OUR TAXES

The tax rate as set by the Board of Supervisors of Imperial county is $4.25 on the $10O. This seems like a very high rate, and to some few it will so prove. The most of the taxable property of this county at the present time is personal property and to the man who has both personal prop erty and real estate will feel the taxation quite a little, but there are always a few who have to carry a heavier burden for the benefit of the many. As the taxable property in this county stands today, it has to be made to do double duty. For ins tance, a man, has a farm, well titled, and valuable; has proved up on the same, but as yet has not patent. He has to pay enough on his personal property to make up for thd land not being taxable. If all the land in this condition was taxable at this time, our rate of tax would be very small in- deed.
 But even as it is the whole county is gainer. Last year what is now Imperial county paid into the treasury of San Diego county $21,OO0 road tax and San Diego county paid back to us what amounted to about $1O,OO0. In this deal our roads suffered to the amount of $11, 900 while this year, under our new government there will probably be paid to the road fund nearly $22, GOO, every penny of which will go to the betterment of our roads and bridges.
 We can well feel that we are ahead in the transaction. Our roads need attention and good roads mean more to us, probably, than to any other part of Sonth- ern California.

ALL WEEK SESSION
The County Board of EducrtiOn < Solving Knotty Problems

Supt. J. E. Carr, Mrs. J. M. Eshleman and E. McCully of the Imperial County Board of Educa- ton have been in session several days. Mrs. Eshleman was elect ed president of the board and Supt. Carr is secretary ex-oficio. The problems coming before the Board are numerous and weighty; among them may be mentioned the following: A course of study for the schools of the new coun- ty, the examinations for teachers, examining credentials of teach CTS who have not had opportuni- ty to be examined, text books for the county schools and reference and library lists. q
 The other members of the Board express themselves as delighted with the familiarity that Supt. Carr has shown regarding his duties and powers, as well as his pleasant manner in dealing with the many intricate questions continually arising.
 The members of the Board ex- press a determination to place a high standard of educational excellence for the new county and ask that those interested give warm support to every eff fort made for the improvement of the schools. In many coun- ties the efficiency of the schools has been greatly hampered by the certifcating and employment of inexperienced and incompe- tent teachers merely because such teachers had influence. It Is believed that Imperial county will start in its educational ca reer without any such an incu- bus, and the present Board is not .iAely to encourage incompetents. Definite results of the Boards action will be given from time to time.

The Press is sending out a complete statement of each sub scriber's account with this paper, believing fully that one runs be- hind in their subscription to their paper through thoughtlessness more than for any other one req son. The postal laws are strict in the matter that a subscription to a paper must be paid for in advance, and in order to get the date on every name marked up to these requirements, the few who are delinquent are being no- tified as to their standing. 1t not being the wish of the Press to arbitrarily discontinue the paper without good cause, this method is taken. Should there be a mistake in any statement you may receive please let the management know wherein 1t lies and the same will be cheer fully corrected. But don't kick you won't feel any worse than we do if we make a mistake.

CAUIION NEEDED

The meetings held at Imperial Friday and at Fl Centro Tues day are bound to have a far reaching effect on the future of this valley. As was stated in the Press last week, there is no doubt but what there is land in the Imperial Valley that is being jumped the owner of which has fully complied with the law in every respect, and that the act of contesting the same is either a piece of foolishness or of ma liciousness. In either case the owner will be subjected to a great deal of expense and annoy ance needlessly, and these things should be stopped, and every land owner in the valley should lend his hand to help stop it. People must be protected in their rights.
 But extreme caution should be used by the men who are acting in this matter that they do not lend their hand to also help some one keep a body of land that they are not entitled to. In the face of so many allegations re- garding land frauds, there may possibly be some cases of such in the valley, and the Press holds that there should be nothing done to cover up any wrongfully held land. And the Press holds with equal yigor that no one should suffer from the foolish ness or maliciousness of a pro- fessional land jumper. Care must be exercised in this matter. Let investigations be made, anc a segregation of wheat and chall take place.

A Correction.

Some time since the Ardmoreite. in
reporting the arrest of Jess Hyden of
Dougherty in Connection with a shoot
ing escapade, was incorrect in calling
Mr.. Hyden a negro. The reporter mis-
understood the deputy marshal in get
ting the facts of the case. The atten-
tion of the paper was called to the
error some time ago, but the letter
was inadvertently misplaced, and
hence the correction at this time. It
II not the object OF the Ardmoreite
TO misrepresent anyone and we gladly
make he correction in justice to MIR.
Hyden, who is good citizen of
Dougherty.
