Morris, candidate for tho Republican nomination Tor governor, accompanied by Jesse M. Cannon, of Salt Lako City, was in Logan 'es-terday.

Mr. Morris hag been making a tour of the different counties of the state In the Interest of his candidacy and upon returning from some of tho leading counties south of Salt Lako City, says he Hnds a very friendly feeling manifest In his behalf and many leAdlng Republicans are taking an interest In his campaign. Tho people of Utah know where Mr, Morris stands on the liquor question. It was he who led tho fight for prohibition In 1909 and he has talked It on a good many occasions since that time." When asked how ho felt on this all important question, ho called attention to a statement made In tho state press a few days ago which Is ns follows- "That ray position might bo clearly understood by all who linvo any doubt upon tho matter, permit me to say that I am not a recent convert to tho cnuso of statewide prohibition. Mv conversion to it was not, brought about by political expediency, nor Is my advocacy of It merely to meet a campaign emergency.

On the contrary, I have been a firm believer In state wide prohibition for many years and for about eight years have worked for It, fought for it, and believe In It more strongly today than over. "I am tor state wldo prohibition and hopo to contrlbuto my full Bharo to the consummation ot tho work wo undertook In this stnte In 1909." MR. GHRISTENSEN BACK FROM HIS EASTERN TRIP Mr. C. M.

Christensen, manager of tho Spando Furniture Company, Is back from his eastern furniture purch aslng trip. He has had a most pleasant aud profitable trip although It has been prettyijhot In Chicago and other places. "IfVJne really wants to know how to appreciate our Cache Valley cllraato during tho Bummer months," said Mr. Christensen, "they should take a trip to Chicago where It 100 degrees In the shade. People aro actually suffering on account of the heat." Ho'reports that tho crops tho Mississippi Valley are very good.

In Wyoming they aro very poor, owing to tho drouth. There is not much stir about politics. Whllo there Is good business, It seems to bo an abnormal business condition, according to Mr. Christensen. It seems to bo a forcod 'prosperity brought on becauso of tho war.

While everybody Is rejoicing over these conditions, they are wondorlug what will bo tho result when the war Is over, and the adjustment comes. Labor Is getting about a. third bet-ter wages now than a year ago and ovorybody is busy. Factories aro behind in their orders. Prompt deliveries are next to impossible.

Thore has been no great advance In the price of furniture and as a result, some exceptional bargains were secured by Mr. Christensen, 4. 4. $. 4.

All citizens expect and deslro to do their shnro towards tiio maintenance, of tho government of tho State, nnd are not so much concerned as to valuations nnd tax levies ns thoy aro concerned In the matter of equalization and ecultnble adjust' uiunts between all property owners In Hie Stato. Tli a Stato of Utah at present sends out 27 assessors nnd lunumcniblo deputies, each a law unto himself, without system, method or Instruction, under a law demanding assessment ut full value, the practical result being unequal undervaluations In almost overy County of the Stuto. This system can not be expected to pioduco other than Inconsistent and Inequitable results. Thou wo havo thd County Hoard of Equalization, thrco members In each county, together with a Stnte Hoard ot Equalization consisting of four members appointed by tlfu governor, to correct tho Inequalities brought Into existence, thru tho work of tho assessors It would nppenr that vo have' sufficient machinery to accomplish fair aud equitable equalization of the property I ho State, but tho great school ot oxperlcnco has conclusively proven ihat It does not. Ot the officials nbovo mentioned, IJ10 27 assPssorB nro elected by tho lieoplu.

Threo commissioners from I'nch county, a total of 31 commissioners throughout tho Stato aro also elected by the peoplo. Tho four uiombers of tho Board ot Equalization are appointed by tho governor. Tho three Commissioners In each county havo power to equalize taxes within tho county as to Individuals and can ralso or lower tho work ot tho assessor and his deputies. Tho State Board of Equalization nsldo from specific duties In the matter of assessment of railroads and other Inter-county public utility corporations, nro ompowered with the right to equalize as hotwpon counties, but have no Jurisdiction whatever as to Individual assessments and no supervision whatever over tho work of tho assessors. Tho latest report of tho pros-ent Board of Equalization, that of tho year 1914 gives a total valuation of all property assessed at 1221,720,400, out of which was assessed by tho 27 assessors of the Stato nnd their deputies and equalized by the respective County Hoards and tho Stato Board ot Equalization, and tho remaining 154,049,213 was assessed by tho Stnte Board of Equalization, without recourse as to further equalization.

