BAKER BULLS COFFEE MARKET

Secretary Bakers department boasts
of having saved something more than
one million dollars by ''shrewd buying
on the army" This purchase was
made "just before the recent sharp rise
in price," Saved one million dollars for
whom? The taxpayers have to pay the
cost of running the War Department,
which has been beyond all reason under
the Baker regime. Notwithstanding the
requirments Of war. II the government
jumped into the market and bought
10, ,oO0, 600 pounds of coffee, who can estl-
mate the effect this had IN creating the
sharp rise in price3 And who have to
meet this increase in price or go without
co6eef The people, the consumers, who
are the taxpayers. An analogous sitna-
ton was brought about on our entry
into the war. when the Navy Depart.
ment hoped into the market and
bought steel to the limit, whereupon
the advance in price became tremendous.
When the government becomes q buyer
on such . colossal scale the saving to
the people is not . nesl one, because
they are obliged to meet the increased
pricss caused BY this shock to the mar
ket. a ioresighted policy would be to
buy gradually with : view to future
demands and thus obviate such market
disturbances.

PROPOSED AUTOMOBILE
LICENCE LAW.

The Nonpartisan League contemplates
an absolute revision of the motor vehicle
registration law, so that it will take it
out of the hands of the secretary of
state entirely. Under the proposed bill,
the licenses are to be issued by the
county treasurer, the highway commits
sion will buy the tags and the tax com.
mission will administer the law.
A change is contemplated IN the man.
ner of charging fees. Instead of fixing
them according to horsepower. as is now
done, they will be determined by the
value and capacity. Pleasure cars are
to be taxed according to the dealers val
ue, taxis and carrying buses are to be
taxed according to- the capacity and
trucks are to be taxed according to ton.
mage capacity.
The tax on pleasure cars the first year
is two percent of the Dealers value, and
each year thereafter it will be based on
the list price. One-third of the tax is
to remain in the county and the other
two-thirds will 60 to the highway COM
mission, az under the present law.
II this bill becomes law a person
buying Cadillac, Franklin, or Willys
knight will have to pay annually over
$40 license for his car. Two years ago
they raised the automobile license on an
average of over 800 percent. 1t takes
money to run government like Mr.,

THE LEGISLATURE.

The Nonpartisan machine is in full
control at the state capitol and peace
and harmony seems to prevail. At the
caucus held down town which was pre-
sided over by Mr.. Townley the amend
ments which were supposed to be defeat
ed at the general election were declared
carried and Governor Frazier's budget
was outlined from the caucus program.
The coming bienial budget calls for an
expenditure of close to five million
dollars, as against something over four
million dollars of two years ago. This
will necessitate an increase in the as
sessed valuation of the state Of at least
sl25, ,OOO, 900 unless another way of
raising the money can be figured out
besides taxation which is not likely.
We find the names of the following

Ia our state the :hief product is wheat.

In conversation with representa-
tive Of one Of the loading threshing
machine manufacturers the other day
the Pioness Express learned that the
prices of separstors have advanced twice
since early last fall. The reason gwen
was that material and labor have a6-
vanccd. And still, he said, he had sold
more machines for next falls delivery
up to the present time than he did in
the same period last year. "A peculiar
phase Of the whole situation is that peo.
pie are getting used to these high prices
and think little about it. You 60 into
a store and pay from 60 to rs cents for a
pound of butter and say nothing about
it. The same is true OF merchandise OF
all kinds. If the prices Of the product
Of the country is raised to a higher stan.

or things follows, we see no reason why
these standards cannot be maintained
IN the future. But il adverse legislation
which breeds unrest, is enacted by ma.
