Why Single Out the Corpora*
ations?
The State Board of Tax Asses¬
sors is generally commended.
The people demand equitable re¬
turns from the corporations.—
.Savannah Press.
To be sure. But why single
out the corporations. Why not
demand equitable returns from
all tax payers alike?
Why have a state board o f as¬
sessors to make the corporations
toe the line, and leave the indi¬
vidual free to pay the state what¬
ever he may happen to feel like
paying as his part of the tax bur¬
den?
Frankly, there is getting to be
entirely too much of this sort of
thing. There are any number of
people in Georgia—some of them
have managed to break into the
legislature; mainly on that issue,
too—who seem to proceed on the
idea ihat the corporations ought
to support the state government.
— Augusta Chronicle.
The Chronicle’s point is well
taken. The Observer is not a
railroad organ and not in sym¬
pathy with any dodging, stealing,
lobbying or political tricks on the
roads; but it believes in fair play.
We believe the railroads return
their property at less than its
real value, but at the same time
know that individuals do the same
thing. A board cf assessors
a good thing and will pay better
than any state department,
it will only have begun its work
when it assesses the railroads,
Tnousaads of big individual
property owners will continue to
ke ep their property otf the tax
books as they have always done.
Class legislation that operates
against the railroads can do the
state no good in the long run.
Better make the law general in
its operation. It can hurt no orre,
but will be a step that should
have been taken several years
ago.—Moultrie Observer.
The above suggestions are all
right, but if all the tax receivers
of the state were as conscientious
of their obligati;ns as Mr. Ak
ridgo, of Mitchell, the assessors
would have very little to do. Mr.
Abridge knows pretty well what
valuations are on property in his
county and he refuses to receive
the returns unless they ar^ given
in at a fair marketable valuation.
Where to Meet Your Friends.
The building to be known as
Art Hall, at the coming State
Fair, will be a novel structure. It
is to be circular in shape, one
hundred feet in diameter, and two
stories in height. The floor is
paved with brick and cement,
and altogether will bo made fire¬
proof. There will be a fountain
in the center, surrounded with
plants and flowers. The articles
forming the art exhibit wi 1 be
hung on the walls, thereby guar¬
anteeing advantage to all exhibi¬
tors in this class.
It will be the meeting point and
resting place during the Fair.
'‘Meet me at the art hall” will be
as familiar as “meet me at the
big State Fair.” Filled with art
exhibits, music, flowers, foun¬
tains and Georgia girls, it will be
well -worth a journey to Macon to
see.
Eighteen Thousand Dollars in
premiums for agricultural exhib¬
its alone, plenty of music, all the
shows and amusements that can
be gathered together,- racing and
every attraction, the big fair at
Macon, October 19-28, will be the
biggest and best of all the fairs.
