Tax equity debate and Roosevelts convention stance
Senator Hulings urges investigation of Pennsylvania’s tax system arguing real estate bears the burden while corporations pay far less. He calls for a commission to reform taxes. Theodore Roosevelt is expected to control the next Republican National Convention, with nominees pledged to regulate corporations. Pennsylvania and Reading railroads oppose a two cent fare law, while rail service faces scrutiny. The postal card issue prompts caution, and farm production is highlighted as a steady income.
