nc report compares IllS WlIn IllS expenses for the same institutions for one year under the former democratic administration, that of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1919. During this period there was spent on the insti- tutions enumerated above a total of I$529, ,59O76, thus revealing a saving to the taxpayers of $118,115.64 by the present Republican administration.
 Ii this same ratio or saving can be effected for another two years it will mean an aggregate saving to the state of nearly half a million dollars for the four-year period ending June 30, 1923, and this constitutes one of the most powerful arguments for continuing in office the man responsible for this economy, Tom Campbell-the gover- nor who has given Arizona business administration.
 When the Campbell administration took office Jan. 6, 1919, it was to find almost every institutional fund of the state depleted and with large deficits.
 Under the law, appropriations are made by the legislature to carry the institutions along for six months after the new administration comes in to the close of the fiscal year. But un- der the system of wasteful eXtrava- gance practised by the democrats 1t was found that not only was there no money left for meeting the expenses Of this six months period, but that m many instances huge deficits had to be met immediately. In other words, the condition of the funds showed that the democratic administration not only had borrowed on the future but had gnawed into the allotment of funds to carry them even to the first of the year.
 This almost unbelievable condition of affairs was early discovered by Governor Campbell. Immediately he ordered an investigation and report from Andrew Baumert, Jr, secretary, of the commission of state institu- lions, now succeeded by the board of directors.
 On Jan. 30, just 21 days after Camp bell took office, Baumert filed his re- port showing the condition of all funds and the emergency appropria- ions which would be required to car " the institutions to June 30, 1919. i The various deficits and requirements 1 were set forth as follows:

 home - 5.76772 19,467.72 Prison, balance 9,76927 66,25O73
 Attention is called to the fact that the prison had an actual cash bal ance of $Q769.27, but this amount was wcefully inadequate to meet the run ming expenses of the cnstitution for the six months period. As matter of fact the figures of estimated detl- cits as of Dec. 1, 1918, proved to be greatly under the actual deficits which showed up when all the claims came in. For instance. the industrial school was figured to be in the red a little oyer $l9.O00, whereas as matter ot fact it developed that the deficit was nearer S35.OO0 at the time. This dis crepancy was due to the general con fusion and lack of system which fca- turcd the states manner of doing ] business under the old regime.
 Baumert's report to the governor i showed the educational institutions to te nearly as bad off financially as the others.
 The Northern Arizona Normal School had cash balance of SS,675.o9 in its maintenance fund, but needed S4S.OOO to carry it through to the close of the school year. In the building fund of the same institution there was 1 a deficit of $6,21672 and an emergency appropriation of $24716.72 was asked !

most gratifying response has been
made to the appeal for funds for the
widow of Detective Armstrong, who
was recently slain in discharge of
his duty in this city. The fund, that
at the close of yesterdays reckoning
was $3,40969, it is hoped to bring
to at least $1,000. That it will reach
that point seems now certain The
60 cents included in the total should
be carefully noted. The pennies that
have gone into this fund are eloquent
of public interest and concern. They
are also indictments against the neg
lect through law to provide adequate

measures for funding, and the short

efficient aid in turning over the ac-

1920 issue of "baby bonds" will have
a slight advantage over the others in
that they will be redeemable at the
Treasury without notice, although the
ten day notice requirement will con-
tinue as to post Office redemptions.
1t is hard to see why this distinction
is made. Redemptions are not like

game.

an active part in the campaign. 1t
should look out for its own interests.
The general public likewise should
bestir itself in campaign matters this
year No campaign in many years
has signited so much to the public.
This is but to say that all classes
and conditions of citizens should APP
pear in great numbers at the polls
next November and exercise their
right of suffrage. The country will
benefit by full expression, and on
all the issues presented.
Many more than one issue will be
presented. There will be the tariff
issue, with its appeal to all interests.
Capital wants a continuation of such
protection as may be necessary to the
earning of dividends. Labor wants
such an arrangement of schedules and
rates as will insure good wages and
the maintenance of the American
standards of living. And the general
public will want to see that prosperity
which has long been promoted by a
protective tariff.
There will be the railroad issue,
likely to take the form of govern
ment ownership and operation. Should
the government enter upon that pol
icy, Those who object assert that
the step if taken will lead in the di-
rection of state socialism, and that
state socialism will spell a radical
change in American institutions. Does
capital, does labor, does the general
public consider that our institutions
have failed, or are outworns
And the merchant marine issue is
of interest to all. Increased foreign
trade will mean increased domestic
produetion-more work for both capi-
tai and labor, and more satisfaction
for the public. The national pride
will be heightened by the appear
anee of American merchant fleets on
the seas.
These and other issues will be pass
ed upon by the two leading parties
in their platforms this year; and can
didates for the presidency and for
Congress will accordingly be pledged.
No voter need be in doubt about his
ballot. He will know from his con-
vietions in which box it belongs, and
SO can properly deposit it. And the
new Congress when it meets-very
likely in special session soon after
March of next year-will address
itself to the redemption of the prom
ises upon which it has obtained
power.
All dividend earners, all wage earn
ers, and everybody else should be very
active in politics this year.
