Senator Walton's Tasation Scheme.
Senator Walton, of Greene county, has
worked out a bill to reduce tax on real os
tate by making properties now taxable
only for state purposes subject to looal
taxation, except school buildings. He has
also prepared an act changing the system
of paying the officials of Greene county.
The senator's scheme is to pay them a
fixed salary, with a reasonable sum for
expenses, and require the fees of office to
be covered into the county treasury.
The rural members are quietly organiz-
ing to prevent the proposed reduction in
the school appropriation. An informal
meeting will be held during the week to
outline a plan of action. William C. Smith,
of Bedford, who led the fight in the house
two years ago for a ¢hange in the system
of distributing the school fund, is » lead-
He will not
agree to any bill which gives less than
$5,500,000 to the schools. The countrymen
will also try to pass an act giving £00,000
| for township high schools.
“There should be no thought of spend.
tug millions of dollars for a new Capitol,”
sald Mr Smith, “a half million erected
| the large executive and library building,
and that sum ought to be sufficient for a
now state house. To rob the people In
thes: hard times to bulld a gorgeous state
house would be a crime that will not be
excused by the voters.”
