The Officials and the People...
The people as a wholo appear to have been remarkably willing that the gambling lauses should be closed down, but they are evidently much opposed, to the officials looking to the wine and¬ spirit trade in order to secure tho necessary amount to make up for the consequent depletion in the I'rovingini coffors. Probably they are conscious of the fact that they ara continually being "squeezed," and this may be the explanation of their decision to rosist now taxa- tion, even though they may have beon relieved in other directions. Without doubt, a great deal of the existing discontent in Obina to- day has its origin in that the people have no voice in such. matters as the proportion or in- |11|cidence of taxation.
