the announcement that the militant
leader is coming to this country-to
San Francisco
Instead of preparations for a
rousing, enthusiastic reception to
Mrs Pankhurst upon her landing in
this country, there comes an ominous
rumor from the east that suggestions
have been conveyed to the immigra-
tion authorities to bar Mrs. Pankhurst
as an undesirable citizen. Coinci-
dentally the news has met with va
ried sentiments by California suf-
fragettes and clHbwomen. :
HER COMING ALARMS SOME
1t Is even greeted with evidence of
real alarm. Mrs. Pankhurst, some
declare, will create an impression
greatly to the detriment of the cause
rather than a stimulus to the women
of this country. 1t is even said that
homes, both as represented by the
material shell of the house and by the
inner harmony of the family ties,
might be in grave danger of destruc-
tion by the ardent Briton.
Then comes the other faction.

stow a blessing on the women's cause
of suffrage in this country.
MAJORITY NOT AFRAID OF HER
The majority of clubwomen and
leaders In California interviewed at
random are inclined to view with In
difference the arrival of the woman
who has proven herself such terror
to the British authorities.
IT might be interesting to ascertain
whether Mrs. Pankhurst intends to
introduce her British ways and means
to her sisters in this new land she Is
about to invade. Taking the Views as
expressed by the aforementioned ma
jority, Mrs. Pankhurst can do little
harm in that direction. Neither do
they fear that she will herself be per-
mitted to threaten with destruction
the lives or property OF those In au-
thority
One thing is certain: A constantly
increasing curiosity as to just what
she really does intend to do will be
gratified by her appearance.
The opinions of Californians are
given herewith.

Full Cash Value,

Governor Ammons and he state tax
commission have ordered I he county as
SCISSORS to assess all property at full
cash value.
The Herald predicted some time ago
that this would be the move made by
the Ammons state administration to se-
cure enough state revenue to lift the
administration out of the financial hole
into which the Shafroth administrations
had dropped the finances of the state.
The demand for additional state funds
was such that it was absolutely neces.
sary to adopt one of two courses of ac.
tion. either issue state bonds or assess
property at its full cash value. The
latter course has been adopted and the
county assessors were called to Denver
this week to receive their orders. The
assessors have been gwen to understand
that they will get themselves into troub
lie with the powers that be IL they fail
to obey orders IN making their assess
ments.
The democratic papers. as 4 matter
of course, are attempting to quiet the
fears Of the taxpayers by saying that
the state levy Of mills can be reduced
IL the assessment is made at full cash
value but they are offering any guar.
anty that this change will not result in
higher taxes for the property owners,
The main object in ordering this full
cash value assessment Of property is to
increase the state revenue and the
state revenue cannot be increased by
such change without increasing the
taxes Of the people. II might as well
be admitted by those officials who have
ordered this change in assessment. that
they expect the Taxpayers to pay an
increased tax sufficient to make up the
present md prospective shortage in
state revenue. OF course II IL woll G.
nough for them to talk about lowering
the tax levy but there will be no low
ering OF the mill tax levy unless they
are confronted with the dead certainty
OF surplus In state revenue, something
unknown to the state Administrations
since the republicans turned the bus
ness Of the state over to the democrats
four years ago.

The Newes Shaving Process


The men of Chicago have suddenly &C
quired an attractive complexion. The
reason for this is, that they are now
shaving their faces with the newest pro
cess, called "the Velvet Edge Safety
Razor Blade Sharpener," which gives
that velvety smooth skin to the con
stant shaver.
You men who use safety razors and
want velvety skin, shaved with the
delicate softness so much desired, with
keen cutting edge, send your old safe
ty razor blades at once to Chicago, and
have them sharpened by the newesty G.
lectrical process, which makes the old
blade cut better than the new, and your
old blades are returned to you perfect
new blade. t
Don't throw away your old salty ra-
zor blades, but send them to-day, well
wrapped, and do not delay it until to-
morrow.
Price. 30c per dozen for all safety ra
for blades, which include Gillettes, Ev
er-Ready, Gem, Auto-strop. Enders.

Your blades will be returned to you in
a few days, charges prepaid. Ssnd

The democrats figure that the pas
srge of their tariff bill as proposed will
cut of $50, 900, 900 from the government
revenue as the tariff now stands. II is
a decidedly lucky thing for the demo-
cratic tariff-tinkers that the income tax
amendment to the national constitution
was submitted by n republican congress
just at the right time to be ratified by
the required number Of states in time
to help the present democratic congress
carry out its tariff program. II 1t were
not for the fact that they know that
the income tax will furnish many mil
lions government revenue, the demo-
caats would not dare reduce the tariff
revenue eighty million or any thing like
1t, for IL they did, the treasury would
soon show shortage and they would
be forced to follow the precedent OF the
last democratic president by going on
to the market with bond issue.
