Nothing To Be Proud Of.
Fairbanks papers are going into
ecgtaeies over the fact that the!
town has been conducted for tlie!
past year without levying a prop
erty tax. Why tlie people should
be proud of the condition of affairs
there is incomprehensible. The
money, apart from licenses, used
for the running expenses of the
town, has been collected entirely
from the spurting class by a svsteni
of tines. Every game in operation
lus to pay a monthly tax and the
sporting element arc assessed a
heavy per capita tax. The town is
supported by licenses collected
from prostitutes ami gamblers.
This method of raising money is
so obnoxious to tlie average person
that one would think the people of
Fairbanks would say as little as
possible about it.
