of some officer or board to prepare
an accurate estimate of the revenue
reasonably to be expected and of
passing upon and carefully consider
ing all proposed appropriations and
preparing as appropriation bill to
meet the needs of the State and which
shall come within the estimated reve-
nues.
"This should not be new officer
or board and would not involve any
additional salaries, as the board might
be composed of the Governor, the
Comptroller and the Attorney Cen
eral, elected by the people, who would
serve without additional compensa-
ton, or, as has been suggested, the
Comptroller may be charged with the
preparation of a budget. Certainly
that officer should be required to
make more ineligible reports-such
as would furnish the Legislature and
the public with such information as
the condition of the States finances
source and expenditures for every
purpose"
II shall, if elected Governor. ear
nestly recommend to the Legislature
to voluntarily commit itself to this
system until the same can be made
obligatory by constitutional provision
if necessary"
Senator Lee next referred to the
necessity that the Attorney-G General
have a department which should ham
die all the States legal business and
to the question of consolidating some
of the State boards. Regarding the
latter he said:
"The multiplication of State boards,
each with an attending salary and
expense list, has reached a point where
it should not only be stopped, but
where great saving can be made to
the State by the consolidation of many
of the existing boards and the substi-
tuition in many instances of single
executive officer for a board compos-
ed Of number of persons"

Blair Lee Opens Campaign For Governor

u. S. Senator Blair Lee opened his
Gubernatoral campaign on Tuesday
night with several largely attended
pubic meetings at which he made
addresses ard outlined some of the
things for which he stands. Mr.. Lee
said in part:
The people Of the State are face
to face with serious problems. The
State must not be laggard; we must
keep abreast Of the times; we must
move forward with steady progress.
At the same time we must not permit
the burden OF taxes to become too
heavy upon the people. How to con-
tinue the Improvements of our high
ways and other measures for the pro-
gress of the State and at the same
time find means to keep the tax rate
within reasonable bounds is problem
which will demand the entire time,
the earnest efforts and the best
thought of the next Governor of this
State.
States His Plans.
1T is proper to state briefly some
of the plans which have in mind for
giving the State progressive, eco

GENTLY Interested in new crops to give
them a trial, though we would hardly
advise every farmer until more is
known of the value of this crop, to put
in quite so much as a starter. This Is
a very important demonstration and
to be of value to the community. Far
mers should watch it closely, for from
the reports from the Western States
the neglected weed sweet clover, prom

Use to reduce the high cost of living,
the Democratic administration finds
itself forced to publish statistics it
has collected proving that retail prices
in 1914 We're, on an average, 2 per cent
higher than in 1918. Everybody knew
that prices were higher and many
people will be ready to believe that 2
per cent increase is a low estimate.
Even a per cent increase means
much to those American workmen who
lost their jobs because a Democratic
tariff threw our markets open to the
products of workmen in Europe and
Asia.
