The Watchman and the China
Crore Becord wish their readers a
their erery proper desire be abun
dantly fulfilled.
Down in Louisiana where they hare
a law to prerent people wearing
truiVti, they were forced to wink at
old Santa's appearance all dressed
up in his false face, whiskers and
furtrimmed garments. We suppose
the hallowe'cn maaqoeraders will
also be permitted to get by with
their outfits, and then there is the
snardl graa. The good books says
the rain falls on the jost and unjust,
and most people expect laws to act
ta a similar fashion, bat here we hare
a law as flexible as an old shoe.
The trouble Is this does not seem to
be the only law that baa considers
bie flexibility about it, especially if
the defendant happens to hare a good

PLAIN TALK ABOUT TAXES.
The Erenlng Journal at Lewiston,
Maine, aays; "America is staggering
under increasing tax burdens. We
are old that the tax in certain plains
towns lsried against farm property
is aa high aa 7 per cent on the Tal
uation. And the valuation, although
low as to sales. Is not low as applied
to the general values of. property in
the towns aa they average.
"Pan! Shdup, talking in California.
to the California Bankers Associa
tion, depicts the conditions in that
state and they are not dissimilar to
those in all other states. Mr. Shoup
says:
M 'In 1923, the taxpayers In Cali
fornia paid, over - $500,000,000 in
texts, three, times as much aa in
1912. The cost of county govern
ment in California has Increased
fourteenfold in 21 years. The debts
outstanding against county govern
ments, in California were about $SJ
600,000 twenty-one years ago.. Now
We notice that the PEOPLE in a
South Carolina community are
threatening to oust a sehool board
because it does not function as the
PEOPLE want it to function. We
wonder if that can be a pointer to I they are over $170,000,000. "or 80

There will be plenty of time to do
this, but of course no steps along
this line should be taken until more
agreeable methods have been ex
hausted. Salisburians are entirely
ritila their rights when they de
mand that this school for which they
