Every possible effort is being made in the Stale House to force through je tlie bill to take from the counties, dis- i Iriets and ci'.ir five per cent of their a taxes collected from the public:carpor-■ e alions and turn it over to the depleted , r state fund. There is no doubt about!* the dangerous emptiness of tlie general a state fund, arid nothing that can be 1 J thought of will bt left undone by the!** I o maenme to increase its revenues so as j to avoid increasing tlie direct state \ tax. t The taking off of the state tax was j ^ followed by an irnpeading deficit of! huge proportions, ami if other sources i al' income can be worked ©lit to recoup j the los es mat resulted trum the low ering of litis tax it will he done.

The new license law raises the sa loon licen; e to ft,(WO a year with the pro' Ue that no municipal corporation shall Impose a greater license tax than tlie state imposes. The promise, long deferred, to give tlie people an efficient primary election law may bo fullilled. Three suen measures lihve been introduced.
