TAX COMMISSIONER EXPLAINS REPORT
 OF AUDITOR
Makes Reply to Interpretation Placed Upon Section of Annual Report Relating to Per Capita Cost of the State Government.
PER CAPITA COST S5.33
Included in Auditors Report is $1,- 5oO,000 Not A Dollar of Which State Puts To It's Own Use But Transmits To Several Counties.

Controverting a statement made in Interpretation of a part of the annual report of State Auditor Callaghan, and intended to eKaggerate the per capita expenditures of the public money for state purposes, Charles R. Howe, chairman of the tax commis- sion, yesterday prepared the follow ing analysis of that part of the re- port. Mr. Howe relieves the state auditor of any intention that such a ase 50 damaging to the state should be made of his report:
 Phoenix, January 21, 1916. To the Editor of the Prescott
 Courier.
 Sir: I have been requested to an- alyze that portion of the state audi ors report in which he has been quoted for the past year as stating that the state expenditures of Ari- zona are s11.76 per capita" and con- pairing with New Mexico's at $3.00.
 To begin with, the auditors raHor: does not make any such statement, nor. does the auditor lay claim % any such eNtravagant figures, as the true state expenditures.
 It is unfortunate for purposes of statistics, only, that the state of Ari- Z0ua dCJS as COll0CIlOu dS0uCy IOI all of the counties and some of the cities, and that nearly a million and a half dollars is shown in the audi tors report as Expenditures from alI funds,'' not a dollar of which the state puts to ITS OWN USES, but on the contrary transmits to the county treasurers of the several coun ties, and is actually included by THEM in THEIR respective county expenditures
 The auditors report for the year 1914 shows the total amount of money passing through his hands for she fiscal year 1913-14, and which is properly chargeable to the state, twelve of fourteen counties, and the cities of Prescott, Tombstone and Tucson, as a total net sum
 of ....... $2,912, ,190.17
 From the above total the following sums must be deducted to find true
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1916-02-04

from which it would take years to recover.
 believe that those who are re- sponsible for the publication Of the misleading report have been misin- formed ,and after a consultation with the auditor and verffication of the figures I have herein shown, will note that the continued misleading and odious comparisons can only have one result, that is, to drive away prospective settlers and investors, that the entire state,and particularly the farming communities stand so much in need Of.
 Certainly no god results can be hoped for by the continued inference that New Mexico is a better stat e to live in from a taxation standpoint than is Arizona.
 Such continued disparagement of our state will do more harm than a consistent campaign of advertising can overcome in years.
 Very truly yours, CHAS. R. HOWE, Chairman, State Tax Commission.

BOOZE BURIED IN PASTURE.

Through the accidental discovery of approximately 175 pints of good whiskey in field near Miami Sun day afternoon, the authorities be- lieve they have closed another ave nue of importation to the genius home bootlegger in Gila county. The exhiliarating nectar was found buried in a pasture belonging to Jake McLane, by some small boys who were playing in that vicinity.
 The owner of the property was notified of the buried treasure by the lads and promptly made an in- vestigation, after which the sheriff was notified that a ledge of liquor, that would assay about S3 50 a pint had been struck on his claim, but he was not sure of the size of the vein.

 The school census of Arizona in 1910 showed the total number of children of school age in the territory as 39,611 and the federal census showed total population of 204, ,354, 
 more than five to one.
 The state ischol census of 1914 showed the total number of children of school age as 53,S45; using the ratio of five to one, established in 1910, by the government census, as a basis shows a total population in 1914, the year of the auditors re- port, of 269,225.
 Using the above number as a divisor and the actual state eXrend-- lures of $1 ,433, ,317.59 as the divi :en1 the quotient is found to be $5 .33, or the actual per capital state expendi- lures of Arizona.
 The tax commission is just in re- ceipt of a communication from w. G.

