A Democratic Opportunity.

The Democrats, now tndt the surplus
is dwindling and the prospects of a
bond issue to meet current expenses Of
the Government are looming higher and
higher, count upon making that condi-
ton the subject of aggressive criticism.
The Republicans, il they succeed in
economizing and in bringing the ex-
penses of the Government within the
revenues, will forestall the issue of ex-
trayagance on which parties have often
been turned out of Office and on which
many an Administration has been
changed.
Meanwhile for months and months
the Army and the Navy will be run on
the same expensive lines as heretofore
Congress has voted the necessary FUNDS
Every Bureau Chief has his allotment
as heretofore, and has warrant to draw
the funds from the Treasury. The
strengthening of Notifications in the

and the operations of the navy yards
and of the war fleets will continue with

larger appropriations than ever for the
forthcoming year. Great building en-
terprises in the erection and improve

for officers are under way. There can
be but little halting in the disbursement
Of funds for all these Army projects.

Post Office Department, where the deh-
cit was larger last year than ever be-

A few hundred thousand dollars may

cases where the officials are allowed

that large appropriations made cor

GOVERNOR SIGNS
WRONG MEASURE

General Instead of Highway Fund Musi
Pay $4,000 as Result Of Error.
OLYMPIA, March 20.-Under the
belief the money was to be paid out
of the state highway fund, Gov. Hay
signed house bill 1913, appropriating
1929. 900 out of the state general fund
The governor made the discovery af-
ter the measure had received his sig
nature.
The bill provides that the state geo.
logical board make a Survey of the
state to locate deposits of road MAX
ing, material, and provides that the
state may acquire rock .quarries and
employ. convicts in manufacturing
crushed rock.
The governor thought the expense
amounting to $4,000, should be paid
from the highway fund, but, the bill
provides the money shall be paid from
any fun is in the state treasury not
otherwise appropriated" The state Of
ficials may interpret this to allow them
to pay the expenses from the highway
fund, but there is possibility that
the general fund alone will have to
meet the demands.

BLAME FOR EXPLOSION AT
WALLACE POWDER PLANT

up Of the Occur. d'Alene Powder
Works, near Wallace, yesterday after

Of a fourth, is now believed by Dr.

Ill feeling toward the powder plant

The damage to buildings and ma

while the loss suffered through the
destruction of powder stored away is
about $4,000 more.

TAG DAY.

One week from today the citizens
Of Walla Walla Will be called upon to
show their appreciation of the city
park. For next Saturday is Tag Day
and the ladies of the Woman's Park
club will make an earnest endeavor to
net a. sum that will be of some real
help in developing the city playground
If perchance there are any who do not
believe in the city park, they can, help
Tag Day along with clear conscience
by wearing their bit of pasteboard for
the library, for the money is to be di-
vided equally between the two public
enterprises.
1t has been just year since the cam
paign for the city park was taken up
by the ladies of the city. They formed
a Park club and in season and out OF
season have been laboring necessarily
for the development of this playground
not for any selfish reason, but for the
advancement of the city. Park benefits
have been many, and for the most part
they have been we'll attended, and sup
port should not now be lacking.
Tag Day is not a new idea In fact
it has been tried in nearly every city of
the northwest, and successfully. In
reality, it has been tried here before
~, I'll If
ed when the park was first talked of
when nearly every person in the city
wore a button to show he had given
his dollar to help build the park. The
park then was a theory. Nothing had
been done toward it and many were
skeptical. They thought nothing could
be done inside of four or five years
that would be any credit to the city
They have been shown. Walla Walla
today has a city park of which every
citizen is proud. And justly so. But
this park cannot be maintained with
out funds and to get these funds there
must be a general loosening up OF
purse strings.
Many of what has just been said
applies equally we'll to the library. II
is one of the buildings Of which the
| people Of the town are proud. That is
the exterior But on the inside of this
| building the state of affairs is really
pitiable for a city of this size. Ani
new books are badly needed The
| Presbyterians came to the rescue in 8
library benefit the. other night thai
netted more than 5000. More will un.
doubtedly follow.
| But Tag Day is for both library ant
park. Surely no one can hold ou
against both Both are certainly wor-
thy of support and the citizen who one
week from this time has not had one
yes, half a doZen-tags pinned on hin
by the fair hands of the women O
Waila Walla, will not be worthy of thu
name of citizen. 1t is not selfish in
terest that is promoting this move
ment, why should anyone be selfish il

"The Winters Tale"

