‘ there is but one voice on the sub
ject.” The Brooklyn Times savs,
“Mayor Gaynor is on the right
track.” The New York |ournal of
Commerce denounces the tax as un­
equal and unjust.
The Chicago
News says it is “a sham and an in­
justice ” The Boston Herald savs
its “record is an unbroken one of
failure.” The Kansas City Si <r
savs “there is no honest ami in
telligent consideration to support
this discredited tax.” Similar ex

was discussed by prominetit labor lead­
ers attending the federation conven­
tion at Toronto irt Massey ball one
Sunday afternoon.
\ •
The Rev. Charles Stelz.le. a fraternal
delegate to me convention of the
American Federation ot faibor front
the Federal Council of the Churche.»
of Christ In America, presided and
made the principal address, saying:
The saloon and the labor hall must b«1
divorced. In too many cities of our coun­
try trades unionists are compelled to pass
through tho saloon in order to get to
their meeting places, and woe betide the
man who doesn t stop to take a drink:
Oftentimes the saloon keepers have a mo­
nopoly of the meeting places In the city,
and many ot the workingmen of America
are helplessly in the power of these tja.il
owners.
It Is the duty
provide centers
the gathering places of the people in their
organizations.
I11 many Instances work­
ingmen themselves have taken the mat­
ter In hand, ami in some ot the leading
cities they have erected labor temples,
which are used tor the social, physical,
intellect mil arid moral uplift of the people.
The day will come when practically
every labor leader will be a total ab-
stalner. In England practically every la­
bor member in the house of parliament is
sn abstainer. The majority of the mem­
bers ot the executive council of the Amer­
ican Federation of Labor refrain from
drinking intoxicants.
John Mitchell declared that organ-
izetl labor, in its tight f<>t- lietter con­
ditions for the wage earnvr, was doing
more to promote temperance than any
other factors, ami lie denied that short­
er hours of labor ami increased wages
resulted in ¡tdtled profits to the saloon.
John B. Lennon, treasurer of the
American Federation of Labor, said
the liquor business lowered the stand­
ard of eltieieOey of the workingman
and prophesied that the time would
come when the forces of labor would
lie arrayed against the saloon.
The United Mine Workers, Thomas
i- Lewis said, had prohibited their
members from selling intoxicants, even
at picnics. Education of the masses,
he argued, would go a long way to­
ward eradicating the liquor trahie.

University Bars Bryan
Lincoln. Neb., March 5—Poli
ticians, particularly th ise who are
candidates tor office or likely to be
come candid.ites, are henceforth to
be barred as lecturers in the interest
ot the University of Nebraska ex­
tension work. That is the edict that
has gone forth from the Chancellor,
Samuel Avery, and in his declara­
tion he has the support of the re­
gents of the slate school.
The new order will ol necessity­
hit such public men as VV. J. Bryan,
United Stites Senators Burkett
and Brown, three of Nebraska's six
representatives in Congress; Gov­
ernor Stallenbergcr and others who
are already on the list as extension
lecturers. The chance'll Jr desires
to have lecturers for the benefil of
those who listen, and not for ex­
ploitation of those who talk.
Extension work was made a part
of the university about a year ago,
and J. L McBrien, who had just
concluded four year's service as
state superintendent of public in­
struction, was J placed in charge
of the department.

Mayor Gaynor of New York re­
cently addressed a letter to the
president of the department of taxes,
Mr. Lawson Purdy, asking what
decimal would be added to the tax
on real estate if personal propertv
taxes were abolished entirely, and
whether persons who |>ay t txes on
real estate did not pay most of the
personal property tax. In his letter
the mayor stated that the personal
property tax had driven many peo­
ple to establish residences outside
thecity; that the personal tax law
was crude and unscientific; that as­
sessment of personal property was
largely mere guesswork; that its in
justice was grotesque; that in the
list were names of people with il
property at <11, while many known
to possess many thousands were
not assessed at all that the law a!
orded an opportunity for extortion
and bribery and leads to constant
diserder in the city’s finan es, and
that not over fifty per cent levied
was ever collected, leaving a large
annual deficit, to be added to the
city's debt or relevied yearly in in­
creasing budgets.
Mr. I urdy replied that probably
most of the personal taxes paid
were paid by the people owning real
estate, and that, not estimating the
decreased cost of collection, the ad
dition to the real estate tax, if no
persoal tax were levied, would be (
or 7 cents on each $100. He also
pointed out that the question pre-
sentyd by the mayor was not one ot
abandoning the taxation of all per­
sonal property, but of abandoning
•‘the small relic of personal property
now left.” The tax on banks and
trust companies alone. Mr Purdy
says, exceeds all the personal prop­
erty tax collected, and is enforced
with mathematical accuracy. Some
classes of personal property hive al
ready been withdrawn by law and
additional taxes imposed on i other
