GERMAN BUDGET
Is NOT REACHED
Taxes Fail to Get Money
Sought for Treasury.
DEFICIT THREATENS PARTY
By FREDERICK yERxER.


Berlin, May 2o.-The German govern
mentment is IN serious trouble, and even
that part Of the press which has hitherto
loyalty supported its policy now admits
that the trouble, In part at least, is of
the governments own making.
The budget made by the chancellor of
the empire upon the lines indicated by
the blue-b1ack block"-that is TO say,
the coalition between the reactionary
clergy and the ultra-conservative large
Hand ovners-has proved a complete fall
ure, the taxes having failed to realize
anything like the amounts hoped for
and this in spite of the fact that the fis-
cal year OF 1910 has been a very prosper
Gus one for German commerce. The new
Itaxes will never again stand a better
ichance; they brought all they possibly
icould bring. All taxes on whisky, beer,
( on illumination, matches, and checks
Ihave realized only a small percentage Of
what the chancellor had calculated on.
The large deficit thus created is not
only fatal to the present reactionary ma
1orlty In the Reichstag. but It also shows
/ that as q result of the governments
RECKLESS policy the purchasing power of
the German people has materially de-
I creased. The people simply cannot bear
any more burdens. The limit was reached
q year ago, and when new taxes were
imposed in a mad effort on the part Of
( the government to create a surplus In
I the treasury, to be used as q convincing
election argument this year, the people, |
unable to refuse to pay the taxes, were
forced to reduce their living expenses
which means that the whole nation as of J
one accord bought less, limiting their !,
purchases to the absolute necessaries of |
. life.
Party Faces Defeat.
The reactionary party now in power |
is in hole. They admit this among |
themselves. and consequently they are
making strenuous efforts to turn the at
tention of the voters away from the con-
sequences of their selfish policy. This is
the only reason why they have persist
emily been trying to- make capital of
every Insignificant diplomatic affair, as.
for instance. during the time when
France was deliberating as to what ac-
tion to take in Morocco.
In reality they did not even dare hone
that their blum would be successful, for
the German people have shown plainly
enough that they do not want to be |,
mixed up in Moroccan affairs as lonR al

geciras treaty. and nobody ever believed

SCHOOL TAX IS
RAISED 4 CENTS

A disastrous tangle in the
assessment. brought about by an
unusual system Of legislation dur
ing the last session, became
apparent yesterday when letter
WAS received from State Superin-
tendent of Education John
Edwards Bray, BY Auditor and
Recorder Bell, calling attention to
the fact that four cents additional
must be added to the school tax
according to the state law.
The tangle comes about through
the passage on March 18 of this
year Of six-cent school tax This
on March 20, was amended to ten
cents. with the result that the
latter is in effect, however, the
actual taxation law furnished
the assessors all over the state
with the information that six cents
governs. and such arrangement
was made. Bray. having discovered
the amendment, has called the
attention Of auditors all over the
state. to the condition and an
additional four cents must be
collected.
The effects are far reaching AS
an illustration the GoldReld Con-
solidated bullion tax has been
increased $3.50 on this account
which amount has already been
paid. Whether or not it will be
possible to collect the advance on
the personal property rolls. is
however. quite uncertain. and it is
believed that this difference will
be allowed to stand as it is.
In any event the tax rolls of the
county will have to be revised
causing a considerable loss of time
and work. 1t is reported that
Auditor Grimes in Nye county
fatty refused to consider such
revision until instructed that 1t
was his duty under the law. The
responsibility for the improper
codiication Is placed with those
placing the state law in circnla.
tion.-Goldfeld Tribune.
Auditor Greathnuse has received
the same kind of a letter from Mr..
Bray and has referred the matter
to District Attorney Dysart. AS
the matter glands now, the county
auditor has no control over the
assassin ent roll and will not have
until the board of equalization
passes on It and It is turned over
to him In pursuance of law. 1t
is,very doubtful if the auditor has
the right to change the tax levy
as fixed by the state controller and
the county commissioners.
However. the matter will be
threshed out by the district at

will act in accordance with his
instructions.

MANY SPIES m UNITED STATES

A Washington. dispatch says that
startling evidene of I he pernicious
activity Of foreign spies is in the
possession Of the army general
staff. accounts fer the serious
consideration that is now being
given to the most trifling report of
attempts to discover the military
secrets of the country. Some of
these incidents are Of comparatively
recent date and it was upon the
submission of such information to
secret session Of the judicial
committee Of the house that legis-
lation was secured the last ses-
sion of congress providing for the
severe punishment of spies in time
of peace.
An Englishman. il. Calcutta.packed
in tn. strets a small package of
blue prints showing every detail
of the dcfenses of Corregidor
Island, the main stronghold of the
United States in tho Philippines.
The prints were not copies of any
drawings or charts prepared for
use of the United States, but were
evidently the result of a careful
and deliberate investigation of the
official and confidential records of
the United States. The existence
of the blue prints made it evident
that there were other copies in
existence. The Englishman sent
the papers to the War Depart
ment here, but the most careful
investigation failed to discover the
means by which the information
had been obtained.
A waiter in Scat lie hotel was
found to be foreign officer in
disguise. possessing many draw
ings and notes he had made of the
Pacific coast defenses f..
An American ambassador
notified the State Department that
certain captain belonging to the
army of the country where he was
stationed had been detailed to
spend three years secretly investi-
eating the American countries and
studying their military conditions.
Even the. Panama Canal has not
escaped: one of the engineers
found foreign officer an attache
to one of the American countries,
secretly studying the canal from a
strategic standpoint and he under
stood that there were six or seven
other officers of the same nation

ment.
But the incident that convinced
the judiciary committee of the
necessity for the protective law
occurred less than a year ago in
the PHILIPPINES. An enlisted man
in the engineers was offered $685.
900 by two foreign officers for the
plans of the defense of Corregidor
Island. Being the official photo
grapher he had ample opportunity
to get all the necessary pictures,
having first informed his superior
officer Of the attempt. A trap
was laid and the two foreign spies
were captured. But habeas corpus
proceedings we're obtained and
they were released as there was
then no law in the Philippines or
the United States under which
they could be prosecuted. =
