Excerpt from Report of the State Board of Education, and State Superintendent of Public Instruction: For the School Year Ending August 31, 1871The inequality of a township school tax is, necessarily, still greater than that of a county school tax, for there is more difference between the wealth Of the poorest and the richest township in the State than there is between the poorest and the richest county. This inequality of taxation is now removed by our State tax. The fundamental principle which underlies our whole system Of public instruction, namely, that property is to be taxed for the support Of schools, is now made general and uniform throughout the State. It is much easier and far more just for the wealthiest county in the State to be taxed one half Of one per cent. More than is apportioned to her as a State tax than it would be to impose upon the poorest county a tax more than three times as great as the wealthiest would be required to pay as a county tax.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
