This would give $4,000 a mile with which to build roads and a pretty good road can be builded for that sum in any portion of Missouri, while in some sections of the state nothing like so rtwh would be needed. If some such pui.cy as this were adopted and continued for a few years Missouri would soon have the best roads in the country.

And there is no reason why we should not do so. We have the wealth and could do it without burdening ourselves in the least. Before the policy would be three years old we would find the people howling to have the annual expenditures made larger. The state ought to help in this road building proposition and to begin doing it at once. St.

If Senator Stone is not careful he will be in danger of losing votes of those of bis former admirers who believe in taking their whiskey straight. Perhaps Senator Stone's demand for more water with his Scotch whiskey was in the nature of a concession to the growing temperance sentiment in Missouri.

St. Joseph Gazette. PRAISELET. esenptive sons recounting the perils of In a recent editorial utterance in The Outlook magazine ex-President Roosevelt makes another plea for an inheritance tax. His position on this subject is and has been well known and it must be admitted that those who are urging this tax make a much stronger showing in their efforts to justify it than do the advocates of an income tax.

Mr. Roosevelt asserts that when a great fortune comes to an individual in return for service rendered it should bring with it the respect of the community and in the enjoyment of that wealth he should be accorded every possible protection. When it comes to the inheritance of that wealth by one who never did anything to earn it, who has rendered no distinct service to the state or to the community insreturn therefor, however an entirely different situation is presented. And, it is from inherited wealth as a general proposition, that arise the bulk of dangers to society which grow out of great fortunes. In view of this fact the ex-president favors a tax that will compel those who are made rich by inheritance to contribute in proportionate degree to the support and maintenance of the government under which they live and which protects them in the right to receive and hold wealth earned by another.

And the more one considers the inheritance tax proposition the more firmly is one convinced that Mr. Roosevelt is right in his conclusions. Take, for instance, the fortune accumulated by the late Marshall Field, which was left intact for the benefit of two grandsons, neither of whom had anything whatever to do with its accumulation. If, however, those two boys live until they are forty (Estherville, Iowa Democrat, July 21) "Of all the lectures of the Chautauqua week, the first one, that of Ex-Con BIGGERSTAFF'S STUDIO ON MONDAY EACH OF WEEK.

In the industrials the prices reflect confidence in the future as much, Neither of them will be able to spend anything like the interest on his hold-dings in any sort of rational living, while his control of so much wealth may make him a danger rather than a bleesing to society at large. Mr. Field accumulated a large fortune by reason of the advantages and opportunities afforded him under our government and the wealth thus accumulated, after he ceased to use it, should contribute in just degree to the support of the government under which its accumulation was made possible.

No such argument as this can be advanced in favor of an income tax and many men who favor the one form of taxation will oppose the other.
