"WILLIAM OF HIGH TAXES"
HE WAS RIGHTLY NAMED
CU7ItLIAJ4 VOW HOHENZOLLERN" literally translated
W nau "William of High Taxes." And he is cost
ing the world a pretty penny.
His family dates back to the Middle Ages and acquired
its name by squatting by the high road and demanding
taxes or "xolkn" from the passers by for the privilege of
going on and Bring. Commuted robbery of this hind was
common enough in medieval times. The robber baron was
the leading dtiien of that day; the world then conld not
proceed without Mm William Hoheniollern's family did
not invent this way of making a living, they simply bnilt
up the idea into fortune and kingship.
Is those middle ages everywhere a man was weak or
industrious at his own risk. The robber barons got him
either way.
The HohenzoUems were a thrifty rising family, set in
their ways and they kept on amassing unearned increment
in the same old way, each generation adding something to
the family's taxable area. From little robber barons they
became margraves of Brandenburg and then by steady accu
mulation of taxes on everything they could reach, they
accumulated to the kingdom of Prussia and finally to the
holding of the empire of Germany and a place in the sun.
They have not always been popular witn tneir neignoors
whose landmarks they removed and ireaenck set tie woria
afire when he stole Silesia from Marie Theresa of 'Austria.
Macanlay says that Frederick's piratical proclivities
made "black men fight on the coast of Corcmandel and red
nun scalp each other on the plains of Abraham." Some
inflammation of the world then.
Current rumor has it, and perhaps not unjustly, that
one of the causes of this war was that the crown pnnce re
proached his father with being the first of the Hohenzol
lems who bad added nothing to the taxable interests of the
family.
Anyhow when an Austrian archduke was murdered at
Sarajevo William thriftily took opportunity to appropriate
Belgium and Luxemburg, for their size the richest coun
tries in Europe and replete with taxable resources. Also
he took northern France in which all the French coal and
iron industries are concentrated, thereby rectifying a mis
take Bismarck made in leaving the biggest iron deposit of
the Briey basin en the French side of the Lorraine frontier.
William would have taken more but that was all he
could get at the time. Later he did take to himself Rus
sia's manufacturing district, Russian Poland, and still later
the very rich little Rumania At Brest-Litovsk he took
more and incidentally handed over Russia's oil fields at
Baku to Turkey for safe keeping. The family taste for
taxable assets was not to be denied.
Our present job is to oust WflHam, and put a stop to his
tax gathering proclivities outside of Germany for the very
good and sufficient reason, if for no other, that we in our
turn would have to be paying tolls to the Hohenzollem, the J
high taxer, if he were sot checked. That German imperial !
ambition includes the united States, there is no doubt.
And we have always had and cherished the privilege of
choosing our tax collectors rather than allowing any or all
tax collectors to choose us because we look good picking.
Whether or no, however we will an have to pay high
taxes for the rest of our lives and our children after ns
will have to pay higher taxes, because of this Hoheniollern's
yearning tor taxes and more taxes.
But we won't pay them to William.
It will be long years before rife can become again so
simple, so easy and above all so cheap as it was before
this last of the German Imperial High tax collectors started
to increase his taxpayer lists. The rest of the world will
have to pay big taxes to be rid of this collector of the
highest taxes men and women and nations can pay, but
the winning of this war k worth it to all men and women
and nations.
We are spending money with both hands and win prob
ably use a scoop before we are through. In war it is
cheaper to be lavish than economical. But some day all
this money most be paid and we will pay it. When we
borrow a billion dollars en a Liberty Loan and we have
borrowed several billions and will borrow more we have
borrowed about $10 per head since we have about 100,000,
000 people; or say we borrow $50 per family. The inter
est on a billion dollars at four and a half percent is $45,-
000,000 a week. That is every person in the country will
have to pay somewhat less than ten cents a week on this
tnlhon dollar loan. And he will pay it
However congress may apportion taxes the costs will
be distributed among us all, for, if all the taxes were 'put on
the railroads, for example, the railroads would have to add
it to fares and freight, if.it were all pat on the farmers,
they would have to put up the price of wheat and batter
and cheese and eggs proportionately.
Whatever it costs any business to do business, including
its taxes, must be distributed among the customers.
So we will all pay and pay high because of WilHam
of the High Taxes'; ambition. It is sot one billion but many
bilUpns and not one ten cents a week but many. We will
have to pay all we can stand in the way of taxation, but
it will be for the liberty of our own flag and for the world's
flags for liberty and not to William who else would pursue
his medieval way and stand by our every little roadside
and lane and comfortably to himself tax us to the last
penny we could make on our wheat or sheep or little stores,
big stores or little wits or big wits or whatever we had to
make our living by.
And the more we spend now and the quicker we spend
it, the sooner we can win the war and the cheaper will be
the price of freedom from this High laser's encroachments.
It would be poor economy to spare the cost now. We do
not want to buy an inconclusive peace with'our good hard
earned money. An inconclusive peace would simply add the
continual expense of the biggest military and naval estab
lishment in the world to the war debt we are accumulating.
If Hohenzollem ambition should go nnscotched, in ordinary
self defence we would have to make and keep our army
bigger than any Germany could establish with the aid of
Austria and perhaps Russia, with a navy of similar colossal
scale.
With a conclusive peace, with this war won as Araeri
cans win a fight to the end and finally, we can get along
in the world with a reasonable army and navy, we won t
have to be always measuring colossal fighting power with
colossal fighting power but can then go about our ways,
paying the debts we have incurred and not begrudge the
price for an idea we hold of liberty and freedom for our
selves and for all men who wish it, and with a conclusive
peace, with this war won right, can securely build our way
back to ordinary peace, quiet, and easygoing days.
This generation and the next have reason to think that
William Hohenzollem, William of the High Taxes was
rightly named.
When A Feller Needs A Friend
Gambling With Death
SEEING boys and older men climb through or over freight
trains at the Stanton and Oregon street crossings rather
than wait for the trains to pass makes one think of the
recklessness of people who chance the loss of life or at
least very serious injury in order to avoid a wait of a
few minutes. It's gambling one life's against a fraction of
time. Too often, here, the gambler has lost.
There was the case, too, of Thomas Beach, a boy ten
years old living at Marfa, Texas, who was killed on August
1 as a result of "hopping a freight train." Whatever his
motive, whether "for fun" or for some other reason, there
is no consolation now for his relatives.
It is an unfortunate fact that many people fail to profit
from the experience of others and this is not confined to
children but is a common condition among persons ot all
ages and it is true also that thoughtlessness and careless
ness on the part of individuals have frequently caused the
loss of life or limb when a moment's reflection might have
saved the victim from injury.
Railroad crossings, station yards and tracks are never
free from the element of danger to vehicles, their occu
pants and to pedestrians and the fact that thousands tres
pass upon them without injury does not lessen the average
of danger which the situation always contains.
From the earliest days of childhood people need to be
urged, through every medium available, to regard railway
crossings as dangerous and nevemnder any circumstances
to run the risk of accident.
To gamble with "death in order to save a minute is
placing too lew a valuation on any life.

their marital track and gather la the plunder, while Turkish statesmen hold the
