PREPARING THE BUDGET
Finance Board Wields It's Axe on
the Estimates.

The Finance Board is now at work over
the budget and a great deal of scaling
will be done in the next few days on the
estimates furnished by the various
boards. In round numbers they ask for
$1,350,000 and the pairing process will re-
duce that by one-half.
The Commissioners would like tt give
each just what it asks were it not for
the fact that the tax rate must not be
increased or the taxpayer will kick. In
some instances the amounts asked are
for extraordinary demands as in the case
of the Police and Fire Boards and these
will be granted.

IMPORTANT WORK.

Important work will be cut out
for the next territorial legislature.
The preliminaries to statehood will
have to be settled, reform of the rev.
enues is a crying need, and the min
ing and irrigation laws will call for
amendment. 1t is not beyond the
range of possibility that the legis-
lature elected this year will be called
upon to select The first United States
senators from Arizona.
In view Of these facts the Repub-
licans should make a mighty effort
to gain control of the legislature,
and in order to do this and to ret ain
the position gained the best men in
the party should be selected for the
Legislative positions. To go to the
territorial legislature nearly always
involves financial loss to the honest
man, but present conditions are
such as to demand sacrifice of per
sonal interests to the public good
aud the ARGUS trusts the right can
didates will be found in Navajo
county for these important places.

Proxies will be recognized only when pre-
scented by a voter who is resident of the
county from which the same is issued.
All railroads have been asked to make a
reduced rate for this convention SO if no such

arranged at Phoenix for returning free.

desired, well as the presence of represent
ative Republicans from every part of the
territory.

UNEQUAL TAXATION.

The territorial tax levy for the
year 1850 is 50 cents on each 500 of
assessed valuation, being the same
as in 1899. The amount realized
from this levy will barely suffice to
pay the expenses of the territorial
government Ano, her fact that is
quite apparent is that the burden of
taxation all over the territory is
borne by the farmers and stockmen.
Arizona's greatest riches line in
her mines. A reference to another
column of the ARGUS will give some
valuable and pregnant facts on the
value of the mining industry. The
single mine owned by the United
Verde company at Jerome could not
be bought today for the number Of
gold dollars repre- resented by the as
sessed valuation of all the property
in the territory. And this is onl y an
iilust ration. There are many lore
rich mines in Arizona which, assessed
at their full value, as are horses,
cattle, sheep and agricultural lands,
would bring the total of Arizona's
taxable property up to $l5O,00O,OOO.
This would be nearly FIVE times as
much as at present.
A bullion tax has been suggested
rs the remedy for this unjust and
unequal taxation. This subject
should be discussed and settled in
the coming campaign. We do not

is the solution of the problem. We

pie of honor. When the senator ex-
presses fear that the peoples desire

FARMERS TELEPHONES.

A Wisconsin farmer writes to the
Farm Journal as follows:
After reading ''Post-oftice On
Wheels" in March Farm Journal, l
would like to say few words about
farmers telephones. We have about
seventy-five phones, all built and
owned by farmers, in the western part
of this, Fond du Lac county, Wis.,,
all of which are in good working order
and giving excellent satisfaction. We
find it to be a great help to US in more
ways than we expected, and when it
comes to getting doctor, or any as
sistance that is wanted in a hurry, it
is just the thing.
Our lines run from one city, village
or country post-ofice to another,
through the country. We use one
wire, with wires running into the
farmers house, where they have
phones. Our phones are long dist
auce, bridged to earth instruments,
aud so far have given good satisfac-
tion, some of them have been in use
over two years. The cost has been a
little less than $50 each, on an
average, for 'phone and building line.
Had some help from the town people
and doctors in building line. Cost of
keeping in repair has been almost
nothing so far. Have as high as
seventeen 'phones on one line. All
the lines here are connected by switch,
so that any one can talk with any of
the 'phones, (which are free to all those
having a share in the line. We also
connect with some of the toll lines,
where they will let US. More 'phones
and line are being added as time goes
on, which is a good recommend for
the telephone. Ladoga, Wis.

Victor Lawson of the Willmar Tri-
bune is said to be seeking the fusion
nomination for secretary of state.
This neck-o'- '-the-woods is prolific in
furnishing candid ates for the Office
two at Willmar, one at Litchfeld and
one in Wright county.-Litchfeld Re-
view.
The editor of the TRIBUNE is becom-
ing weary of being called upon to de-
ny these reports of his alleged candi-
dacy for Office. He does not want an
office-would not take one if rendered
him, and hence is not "seeking" a
nomination. He prefers to plod along
as Woodworking newspaper pub
Usher. as long as he is able to pub
lish free and independent newspaper.
II he takes an inteeest in politics and
devotes some space to political dis
cussion it is because he believes that
the mission of the TRIBUNE, which
was established and is supported by
the common people of Kandiyohi coun-
ty, requires it. He believes that it
would be impossible to conduct the
paper as it should be conducted, if the
editor or any of his associates on the
paper became candidate for office.
If the editor wanted office he would
run a different kind of a newspaper
and would be more intent on making
money and less careful of how he made
it. In his brief experience he has
seen bright and able men succumb to
the temptation of preferment, and be-
come moral towards, losing their own
self-respect. He has seen promising
young men yield their own honest con-
victions at a vague promise from
political corruptionists and willingly
become their pupils in venal politics.
While he is willing: to admit tn at he
may be mistaken in many things and
has a great deal to learn, he does not
propose to close his eyes, stop his
ears, silence the promptings OF his
moral sense by drifting abjectly on
the rocks on which he has witnessed
the wrecking of others. So there,
now, please give us a rest as to our
being candidate for Office.
