POCLE-SiSK.

On Saturday evening, January 15, 1916, Miss Dorothy Elizabeth Poole, the beautiful and talent ed daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. L.. Poole of this city, and H. R. Sisk, advertising and circulation manager of the Daily Herald, were married at the home of the brides parents on Noon street.
 The wedding was a surprise to the many friends of this young couple, as they had kept their plans very quiet, not even tell ing their intimate friends that they were contemplating a we'd ding at this time.
 They will reside at 4S4 Elm street, where Mir. Sisk had 8 home already prepared for his bride
 A. G. Fletcher acted as best man and Miss Ethel Poole as the bridesmaid. The ceremony was performed by Rev. B. H. Moberly, pastor of the Metho- dist Episcopal church of this city.
 MT. Sisk has been valued emplOye Of the Herald for the past eight months, coming here from the Fl PasO Herald, where he had been employed for some time. He has made many friends since joining the Herald force, where he has made himself pop ular with his fellow employees.
 Mrs. Sisk is a talented young lady with a lovely disposition, and one who has endeared herself to the many girl friends that she has in the city.
 The Herald joins the many friends of this worthy couple in wishing them a very happy and prosperous journey through life. May their joys be eternal and their troubles of a minor char acter.

Knights of Columbus.

That the coming state conven- tion of the Knights of Colum bus will be held at Tucson in May or June, instead of at Nogales, as had originally been intended, was announced at the memorial meeting of the order held at the lodge headquarters in the Odd Fellows building Tuesday even ing, says the Tucson Star.
 Nogales had been designated as the place for meeting but on account of the newness of the lodge it was thought that it would be better to hold the meeting at Tucson, so the Nogales members requested that Tucson entertain the meeting. Extensive prepar- ations for the lodge meeting will be made by the Tucson members. Several hundred delegates from all parts of the state are expect ed.
 An eloquent memorial address was given by Frank J. Barry, Nogales attorney. John I. Reilly, of Tucson, gave the eulogy. A quartet consisting of MessrS. Jacome, Duffy, Miranda and Father Duvall sang. Organist Mango played the accompani- mentS.
 It was announced that the sec- ond and third degrees of the or ders would be conferred at meeting at Tucson Feruary 13.

Passing of a Good Woman.

The sudden, untimely passing of Mrs. Charley Harrison, of Duquesne, at the St. Joseph'S Hospital last Saturday, is deeply regretted by hundreds of friends of the lady in Santa Cruz county, who loved and respected her.
 On Friday Mrs Harrison was taken i'll at her Duquesne home and immediately brought to the Sisters hospital, where a baby boy was born during the night.
 Everything known to medical science was done to save the mother, who passed away about one o'clock Saturday morning, her husband being with her when the end came.
 Mrs. Harrison had resided in Santa Cruz county many years; she was the mother of twelve children, ten of whom survive her. A daughter, Miss Mary, one of the teachers in the Need les, California public school and Frank and lily, two sons, students at the State Normal, arrived in time for the funeral which was held Monday afternoon, at Du- Quesne.
 To the grief stricken husband and children we extend our sympathy in this their hour of sorrow.

Samples of good ore from the Buena Vista mines adjoining the Three R copper bonanza, near Patagonia, were brought to the city this week. It was taken from a new strike recently made. The property is owned by the Arizona-European Mining Com pany, in which a number of Mo- gales people are financially in terested. Considerable pay-ore has in the past been taken from the Buena Vista, which experts say is a very valuable property.

FINANCES OF THE
STATE IN DARK
Professor Howard r. Lewis
Writes on Work of the
Tax Commission.

That 1t Is difficult to estimate the
work OF the Idaho tax commission
when It was in existence, especially in
the collecting and presenting Of finan-
cial facts with regard to taxation, is
the opinion Of Professor Howard I.
Lewis. head Of the department OF
economics at the University of Idaho.
III an article just released in the News
Letter, published weekly by the uni
versity, covering events Of interest
there, Mr. Lewis writes under the cap
ton, 'Idahois Finances in the Dark,
as follows:
Defect In Administration.
10 the man who has given consider
alton to the question Of taxation, it
may appear that the greatest single
defect in the tax laws Of Idaho lies in
the administration. Nor can there be
much question but that for some rea-
son or other, there is a most serious
weakness at this point. Yet it can be
truthfully said that more fundamental
even than this is the lack Of authortta-
tive information distributed broadcast
and in easy understandable form.
Without such information, misconcep-
ton and suspicion rise on every hand.
Inability to secure dependable data
makes for more long continued ineff
cheney than any otner one thing. Peo-
pie are interested in knowing whether
current expense" in Lenlhi county is
more or less than in Lewis and why.
They want suffice nformation to
determine the pei ga of the state
tax that goes for ST 5eatlon, for judi
tel
TO know the various sources of rev.
enue, and the total each yields. In no
other way can they keep a check on the
cost Of government Moreover, they
want these and similar data compiled
In such form that the results can be
told at a glance without wading
through numerous tables, with the de-
sired facts widely scattered. and their
conclusions consequently of dubious
value. One Of the very first things
Idaho needs is a revision in the method
Of collecting and presenting financial
facts.
Praise for Commission.
Yet this change must needs rest up
on another-uniformity and complete
ness-accounting So little do we have
of this and so inefficient is the present
law concerning it that several counties
have been forced to hire expert &C.
countants from outside in order TO find
out how they stand financially. The
state itself has been forced to do this
same thing. Consequently the state is
forced to suffer loss Of thousands of
dollars. The warrant indebtedness OF
Idaho can only be Appropriated; bonds
have been issued to finance enterprises