 Using the above divisor and divi, dend shows New MeXico's per capita state tax as slightly more than $500
 Ita will be noted that in each case the auditors report has been taken and not that of the secretary of state, who in no instance supervises the financial affairs of a state.
 This article is written with nc other intent than that Arizona may not be discredited when compared with her sister state, New Mexico. I feel sure that Auditor Callaghan will verify the statements I have made in so far as they refer to the amounts shown in his report as eX penditures, that the state in no man ner uses, but which are actually collected and turned over to the counties and spent BY AND FOR THEM. Nor do I believe for one moment that Mr. Callaghan, even by inference, intended to show so odious comparison as he has been quoted as showing, which if true, would cer- ltainly cast a stigma over the state

was hasty scrawl, bore Leila's ini-
tials, with the enigmatic words: Il
shall fool them yet, and you-I shall
never forget"
Striving to believe that something
might intervene to delay or prevent
the wedding, Ware had fingered about
the town after Leila's return from the
city. but now. within twenty-four
hours of the ceremony, he abandoned
all hope. A willing bride or sacri-
fee, Leila had chosen, or had been
forced to choose stupid but wealthy
Boyd Weaver as her life companion.
Therefore Randall Ware was about to
fly to familiar solitary haunts, to hide
himself. to mourn in secret, to try
to forget
1t was strange coincidence, he re-
flected. as he was driven from the
remote pineries station to the old
camping place he and his friends had
so often visited, that he passed the
summer home of a cousin of Leila s.
In fact. it was here that he had first
met Leila. That was the previous sea-

and of his family.
it was quite dusk as the old buck
board wagon passed the Lodge, as it
was called. and Ware noticed lights
moving about the place.
THE Davenals here?" he inquired
of the driver.
Yes, and going to stay into deer
time, l hear" replied the native.
From the direction of the bungalow
merry voices echoed out as the wagon
passed on. Ware WINGED; it all re-
minded him of the pleasant hours he
had spent at that spot in the company
of Leila.
The old camping place was five
miles farther on through the woods.
AS they arrived at the old cabin, look
ing lonely and desolate in the mel
ancholy moonlight, Ware spoke to the
driver
my man." he said. mo one who
knows me saw me arrive at the sta
ton except yourself"
Eyes, SIR" nodded the man inquisi-
lively.
Keep it quiet from everybody" said
Ware, handing the man double fee.
"You can run up with your team. say
twice a week. and get my orders for
supplies"
yes sir. thank you, SIR" bobbed
the driver. "Pm mum as midnight"
At times Ware had really believed
that he would become a hermit, and
that permanently. The cheerless as

"Blood and Iron"

What is the real origin of the ia
nous phrase commonly believed to
have been used for the first time by
Bismarck? We all. OF course, know
that in the Prussian diet of 1862 Bis
marck declared: The great questions
are to be settled, not by speeches and
majority resolutions. but by blood
and iron" The belief here avowed
remained with the chancellor to the
end, for in his Memoirs he repeated
the declaration thus: I'VE could get
no nearer the goal by speeches, asso-
Citations, decisions of majorities; we
should be unable avoid serious con-
test which could only be settled by
blood and iron" Bismarck, we may
assume, when first using the words,
had in mind familiar song written
during the war of liberation against
Napoleon by Max Won Schenkendorff,
in which occur the lines:
Nur Eisen kann uns retten
Und erlosen kann nur Blut!
Only iron can save us, and blood
alone can set us free"-a prophecy,
the Prussian believes, fulfilled in the
craftsmanship of Bismarck.

Randall Ware had read in some book
or newspaper that there are animals
which, when desperately wounded.
seek some secluded solitary spot in
which they may die peacefully. This
required to him as he gloomily picked
up his sportsman's outfit, preparatory
to speedy dash for the wilderness.
For he lad been grievously wound
ed-in his affection, it was true, but
all that was worth striving for seemed
to have gone out of his life and he
was inclined to give up the struggle
This had happened; The young lady
with whom he was desperately in
love. and who he was assured sincerely
returned his affection, was about to
marry another. This was her wedding
eve. 1t had been torment unutterable
to remain in the same town where she
was, but jealously guarded from his
company-it was slow torture now to
linger within the echoes of wedding
bells that might peal forth the joy of
others, but to him misery-his doom!
1t was all the fault of purse-proud,
autocratic parents. If Leila Bridges
had gone so far as to engage herself
to Ware the latter would have stood
his ground and maintained his rights
AS it was, while eye to eye had spo-
ken unutterable devotion. no definite
promise had passed between them.
Ware had been refused admittance to
the Bridges home, Leila was whisked
away to a whirl of social gayety in
the city. Only one tiny note, evident
