endowed byn nature with riches, beauty, grandeurf she stands without a peer the attest home for man. Her forefathers laved liberty and hated tyranny. Her pioneers had courage to worship God- and fight- a king. Her mothers .braved the hard­ships of the wilderness and risked the danger of the tomahawk to he beside the men they loved while a common­wealth was being built. Thus con­ceived, Ohio was- well born.

To the north, is Lake Erie, and across the-bosom of this inland sea sail the laden, ships of trade. To the east, the chimneys of industry the marts of commerce and the grayes of our ancestors,’ To the south lsj "Old 'Kentuck,” the' cotton, the cane and “Dixie Land-’* To the west, the “Fields of Grain and Gold,” the home of Pros­perity and Legal Tender,

In days primeval the Reft Man loved Ohio second only to the “Happy Hunt­ing Grounds.”- When the “Palefaces" catho the bravest Indians of the. conti­nent roamed her forests , and l-*d do­main. Weaker tribes had to he con­tent with' less favored spots.

BEST STATE OF ALL.Ohio is -ah, empire. Seventy-two

cities and, countless' towns; fertile fields and busy shops; Iron roads and

after that historic strife was ended, settled in the southern or western states. They now return, feeble with the weight of years, their honored lives fast ebbing away,- to visit Once more their native state ere they an­swer the chip for enrollment in that

r great Army above.How joyful win., he the event; how-

happy the greetings of old friend* long parted, ana how dear to again tread upon the soil of the greatest and grandest state in all the Union. Foremost in agriculture; foremost J» Industry; foremost in war or peace; peerless, / beautiful Ohio welcomes back her children. .

For many months the Home Com­ing. Committee has been industriously, seeking out the names and addresses of former Ohioans, with, the result that the following Invitation will bo extended to one hundred and fifty thousand Buckeye cltlzons .who have strayed from their native’ heath."Home, Sweet Home, in Old- Ohio.”Ohioans wll? promote a “Joyous

Buckeye Heme-Coming,” to be held in Columbus during the first week of September, 1D07.*

Centrally located, it is appropriate that the State Fair grounds, at the

picturesque hill*; aphools and school- masters, colleges, churches and mag­nificent tempSe*; %ien'dld men, splen­did -women sad * freeborn citizenship make Ohio grand- sad great, '

.’Tis a hezitage to have been horn In Ohio, Her dome ara potent. every--, where. Sft* »urada upon the thresh­old of Opportwajjtjk, £s the leave* of the Buckeye tree are the first to ripple and tremble In the gentle zephyrs of springtime, *0 are her men and her women first in the realm* of human endeavor, In peace or in war. To pub pit, platform, bench and bar she has given leader* beyond compare, In science, literature, art, drama, story song and battle, she has gained re­nown, Her Star on "Old Glory" adds strength to the Union. Her sons have proven illustrous pilots of the nation. Her, Edison ahd her gohius have driv­en back the darkness and beckoned the God of Progress on.

The Fair Grounds at Columbus aro ideal for this great reunion; they have no equal anywhere. A million dollars has been expended to beautify and adorn with imposing buildings, pleas­ant driveways, shady walks, magnifi­cent pavilion* and commodious rest rooms.

I From far and .near will come Ohio’sCapital City, should he chosen as the (famous ''Buckeyes," An Interesting chief tryatlng place for old friends to j proi-rttm will ho rendered every day. meet and greet and talk of other times I expense will be spared to entertain

Breathes there a man With soul so

live outside the state. The ebbing tides of the ocean always turn again -home. We command all absent "Buck­eyes.” Wherever you may be, to be guided by this precept of the sea.

You may take the fond heart from Its home by the hearth, but wherever It goes It will yearn for the place of Its birth. In the memory of every one are pictures of childhood, painted in colora that will never fade away,

PILGRIMS, COME BACK!Ye pilgrims, como back! Visit once

more the old homestead and sit on that cool and cozy porch as of yore. Brink at the old well and swing on the gale again. Drive the cows down the lane to pasture, and climb, if you can, the old red apple tree, as you oft have done before. Linger awhile at the “Old Swlmmln’ Hole” and stahd where the marbles used to roll.

In the breast of every absent "Buck­eye” wo hope to create a desire that will bring you back to HOME, SWEET HOME, IN OLD OHIO. A desire to see the boys who are now men and the girls who are now women. A desire that will overcome all barriers and bring yon. back to old neighbors, the old hearthstone and the family circle.

Roam ah far os you may, grow as old as youwin, "there la yet that mys­tic, invisible chord which runs from your heart back to the old associa­tions.

Since the day you hade adieu, much water ha3 gone under the bridge the pictures on the wall have faded some: tho old clock on the mantel has ticked A thousand million times; but if you

dead, who to himself will not say, T love my native Buckeye State. I am going back to my Old Ohio.' ”

We appeal to all who ever called Ohio "Horae” to come and Join the happy throng.

