NOT A HERALD ARTICLE.

A friend has sent to The Herald an
article clipped from one of the state
papers and credited to The Herald,
with the inquiry whether or not it had
actually been published in The Herald.
The article Is a comment on the action
Of the state equalizing board in cut
ting down the appropriations for edu-
cational institutions. expressing APP
prevail of that act. and stating that ii
is high time that the expenditures OF
the educational institutions were
brought more directly under control OF
the state auditor and treasurer.
AS our correspondent surmises, the
article did not appear in The Herald
and 1t is therefore incorrectly credit.
ed to this paper. Moreover, its en-.
tire tone is contrary to The Herald's
views Of the situation, and it recon-
mends what The Herald believes to be
an incorrect line of policy.
Our impression is that the leeisla-
ture Of the state, and not the auditor
or treasurer, Or any other official, reg
ulate the affairs Of the institutions. If,
as n would gather from the read
ing of this stray article. it is the opin-
ion of its unknown author that the
auditor and treasurer are to exercise
a sort of supervisory and paternal-
istic authority over the institutions
which the state legislature has Great
ed. and to determine whether or not
money which the legislature has or
dered set aside for those institutions
and paid for their maintenance shall
or shall not be so set aside and SO
paid, we dissent emphatically from
such doctrine.
Fortunately the rights Of the vari-
u interests affected are to be tested
Immediately in the courts, and we will
before long have the matter settled.
This is desirable. for nothing is worse
In such a case than uncertainty.

WOULD TT MAKE MORE JOBS?

-
Chicago Herald: The Democratic
senate caucus wrangled for twelve
hours Tuesday over the war tax bill,
on which the majority members of
the finance committee have been un-
able to agree among themselves.
The caucus gave the beer tax an
other boost. to $1.75 per barrel. esti-
mated to add $~4S.O00.OOO a year to
present income from that source. 1t
found $4,000, 900 more in 5 cents a
gallon on rectifiers of whisky. 1t
struck out the proposed tax on gaso-
line, already reduced from 2 cents to
J. cent per gallon.
Another change was proposed, a SO
cents per horse power in place of the
tax on manufacturers sales of auto
mobiles, which the caucus decided to
drop. The change looks rather queer.
A tax on sales money received
would require no additional collection
machinery. Manufacturers would
make returns for 1t under the corpora
ton income tax law. But would a tax
on horse power be SO simple? Would
1t not require another lot of "inspec-
tors to make tests" to determine the
horse power of engines leaving the
factory?
The tendency of the average con-
gresham to tuck jobs for deserving
constituents into almost any bill is we'll
known. Is that the milk in this
horse power" a. c%ocoanut? Some
people would like to know.
Meanwhile, the country is far from
convinced that any war tax at all are
really necessary. The average citizen
has a growing appetite for economy
in government. The river and harbor
bill showed how money could be saw
ed.
Congressman Mann's request that
the erection Of a desirable but not i'm
mediately necessary p%ostoffice in his
own district be deferred opens UP an
other line of economy thought. But
new taxes-and more jobs to consume
them-are a combination at which
the average citizens stomach recoils.
