FARMERS DEMAND LOWER TAXES

Last week the farmers of Cache
county perfected an organization
one member coming from every pre-
cinct In the county, the purpose OF
which Is to secure lowering Of the
taxes. The Cache county taxpayers
say that their taxes have become 80
burdensome that they can hardly
meet them when due. They will hold
another meeting in the near future,
when steps will be taken to make the
movement statewide.
Taxpayers In this section have ex-
pressed q desire to cooperate with
the Cache county taxpayers for some
kind of relief. One business man is
authority for the statement that the
taxes could be reduced one-fourth II
state, county and municipal affairs
were run on a business basis, instead
Of political patronage entering into
the expenditures as they do. He
would have a careful examination
made Of every expenditure during the
past year with the idea Of making a
saving wherever possible. He points
out two instances of waste. One was
a deliberate gift OF hundreds OF dol
lars to Provo newspaper when the
same work could have been done &c
per cent more effectively at 80 per
cent OF the cost. Another instance
would mean the saving Of hundreds
Of dollars in the collection Of taxes
This year $50 each was paid to depu-
ties in every town in the county FOR
collecting taxes. These taxes could
just as well be collected by the banks
which could give receipts for the
taxes paid, and we are told that they
would be glad to do the work gratis
providing the funds were left In the
banks in the several towns. instead
OF being centered in some favoritc
bank of the county treasurer a
Provo. at no profit to any one excep
the bank and the treasurer.

OF the time. The consumer also knows
that stores that are aggressive adver-
Users nearly always offer more attrac-
tive bargains than do those who do not
advertise. The consumer knows that
the store that advertise sell so much
more goods that they can offer better
prices. The consumer further knows
through experience that the store IT,
advertises goods isn't doing so for the
fun Of It, but to move the goods, and
good business instinct tells the adver-
tiser that the quickest way to move
the goods he's advertising is to print
an attractive price.
Somebody, however, pays the bill,
and 1t Is the loser. And the loser is
the manufacturer, broker or retailer
who has huge sum OF money tied W
In slow moving lines-who, In orr
to get back reasonable sum on his
investment, must charge accordingly
Another loser Is the person who buys
these goods"
Consumers naturally gyrate to those
business houses Of which they read in
the newspapers. A person seeing @
well displayed advertisement in his
paper will hearken to its bidding Il
he needs or thinks he can use any c
the goods offered II he Is not in
position to do either at that time h,
keeps the store in mind when he doe
