Exorbitant prices for articles and goods may be exacted and a depreciated price put on the bonds taken. There is probably as much fraud in the exchange of merchandise for bonds as in exchanging stocks or bonds of questionable value for Kovernment securities. If the practice is not discouraged, it will end in a greatly depreciated market for Liberty bonds. The rich and provident will then iosses3 the bonds and the small investor will be long only of experience, with the usual outcry that he has 1jeen exploited.

VOICE "OF

THE nrm PEOPLE

AN OPEN 1I1TER. Editor Times: The report is current anif seems well verified that W. B. Brown and Otto I'iiit :1 1, who own. and control a larg'i i:tnount of bind in Eagle Creek township, have secured a reduction in the appraisal value of their lands for taxation of sime. Fifty-seven thousand (J57,000 dwliirs. The township assessor placed a value, en these lands corresponding to other adjoining tracts and the county board of review passed on these appraisements as rquit.iMe n.rul just. Th; state board Ins raise. 1 the appraisement on personal property in Eagle Creek forty per cent, against the better judgment of both tho township assessor and board of review, and if reports be true, discredited both by making tlii.ii great reducton n favor of Messers Brown and Kirle.Id. Now we who Ret 110 such favors and do no ask anything but a square deal, demand an explanation rf this matter. We ask Mr. Fiilold. the "farmers' representative' ?) in the state legislature, how he obtained this concession

from the state board and to explain why he and Mr. Brown should be relieved from paying their just share of taxes, because v. e know their relief means added burden to others.
