We notice in most of the large city daily papers the advertistaent of a financial institution that is inviting, Ohio money into that state where the tax rates are much lower than in Ohio,.. The industries of Kentucky have a lighter tax rate. Each class of property is taxed according to its ability to earn., Of the entire tax rev­ enues of the state land taxes have been reduced from 70 per cent to 67 Such a condition in a' neighboring state should be a warning to the.tax payers of Ohio. Money driveh from the state by unjust tax laws is against the banks in Ohio and will .in time create a money shortage* ■ I f yw»\»» going w b ^ tf <a$81 sale list your date in our sale column.