Even though this vast asmy of no­ble men and women will be invited, wo would suggest that each of our readers mail tho names and addresses of absent Ohioan* to T. -L, Calvert, Secretary, Columbus, that all may be apprised of the Joyous Buckeye Home Coming,

Ohio Will don her fairest raiments; her citizens, noted for their hospital­ity, will out-da themselves In provid­ing uultablo entertainment and wel­coming the guests, Tho Ohio State Fair will bo hold la Csluttbus during the continuance fit the Home Coming, and hero in mammoth buildings, sur­rounded' by a beautiful forest park, will bo mirrored Ohio’ wonderful pro­gress in tbo arts and industries. Here also tho happy throngs can moot in brotherly reunion, and rfb doubt under the shade of its lofty trees many pleasant reminiscences 0f childhood flays in the old Buckeye Stato will bo exchanged. In addition to tho many attractions of the Fair, tho city of Co- lumbua is plauniug eiaborato recep­tions, balm, parades, carnivals, otc.» and one solid week will bo given over to entertainment and the renewal of old Sentiments,

: : “ Is Our Present System o f Taxation Correct

and Epitable V*(A Paper by Henry W. Naegele

of Middletown, O.)*f!l~ifcTlntiJbifa*ll>ili»TaJiAJl■* ■«■ -»■ J..1.,t■», • TTTTTTTv TtttTTTTTTTTt tIn a paper read before, the Men’s

Round Table club of Middletown, 0., on March 2, 1D07, Mr. Henry W. Nae- gele of the Middletown Tournal dis­cussed “Taxation” in interesting manner. Mr. Naegele Is prominent In labor circles. After pointing out that the tax system of Ohio is unjust, he considered income and inheritance taxes as follows;

“Of all modes of taxation, the in- > oome tax is the most just and equit­

able. Every man can hfford to pay according to his income, and ought to do so. There is no other perfect fsthndard of taxation; none other which does not inflict more or less hardship and Injustice.

“The tax comes upon the pri­vate revenue of each year, out of which tho government should receive its share-for the annual revenue of tho state, If the private revenue is in­creased, so should be the contribution, to the public revenue; If .the former is diminished, the latter . should be also. ThlB Is. fair and just. Were It to supersede all other forms of taxa­tion, perfect equality would be estab­lished; property and...labor would bear each ltB juBt share of tho public bur­dens! To do this, it would he. neces­sary! to ascertain the Income of every man; of every laborer, whether his wages amounted to one- hundred or one thousand dollars a year; of every professional man; of every operative, male or female;- every capitalist, banker, merchant and mechanic. Upon the gross Income, thus ascertained, the income, thus ascertained, the gen-.; eral tax should be levied, pro rata.

"That many ■ men are dishonest there can be no doubt; but when the law taxing income is regularly en­forced from year to year, the difficulty of concealment, on the part of the. tax­payer, is constantly increasing. His neighbors and competitors in business have an eye upon him, if they believe he is making false statements, nnd-ho-

. can not long escape detection."Another onjecuonj made is that,

men do not always like to have their Incomes known. But why. should they not? We. have already said that, in the matter of taxation, all are co-part- nors, having a pro rata Interest. What one does not,pay, others must. All, therefore, may rightfully demand such Information as shall furnish the means of assessing a correct tax.

“Besides this, an income tax well enforced will be the means of diffus­ing a large: amount of Information most important in regard ito the cred­its which business men are required to give. The position and ability of every man will be better understood,. This ia an important consideration.

“We do not advocate the adoption of the income tgx as a substitute for ail'

have acquired pr held during their lives must pass into the possession of others.. May the person who is about to leave the world'say to whom his wealth shall Immediately descend? May he go farUior and say to whom it shall, descend for ail coming time?. May. he go farther still and determine what specific, use shall be made of his wealth forever? - Or shall the laws of the state decide tho questions—to whom, for what purposes, and for bow long, the wealth of the deceased per­sons shall descend? Does the world and its wealth belong to the living or the dead, or to both in common? If to both, what portion should belong to each? If the dead are allowed to con­trol a part, why not all? Which party, the living or the dead, will most In­telligently decide how wealth can ho advahtageously employed In produc­tion, or in any other mode, for the ben­efit of the living? •

“These are points involved In tho subject or Inheritance and” file testn- mentary disposal of property, and aro important in an economical point of view, irrespective of all other consid­erations. These questions have prac­tically been decided by the laws and institution's of society in different ages net, countries. Governments have al­ways Interfered In regard to the es­tates of deceased persons, to such an extent as to prescribe limitations and conditions. So far as these laws have been in harmony with Instincts of hu­manity, and the law* of value, they have been beneficiont In their opera­tion. But all tho wealth, all the in­stitutions, all the interest of society, should ever be regarded as fully un­der the control of the existing genera­tion of men. This should be a funda­mental principle in civil polity; and, if law may Interfere In this matter at nil, it may do so to any extent the public Interest shall demand.”
