more suffering for the lack of food
in Spain at this moment than the
world has seen since Ireland's
famine of nearly two-thirds of o
century ago, except in China and
other parts of Asia, where calam-
tiles Of this sort are so common as
to escape attention. Apparently
Russia has not been ravaged in
any of its crop failures in the past
half century as large part Of
Spain is today, In the work of
relief, the United States, as the
wealthiest and most humane of the
worlds people, ought to move
promptly. A fleet of American
war or merchant vessels steaming
into Cadiz laden with food for
Spain's starving millions would be

A NOBLE PROJECT,

gests humanitarian move, the car
rylng out of which would bring
laurels to the American people
and supplant gratitude for the
sentiment of resentment which yet
fingers in unfortunate Spain.
Spain is having the severest fam
inc known there in centuries.
The United States is gathering the
largest harvest of grain and other
crops in our history. Out Of
Americas abundance there ought
to be contributed something to re.
lieve Spain's necessities. Millions
are on the verge of starvation in
Spain. Tens Of thousands of men
and women IN the last stages of
destitution are roaming the coun-
try sacking farms and carrying off
anything which can sustain life.
In some communities hunger has
dissolved the ordinary bonds
which bind society together and
anarchy prevails. A wave of crime
is sweeping over the whole prov
inces. Imprisonment is welcomed
for it brings food enough to at least
stave off starvation.
"The United States should con-
tribute its mite to relieve Spain's
distress. All the world should
send something to the famishing
Spaniards. Ireland remembers
with gratitude, after the lapse of
sixty years, the shiploads of food
sent over from the United States
to relieve the sufferers by the po
tatoe famine. Spain is more than
twice as large as Ireland was in
1916. The number of the destitute
is probably twice as great. Thus
far the horrors OF the Irish famine
have not been equalled by any
thing which the cable has told us
about the conditions in Spain, but
i must be remembered that the
distress is in its early stages, and
hat the winter is close at hand.
The drought and crop failures
which are leading cause of Spain's
cannot be relieved until
lext year at least.

"rhe ars saA ehts as to state funds
apply as we'll and with telling
force, TO our own city and county
funds, and scnool moneys, From
time to time bonds are sold, and
the proceeds lie in bank for months
before they are used. There are
sinking funds, all the time grow
ing The proceeds from taxation
are yearly increasing, and the
balances in the hands of city and
county treasurers, and school
authori les, are getting larger all
the time. These balances are de-
posted in locals banks, where they
are absolutely secure, but from
them the public derives no benefit,
while the banks are enabled to use
the money in their business for
long periods, receiving ten per
cent interest, and all the public
gets is security.
at does not seem logical or
business like way of carrying on
public business, to let these funds
thus lie idle at the expense of the
taxpayers. Any local bank could
well afford to pay three or three
and a half per cent on all public
moneys, keep an ample reserve,
and then make a good profit on
the transaction. These moneys
belong to the whole people, and
should be administered in their
behalf by those in authority. IfI
the st. Louis county bank could |
afford to pay more than six per
cent for the privilege of holding
public deposits, it looks as if this
city and county have been con-
several thousand dollars
a year to the various banks with
but getting an adequate return.
"Other things being equal, pub
Iic funds should be awarded to the
banks offering the highest rate of
interest. The banks securing the
contracts should make adequate
bonds in established surety COM
,anies, quite without reference to
he bonds made by the treasurers,
which should also be invaribly in
urety companies. The award
hould be made a strictly business
natter, for the peoples interest,
o that the public moneys might
'e earning fair revenue while
ying idle. 1t is not to be believed
hat there would be any opposition
o this plan if it should be tried by
he city and county, and school
uthorities, while there is every
rgument of sound policy in its
avor."

SHOULD RETURN FAIR INTEREST

"For thirteen years one bank
has been handling the funds of ST.
Louis county in Missouri without
payi ng a cent of interest to the
county. Recently another bank
requested the county court to ad-
vertlse for bidsSon the privilege Of
acting as depository for public
funds. The bids were opened a
few days ago, and the result was
an eye opener. One. bank bid two
per cent, another three, a third
three and a fraction, but the bank
that for thirteen years had held
the deposits bid a fraction over
six per cent to be paid on daily
balances.
"The county funds amount to
from 100000 to s5OO,OO0 year.
This means that the county has
lost in thirteen years over S3OO,O0O
that might have been gained under
an interest paying deposit plan.
The bank secured the contract
after making bond for half a
million. The bid looks extra
ordinarily large, but the bank is a
strong one.
"The tendency now all over the
country is towards placing public
funds on an interest basis, award
ing contracts on bids, and requir-
ing suitable bonds. Recently a.
Texas student Investigated the
conditions in all the states as to
state moneys, and arranged the
results Of his studies in tabular
form. The exhibit is Of great in

only nine states now keep their
funds in treasury vaults. Among
these is Texas, with an average
balance in cash Of over s2,5O0,O00.
The other thirty-nine states and
territories receive an average of
2 1-2 per cent. on their funds de-
posted in banks, which would
mean an annual revenue to Texas
Of s62, 500; the present system is

Territorial Fair

| The educational department o
the fair will be in charge of Prof
A. j. Matthews, principal of The
Tempe Normal school. A large
part of the exhibit made at the St
Louis exposition has been kept
and will be exhibited in this de.
partment and as much additional
work will be secured as possible.
The fair, coming as it does near
the beginning of the school term,
will make il difficult to secure the
best exhibit, unless the county
superintendent and teachers get
actively at work. The fair man
agement feels that the school sys-
tenn of the territory is an excellent
one and it should be represented
as its Importance deserves, and it
also hopes that Prof Matthews
will have hearty cooperation.
Mr. II. C. Lockett, of Flagstaff,
will have charge of the sheep and
goat department of the fair, As
the sheep men of the northern part
of the territory drive their focks
down here in the early winter, it
will be convenient for them to at.
tend the fair and u good exhibit of
this leading industry is promised.
The race program that has been
prepared for fair week is up to the
high standard set by the largest
race meetings of the east. There
are twenty races for trotters and
PAGERS, and nine for runners, with
a total of $4,000 to be contested
for, Glasses are provided for all
kinds of horses, and the liberal
amount of money offered will salts.

tory that we are determined to
have only the best, and that our
first annual territorial fair is bound
to be grand success. The speed
department is being widely adver.
tised all over the country, and the
fact that horsemen generally ap.
preciate our liberal purses is
proved by the fact that several
owners of fast horses have written
from Pennsylvania and New York
to say that they expect to bring
their horres to take part in our
races. The same information has
been received from several other
states; SO it seems the whole coun.
try will contribute many of its best
horses to make the fair success.
Arrangements are also being made
to secure the attendance of several
of the most noted horses of the
country in special exhibitions or
races. Our new tracks will be
very fast by fair time, and with the
many high class horses that will
it is certain that a great
many fast records will be made
and there will be week of good
clean horse racing that will be a
treat. Already there are about
thirty horses stabbed at the track,
and it is getting to be a busy place.
Work on the grand-stand, like the
stables, will be the equal of any in
the country for appearance and
comfort. Both the mile and half,
mile tracks are fully completed,
and all horsemen who see them
agree that they will be as fast and
rs safe as the best in the country. |