In other words, four men appointed by one man assess and equalize ono fourth of the entire valuation of tho Stato, whllo the other throe-fourths Is assessed and equalized by 21 assessors and 81 commissioners, a total ot 118, all elected by the peoplo nnd Is then subjected to further equalization by four men appointed by one man. It Is not my purpose to Imputo nny dereliction of duty to tho State Board of Equalization, tho assessors, or the commissioners. Undoubtedly thoy linvo all dono the best they can, and undoubtedly much ground has been pained year by yenr, but the question Is, has tho most possible been done, nnd nro our methods the that can bo adopted! One thing certain wo have a very unequal and unjust equalization ot property throughout tho Stato, and It Is for the accomplish-ment of an equal and Just equalization that this artlclo Is written. A great many of tho States now havo permanent tax commissions. In somo States they supplant the old Board of Equalization, In others Ihey aro In addition thereto, and havo certain defined duties.

In many ot our neighboring States, Hoards of Equalization or Tax Commissioners are mado up ot officials elected by tho peoplo, such as tho Govornor, Secro-tnry of State, Stato Treasurer, Auditor, Attorney General, etc. In tho State of Washington tho Stnte Board of Equalization Is composod of the Stnto Auditor tho Commissioner of Public Lands, and ono momber of tho public servlco commission who appointed by the Governor. Thu StaU'cf Ordgon has a to, commission consisting of Oovernor, Secretary of Slato, Stato Treasuror, and two tax commissioners appointed Jointly by the threo officials Just named. Thu Stato of California has a Stato fl Board ot Equalization, consisting ot on6 member from each Congressional District in tho State, elected by thu peoplo for a torm of four years. Call- fornla has given much tlmo and study afj to the tax question and hns complied fafj an Interesting and Instructive volume on rovenuo, giving niAny citations from decisions of the Supremo Court 3 aud Appellate Courts affecting njve- HbfJ mio laws.

In California tho comma- 0M tatcd systom ot taxation prevails. Tho laB Stato Is maintained entirely from tax- tM atlon of corporations. For tho past jjgS (Ivo years tho common forms of prop- 11 erty, such as real estate, Improve- pients, have not been cnlled upon jo contribute 0110 cent to maintain tho fafj Stato. This form of property1 Is taxed IH entirely by tho counties aud local HB municipalities. BB It appears to mo that Utah will Bl make progress by creating a Stnto Tax Commission, dividing tho Stato Hj Into four districts and electing tho members thereof by tho people.

Tho ftffl Commission should bo given general supervision over County Assessors Ith power to prescrlbo rules of 'on- Bfl eratlon, to Insist upon uniform meth- eds of assessment, nnd to exact stan- dards of efficiency that will Insure of- fl tlclent work. Somo method should be devised whereby an individual can Bfl make an appeal to the commission dl- rect or through a Board of County Equalizers In all matters effecting his BBJ Individual taxes, together with such other powors as may bo deemed right BBJ and proper, It Is not to be presumed that tho Governor has not, and that tuture Govornor will not appoint good' men, BE but where Is tho consistency In elect- lng a Secretary ot State and a Stato Auditor whojo duties nro more or less clerical, and an Attorney Goner- nl whoso duty Is more or Hess advls- ory, and a Stato Treasurer whoso du- MM ty Is clerical and In tho capacity of a custodian, whllo the four men who BBJ havo tho right and power to pass on $221,000,000 of tho people's property, who aro absolute In the assessment BBJ of ono fourth of the property of the Ha Stato and who can ralso or lower the VI valuations of the other three fourths HI at will, aro appointed by the Governor KB of the State. Does It not appear con- Q'l slstent and right tbat men endowed Raj with such powers and who have the IS handling ot the very life and broath ot the Stato should run the gauntlet mM of the people. It would certainly, op- KM pear that If there are any officials ex- IM ceptlng United States Senators Con- IS gressmen and the Governor, that KM should be elected by the people, It certainly is the State Board of'Equal- izatlon or members of a State 'Tax 9 Commission, 9 8eourd a Church.
