A Mortgage Tax Law T)ur good friend Judge Dun bsrr is • strong advocate of a moi'gage tax law—a law that will lux the mortgage instead of the real estate on which the mortgage is fastened. This has been a Jong mooted question, but so far the mortge ora have the legislators with they and hence the morgage con tinues immune from taxation. There are different angles to the question, but it certainly doesn’t look right to tax a man or. something he doesn't own. If there’s a mortgage on the farm of $5,000 it is evident there is $5,000 worth of that farm the man doesn’t own, and the man who does own tbe $5,000 part of it ought to pay the taxes on that part of the land. On the other band, the man may owe debts to the value of $5,000 unsecured by mortgage, say to 100 different men; and in this case it would be hard to ex empt him and make the other fellers pay the taxes, when the chances are they may get wbr.t’s coming to them, or may get nothing. The argument, however, that the interests rates would be raised just that much we don’t think is germaine. Tl.e same argument was used against the income tax, and would actually apply to any industry, as. if vou were to tax them the’d just add it to the price of what they had to sell, etc., etc. In the ease of a mortgage, the question of doubt does not apply as to possible payment, and as the evidence of debt is tangible we believe the mortgageor should pay the tax on ao much of the faun value. Scope and Purpose Advertising, in the modern: general acceptation of the word,; is means of causing it to be pub- i licity known what service each i of us can render ; or what wanta we can Batiafy. and the convinc ing reason why it is worth while to take advantage of that ser vice. It is also the art of impressing on tbe public the name, nature and use of some commodity. It may go so far as to create a went for that commodity, stimu : late the buying, and inspire ira ■ mediate action therein, and once [ the want ia created, to keep alive ’ the feeling of ita need.
