FUNDS the same argument ought to hold

mat the state Institution construction
oiii reflects the strength OF the pres

merit OF the case
Having disposed OF the claim made
by the Republican leaders that this

cause OF last years neglect-a claim
made entirely for political purposes a
consideration which ought not to have
any place In the adjustment OF the
states business policy--let us make an
examination of what the appropriations
are with regard to their political rela-
ton. and whether on their merits they
are justified
The first thing that attracts the at
tention OF one looking at the appropria-
ton bills from a purely business stand
point IL the fact tina; in the several bills
more than Sl.000,000 in increases OF
salaries or new salaries are provided
This is a fact that the bills themselves
show. which can not he denied and at
the same time reflects the real policy
which is being pursued.
Increases In salaries and new salaries
are neither deficiencies nor necessities.
Nearly every department shows in
creases IN salaries and new positions.
Apparent decreases in the totals oc-
cur only where the depa rtments carry
over such large balances that an in
crease In the appropriation would be
indefensible All through the bills are
large items OF sl5O.00c and $4,000
which are absolutely unnecessary, and
which we are charitable enough to bee
lieve were placed in the bills through
ignorance.
NO Governor has ever had such a
great opportunity to serve the public as
Gov Whitman. The harm which the
enormous increase OF taxation will pro-
duce is not imaginary.
III the Governor will require that ne
he shown about the necessity Of every
item in these large appropriation bills
and will eliminate those which are UNI
justiiiable at this time he will have no
great difficulty in reducing the appro-
priations 10 a point which will permit
him to veto the direct tax bill and leave
only the sinking fund contributions TO
be raised by direct tax, which could be
done by the Comptroller without any
further authority from the Legislature.

WHITMAN VETO

PITS THE BLAME on

AtEA>r. April ?j.--Gov whitman
through the use of the veto can reverse

state machine. inaugurated through its
legislative leaders. and prevent the direct
tax levy of nearly S2o.oo0,00 and the
secured debt. liquor tax and other

Adjourned early this morning.
Despite the fact that the last ripper
Bill to ne pissed by the Legislature was
the one catapultng Mr.. Harris out of his
$4,000 state Office as barge canal land
appraiser. because he exposed the Re-
5000 0oo direct tan. Mr.. Harris said
that the Democratic leaders of the
legislature ard himself. who are famil-
lar with the financial conditions of the
State treasury. are willing to offer their
services to Gov. Whitman to aid him
IN using the pruning knife in order to
avoid this big direct tax.
ANY just criticism OF the appropria-
tlon programme, WHICH has resulted in a
.eyy Of a direct tax OF 10000, 900" said
Mr.. Harris. must take into considera-
ton the conditions which have produced
such result.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1915-04-26
The Underlying Conditions.

In the first place the We Of the
legislature represents the avowed policy
Of the Republican leaders for twenty
years back, who have constantly MAIN
aimed that the people were not inter-
ested in questions of economy. tina, as
a political proposition the levy of large
direct tax would not change the party
oyalty Of the voters.
Again We have had a determined
persistent effort to play politics with the
States finances, which began during the
as, campaign and which the Republican
leaders have continued during the ses-
sion Of the Legislature.
Neither of these considerations, how
ever. would have beea sufficient to pro-
duce The enormous burden of taxation
which the people are now to meet If il
we're not for two other factors in the
situation.
out Of power for four years. there
vas no one In the majority who had any
Intimate Knowledge of the States
finances So IL was an easy matter for
the leaders TO appeal TO party spirit 10
support a programme which the MEM
bers Of the Legislature themselves knew
iothirg about.
The legislators as whole take the
statements Of their leaders without
question and without Investigation.
THE other factor is that the dominat-
ng force Of the Legislature was the
majority leader of the Senate. man
whose whole career has been devoted TO
the art of playing politics. \ rather
careful study of his career for twenty
years will show that he has never been
Connected with any public measure for
the measures sake, but always for pur-
poses of playing politics.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1915-04-26

The other side of the financial pro-
sramme shows even more forcibly the
folly of the present legislature. The
revenue measures which have been
passed are not to increase the revenues
of this fiscal year but are TO provide
additional revenues for next year. IL
Is almost incredible that the Legisla-
ture should not have seen this.
mo man who has given any study TO
the subject OF indirect taxation can fall
to see that the change in business condi-
tions which is already apparent will
make the indirect revenues of next. year
higher than they ever were before. II
Gov Whitman will insist upon getting
his facts first hand and base his action
upon accurate knowledge of his own. he
can safely veto the bills authorizing new
forms OF taxation even IL he should feel
constrained to approve most OF the APP
propriations.
1T Is a most unfortunate thing that
a desire to play politics has created
party feeling sufficient to jam through
the Legislature the appropriation and
tax programme OF this year realize
the partisan advantage which Will
accrue to those opposed to the party IN
pow-r by having this programme. But
in spite Of that ! feel that all of us VINO
are familiar with the real facts in re-
lation to the states finances ought to
offer our services to the Governor with
the hope that he will rise above poll
tics and prevent what must be a great

Most Remarkable Free Exhibition.

Moving Picture Lecture of Maxwell Factories to be given at the Elks Opera House Monday night, Feb. l.
 On Monday night M. G. Wagner the local dealer for the Maxwell Motor Sales Corporation will present for the entertainment of the public, free moving picture lecture entitled "From Molten Steel to Automobile which has created one of the big sensations in the moving picture world and is one of the most instructive entertainments that Kingman has ever witnessed.
 There are four thousand feet of moving picture film, and every detail pertaining to the manufacture of up- to-date motor cars shown.
 Beginning with the steel mills the work is carried down on thru the chemi- cal laboratories, the foundry, forge and machine departments. The assembly departments are shown in detail and a complete automobile is made, assem- bled and tested right before the aud fence.
 Another added feature---and by far the most novel attraction---will be views of the Maxwell car in the various parts of the country. This has taken the form of a travelogue and some wonderful bits of scenery, as we'll as races, hill climbs, etc., are shown.
 MT. L. w. Vandersall, factory Rep resentative, will accompany the pictures and lecture on them.
 We feel that such instructive as well as interesting and entertaining lectures as these, should be encouraged by the residents of Kingman and hope that all will attend.
 Free tickets of admission may be ob- tained at the Old Trails Garage. The pictures will be shown at 7:30 and 8:3C P. M.
