Members if the legislature, who are meeting in special session to devi - way and means of reducing the tax burden, can get a vivid idea of th app: Ring increase in the cost of government “back home” by glancing at a table compiled from statistics in the leg Native reference bureau. The table shows that county expenditures alone have increased more than four and ,one-half times since
1910.
The constantly mounting cost of government is what has exhausted the people’s capacity to pay taxes, practically ■ onfiscateil the peo-
ple’s property, has paralyzed busi- dentally,
lie-;- and sent thousands into the swelling ranks of the unemployed.
