Governor and Economy.

The Bisbee Review is calling
Gov. Hunt to account, because it
says he promised the people an
economical administration, and
then points to the increase of
S13. 10000 in the assessment
roll, and an increase in the tax
rate of nine and a half cents on
500. The Review must have
more serious charges than these
if it expects to retire the Cover
nor next year. If there has been
added $13, 900, 900 to the tax roll
of the state in one year it means
but one Of two hings-the state
wealth has increased, or tax dod-
gers have been compelled to
make an honest return to the as
sessing authorities. Either is a
credit rather than a reflection on
the Governors administration.
Again, even if the tax rate has
been increased, and the people
get an honest dollar of value for
every dollar expended, there is
no violation of promise to give
an economical administration of
the affairs of state. Parsimony
is not synonymous with economy.
A state or a private business that
is developing and growing rapid
idly necessarily keeps spending
more money each year to keen
pace with that growth and de-
velopement, and the only place
for censure is when the money is
wantonly dissipated through cor
ruption and spoils. Arizona is
new state undergoing at this
time rapid developement, and her
growing needs make increasing
expenditures nesessary each sue
ceeding year.
We have no patience with any
class of people who are obstruc-
ZIONIST to advancement; and profit
gacy in squandering public funds
is rankest treason; but conserva-
tive spending of the peoples
money, even if it increases the
tax levy, is sound business and
economical statemanship. The
Winslow Mail is not of Governor
Hunts political faith, and will no
doubt be opposed to his re-elec-
ton, if the republicans nominate
a live, progressive candidate, but
a few more editorials from the
Review on the tax situation will
make it impossible to defeat the
Governor.

Mob law has again brought
disgrace to Georgia. Leo Frank
was kidnapped from the state
penitentiary farm Tuesday even
ing, taken near to the scene of
his alleged crime and hanged.
The vengence of the populace is
now probably satisfied, but the
crime of the moo has injured So
c;ety more than the alleged crime
of their victim. There was no
direct evidence against Frank,
except a negro, who confessed to
participating in the murder, and
implicated Frank. Because he
was Jew it was impossible for
him to get a fair trial, and his
blood was demanded. Where is
our boasted civilization?

Our democratic statesmen are
beginning to get their heads to-
gether to parcel out the several
Offices to perspiring candidates
for the general election next fall.
One crowd has a slate about
fixed, including every office from
u. S. senator down through to
the last state office. Now the
other crowd are scurr ying
around to put up a combina-
ton to represent every faction
that has votes to deliver, and
with few changes will be ready
to be offered the proletariet for
their votes. Putting up a dem
ocratic ticket is no boys job, and
that explains why only the inside
statesmen are being consulted in
the preliminary stages.

The u. S. Land, Title & Leg
acy Co. of Phoenix, is practically
in BANKRUPTCY owing to the de-
falcations of the president. Sid
Henry, who is now a fugitive
from justice. 1t is another case
of too much confidence in the in
tegrity of man. with no safe
guards surrounding him to keep
him faithful to his trust, and
many poor people who have been
investing their meager savings
with the concern find themselves
duped and robbed. Henry may
be captured, convicted and sent
to the pen, but the distress of
the poor people will not be re-
lieved. Why are such institu-
tions allowed to operate in the
state without proper state super
visions?

Galveston, Texas, has again
been visited with destructive
tidal wave. Fortunately this
time the loss of life does not ex-
ceed a score of people, but the
monetary damage will run into
the millions. After the tidal
wave of 1900, when the city was
nearly wiped out, the govern
ment built a heavy sea wall in
the hope of preventing any re-
currence of such disasters, but
ninety mile gale and the lash
ing wave. were not to be stayed
by the hand of man. The city
will no doubt rebuild again, but
it seems almost flying in the
face of Providence.

A close inspection of the roads
leading into Winslow puts us in
a position to state positively that
they are doing nothing to I'M
prove themselves. This is GER
tainly rank ingratitude. Just
why these roads don't fix them
selves up in frst-class style for
the benefit of Winslow we do
not understand, especially when
they ought to know our people
are so anxious it should be done.

Bird Law Still, Effective.

Many Of the press comments on the
decision Of the United States District
Court, rendered March 20, at Topeka,
Kansas, holding that the federal mi
gratory bird law is unconstitutional
according to the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture, are errone-
Gus and are apt to mislead the public
concerning the real situation in this
matter.
The Kansas decision, like a former
decision to the same effect in the east
ern district Of Arkansas, is limited in
its operation solely to the district in
which it was rendered. Neither de-
cision settles or nullifies the law, and
the exact contrary has been held by
the United States district court for
South Dakota. The Arkansas case
has been appealed to. and is now pend
ing in the United States Supreme
Court.
The act of Congress protecting mi
gratory birds stands effective until the
supreme court finally decides the
question Of Its constitutionality. In
the meantime. it is incumbent on ev-
cry law-abiding citizen to observe its
provisions and the regulations. 1t is
the duty Of the Department of Agri-
culture to enforce this law and the Of
ficials in charge will endeavor to do SC
as long as it is in force Reports OF
violations will be carefully investi-
gated and when sufficient evidence is
secured they will be reported for pros
ecution. In this connection it should
not be forgotten than an offender
against this. as in the case Of other
United States laws, is subject to
prosecution any time within three
years from the date the offense is
committed.
