SALARIES Set BY
LAW MUST STAND
Attorney General Decides
Department Can't Give
Increases.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 10.--Respond-
ing to an inquiry from II. Z. James,
state inspector and examiner, Attor-
ney General Dawson held that the
heads of the various departments of
the state have no authority to change
salaries of assistants fixed by statute.
The question arose in constituting cer-
tain sections of the Budget Approprf-
alton Commission statute.
Attorney General Dawson held that
no department has the right to en-
ploy any help or to expend any money
other than that set forth and asked
for in the estimate submitted to The
commission. The amount requested
by each department should be CLASH
fled according to its purpose, Attorney
General Dawson said, such as salaries,
maintenance, operation, supplies, re-
pairs and permanent improvements.
If the purpose of any department is
TO use more money than was APP
propriated in the preceding year the
reason for the increased appropria-
tions should be set out in detail, he
held.
The effect of this opinion will be
that the heads of the departments
must hew strictly to the line OF
economy during this administration.

ARIZONA BIG COTTON STATE.

The year 1919 saw $4,000 acres
planted to long staple cotton in Arizo-
ma. Although one-half bale to the
acre is an estimated average, one
bale or even more is not uncommon.
1t further develops upon investi-
cation that cotton, like the mesquite
and the gila monster, is indigenous
to the state.

Monessen, Pa, Jan. l0.-A local
newspaper has received a unique re-
spouse from one of its subscribers to
whom a bill was sent recently. The

Statistics for the decade ending 1920
are not available in full, but such fig
ures as may be had indicate that the
increase in farm productivity has been
more than maintained.
For example, take Missouri's com
parative record for the five years pre-
ceding Jan. 1, 1900, and the five year,
preceding Jan. l, 1920. The latter
period shows an increase over the for.
mer of 80 per cent in the production
of oats AMI lis per cent in the produe-
ton of wheat. There is per cent
loss N corn. bnt to offset this there is
an increase of 1876 per cent in cotton.
We commented some weeks ago
when census figures showing that the
urban population of the United States
now exceeds that of the rural districts.
The serious implications Of this ten
dency to disparity between the con-
sumers Of food and the producers are
obvious. There is point beyond
which the city drift cannot go without
becoming dangerous; but the statistics
above quoted indicate clearly the op-
GRAFTON of compensatory factors.
The farmer today is working with
his head more than he ever did before,
hence his hands are more effective.
He has adopted scientific methods and
labor saving machinery. Improvement
of methods of crop rotation is result
ing in an increasing fertility of tile
soil.
The tractor is doing on the farm
what the power machine did in the
world of manufacturing industry. One
man with a tractor pillow can cover
four or five times the acreage today
that was possible to the man with a
hand plow and team twenty-five
years ago.
And so, in spite of the decreasing
population of the rural districts, we
are being fed, and we are producing a
surplus which helps to feed the world.
The farmer is on the job. He is keep.
ing step with progress. If he organ
ICES now to protect his interests, he
may argue that at least he has not
neglected ours. We would remind him
only as We remind ourselves, that the
obligation is mutual While we have
subsisted because of his toll and en-
terprise, he has been able to compass
his task more easily and efficiently
because of the inventive skill of the
industrial world. We must recognize
our independence.-Rocky Mountain

THE ISSUE WAS PLAIN

While the people have grown tired
OF Mr.. Wilson and the general weak
ness through which he has admins
cred the affairs of government, this
feeling of dissatisfaction being largely
responsible for the overwhelming de-
feat of Governor Cox and the Demo-
cratic party, We think there is no
question but that the allegiance with
which the party chung to the League
OF Nations program, and especially to
Article 10, was the chief reason for the
overwhelming defeat of this old party
of blunders. While Mr.. Cox spared
as long as he dared, in the hope that
he might find an issue other than this.
he was finally forced to fall back on
the league issue as the only one big
enough to consider in presidential
campaign, and this decision the Re.
publicans welcomed, and it proved the
undoing of Mr.. Cox and the Demo-
cratic party.
But this was not the only danger
which confronted the party of blund-
ers and negation, although perhaps the
chief danger. When the world needed

country willingly gave their boys to
