Federal Drivers Not Exempt.

Complaint has been made from time to
time that government yehiclists seem
to think they are exempt from the reg
ulations governing traffic. The question
of municipal and governmental vehicles
disobeying has arisen from time to time.
One correspondent today comp aimed OF
the mail wagons disobeying several rules.
Several observations of the automobiles
of the Post Office Department have re-
suited in the belief that many of them
speed frequently.
Maj Richard Sylvester, chief of po-
lice said today that a number of ar
rests had been made of the mail wagon
drivers and others and that the chauf-
feL>-s and drivers in this class We're not

Speaker Clark's View.

Speaker Clark thinks 1.-The principal
reason why they eXpatriate themselves is
the lure of cheaper lands and less strin-
Consequently. Congress should make our
homestead conditions easy as pos
sible. compa tible with safety, and should
increase the area for home-building by
Judicious announcement of both irriga-
ton and drainage
Many of us who have given this sub
ject careful study do not agree with
Mr. Clark as to the reason he gives
for this loss to our citizenship. 1.-THE
lure of cheaper lands doubtless has
something to do with inducing farmers
to emigrate to Canada, but the con-
trolling factor is the fact that the
Canadian provinces in which American
farmers are settling and making their
homes exempt improvements and per-
soma, property from taxation. while
our idiotic, standpat taxing laws tax
all improvements the farmer puts on
his land, his farm implements, his crops
and every head of stock he gathers
about him. AS long as we fine our
farmers for being industrious and
thrifty by our unjust and inequitable
tax laws il is use .ess for Congress
to pass laws to increase our area for
home building even if such Legislation
