Vacation Party
 On Fishing Trip

Swimming and fishing have become the main diversion for Mir. and Mrs. w. c. McMillen and Mir. and Mrs. s. Harry Robertson of Phoenix and MT. and Mrs E. l.. Duff of Miami, who are making up 8 vacation party at Lalomai lodge, Oak Creek, according to word brought to Phoenix yesterday. This announce ment carries the information that on their first effort in the gentle art of angling tie members of the party caught the limit as set by law. Now, however, MT. McMillen spends all day in hooking one and s. Harry Robertson has come to the conclusion that the fish are too clever for him and that he had better forego the sport alto gether.
 Mir. and Mrs Duff have put in their time angling for sharks. Unfortunate ly. according to the announcement, the fact that they are returning to Miami tomorrow will probably keep them from adding any piscatorial trophies to those they may have gathered else where

Hopi Snake Dance
 Ended Last Night

As the last hideously painted Indian Snake priest of a long line plunged his hands into the kisi and departed for the mesa with his writhing mass of rattlers last night thousands of tour ists who had gathered to witness the annual ceremonies of the Hopi Indians turned from the scene bred in medic val barbarism to seek again the paths of civilization.
 LID in the land of the Painted Desert and dwellings cut into cliffs the Hopi Indian has adopted and put into practice many modern ideas and methods But for ten days in each year all vestiges of civilization are lost in the spectacular ceremonies of a religion which regards the rattle snake as sacred

Although it previously asserts, IN its
defense of the operation of the 1919 tax
law. that it is 1.-THE best law that could
be devised" and it's operation is we'll
nigh perfect, the republican state com
mittee does concede that there are some
flaws in the taxation system in spite of
the enactment of this greatest achieve
ment since the Civil war. 1t says:
There has been disposition to hold
either the new tax law or the state tax
board responsible for some apparent,
and, in a few cases, actual Overassess-
ments Of property as a consequence OF
the horizontal advances ordered by the
board These figures show, so far as
farm real estate is concerned, that the
board is in no measure responsible. AS
sesSments, as a whole, are still below
actual values What is wrong is the
failure of the local taxing officials to
equalize values in the first place"
About the only bit of truth contained in
this paragraph is the statement that $50
far as farm real estate is concerned the
board is in no measure responsible"
This is admitted by every one who has
watched the operation Of the law, and 1t
might also be said that the principal
criticism that has been levied at the law
is the fact that the board, which is in
trusted with ,autOcratic power over the
assessment Of both farm real estate and
every other kind OF property lis in no
measure responsible"
The taxpayers OF Indiana have realized
that it is wholly essential to their FRO
lection that the power to assess real es-
tate and other property should be in the

hands of agents who are responsible ana
are not so remotely established that they
can not be reached by the persons TO
whom they are responsible.
Two other pertinent points in this para
graph are the admission that there Is
actual overassessment of property as
consequence Of the horizontal advances
ordered by the board" and the attempt to
declare that what Is wrong" is due to
the failure of local taxing officials to
equalize values"
The constitution of Indiana recognizes
no difference between Overassessment and
underassessment. 1t declares that taxes
should be levied equally. Therefore, when
the republican committee admits that
some property is oyerassessed and other
property is underassesSed It admits that
the mandate Of the constitution has not
been compiled with through the admins
tration of the tax law.
When the republican committee at
tempts to attribute the failure to obtain
equalization OF assessments to the thou
sands Of local tax assessing agents in the
state it accepts as fact the preposterous
premises that three men in Indianapolis,
constituting the state tax board, are bet
ter able to judge the true cash value of
property In all parts of Indiana than local
officials who view the property itself each
day.
On these premises they seek support for
their Capitalization scheme of tax assess
ment And they do not appear to under
stand that the intelligence Nof the tax
payers of Indiana is equal to the task
of understanding this fallacy

Within the ranks OF the democratic
party several men are highly available
as presidential candidates. Fortunately
the party is not torn by factions, thus
permitting a selection to be made with
out petty prejudices entering into the
decision. or the tramplng under foot
of the sound principles Of democracy.
W. G. McAdoo, former treasury head,
is presidential timber He is a man who
has demonstrated his ability to handle
big problems in a big way. Under his
capable leadership the United States
launched upon the new business of war
without in the least disturbing the eco
nomtc status of the nation. 1t was free
IN predicted that when this country re-
turned to a peace footing there would nc
financial depression. Due TO the leader
ship Of Mr.. McAdoO, peace was declared
ard the predicted depression never ar
rived Under his careful guidance as
director general of railroads the trans
portation system of the country was
made to function on a war basis, when.
under private control, 1t has failed to
meet the crisis. His wonderful puhlic
accomplishments are too we'll known to
necessltate repetition at this time.
During the months of reconstruction
the United States needs man in the
presidential chair who has the unbound
ed confidence OF labor and honest bust
ness. w. G. McAdoo has the confidence
, of labor and honest business. These
interests know he can be relied upon
/ to deal fairly and squarely with all
problems. He will never shirk response
bility. In short, Mr.. McAdoo is known
as safe man to handle large questions.
As first choice we favor William G. Nc
Adoo for president.
In announcing support of Mr.. McAdoo
for the presidency we have not searched
the records to see whether he has at all
times voted given party ticket. The
only test worthy of the name is whether
he has demonstrated ability to handle
the position; whether he bears the repu-
tation of dealing fairly and honestly be-
tween conflicting elements; whether he
stands for a constructive and progress
sive program. That is the basis upon
which we must hire 4 man to fill the

PRAISE LIKED
BY AMERICANS
War and Navy Secretaries
Write to British.

LONDON, Feb. 13.-The English Speak
ing Union has received correspondence
from the American ambassador In Lon
don, In which the American secretary of
war and Josephus Daniels, the secretary
of the navy, express their appreciation TO
the lord mayors, lord provosts and may
ors of the leading cities and towns in
the British Isles for the Illuminated ad-
dress which was presented by Lord
Reading on behalf of the English Speak
ing Union, to the American ambassador
on armistice night
The American secretary OF war in his
letter says: "Our army felt itself wei
coined into a great company, and re-
joices that the victorious conclusion Of
the struggle is a common glory to the
soldiers of the participating armies.
American soldiers temporarily resident in
England were received with warm hospi-
tally by the people of Great Britain, and
share with your exceilencies the hope
that the recollection Of these great en-
ga gements and of the Inequalities of
your people will continue to be the basis
of permanent good Will and understand
ing between the armies and the peoples
of our respective countries
The secretary of the navy, Washington,
District of Columbia, writes: Zone of
the memories which the officers and men
of the navy VIII always cherish is that
of the unbounded hospitality which was
extended to them by the people of Great
Britain and Ireland, when their duties
brought them within the confines Of the
United Kingdom during the great war
1t will always be a source of qualification
to know that the conduct of our men
was OF a nature as to inspire such feel
ings OF affection in the hearts and minds
of the people Of Great Britain and Ire
land as indicated in the communication
received from their representatives"

Held Whiskers Sacred.

II the beard has any standing in the
world today, it is undoubtedly because
OF the Jews, who held their whiskers
to be sacred, and swore by them.
Later, the Turks did the same. The
sultan's followers used to comb their
whiskers after prayers. catch the
hairs that came out, break them in
two and bury them, on the theory
that In some mysterious way the hairs
helped to make soft walking to the
