Railroad men, who form such a large factor in American life, are Just waking up to the fact that they -hhve been, or will be, side tracked very neatly and effectively if the hour^-of-service bill reported to tbe House this week is.aliowed to pass. r ha measure .passed the Senate al- •most six weeks ago, and since then the house- committee bas been busy “ perfecting” it. They have per­ fected it with a vengeance. ‘ The bill as it now stands may be a little bet­ ter than ho legislation at all, but the railroad men are doubtful. The fact is tliat'there has been almost as warm a fight over the bill in 'com­ mittee as there was over the railway rate bill. The railroads themselves have had a powerful lobby in Wash­ ington against it, .almost the. same lobby m fact that fought the rate bill. The- railroad -workmen did about the best they could under the circumstances,, but compared to their employers they are sad ama­ teurs, ’ ' The things that have been done to the bill are manifold, but one o f the most vaoldiis has been changing the period by which the hours of labor ate measured from 24 fo 86, whioh change allows men to be worked about 23 hours at a stretch it there be a Short interval of rest. This is just about what the railroads are doing now with their men, and the bill as it has beep amended m the committee would allow them to .keep up their r ,aiar practice with the appearance of having made con­ cessions, - ^ This is a matter inwhich the pub­ lic is more vitally interested than are the railroad men, for there are more of the traveling public than there are of the train crews, and they arc equally Jeopardized when -the train crews aro overworked* A recontittsfonce nan be taken in- the investigation by the interstate Com­ merce Commission foilowiug the disastrous wreck on the Baltimore and Ohio at.Terra Cotta D, C. The attorney for the Commission col­ lected a lot of time slips from the railroad showing the hours that the various train crews had been on du­ ty, These records showed that 1C hours was rather a short days work and in a great many cases the ereWs have been kept on duty for 26and 23 hours at a stretch for several days, while there were extreme case of their having worked SOhours. This was not though the hardship were merely on the man. They Were the woraore on whom the lives and safe­ ty of the traveling public depended. The Object of the ” haur&-of-serviee bill” was to restrict the working period o f the train crews so as to conserve the safety of the public, but this the measure does not do in Its ainended-shapo. I f it is allowed to go through, it will be owing to the Indifference of the public, Lhrig Jump ef Kangaroo.

Too Many Constitutional Provisions Work Injury—Special Taxes Breed Extravagance, Perhaps no single individual knows more about the taxation evils of the- Several states than Mr, Lawson Pur­ dy, president of the Department of Taxes and Assessments of the city of New York. Mr. Purdy has given the subject of taxation a lifetime of study. In discussing “Improved Tax Laws, for Ohio/’ Mr. Purdy said: ‘‘Prom an economic standpoint the general property tax for state' pur­ poses, although an exceedingly crude plan, worked fairly well under such conditions as prevailed in Ohio in 1851, when the constitution was adopted. Then there were no rail­ roads and practically no other public service corporations, no great fran­ chise values, comparatively little and other paper evidences of the own­ ership of things or of an interest in things- The urban population was a comparatively- small factor, in state affairs and city problems had assumed little relative importance. With the growth of cities and the great in­ crease in tbe value of urban land, the distribution of the state burden under the general property tax become more and more unjust,. In a primitive com­ munity, as In the poorer rural coun­ ties today, land has very little value, and the property interests of those communities are chiefly In personal property and improvements on land, “When all state revenue- is obtained frCm special taxe3 laid at unvarying rates, there is no elasticity, and no way in which the revenue can be ad­ justed to the needs. This breeds ex-, travagance, to which '-tlie- recent'-'ex- penditure of $9,000,000 on decorating and furnishing the state capitol of Pennsylvania is a witness. “During the last 12 years in the state of New York we have ^iad an extensive experience with wTfat hap­ pens when an attempt is made to ob­ tain' all state revenue by special taxes. In 1894 New York still relied mainly for state revenue upon the gene al property tax. In that year the total There is much.agitation in Xenia township over the centralization of the schools of certain' districts. A vote may be necessary.

In J90G the state revenue ex­ ceeded $27,000,000, all of it from spe­ cial taxes. Now, plans are being made for increasing the state revenue to $35,000,000,. and it- seems probable that that amount will be needed; this means an irferease in the expenditure almost three times as great a3 it was 12 years ago. “Constitutions are taken off the shelf and dusted when the minority wants to overrule the popular will. Everything about taxation in a consti­ tution Is dangerous. The law reports are full of cases brought to prevent the collection of taxes on the ground of their- consUtutfnality Under such constitutions as that of Ohio. Where a state constitution is silent as to taxa­ tion, only the Federal Constitution mu3t he obeyed. Perhaps few per­ sons realize the adequacy of the Con­ stitution of the United States to guar­ antee our fundamental rights. Those rights should be protected by a con­ stitution, hut when a consututional convention attempts to Impose its no­ tions of taxation upon the present and succeeding generations It commits an Impertinence if not a crime, Tho Fed­ eral Constitution protects citizens of other states from the unequal taxation of their property or business by any state; prevents Interference with in­ terstate commerce; prohibits the tax­ ation by a state of property outside the jurisdiction of the state and re­ strains all stated from taxing one per­ son more than another under like cir­ cumstances. ~ How can men deslro greater protection from themselves, “The provisions of the Constitution of Ohio relating to taxation were n- dopted in 1851, at a tim'o when it be­ gan to be the fashion to put whole codes of laws into the constitution “The Ohio Constitution Is so bad that any thought and effort now expended on improving tiro tax sys­ tem vt Ohio without amending its Constitution is praciially wasted You aro tied down to a theory aban­ doned everywhere else in the world, and proven here in the United states by over a century of experience to bo the most debauching, oppressive and stupid theory that was ever devised. The Constitution of Ohio declares that all real and. personal property shall be taxed by a uniform rule at Its true value in money. It provides Arule which is utterly and absolutely .inpoasiblo to enforce, and which if it Amid be enforced would produce the most abominable Injustice that was iver perpetrated."
