at $4,000, as a protest against the tax
system, which he opposes on principle.
Edwards is a large fruit grower. For
years he has received a liberal income
from his orchards. which were just
coming into prime bearing condition.
The county assessor placed a valua-
ton of 800 an acre on Edwards ranch
this year. The increase in valuation
capped the climax of Edwards sOcialis-
tic opposition. He deliberately pun the
AK 10 twenty acres of his fine orchards

that il might be classified as plOw
lands, which carry a low valuation.
The suppOsitiOn is that the man mind

SLEEP QUESTION
STIRRING ENGLAND

Upton REQUIRES LESS
Hall Caine Believes in. More, But He
Only Gets Four Hours a
Night.

LONDON. Sept AL England is
greatly interested in the discussion now
going on regarding the requisite amount
or sleep for men. women. and children.
DR.. T. Dyke Acland started the discus
sion with his advice to all 10 sleep
longer DR.. Josiah Oldheld. the noted
specialist. followed this with the decla-
ration that, women need less sleep than
men.
Representative men and women whose
opinions have been sought agree that
most people suffer from insuffciency OF
sleep. either as a general rule or at
special seasons. Devotees Of society dur
ing the season. members of parliament
during the session. and ardent business
men complain as a rule that the sleep
they get IS Inadequate.
Kings Rest Regular.
When the King is at Marienbad 10
o'clock is the hour set by the physician
for retirement. and his majesty is
awakened at $50 "a. ma for his first glass
OF water-which allows a minimum Of
eight hours 20 sleep.
Sir Alfred Jones. a man Of great ac-

Not a Good Precedent.

In the statement concerning the
bloody outbreak at Cananea which is
issued by Governor YsABEL Of Sonora
and General LUIS L. TORIES of the
Mexican army there is no mention Of
the employment Of the 200 Arizonians
who were summoned TO the rescue of their
countrymen and welcomed by the Next
can Governor. AS a matter of fact, they
did not fire a shot; the service they REM
dered was to overawe the rioters until
enough rlrales and gendarmes arrived
TO restore order.
The affair should be a lesson and warn
ing to the Mexican authorities. To in
troduce armed Americans to do police
duty in the mining districts, where al
ready there is a uitlander problem, was
not a wise precedent. President DIA2,
no doubt, will now take measures to
afford adequate protection to Americans
doing business and who live in colonies
in Mexico.

In Iowa.

The Hon. LESLIE MoRTIER SHAW has
thrown himself with his wonted momen-
tum into the canvass for the Republican
nomination for Governor of Iowa. He
views with alarm the efforts Of Governor
CUMMINs of the Iowa Idea to get a third
term and to touch the ark Of the Dingley
tariff. Just as the wicked and deceitful
Democrats of Massachusetts, won't ask
for free trade" but for revision of GER
tain schedules, so this wolf of a Cum
minis in the Republican fold asks for
such revision. Finally, Mr.. CUMMINs,
apparently an admirer Of Democratic
rhetoric and rodomontade, calls the
sacred tariff a robbers tariff" No
wonder Mr.. SHAW throws up appealing
hands and rolls pious eyes:
" say to you that the nation Is watching this
phase of the Iowa contest. and the success of the
candidate for ONCE who takes 1t upon himself to
speak OF the effects Of the DIngley tanr as robbery
Will be understood as a Reputation OF the national
Republican policy OF protection"
The nation has a number Of things
to look at. There l'lst be several mill
ions of eyes that are not fixed" upon
Iowa, and several millions Of American
citizens that know not the Hon. ALBERT
BAIRD CUMMINs or his rival, the Hon.
GEORGE DOUGLAS PERKINS. formerly of
Baraboo and now of Sioux City. But
there is no mind so careless, no heart
so hard as not to be stirred keenly by

Simple Life Flats.

Amid the wit, eloquence and poesy
the brilliant theories and debates of the

Tampa In the Exposition Business Too

In a resolution preceded by sonorous
whereases Senator TALIAFERRo of Flor
ida has made an heroic effort to quicken
public interest in the Panama Canal
exposition at Tampa in 1908, which Gov
ernor BRowARD proclaimed in Deem
Der last. The Taliaferro resolution was
introduced in the Senate on June 2, and
referred without comment to the select
Committee on Industrial Bxpositions.
Mr.. T%ALIAFERRo deems it fitting that
the commencement Of the work on
the Panama Canal" should be 80 cele-
brated at Tampa, to the end that the
sentiment in favor of it's early compile
ton may be "fostered and kept alive. "
Tampa should be chosen for the expo
sition, his resolution submits, because
it is nearer to said canal than any other
city in the country having a deep and
commodious harbor,' has fine railroad
facilities and is salubrious. He pro-
poses that the President call on Gov.