There are plays and players, but
as long as Shakespeare's immortal
plays are depicted on the stage, and
whenever the portrayal is given to
real artists, so long will lovers of the
ideal as well as the realistic patronize
the theatre In Charles B. Ranford
and in the members of his able COM
pany who gave 1.-THE Winters Tale"
last night in the Keylor Grand the
atre goers of Walla Walla had oppor-
tunity to see and realize the possibili-
ties of art on the stage when in the
hands of true artists.
To the fair sized audience who wit
messed Mr.. Hanford and his COM
pany in the famous Shakespearean
tragedy the acting brought with 1t the
sense that they were artists in the
real definition of the term. Mr.. Han
ford taking the dual characters of
"Leontes, king of Scilia," and Auto
lycus, a rogue" wildly brought out
the latent characteristics of the two
characters. He is remarkable
delineator of human character in all
it's phases.
Hardly less pleasing in the dual
characters
"Leontes," and "Perdita," daughter to
Leontes, and "Hermoine," was Miss
Marie Drofnah. Her work throughout
the entire production was distinctly
of the first order.
Miss Brown as "MamilliuS," the
young Sicilian prince, was exception
ally charming. The scarf and tam
BOURNE dancers were also well re-
ceived. On several occasions many in
the audience were moved to tears so
faithfully were the various scenes
Portrayed the unjustness of King
Leontes, the Punishment of the noble
queen, and the anguish of the king at
the death of Queen Hermione and the
little prince furnished sadness enough
for the most lacrimose individual. All
in all the play was equal to the best
that Walla Walla has had in some
time.

DEMONSTRATION TRAINS.

Modern education of various kinds
has resOrted 10 many methods to reach
the many who cannot or who will not,
come to school. Popular knowledge
and culture have been increased great
ly by the correspondence schools, which
have proved a great boon to those who
could not go 90 school. but who were
willing.
New comes a more advanced method
for those who cannot go to school.
Farmers have long recognized the ne
cesSity for training and education along
agricultural lines. But they had not
time to go to school, some had not
the inclination to go and be classed
with men thirty years their juniors.
The problem has reached a solution in
the demonstration train, now being run
by the railroads of the northwest
Equipped with experts from the state
colleges and all the apparatus necessary
to demonstrate their lectures, the trains
journey to every town, city, village and
siding in the country. No place is
sighted or shown favoritism on &C
count OF size. All farmers have an
equal chance to learn.
The origin of these trains was with
the good roads people, who were anx-
ious to impress upon the country at
large the value of good roads. They
could not reach them all at once they
could not be sure of reaching them in
the papers or of impressing them If
they did So they started the demon
stration train. They proved such suc-
cess in New Jersey, where the expert
ment was first tried, that they soon
= spread to other parts of the United
States. And nowhere have they been
more successful than in the Inland EN-
pire.
The good resulting from the rum
ming of such trains is inestimable Far
mers get in two hours the crystalized
experience of the professors, obtained
by years of hard endeavor. Farmers
learn in half a day more about the
right way to farm than they can in
ten years experience along the ordi-
nary lines Of this enterprise Ideas
they have never had time to work out
even TO think of, are given them, boiled
down and ready for application.
Last year the instructors accompany
ing the Q. r. & n. train made pleas
for intensified farming. They argue
that the land in this vicinity is too val
liable for wheat raising any longer. The
results of their trip are beginning t.
be manifested in the movement now
becoming general, to cut up the large
farms Of the Walla Walla valley anC
to make fruit farms, smaller in area
of that land.
The methods of the instructors Of
these trains are up to date, and while
some few old-line mossback farmer:
may not have much use for rbooi
larnin'." yet the progressive farmer:
of the valley realize that this is no
theoretical advice they are getting, bu
the result of real experience, obtained
hv scientific methods and at great cost
1t is not only the privilege of the far
-mers to attend the lectures and demon
strations of these trains, but their duty
They help pay for the schools from
which the educators come and the.
should know what they are doing there
And by so doing they viii profit.

for n,,rnoses of taxation.


Modern governments will not accept
the old common law idea that a fran
chise is a mere license to use the streets
for the public benefit, no more to be
taxed than the same privilege conferred
upon a dray or motor car. Taxing
bodies are determined to make fran
chises pay tax upon a tangible value
or to exclude a tangible value repre-
senting them from the capital sum
upon which public service corporations
are TO be allowed to earn dividends.
OF all the various rules laid down
bv courts and administrative bodies for
vaiuing franchise, the simplest is that
lately presented by one of the appel
late divisions of the New York SUI
preme court in a water company case.
Here net earnings were taken as a
basis. The sum of six per cent on the
value of the tangible property Of the
company was deducted from them and
the remainder was considered earnings
from the franchise. Caritalizing this
annual amount again the value of the
intangible property represented by the
franchise would be obtained.
In this case, and it is said in most
cases, the dppllcdlIou "a that ioiC
would wipe out all franchies valuation.
because it is said that few of these
corporations earn more than six per
cent upon their own valuation of their
tangible property. But that brings up
the eternal question of physical valu-
alton of property. 1t is generally con-
sidered that the valuation of their
property by corporations for the pur-
poses of fixing charges is as much too
high as their valuation of it for pur-
poses of taxation is too low
Probably they and the taxing bodies
differ as to the proper allowance to
be made them for the unearned incre-
ment of rise in land values. But Way
should not corporations enjoy this as
well as lot owners and farmers?
