TAXATION AND INTEREST ON MONEY.
This matter of UKiiry laws, anil thur irrifK.rt.
nnco in umnoction with tho financial success of
jur State, excito considerable attention i)f late,
anil will doubtless comu Uforo tho next I.tyin.
Iaturu for action. All tho arguments of tlumu
who favor rcjKjal of tho usury law, fall to tho
ground Mora tho factM connccteil with our own
history, that arc bo evident that thoy ncul no
argument. 1'ho main fact is that our Statu has
prosporcd since tho passage of tho present usury
law, anil that that law has worked beneficially.
Certainly tho money lender ban not suffered,
and tho liorrower ban a bettor hIiow. That
many bavo ovaded the law and changed moro
than legal interest, by 0110 pretense or another,
in true, but in a great many instances good
men, who arc money lenders, have rrcognied
tho Ian ami accepted tho legal rato of inteieit,
in which nil regular banking Iioiihih bavo ion
rurred. It is hardly nossiblu to admit thn rtil,.u
of (InancLil scieniu to a new country like (he
gon, but as wo grow it is the duly of legislatnm
to keep paco with tbu general advancement,
mid adopt laws consistent with it.
Tho great desideratum is to induce .apital to
1 omo hither for investment; money is abundant
elsewhere, and ijuito lately tho Hank of Nevada
purchased a million of U. H. Isinils bearing four
Mjr cent interest. This shows that money ii
ubundant in San Francisco, and these bonds aro
considered a good investment, hecniiso they aro
not liable to taxation.
Tho propf r assessment of property is a mut
ter often discussed in Uregon, mid novir deci
ded, ami perhaps this question has a great deal
to do Willi tho rato of interest 011 money bor
'owed. It is a fact that very little "money" is
ictiiiiiul in tho assessment, nnd tho general
HiipjNisition is that money lenders do not make
fair returns, which luting tho case it is eidcut
tlml fi tlfoit to tax "money, mitt and no.
roiints," is a lailure." Our attention im called
to the fact that "money, notes mid accounts"
nro not taxed in tho State of Maryland, and ni
n eousciueiico of exemption of money loaned
from taxation, money can lj lxirrowcd, on find
rlass seciuity, in Riltimoro, at four per tent
pur annum. Considering tho illllieulty, and nc.
tual impossibility of arriving at a lorrcct assess
mint of "money, notes and accounts," Mary,
laud does not attempt to anr''uud tax thim,
but all tangible effects, ival uud personal prop
futy, aro taxed wberover found, no exemption
being allowed for dabUnnil tho holder of prop
erly buihg hld rcKAiihlo for taxes 011 tho
,., MIU)l,' '
At tlrst look this would seem to bo a hard-t-hip
to tho debtor, it is claimed that it is not,
but that when money and evidences of debt,
including mortgages, go untaxed there is in
ducement for capital to seek such a country,
uud to accept a low rato of interest in view of
tho f.ict that the principal is not subject to tax
ation. It would perhaps require a short time
for tlunucinl matters to become adjusted under
tho new system, but that would soon Imeflect
rd. If, as is commonly claimed, such mm is
are not usually given in at a fair llguro, then
the change of law would relievo the public eon
Ncii'iice of a great deal of dishonesty, ami tho
lesult would U an increase of taxes, while no
I'xciise would remain to tho money lender on
th! ground that be was heavily taxed 011 money
ioaue.1, ami could only save himself by charg
ing exorbitant interest.
What we need !s abundant capital at a living
iriw. If wo can sustain manufacturer among
us w shall thne more rapidly and lo more
pruoperous. If wu pay high iuteivst manufae.
turcrs cannot thrive, men cannot thrive in any
pursuit or oeeujiatjon. With 110 taxation of
money and indehtedii.-w., the debtor will have
the advantage of lower rote of interest, and
capital from aliroad will be sum to come in,
lendy to Ik) loaned on good security.
Those who favor this system of assessment
assort that if it is adopted among us the effect
will be to stimulate enterprise, cause great im
provements through town ami country, and
that n general advance in values of property
will tale ilw., which will make tho State
prosnuis Mid ineie.iso the total of taxable
AHuets of the people.
Those are the arguments urged in favor of a
I'liango of assessment that will make f.ilse re
turns imiosihlojacuangeof taxation that shall
make capital seek our State for investment, and
lower the rate of interest by causing money to
Iki abundant. If this system works well cl,,..
where, why cannot it work well hero? Wo pre.
