THE CAUSE OF HIGH TAXES.

One of the reasons taxes are high in

cent of the land in the county is ON the tax
rolls, That is condition that should be
brought to an end
The - per cent that has to find the
means of building roads across SO additional
units of these sage brush mountains and
valleys is given bigger load than any SIM
liar division in the state. Hancy is the
next county in portion and has 81 per cent
of It's area mtaXcd.
This condition will continue if the re-
cent petition of the shecpmcn to congress
prevails and the $40 acre homestead law is
Of course, there are arguments
both for and against the enlarged home
stead act, but certainly there is no argument
to be advanced supporting tho position that

which carry the burden for the other 9S per

THE NYssA COUNCILS QUESTIONS

In communication to the Argus las'
week the Nyssa Council of Defense, after {
rather complete discussion of the internal
offense which Germany made against the
United States concludes by setting forth
number of hypothetical questions relative to
the matter of patriotism.
For the purpose of the argument, and
leaving out entirely the question of whether
anv one i'm Nvssa is guilty of violating any
of the conditions which the Council sets
forth, the Argus agrees with the Council.
The communication and other such
articles are timely in that they remind
Americans of what transpired few months
ago when Bernstorff and his Hun assistants
were planning the undoing of our govern
ment.
IL is a mighty good thing to mark well
the citizens who upheld the damnable action
of the baby murderers in the sinking of the
Lusitania. Such a man or men are not fit
for citizenship in any civilized country.
They are part and parcel of the savages and
should be under the rule of the atrocious
Hun today. That is where they belong. 1T
is to be regretted il the Nyssa citizens con
corning whose patriotism the Council
doubts are guilty.
In discussing the communication. which
had been presented to it and refused publ
cation, the Gate City Journal of Nyssa qucs-
tions the motives of the authors. and de-
clares that it is an attempt to hit someone in
the back. OF course, that may be true. for
iG Nyssa they have mysterious and wonder
ful ways of doing things, but the language
OF the communication was so general that he /
would have to be guilty, indeed, who would
admit that any Of the charges rcfcrcd 10
him. The Argus has no desire to "butt in
to amy of NysSa's family fights. but believes
that communications from the Council of
Defense ON the question of patriotism are
subject matter for publication As matter
oi Tact, the Argus agrees, too, with the Jour
nal that 10 particuarizc the individuals and
"hold them to public scoln" is the best
means of fighting Scditon. \

A COMPARISON.

Ontario did not stand still last year. Ii
made some real progress. But did it make
all the progress for which il was capable and
which with its geographical and strategic
location, together with its natural resources
Il was entitled; rs compared with its neigh
borSl
That is the best means of Judging the
matter In Paycttc they added fruit driver
and saved thousands of dollars to the ranch
ers of that section; in Nampa they added
milk condenser; Caldwell acquired new
seed firm, with warehouses and equipment
Tor serving Il wide territory. These were all
substantial additions which accomplish two
objects; make II market for the produce of
the country roundabout the cities i'm ques-
ton and by giving employment to imhabi-
tants, help provide that desirable adjunct
to every community, Il payroll. No such in
stltution has come To Ontario.
Now there must he reason for this
condition. just what it is. is the subject of
many interesting conversations among peo-
pie. But conversations do not solve munich
pal problems. They merely "Open the ball"
and prepare the way for action when. the
proper interest has been aroused
The men who have property here and
who will benefit by the introduction of mSti~
tutions which will create payrolls and fur
msh markets, are the men who should study
these problems and since they are men. too.
who have the capital necessary, they can
solve the problems; if they want to do SO.

There will no doubt be some opposition
to thc candidacy of Robert n. Stanfield tol
the United States Senate ON the ground that
he is big sheepman as if that fact were
something to view with alarm. Ii Mr. Stan
field reached his position in the industry
thru unjust methods, by oppressive tactics,
bv trickerv or dishonesty the case would be
different: but none of these accusations
have ever been made against him.
As a matter of common knowledge 1T Is
not many years ago that Mr.. Stanfield was
far from the position he now holds IN the
game. and those who are familiar with the
fluctuations of the sheep and wool market
realize that were he continue in the game an
even shorter time might be required to dis
solve his winnings.
Mr.. Stanficld may not be the choice of
every man in this section but opposition to
his candidacy should be based on some
ground other than the fact that he is big
,heepman I" The fact that he has made a.
success of so prccarious business is due
to attributes that will make him al
representative in the Senate.
certainly thru his operations he has become
familiar with the problems of the stockmen
II this section, and since he is the owner of
number of irrigated farms, some of which
IRE under government and others under pri-
ratcly controlled irrigation plants, he knows
.hc problems of the farmer too. If success

considered Bob Stmficld should qualify as
