NNHftd&O Evening tasttf
Suppose MIR Ford's optimism ran
away with him little bit, the fact
remains, safely beyond the sneers of
the New York sun, that today over
loo ex-convicts are working their
way back To self-fespect and good
citizenship in the Ford factories
Surely that fact deserves better than
scorn from those who care at all for
the worth Of a human soul.
AS for the 100000 jdbless men in
New York, IL the sun were less of
cynlc and more Of constructive
force in its community it might be
accomplishing something toward soly-
ing that problem. And il would be
better employed in the effort.
Mr. Ford has tackled q bigger task
than finding jobs for the ldle--he is
providing faith for men who had for
teited the trust Of their fellows. and
who. facing the world again. find only
suspicion and DISTRICT to greet them.
Thousands of men have talked SYM
pathetieallE Of the convict Few
have done what Mr. Ford Is doing
given him their confidence and a
chance 20 make good.

THE EXPOSITION MUST BE
CARED FOR.

II Is to be hoped that the leglsla-
ture will appropriate money enough
to make the state exhibit at the san
Diego exposition success with the
more than $4,000 expended already
by the state, the various counties ana
corporations for what ia conceded to
he the most unique and attractive ex-
hlbit on the ground, complete success
Should not be jeopardiged for lack Of
the necessary funds TO handle the
situation property,
Thousands Of people from this
state VIII go To San Diego during the
summer Last year there was little
travel to tho Pacific coast from this
section because the people had the
exposition in mind and began saving
up for a longer and more expensive
soiourn there than had been their
custom for summer outings.
When people OF New Mexico 80 to
the exposition, they should find
everything in such condition as to re-
fleet credit upon the state. We un-
derstand there is little opposition ia
the legislature to an appropriation or

equal to the amount that would have
been expended had the bureau Of Inn

MERELY COMMENT

Last year George Reynolds headed
a bunch of begging bankers before
the board of review,
And got tax reduction of Is per
cent. ..
Now George is at it again and says
bank taxes ought to be reduced 20
per cent more.
But what does the LAW say?
Go by what the law says rather
than by what George Reynolds and
the poverty-stricken millionaire bank
ers say.
George may think he is the law, but
he isn't. He's only two-legged man
like the rest of us.
Well, what of it? Suppose Bill
Thompson and his crowd do beat out
the West-Deneen outfit
Matters couldn't we'll be worse,
and they may be better.
In the meantime, if Lowden is a
candidate it may put some of the
Pullman fortune in active circulation.
Will Jake Loeb wind up in the goat
department of the. News-Trib zoo?
1t looks as if the newspaper bosses
who went after the teachers fedora
ton are in for good licking.
BY the way, the big, fat brewers
and the street railway magnates also
want special tax privileges from the
board of review.
Yet the policy of all taxing boards
h. -s1r6R Ill i
special privileges to none.
As for the brewers, they saddle all
their taxes onto the, saloonkeepers
anyway;
And have been so h5ggish with the
retail beer-seIlers that they have
driven them to all sorts of tricks to
earn a living.
The brewing business is largely re-
sponsible for the degeneration of the
American saloon,
