There is some caviling at the report Of the
senate committee that investigated the election
of Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin The com
mitee reports that the charge Of bribery was
not proved Ii might have added that the evi-
dence failed to show that any law was broken
by Stephenson and his campaign managers
Stephenson spent S107 900 in his campaign for
reelection but it was not shown that any money
expended illegally. The election was held in
accordance with free-forall primary law which
places no restriction the amount of money a
candidate may spend Some people seem to think
the committee should have reported in favor of
unseatng Stephenson the ground that he spent
too much money, but the money was spent
lawfully and nobody corrupted ESQ far as
the testimony shows the committee could not
have reported otherwise than it did ii is to be

Dorothy Dix: 5i 4s...! 5'5. r5 ss: Be
In Too Many Cases Couples Easily picked by
Expressions.

" HERE is one slang phrase that
always makes hit with me. and
that is Friend wife"
Do you get that? Friend wife! It's
what every man should be able to call
the woman to whom he is married. and
yet not one man in 10000 could truth
fully use the phrase. There are wives
who are sweethearts, wives who are
affinities, wives who are sparring part
ners, wives who are debating oppO-
nents, wives who are tyrants, wives
who are slaves and domestic drudges,
but how seldom wife who is a friend!
Nte the best thing that any woman
can be TO her husband is 10 be his
friend. 1t is the whole OF the law and
the prophets as regards how TO be hap
py though married.

Married Couples Bored Expressions.
If you desire to get a line on how
little companionship there IS between
the great majority of husbands and
wives watch them at the theater, or
at the restaurants, or any Of the other
places Of public amusement. You viii
see them sitting up In a silence 50
thick that you could cut It with a
knife, yaWning in each others face
between the acts Of the play. and stuff
ing themselves on bread and butter
at the restaurant while they wait for
their order TO be served. Not a word
have they to say to each other unless
they get into scrap about what they
snail have TO eat, or whether they put
the cat out Of doors when they left
home In any company you do not
need a diagram TO show YOU which are
the married couples. You can pick
them out by their bored expressions.
Then did you ever notice the pitIful
paucity of conversation in the nome.
Husbands and wives seem to have lit
orally no topic in common except theN
bills and the children. The average
family circle might be composed OF
mutes for all the cheerful and inter
estIng talk that goes about it. Yet
the husband may be famed as q Wit

What is a friend? A friend is the
one to whom YOU can go with every
JOY and sorrow, certain OF understand
ing, sure Of sympathy and help How
many men find such Il friend in their
wives? How many women nave sueh
friends in their husbands2 So Few, so
tragicany, pitifully few!
Wife Hystertcal IL Husband Is Frank.
1t is one Of the heartbreaking facts
of matrimQny that one of the first
things that the average husband finds
out is that he can't even be frank with
his wife without her going into hys-
terics. He has TO lie to her when he
wants to stay downtown of night and
play game of cards, or 80 to dinner
with some man. he wouldn't dare to
tell her that he had happened to meet
some woman he knew near the dOOL Of
a restaurant and had asked her 10
lunch with him He'd only tell these
things TO his friends-and not one Of
them would be friend wife"
Why, the great majority of men are
not sufficiently friendly with their
wives to even talk over their business
with the women, or to open up their
hearts 10 them and show them their
hopes, and plans, and ambitions. When
they want to talk about real things
like that they go to some man. It's
mighty seldom that man finds his
real confidante in friend wife"
Nor are the women any more fortu-
nate in this respect 1t doesn't take
that if she wants her household ma
chinery to move smoothly she must
keep most of her real thoughts and
ideas to herself, and all Of her troubles.
and that the best way to work her lord
and master is TO make him cOmfOrta-.
bic, and Obtrude her soul lonSings on
him as little as possible.
When woman wants to discuss
problem, play, or new noNc-- or me-
clubs, or the suffrage movement she is
"a RELY fortunate enough TO be able &c
do so with her husband For the aver
age man isn't interested in the things
that his wife is, and he doesn't even
make a pretense Of being. Therefore
the wifes friends are Of her own sex
if she is good woman, and Of the op-
pOsite sex if she is foolish and
fighty one, but her best friend is not,
as il should be. friend husband.
1t is because there is so little friend
ship between husbands and wives thar
there is so little marital happiness, for
the last estate of married life must
either be friendship or ruin.
Home Must Be Founded on Friendship.
The romance of cOurtship is a tissue
of chiffon that wears to rags and tat
tiers with a year or two of married life.
Passion dies of safety, and then the
home must go to pieces like house OF
cards unless It was founded on the
solid rock Of friendship. After the
glamour and the thrills Of youth and
beauty and desire are gone WedlOck be-

Land Tax System of Sinaloa
and Mexican Taxing Methods
By CHAS. A. DINSMORE.

The Mexican system of taxation Of
lands for state purposes. enforced in
Sinaloa, is essentially upon a basis Of
S14 per $1,000 of valuation. Francisco
j. Gutierrez, tax collector for the dis
trict of MaZatlan, one Of the best IN
formed men on this subject IN the re-
public. states The fundamental basis
is on three land dfvisions-firSt second
and third class The first class in
Guides LANDS well Watered, on lines OF
transportation, near permanent mar
kets5 second class further from trans
pOrtatiOn and market, third class. yet
furrher from these essentials and prac-
tically unWatered. generally noun tain
lands. The basis Of valuation is about
SO per hectare for the very best class
OF lands. down 10 practically nothing
for the third class The gradaCOns may
be somewhat stated in this form
appraised at one-fOurth less than
Mazatlan district lands, and SinalOa
lands at Onc-fOurth less than Euerte.
In addition 10 the state tax of SI4
per $1,000 OF valuation, there is a fed
eral tax of 20 percent Of this s14.'
Mexican Tax Laws Liberal
The MeNlcan tax laws are more lid
eral than those OF any country on the
globe The reason one hears so much
fuss about taxes in Mexico is that for
eigners are not familiar with a system
which taxes everything, but the fact IS
that. after taxing everything. the to-
tai sum OF &c is less than One-half the
total tax paid in the United States The
land tax valuation of So per hectare is
in fact on land that is worth over 50
sold per acrc-and when YOU figure
S15 per hectare down to United States
money you are paying annually at the
rate OF S14 per $1,000 on a valuation
