The Poor Mans Fine.

A Kansas City judge has de-
cided that when a rich and a
poor man are arraigned for SINH
lar offenses, the first paying his
fine and the second going to jail
for lack of the necessary money.
the second is being imprisoned
for debt. In objecting to this
treatment of the poor man, the
Judge is able to cite constitution
al support.
Therefore. not being a mere
theorist, the judge gives the
moneyless offender a chance to
to pay the fine in installments, a
course both just and sensible,
the fact being manifest that a

GREAT FUTURE
AWAITS ARIZONA

''Titles to the land owned by
the State of Arizona will be in
perfect shape when the land COM
mission gets through with its
work, and the land to which the
title is given will be as good land
as the commission can pick out
for the state. This is the state
ment made by Mulford Winsor,
chairman of the Arizona State
Land Commission,
The commissioners do not want
to get land ahead of settlers, but
they want to get all the good
land they can without crowding
the settlers. They have over
IL, 000.0 900 acres to pick out and
that is a great task, if it is done
properly, and they are doing it
properly.
I'VE are trying to pick out
land that we believe the state
will realize on in the future, "
said Mr.. Winsor.
1--WE have been taking land
that we believe will some day be
under irrigation. We have not
been having such lands surveyed
or examined by experts to see
whether it will be irrigated land,
but we are using our judgments
regarding it and l think we have
got a lot of land that will one
day be very valuable for the
state.
But before we get all the
land we are making a solid basis
in the records of the land. There
will be no question regarding III
ties when we get through with
the work. 1t will not have to be
done again as it has been in ev-
cry other state.
THE legislature did a very
wise thing in putting off the en-
actment of laws regarding the
land proposition for new phases
and new problems, have arisen.
The question is one of the most
important in the state today.
We want to get the thing
started right and I'msure we are
doing that very thing. l am pos
tive that there is not a state in
the Union that has the records
in snch perfect shape as we have
them in Arizona. | am satisfied
that Arizona will not lose any of
it's land and that it will be worth |
millions and millions to the state.
The value now can hardly be es-
timated."
Arizona has sufficient land to
every state institution
and enough left to make the state
wealthy. Few people can real
ize what this land means to the
state. The careful selection of
the land which the state will
take means many millions to the
state, and the land commission
evidently is trying to make these
millions for Arizona. Tomb
stone Epitaph.
