THE J-ORCE BILL

came up George, of;Mlsslsslppl was pro

Stewart of Kevada, republican,) moved

The motion carried by a yote of 34 to o.
The following republican voted with the
democrats In favor of displacement: Jone
and tttewart of Nevada, McConnell and
Shoup of Idahe, Teller and Walcott of
Colorado, Stanford JJ,of California and
Washburn of Minnesota.
The result was a gieat surprise to the
republicans and the democrats were cor
respondingly jubilant. The scene when
Grandmatherss!Ioar, I law ley, Sherman
and Edmunds saw their little pet nursling
ruthlessly driven from the august
presence of grave senator m ust have been

TUE MOKTUAISRTAX LAW.
The hue and cry Is heard throughout the
state that the mortgage tax law shall be
repealed. Tlios who aro calling loudly
for the repeal are making known through
th press the reason fur this demsnj. The
first Is that th law Is of no benefit to the
borrower tor the reason that the mortgagee
always stipulates In the mortgage that the
borrower shall pay the taxes. Herein Is
much weakness In the case presented by
those who demand the repeat ot the law.
The mortgage tax law was not enacted
tor lit purpose et promoting th Interest
ot th borrower fr any other particular
class ot people. After some years ot ex
perience In the state, It was found thatag
rlcultural communltet whoso greatest
wealth Is In their farming lands, are the
greatest borrowers,and that capitalists who
loan money on these lands do not, as a rule
live In the communities where the lands
are located, but live in th money centers
Now, under our system of deducting In
debtedness In making tsssessments.a very
great Injustice was done under the old law
to a large portion of the tax payer ot these
agricultural counties. It happened In this
way t Assessor tor year have been as
sets! ng lands at from one fourth to on
half their value. This In the face ot a law
that require that lands shall be assessed at
their true cash value. A man having
farm worth 13, 000 bono 0.1 mortgag
)3Pi.o from some capitalist outside ot his
county. Shortly atler the astrssor p
pears an J assesses this land, placing the
value at $3,000, where upon the owner
claims a deduction ot $3,000 on account ot
the mortgage on the place. This being
allowed It leaves the owner with no taxes
to pay on thl land. The mortgage,
owned by a n an In some other cour.try
would, fit the mortifsire tax law were
repealed,) be taxed In that county
and thua whatever taxable value there
waa In the taim was transferred
another county to the grert Injury
of the 4tax payers ot the eounty where
the land 1 located, for, to that extent, it
would Increase the burdens of the tax pay
er of the eounty In which the land wa
situated. This Is the principal reason why
the passage of the .nortgage tax law was
demanded. If the mortgage tax law shall
be repealed It wl.l leave all mortgage to
be taxed In the jurisdiction where the
owner ot the mortgage llves,for being per
sona! property they ould follow the per
son of the owner. Then all parries living
out of the state, but loaning money In the
state, would escape all taxation on their
mortgage In the state, thus putting our
own money lender to great disadvantage,
a they would have to compete with those
who pay no taxes, when they themselves
would have to bear the burden ot state,
county ani municipal taxation. It la a
fundamental principle of the goverment
of the state that all taxation shall be equal
and uniform. This applies with as much
fore to commur l.lc and countlc as to In
divlduals. Any law by which the taxable
value ot one county are transferred to
another la violative of this fundamental
principle. This was the principle object-
ton to the law as it stood before the pts-
sage of the mortgage tax law. Until
something better than the old law or the
mortgage lax law ts cfTercd the mortgage
tax law should not be repeal d. t

PEMMOX GO-BETWEENS.
It dow appears that in setn.ing to recom
mend a reform in the matter of pensbn attor
ney's fees Commissioner Raum slyly sought to
serve the attorneys rather than the pensioners.
What be recommended was the passage of a
law reducing the attorneys' fees ''in all cases
ol increase ol pensions pled after the passage
of this act," As there are already, 300,000
claims psnding, Mr. Rsum's qualifying words,
if inserted in the act, will give the sum of l,
400,000 to the attorneys which, without these
words, would go to the pensioners. No wonder
the attorneys believe in Mr, Rium and are
ready upon occasion to indorse his notes.
But why should Congress potter over this
matter? Why should it not at one stroke
adotish the whole system of go-betweens in
the Government's deslings wi'h i's pensioners?
Why should these men be licensed to levy a
tax upon the pounty of the nation? If-liy
should srey be er oi'te 1 to take for their own
use anv ?art of the money the country gives
to ita di nbled veterans?
Eve.7 honest j en jinn claim can he as well
presetted and as pro aptly allowed without th
assistance of a pension attorney as with it.
No attorney is required or can be useful unless
there be fraud to be forwarded. Tb blanks
or pension claims might be placed in the
hands cf postmasters for delivery to pennon
claimants upon application. Anybody can
611 out such blanks, and the Pension Bureaa,
if honestly and capably managed, can and wil
adjudicate every claim in its order and upon
its merits.
Hortst claimints peed no attorney in the
Pension Office. Dishonest ones are not prop
er objects of Consideration. The go-betweens
should go."

When the new disability pension bill
was passed by th last congress, It was
confidently asserted there could not be
over 300,000 claims of all kinds under It.
Like all pension blils the tacts double on
the estimate.
On the loth ot December titer were
53 39 claims died under the new pension
bill, and during the week preceding the
date named the number of applications re
ceived was 9.173. With claim Increasing
each week, all calculation I at fault as to
the number ot pensions that will be claim
ed under the present laws
Wt have now about 500,000 pensioners
on the pay roll, and the number ot pend
ing claims one week ago was 1,151,041,
with the claims largely Increasing each
week.
Th last week reported, ending on the
aoth Inst., recorded 9,173 new pension
clalma received, and 578 disposed of, ot
arhlch 5,3(16 were allowed and i,;ia re
jected.
It the 1,1 53,04 1 pending claims and the
other hundreds of thousands crowding
in at the rate of nearly 10,000 a week shall
be disposed of by allowing nearly eighty
per cent of them, a the record ot the last
week reported show, our Tension list
must soon reach th appalling number of
1,500,000, and it will require much more
than $aoo,ooo,ooo annually to pay them
The people are Just beginning to wrestle
with the pension problem, and when they
get down to a hortxot.tal view of in annual
treasury deficit of more than $100,000,000

Henry A Brown of Massachusetts, the
noted sugar tariff reformer, has been here
conferring with the leading oficlals and
members of congress about the t:rcrt tut
In the duty on sugar to go Into e ffect next
April under the tariff law, and It effect
on the revenue of the count ly. Mr Brown
insisted that the lost of revenue from
making sugar almost duty free, together
whli the bounty to be paid to augar, pro
ducers In this country, 111 amount to $70,
000,000 a year. He is clearly ot the
opinion that it will be found advisable and
that It will be the duty ol congress to re
store fully three fourth of th present or
otd dutt on sugar and discontinue or re
peal the bounty feature of the new law.
He has no doubt that the rapid Increase
In the production ot sugar in this country
will very soon cheapen permanently the
price of that article to American consum
era, and that a sustained duty on sugar
would be a powerful factor In treating
with sugar-producing countries for recip
rocity. Mr Brown says his opinion and view
on this are shared by leading republicans
