TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTA-

The claim that women are taxed
without representation is unfair.
They do not pay poll tax, which is
the only tax men pay for the right TO
breathe. Property is taxed, no mat
ter who may be It's owner, minor or
alien, male or female. Ii is the pro-
perty that pays the tax, not the indi-
al.-[Los Angeles Times.
Property pays the tax, not the in
dividual." That is what the advisers
OF Charles First told John Hampden
and Oliver Cromwell. Their reply
was that the owner of the property
taxed had by right voice in deciding
how much the tax should be. And by
laying the head OF Charles First upon
the block they established that right.
If the principle thus established was
then right for men IL is now right for

TIE PRISON LABOR CONTRACT.

As heretofore stated the new gov
ernor has refused to carry out con-
tract made by the board Of control,
under his immediate predecessor, by
which the prison labor was contracted
TO a corporation at seventy cents per
day. The lessees OF the labor under
the contract expected to utilize it in
construction OF large irrigation
canal which would reclaim vast area
Of fine land in the vicinity OF Yuma,
and IL the contract is sustained in
court they will do so.
Those in favor OF annuling this con-
tract assert there is a fraud some
where therein. The Star takes up
the cudgels for the contract and as
serts fatty that it will convert the
prison into a self sustaining institu
ton, and that in a little time after
the prison farm is brought under cul-
tiyation, from the canal now projected,
that institution will contribute to the
support of other public institutions,
all of which will benefit the taxpayer
THE OASIS presents the argument Of
the Star as follows:
The Courier Is very much exercised
over the prison labor contract and de-
clares that the territory has been
swindled, because the prisoners have
been leased at 10 cents day, and the
territory is required to feed ,clothe and
guard them. Well what discovery.
The cost OF maintaining the prisoners
per capita per day last year was under
90 cents day, and this includes sala-
ries paid to all officials, guards, etc,
in fact every expense connected with
the maintenance of the institution, as
well as clothing, feeding and guarding
the prisoners, and the contract price
OF this prison labor is 10 cents a day.
That may not be good contract for
politicians, or those who want TO fatten
at the public crib, but it is good con-
tract for the taxpayers. The Star is
prepared to establish by facts, that If
the prison contract Is carried out,
strictly TO the letter, that the terrific
rial prison will be self supporting
within the next six months, and as
soon as the farm Is put under irriga-
tion, that the returns therefrOm will
not only support the prison, but the
asylum and the normal school as well.
The leasing OF the Arizona prison
labor, as per the contract with the
State of Arizona improvement COM
pany means more than the support OF
OF these public institutions by prison
labor: 1t means the construction of
the largest irrigating canal in the
United States, and the reclamation
of more than one hundred thousand
acres OF the most productive land in
Arizona, and the adding to the tax
roll of the territory of more than a
s., coo, coo of assessable property. And
when we come to think of it, this
prison labor has been lying idle for the
last eighteen years. The contract is
all right. 1t is in the interest Of
economy and the taxpayers. and they
will sustain it as will the courts.
