REST TEST THE PROHIBITION Does Increase the Tax Burden Absolute proof is at hand that prohibition has enormously increased the tax burden for the Kansas farmer and property owner. So great is the burden of taxation in prohibition Kansas that half the counties in that state find themselves in serious financial difficulties. HERE IS THE PROOF: (From the Topeka "State Journal" of Dec. 7, 1915) "MUST RAISE LIMIT" 'One-Half of Kansas Counties in Financial Mire" Bond Issues, Economy or Legislative Relief Only Hope" "Fifty per cent of the counties of Kansas will be forced to adopt sweeping economy measures or. issue bonds to cover deficits in their general revenue funds, unless the next legislature raises the limit of the general revenue tax levy, according to men in touch with the financial condition of counties over, the state," The reason for the heavy tax burden under prohibition is not far to seek. Under prohibition, it becomes necessary to prosecute in court every year thousands of persons having alcoholic beverages in their possession. Each such case costs the county about $50, according to the Topeka, Kan. "State Journal" of August 29, 1916. This paper also states in the same issue that in Topeka alone, there are 106 such cases docketed for the September term of court. This is the con dition in one Kansas county, at one term of court alone. Kansas spent $701,944.40 in the last two years to maintain the inmates of her state prisons, while Nebraska spent less than half that sum. WHO CARRIES THE TAX BURDEN? It is interesting to observe how the prohibition politician always mam ages to unload the increased burden of taxation on the farmer and on the. property owner. In Kansas the state tax levy for 1916 is equal to 6.5 mills on a one-fifth valuation, and in Nebraska it is only 6.1 mills on a one-fifth yam ation. In order to deceive the people and keep the state tax levy from mounting sky-high, the prohibition politicians in Kansas simply raised the assessed valuation of farm lands many millions of dollars this year. HERE IS THE PROOF : (From the Topeka "State Journal" of Oct. 5, 1916) "Twice has he ( Governor Capper, the prohibv tionist) handed the ' FARMERS a package, by raising the valuations of their farm land, in order to raise more taxes, yet he permitted the railroads and corporations to go at the same old rate" GOVERNOR CAPPER OF KANSAS HAS PUBLICLY ADMITTED THAT THE VALUATION OF KANSAS PROPERTY WAS BOOSTED $79,000,000 IN 1915 FOR PURPOSES OF TAXATION. THIS IS TYPICAL OF THE PROHIBITION POLITICIAN EVERY WHERE. HE RIDES INTO OFFICE ON THAT ISSUE, AND THEN PROMPTLY PUTS THE BURDEN OF INCREASED TAXATION BROUGHT ABOUT BY PROHIBITION, ON THE . FARMER AND ON THE PROPERTY OWNER. The squares shown below will appear at the TOP of the ballot. An X marked in square 301 is a vote AGAINST PROHIBITION.
