The Luxuries Of Government.

While we are talking about special
sessions, legislatures and expenses of
government, it is we'll to consider the
luxuries of government which are re-
ally responsible for high taxes. To
day the people demand more of their
government than they have ever de-
manded in the past. We have delegat-
ed to the government the regulation
of about everything under the sun and
at the same time insist upon greater
participation in government BY the
people. Both cause higher cost of
governemnt Let us illustrate. Can
yon county has prohibited the sale of
liquors in the county. There is today
just as many peace officers in the
prived ourselves of certain revenue
without reducing the cost of govern
ment in proportion and higher direct
taxes are the result. The advantages
of saloonless county are too numer-
GUS and obvious to mention, but they
are not in the shape of lower taxes.
Canyon county insists upon mainten-
ance of sanitary conditions and the
suppression of disease. 1t has pro-
vided officers to enforce sanitation
laws. The people derive a great ben
eft as they do from the local option
law but the cost of government is in
creased. The people wanted the d.
rect primary law. 1t gives them a
powerful voice in the nomination of
candidates for Office but it is costing
them hundreds of thousands of dollars
per year. They will soon have the
initiative. referendum and recall, each
of WHICH will cost hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars per year. but each of
them will give the people still great
er voice in government. So it goes.
The more we get the more we have
to pay. Whether some of these
things are worth the money is serious
ly questiond by many. The Tribune
does not think that the direct primary.
initiative, referendum and recall are
worth the paper they are written upon.
We are in doubt about other govern
mental activities As time solves all
things it will sooner or later teach the
people what government luxuries are
really desirable.

Good Roads Meeting Called.

From nearly every city in the state, comes the news of a clos ing of business houses for the good roads days upon September 3 and 4 and the announcement that citizens in general will don their overalls and working clothes and contribute two days labor to the betterment of the roads.
 What are we going to do here ? Not in Jackson County particu- larly, but we business and pro- fessional men of Newport. Are the newspapers of the state to chronicle the achievements of nearly every city and hamlet in the state and leave NeWrS
 Surely not.
 To your public pride, your in terest in Newport's material vel fare and growth, let the appeal be driven home, that we must take up the slogan of the hour and do service for our section. The man, who cannot give his own time, should at least employ substitute and make these two days an awakening of our peo- pie to the value, yes the necessi- ty of better roads, if we are to have a trade territory that will maintain a city.
 The county judge has suggest ed that Newport citizens con- tribute their work toward the improvement of the Oil Trough road from the ferry west to the ncounty line and we think it a sErood one. But the movement @ lst be organized, to solicit 1 ms, funds, dinners for the 1en and general participa- t6 lpon the part of the people E these purposes and any s0 Ts incidental to the success 1 .nis campaign, public meet smg of our business men and cit izens is called for 10 o'clock Monday morning at the court house.

GUS performers quit in early prime.
 But are these the real ath- letes? How much more true an ath- Iete is the average farmer, who at 65 can pitch more hay than his son or grandson?
 The best athleticism is that which holds through the ripe i years, and enables a man to sit on his horse as erectly at 80 as at 20.
 A New York financier has an- nounced his theory that his good health at the age of 88 is due to his policy of mixing good work with play.
 Russell Sage, who was nearly 90, passed practically his whole life in unremitting labor with no vacations.
 John D. Rockefeller, who at the age of "A, is hale and hearty, gives much time to golf and other exercises.
 Andrew Carnegie at 75, is about as lively specimen of humanity as could be imagined, and has a wide variety of diver sions.
 Surely here are sufficient mo- table instances of strenuous ath- ,leticism at advanced age to prove that thiry y-fve years is not the maximum, if the athlet- icism be real, and not an imita- tion.
 Multimillionaires are given be- cause that is the class of people the American people pay most attention to, and try hardest to initiate, and for the further req son that all of them have led very busy lives.
 Taken collectively, they pre- sent important evidence of the value of toll and temperance.
 But these are by no means h. nique. Millions of men and wo- men have had health as the re- suit of steady activity, and are still strong, active and serene in old age.
 The kind of athleticism that fails at 35 is the wrong kind of athleticism.
 It IS the tense, violent, VlrtuO- so sort of skill in mere spectac. ular accomplishment.
 The test of real athleticism is health and activity in old age.
 Healthful and happy old age is the final proof of right living.
 And the farmer at 65, who does as much work as his son, or as he himself did at 30, and with as keen zest, is as good an example as the liveliest million aire.-Memphis News-Scimitar.
