From the Des MONIES Register and Leader.
From the report of the finance commit
tee of the United States Senate. it is dis
closed that the estimated expenditures for
the fiscal year ending next June are 81
partment, which will raise the total to
about 81 ,5D, oO0.otA. As postal expenses are
not paid for through taxation, they may
be dismissed from consideration.
OF this gigantic total. more than $G:yG.-
100000 goes to national defense.
1t is worth while for the people Of
Iowa to look upon this matter from the
standpoint of their own participation in
it. lowe mas IA per cent Of the oo lp"m
ton of the United States. Its share of
the total cost or government, exclusive of
the postoftice department. on the basis Of
population, is $27, G5o.0G0 for the year.
Iowa's share of the $3.50, 10000 spent.on
the army, navy and Notifications is $15,-

is Approximately $1,000. coo. So We are
called upon to pay three times as much
for the army and navy rs for all the
expenses Of state government,
Inc Increase in army and navy fortif-
cations for 1917 over 1916 is 500, 600, 0o3.
Iowa's share OF this increase is 50. 800, 0S.
The bin which Iowa is called upon to pay,
for the increase alone. is equivalent to
multiplying state taxation by two.
If it We're proposed to raise the state
taxes OF Iowa by SlO,0N0 600 u year, there
would be some discussion of what the
state was going to get in return. AT least
one Is entitled to believe such would be
the case, judging from the interest
aroused In the returns from S2Eo,GAA a year
invested in the Improvement of the state
capitol grounds.
But There seems to be an impression
that $d9o''Ho'S" a year spent on the army

known as the federal treasury, with which
the people OF states and cities and town

"PoIsoNED MY DOG"

BY Roy A. Moulton, Atlantic. Ia.

- = " :. ! AM -
In the wee small hours Of morning I
heard a pitiful whine on my front porch.
/ went down to investigate. l found lying
there a few feet from the door my little
innocent pup.
His eyes were already CLASSY and he
was crying like a baby. He could barely
raise his head, his agony was beyond de-
scrlDtion. He seemed to know his time
had come, for he looked up into my eyes
as though he wanted to tell me some
thing before he passed away. Finally he
made me understand. He said to me:
This is a strange world, after all. I've
tried my best. | have not Intentionally
harmed a sou l nave been jolly and
helped amuse the children by romping
with them and we were such good pals.
and | most regret hat their little hearts
will break when they awake in the
morning and find me gone.
But my life has not been lived in vain,
that there lives in this neighborhood d
that he would poison a dog.
He called me to him. I thought he
| was my friend: then fed me poison.
Tell my little pals | mated to leave
before the morning. | would have liked
50 much to have had one more good
romp
Tell them for me to beware of this
man. for anyone 50 degenerate that he
would poison a dog would not hesitate
to take the life of a child"
Then he breathcd his last-a martyr
revealing once more the dcpravIty of
some human beings.
