The unsuce committee had a henna;
at Hartford yesterday afternoon on a

bill which provides that the ordinary ‘

commutation taxes shall no longer be
‘Icolicoted by the towns, but that the
collection shall be made by officers up

principal advocate of the bill was the
Hon. CyrusG Beokwlth of New Vlaon

liable on a military subject. 7

:ln recent years there had‘ grown up
a system for which no p‘amy nor per-
son is Ics‘ponslhie. a sort oil delinquen-
cy in collecting" this tax. It can only, be
accounted for either by carelessness or
cowardice, many collectors not wishing
to bother wi the small amounts and
not wishing cause personal offense
to their neighbors, and thereby joepao
dlzlng‘thelr own chances of continuing
to hold the same office In the future.
At this time not one~tenth of the tax
is paid except by those paying property
tax, and they having to pay the whole
tax not paid by these against whom it
is assessed.

Every town once each yeafI‘ has to
pay to the treasurol of the state 82 per
head as a military commutation tax
for each person subject to do militnr
duty and not exempted for cause. This
sum, In nearly every town, is far in
excerpt of the amountIeollocted For in-
stance. new: Haven pays annually over
$20, 000 more than is collected. Hart-
ford own 313 000, Bridgeport over 818,-
000. Merideu over $6. 000. The propor-
tion In about the same throughout the
state.

The state being the sole beneficiary
of this tax. the state should collect it.
Each town is compelled every year to
make an appropriation for the pur-
pose of making out a military enroll-
ment. The state receives every dollar
oi this money. and It is unfair thattho
towns should bo‘compolledto be at the
expense of making the enrollment.

A conference of the mayors of soy.
and of the larger cities was hold at
the capitol and voted to urge the to
