Mr.. HOOVER seems to be slowly
but surely finding himself in the
Republican party. His suggestion
that his supporters carefully avoid
making personal attacks on other can
didates for the Republican nomination,
as such policy will only aid the com
mon enemy, implies that whoever the
Republican nominee is, Hoover will
support him. At his present rate Of
going he will soon be denouncing
the Democrats like regular Republi-
can.

CURRENT COMMENT.

A UNITED STATES senator sayi
the farmers Of this country are
getting tired of supporting the cities
which shows either that the senator
is dcmagogue or doesn't understand
the complexities Of civilization. The
farmer no more supports the man in
the city than the man in the city sup
ports the farmer. Each is essential TO
the other; each has his work to per-
form; each helps the other to enjoy
the comforts and Injuries Of life.
Neither could get along very well
without the other. 1t 1t we're not for
the farms the cities would starve, of
course. But how barren indeed would
be life upon farm il there were no
cities. There ia no conflict Of interest
between the two---and the man who
tries TO build up an artificial conflict
Is no friend Of either the farmer Of the
person who resides in city.

 Complaint was filed several weeks ago with the commission by Tempe residents who had gas installed. They complained that at times they were cut off from gas supply for an hour or more and that the service of the company would bear investigation.
 After hearing complaints the com- mission gave the South Side company 10 days in which to remedy their service. It was contended that it did nothing to improve conditions, and was cited for contempt. The defense of fered was that the company had not been given an opportunity to be heard before the order was issued. Rather than open the old case, the commission instituted new proceedings. and the hearing will be held next week.

in tho fund, caused by delinquent taxes, the warrants are to be paid out of the general fund, which fund is to be reimbursed upon the payment or the delinquent taxes
 The constitution, section 10, article XI, provides that the revenue for the maintenance of the State educational institutions shall be derived from the investment of the proceeds of the sale of the lands granted to those institu- tions, and from the rental of such lands. It further provides that in ad- dition to such income the legislature shall make such appropriations. to be met by taxation. as shall insure the proper maintenance.
 The effect of those provisions is that the funds derived from the federal grants for educational institutions would be available for the maintenance of the institutions, and would be in addition to the legislative approprla- tion of funds raised by taxation.
