"We lnvc tlfvtlitpfil ii yrm it
Uxmioii in this country that ii in

h. K. McKclvir. epteVinR at the
noon luiuhrnii of the Onuh Liont
club at llmrl Rome yesterday.
Two method by which taxation
J hat become inequitable cited by
" Governor Mr Keltic were the Is
suance of tax-tree accuriliet which

putting the burden of the rout of
fcovernmrnt on those least al)le to
pay, and the tax-free municipal

the rity reap the benefit while the

Taxes Due for Drop.
"Taxation i a subject of whicii
we all aie thinkitiK a Rrcat deal.'
ilio ..i.iiTiior wul. Tln is a sub
ject that iimmIIv comet up at elec
tion tiny', but this year we have re-
y to a wine aicusnon 01 u
rVi i.raiiii. not out of season from
point of nccc -ity but from a point
j of custom.
"The cost of government has
mounted by le.ifis and bounds but
not in proportion to the cost m
oilier lines. Now the coxt in other
lines i receding while taxci are not
declining so fat. Taxes will re
main hit;h. but will not be as high
as they have been. The sti'.e levy
for this year will be one-third less
than it was last year. While we
have gone beyond the point in public
activities that should be the limit
for which the people have to pay In
raxes, the state government has be
gun to accommodate itself to the
needs of the times.
Service Measure of Cost.
"The cost of government cannot
be measured in amounts of money
but should be measured by the ser
vice rendered to the people in
other words by what yqu get for
your tax money."
Many of the state activities, such
at the new capitoi ana tnousanas
of miles of good roads, were peti
tioned for by the people themselves
fcnd the state is but giving them
what they asked for, the governor
said.
Governor McKclvic spoke In
favor of a business manager to ad
minister the affairs of the school
districts which handle large sums
of the people's money, instead or
thrusting that extra burden upon
those whose time is taken up with
the affairs of education.
Vincent C. (Stub) Hascal, chair
man of the April group, was in
charge of yesterday's meeting.

Hilly Woodchuck sat a still as a
mouse and never took his eyes vti
her. It save the Mulry Cow a queer
turn to be look-.'d at so steadily. It
made her fidgu and squirm.
"Well! wrlir h exclaimed.

STARTS TONIGHT
Wbati the matter with yourinc
asked him.
he always crept under the fence and
stole into the field where the clover
grew. And every time he came
back again he looked plumper than
before.
"That clover's not intended for
you.'" the Muley Cow told him at
last. She thought that ought to be
enough to stop him. Hut it made
i.ot the slightest clilTcrcnce. Billy
Woodchuck continued to visit the
clover-patch just as often as ever.
And it seemed to the Muley Cow
that he stayed longer each lime he
went there. '
"Something will have to be done
to keep that Woodchuck boy out of
our clover," she announced to the
rest of th herd. "If we don't stop
bun there II be no nice clover hay
for us next winter.
"Somebody oueht to nut a poke
on hint," said the httle red cow. And
everybody laughed everybody cx
cent the Muley Cow. She saw notlv
ing funny in the suggestion. She
thought it sillv: and she said as
much, too; "Who ever heard of a
Woodchuck wearing a poke about his
neck?"
"Have you told Billy Woodchuck
to keep out of the clover?" one of
the Muley Lows friends inquired.
"I've dropped a hint; but it seems
he can't take a hint," the Muley Cow
replied.
"Then some one will have to speak
plainly to him," the friend said. And
the whole herd told the Muley Cow
that she was the one to do it. because
she was the oldest cow on the farm.
So the next time that Billy Wood
chuck hurried by on his way to the
clover patch, the Muley Cow stood
right in his path and stopped him.
"Go back I" she said severely.
"You mustn't eat any more clover.
You've h.id too muh pf it already."
Billy Woodchuck sat up on his
bind feet and stared hard at the
MuJey Cow. But he said never a
word.
"What's the matter with you?" she
askH him. "Can't you speak when
