High Compliment Paid to
Receiver BirdnO.

Charles w. Wells, inspector in
the interior department under
the Carey act, left for Los An
geles yesterday.
Wells spent several weeks
along the Gila river studying
water conditions for the purpose
of reporting on the San Carlos
dam project.
Wells returned to Phoenix and
spent most of the time until his
departure going through the files
and records of the Arizona land
office.
Upon the completion of his in
vestigation in the land office,
Wells told Receiver Birdno that
of the records of the large num-
Der of land offices that he has
examined in six of the western
states, he has failed to find one
that compares in accuracy and
neatness with the records of the

The Law of Wages.

Every employee pays for sup
erintendence and inspection.
Some pay more and some less.
That is to say, a dollar-a-day
man would receive two dollars a
day were it not for the fact that
some one has to think for him,
look after him and supply the
will that holds him to his task.
The result is that he contributes
to the support of those who SUI
perintend him. Make no mis-
take about this: Incompetence
and disinclination require super
vision, and they pay for it and
no one else does. The less you
require looking after, the more
able you are to stand alone and
camplete your tasks, the greater
your reward. Then, if you can
not only do your own work. but
direct intelligently and effective
ly the efforts of others, your re-
ward is in exact ratio, and also
t h e more people you direct
and the higher intelligence you
can rightly lend, the more valu-
able is your life. The law of
wages is as sure and exact in its
working as the law of the stan
dard of life. You can go to the
very top and take Edison for in
stance, who sets a vast army at
work and wins not only deathless
fame, but a fortune, great be-
yond the dreams o f avarice.
And going down the scale, you
can find men who will not work
of themselves and no one can
make them work, and so their
lives are worth nothing, and they
are a tax and burden on the
community. Do your work so
we'll that it will require no su-
pervision, and by doing your own
thinking you will save the ex-
pense of hiring some one to think
for you. -Elbert Hubbard.

the new tariff bill is it's break a.
way from the traditional basis of
federal taxation in America,
namely, indirect taxation.
For the first time in a period
of peace, with no imminent crises
impending, large part of the
revenue to run the government is
to be taken directly from the
pockets of citizens best able to
pay it. Instead of leaving the
heaviest end of the tax burden on
the already over weighted backs
of the poor, the income tax trans
fers it to the well-to-do and rich.
The imposition of a graduated
tax upon incomes, the laying
down of a new basis of meeting
the costs Of government-this is
hopeful, significant.

One Way Out.

Charles w. Armour, president
of the Missouri corporation of
Armour and Company all over
the country, has come forward
with the solution of the problem
of the high cost of living. Mr..
Armour says we should quit eat
ing veal.
Now we do not know anything
about Mr.. Armour's diet; but we
would respectfully suggest to the
said Armour that if he had to
pay meat market bill once
every month on a salary of four
teen dollars and fifty cents per
week, western time, he wouldn't t
worry about the price of veal or
any other kind of real meat and
he certainly wouldn't eat any.
Still Mr.. Armour, in spite of
his apparent lack of information
regarding the opinions of the
general public, seems to have hit
upon a pretty fair idea. There
is a shortage of beef in this
country. That seems to be ad-
mitted. There is a shortage of
money in the country. That is
freely admitted. Let US, for a
stipulated period, say two years,
cease the eating of any character
of meat, other than that which
we grow and slaughter on our
own farms and in our own back
yards. Such a law, passed by
the states, or by the nation as an
interstate act, might help to in
crease the supply in a little while
to where we could all eat veal.

Don't Get Your Foot In 1t.

A little story is going around
about Achilles, the famous Greek
warrior, who was immersed in
water by his mother and became
invulnerable, all except his heels,
by which his mother held him,
and which did not get wet.
1T is strange, Achilles is
quoted to have said, according to
this story, that every part of
me is invulnerable except the
place where | didn't get my foot
in it. "
1t is a consolation to blunder-
ing mortals to know that there
is some advantage in getting
ones foot in it.
After a man has made mis-
take on some proposition once
he is not likely to make the same
mistake again.
He won't if he is able to profit
by his mistakes, and mistakes
are often a great source of profit
even though expensive at the
time.

In India there is a legend among
the common folks that since God
cannot be everywhere, he selects
mothers to take his place while he
is absent. And it seems they are
right. If any person can take
Gods place it is a good mother.
The greatest character in every
community are the mothers, and
the greatest men in any commun-
ity are those who render the high
est tribute to motherhood.
The sweetest word in our Ian
guage is mother.

THE LOOT OF THE NATION

There came out in the proceed
ings of the Senate the other day
the full story of how the Santa
Fe railroad beat the government
out of 25 to so million dollars by
trick of law and land trading,
reference to which was made in
The Capital some years ago, when
this shady transaction occurred.
1t is cited here as an illustration
of how the public interest has
been negected by public's agents
we'll as how the managers of cor
porations have been alert to beat
the public as opportunity offered.
The Santa Fe railroad owned,
through the generosity of the
government, a large body of barren
land in the remote Southwest,
some /, 200, 900 acres which it held
to be worth from 5 to Is cents an
acre. A law passed to protect for
est and for the creation of forest
reservations. And a provision Of
the act allowed private owners of
land that were absorbed into
forest reserves to obtain from the
nation other timbered lands, acre
for acre, in lieu of those surrend-
cred for the public benefit of for
est preservation. The Santa Fe
pricked up its ears and got busy.
1t succeeded, thanks supposedly
to Paul Morton and to the ap-
proving order of the attorney for
t h land bureau, afterwards
made a federal judge, Mr.. Van
deventer, now member of the
United States Supreme Court, in
exchanging more than a million
acres of nearly worthless and
treeless lands, acre for acre,
which the government was in
duced to create into a forest"
reserve, for the best timbered
lands of the Northwest, picked
out and selected by agents of the
road, and according to the state
ments made to the Senate, worth
all the way from $50 to 5000 an
acre. From 5 to Is cents to $50
and 5000 an acre would seem to
be a fine profit to a railroad, at
the nations expense.
Such things have been done,
and they illustrate the careless
ness of the public's servants as
we'll as the greed and lack of
conscience of corporate officials.
And by such carelessness on the
one hand, or connivance, and
greed on the other, carried on
for more than a generation, the
losses to the nation have been
heavy. What came to be known
as the progressive movement in
politics is the natural and inevi-
table consequence of such long
continued abuse of the public
welfare. Topeka Capital.

The Picnic

Last Saturday was fine day for the
picnic and good crowd of people were
in town to see what there was to be
seen and to help make good time. So
far as we were able to judge, the day
was very much Of a success.
The program was not staged until
right after dinner. The exercise had
the merit Of being brief. and every
number seemed to please, especially
the recitations by Miss Hosford and
the declamations and music.
Following the program several and
various races were pulled off on the
street, furnishing amusement for the
spectators, but leaving the worlds re
cord on all events perfectly safe.
The ball game was between the mar
ried and single men, with few excep-
tons to even things up. The single
chaps up and ran away with seven
scores the first inning, but after that
the game was close enough to tie inter
esting until another squirt on the part
of the singles placed them so far in
the lead that their victory was assured
A dance in the evening was well at

called success. 1t is the general
opinion that we should plan for another
and larger time next year and make
the exhibition Of dry land products a
prominent feature of the event.
