OF VALUE TO NEWSPAPERS

The newspaper man is blamed for a whole lot of things he can't help. such as using partiality in mentioning visitors, giving news about some folks and leaving others out, etc. He simply prints all the news he can find. Some people inform him about such things and others do not. It's news that makes the newspaper. and every man. woman and child can be associated editor if they only will.

 Whatever burden or injustice there is upon any individual tax payer is not due to governmental extr avagance or tax lodging by the big corporations, but is owing to the fact that out a population of about 400,00 people there are 375, 900 who never pay a cent direct taxes at all not even their six bits, and slide through life enjoying all the benefits that a we'll ordered government gives them, including schools roads, protection of person and property etc. And many would deem it an outrage to be asked to contri- bute thei1 per capita share to- ward maintaining such govern ment.

The Delaware Indians made salt from brine springs in New York state and sold it to settlers as early as 1870, making probsb y the first commercial production of salt in the country. The man. ufacture of salt by white people in the United States was begun near Syracuse, New York, about 1788. Salt is the most commonly used mineral in the world, and no useful mineral except coal, per haps, occurs in greater abundance or is more widely distributed in the United States.

Arizona is to spend more than million dcllars on her school system this year. exclusive of the state university, according to the appropriations made by the last legislature and the levies asked yesterday by the state school board
 The state board of equalization will he asked, as the result of the meeting yesterday, to make a levy of $70,000 for use under the law of 1913; $100.000 for the payment of 75% of salaries of teachers of vocational subjects in high schools $50, 900 for the maintenance and supplies in the schools at present giving vocational training and those that are expected to put in these courses this fall.

Arizona and New Mexico
 Taxes Contrasted
By Paul A. F. Walter

ment just published at Phoenix that the state budget for Arizona for the coming year will be S6, 000- 900 of which S5, 293 900 must be raised by direct taxation is of much interest, for New Mexico's S state budget for the coming year is only S2. 2.212, 834 42 and for the 192O-1921 fiscal year only$1, 948, : 701.75. This is the more remark able because at the last census, New Mexico had 50 per cent more population. In area, too. Arizo- na is smaller.
 The per capita cost per year to carry on the Arizona government is fully $25, while in New Mexi- co it is less than $500 per capita or less than one-fourth.
 The tax payer, therefore, who groans about the extravaganza of the government in New Mexico and the heavy contributions he must make to maintain the state government, should be advised to move into Arizona where one doesn't get any more in the way of state government for $25 than he would in New Mexico for $500.
 The economical methods of New Mexico state government are the more apparent when one examines and analyses the ex- penditures for the coming year. Of the $2,212.834.24 only one tenth goes for salaries and ex- penses of the executive and legis- lative offices including the district judges, district attorneys, main tenance of the capitol and execu- tive buildings. state library, supreme court, etc.
 For the protection of person and property $141,67 is to be expended and that includes such activities as the extermination of predatory animals; mounted police. insurance, mining, corpor- .ation, bank departments, etc.
 It is for education that the largest fraction is expended and every one wants good schools as a matter of course. For that object more than one-fourth ot the entire budget has been sci aside, while for good roads an other fourth is appropriated, SC that more than one-haIf of the road expenditures go for good schools and good roads. Another fourth goes for the maintenance of hospitals, orphans homes, charitable and penal institutions, an expense which no civilized commonwealth escapes.
 For the interest on the bonded debt SPA, 700 is set aside, so that for the actual cost of state govern ment, protection of person and property, conservation and de veloDment of natural resources. health and sanitation only one fifth of a million dollars a year or about SIPS per capita, is ex. pended.
 But let the tax payer who groans about this $1.2 per capita per year expenditure for state government remember that one half of this is paid by railroad ano mining companies, by such 'malefactors" of great wealth as the Phelps-Dodge company, the A. T. & s. F., and the Chino Copper company, who contribu- tions annually to state, county, municipal, school and district government now total millions of dollars The wordv orator.

could pick up quickly.
The American train. however. pro
ceeded evenly, swiftly, calmly toward
the motionless train at the station.
The French were in a tumult.
When the American train was
within a short distance of the French
train the airbrakes were applied and
the former was stopped precisely
where it would have been finally un-
der the regular French railroading
procedure.
Then the drama-loving French
gave that train an ovation. They
applauded and cried Bravo" Just
as if they were at the opera.
That incident and others like it
have removed from the European
railroading mind the bad impress
sion created by the hastily construct
ed railroad equipment in Egypt.
Indeed, during the war America
gave to Europe most convincing
demonstration Of the value of Amer
lean equipment.
The railroads of the countries
which have taken an active part in
the war have suffered great depre-
citation in equipment and rolling
stock. Parts of them have been de-
stroyed.
The railroads Of the neutrals have
been allowed to deteriorate, because
the neutrals were unable to obtain
materials, cars and locomotives. Sc
market is waiting in the neutra'
countries.
American rails, too, should be il

1t is not unlikely that a number Of
new railrods will be built. Owing t.
the great loss and curtailment OF
capital abroad, it is quite probabl,
that American capital will be usec
in the building of these new lines
This makes it certain that more thar
the usual attention will be directed
to America as the manufacturing
source for rolling stock, equipment
and materials.

w ar Costs Pile
Up Lons; After
Fighting Stops

a MERICA issues her fifth ap-
~ peal for fighting dollars at
time when the diplomatists of
the world seem ready to write their
signatures on the parchment of
peace. The plain citizens who CON
stituted so large a proportion of
the 100000 subscribers to the
last loan have right to know
precisely why the Treasury seeks
war loan more than five months
after hostilities on the field of bat
tie have ceased
If the gods who regulate the des-
tiny of mankind could have touched
an electric button on November
II, and instantly reconstructed the
world, perhaps a Victory Liberty
Loan of $4,000, 100000 would have
been unnecessary. Under such
divine conditions the last gun OF
the war would have been fired and
presto EVERY soldier and every
auxiliary would have been back
working smoothly at his pre-war
job. There would have been no
post-armistice war cost.
But in the real world in which
human beings live decentralization is
costly. And occupying enemy coun-
try is also expensive. Technically,
the war will not come to an end
until the treaty of peace is for
mally proclaimed. Economically, it
will last until the last civilian fighter
is discharged.
Moreover, debts from the pre-
armistice period still hang over.
When the issue of the great CON
f1ict remained to be decided, the
government could scarcely wait for
direct popular authorization for
each expenditure. The response Of
Americas millions in the first four
Liberty Loans implied that the PEG
pie Of the United States were ready
to pour forth gold without limit
Now the people are called upon
10 lend funds to take care of eN-
lpendltureA that the government

financing WAS done by the banks,
