WHY NOT GIVE THEIR NAMES?

The name of ex-Governor G. w. P. Hunt was mentioned by witness for the defense in the trial of the deportation cases in Tombstone last week. Mrs. Bently was on the stand and testified that Governor Hunt was looked upon as pretty good Wobbley" by Bisbee members of the I. w. w. and recited statement made to her by her husband that Gov. Hunt had sent his personal check for $500 to the Clifton strikers at the time of the Clifton-Morenci strike. If that is the basis for branding the ex-governor as a pretty good wobbley' why confne the testimony to the ex-governor? It is fact that several other state officials followed the governor in making contributions to the strike fund in this district For reason, it should be borne in mind that the Clifton-Morenci strike was called in campaign year.-Clifton Era.
 Now would be good time to publish the names of the other state officials who gave funds to the Wobblies. There are only two sides of the street nowadays and the people are entitled to know which side the street our state officials or candidates are lined up on. It is not so much a question of politics as it is question of being for or against the government.

THE POLITICAL NEWSPAPER

Anent the proposed new democratic paper to be established in Phoenix, the Phoenix Messen- ger very sagely says: "A fool and his money is soon parted" There is rather strange mind- led element in the democratic party that believe la "good democratic paper" is one that is per-
 sonal organ for their special use at all times and without cost. There have been so many "bril- liant" examples of newspapers established for
 political purposes only' that it is getting diff ficult to finance one nowadays. There are too
 many days in the year when people are think ing of something else besides the political for tunes of the few.
 Three months of red hot politics every two
 years does not leave much pie betwen times. The lean twenty-one months between elections is the
 time that furnishes much food for thought to the financial packers of the political newspaper A consistent democratic paper like the Messenger has always been, does not suit the loud-mouthed element who talk in millions and usually pay put real money on February 31st

WHY TAXES ARE STILL HIGH

'Tons of nails hauled to dumps" "Teams kept on payroll but hidden away in gravel pits to make it appear they were being used." Gangs of workmeh almost constantly gambling, shoot ing craps, idling their time away" More than 12,500,000 feet of finished lumber and united flooring burned and wasted" Total cost ST. 200, 1000, ,000; lost through waste and extrava- gance, $600,O00,00O." No, these are not extracts from those recent reports about useless nitrate plants built by the war department nor yet con- corning the findings about trucks, leather goods, shoes, etc., etc. They come from fresh chapter of the. same war department series-a report just made on the expenditures for army camp and cantonment construction. Specific charges of fraud and criminal waste are made by the Nc Culloch committee in this matter which demand that the attorney general bring suit to collect millions of dollars on the evidence furnished
The Coconino sun., 1920-04-30
SOME REASONS FOR HIGH WAR TAX

The war department expended approximate ly $16O,000,000 on the construction of powder plants and not pound of powder manufactured by the government at these plants was used in the war. Over $70,0O0,000 was expended on the powder plant at Nitro, w. Va, and recently the entire plant was sold for something over $8,OOO- 900, and the probability is that the government never got very much of the $8,000,000.
 We expended approximately $1,000, 900, ,000 on shells, and yet only 17,000 American shells were fired by the American forces during the war. The insignificance of 17,000 shells is real ized when we are infomed that frequently the American forces fired half million shells on a single morning barrage.
 We expended approximately $1,051, 100000 in preparation for the manufacture of aero planes, and yet we did not produce single fight ing plane. We did not produce purely bombing plane. We only produced and sent to the front in France 213 observation planes, which might be used for light day bombing.
 We spent approximately $100,000,000 in the manufacture of American tanks, and yet the first American tank did not reach France until the goth of November, after the armistice was sign led.
 We spent approximately $117 7,0O0,0 ,0000 in the manufacture of gas, and there was never pound shells.
 We expended approximately SAYS, 900 in the manufacture of guns, and we only succeeded in getting forty-eight >4-7-inch guns and twenty four 8-inch howitzers, or total of 72 American guns, to the battle front.
 Similar illustrations of waste and ineffective expenditures could be recited ad nauseam if one but had the time.
 When these investigations have been com pleted, when the light of truth has been turned on them it will be found that at least half of the SIS, ,0OO, ,O00, ,000 expended by the war depart ment has been either wasted or unwisey and in- effectively expended
 And the same is true at least to some extent in the navy department. am informed that the war and navy departments have expended nearly S250, 100000 within radius of 25 miles of Nor folk, Va, in the construction of cantonments, and training stations; and it is now ascertained that it is impossible to get sufficient water there to supply the necessities of those plants. The navy department expended $7,0OO,- 900 on naval training camp in a swamp near Norfolk after the armistice was signed and the war was over; and every dollar of it will be lost

WAR DEPARTMENT PLAYS FAvORITES

Representative Martin B. Madden, of Illinois charged in the house recently that war depart ment officials are playing favorites in connec- tion with the sale of army surplus supplies. 'The result is that men on the outside engaged in sell ing these supplies on the market are making millions of dollars" Representative Madden de- clared. "A number of men in the war depart ment, in charge of the sale of surplus supplies of all kinds, are in collision with number of men on the outside to whom they are selling these supplies when they are declared to be sur plus It is said that they never make declara- tion of surplus on certain supplies until they find that the men to whom they sell have found a market for them. want to be distinctly under stood" continued Representative Madden "as saying that the men in charge of the sale of war surplus supplies are playing favorites with men on the outside to whom advantage is given and that in no case, except such as have mentioned, is anybody advised that war supplies are de- clared surplus"
