THE QUICK AND DEAD

So many gents are in their graves, because of
reckless driving we should suppress the speed
ing knaves. to save the gents surviving. The
reckless driver gees to court, and small remorse
is hisn, when he is punished for his sport by
drawing fine or prison. Ten days in hock,' the
jurst cres, may cure you OF your hurry; and
VIXEN released, if you are wise, you'll cause nc
further worry You have endangered many lives
the speed cops nerves you've tangled and moral
voters and their wives are tired of being man
glyd." And when the speeders paid the kale he's
fined for his offending. or when his little term in
Jail comes to a happy ending, he is at liberty to
20, with calloused grns and titters and slam
his tunlbril to and fro, and MAIN more human
cri,ters. Ii is known to be a nut reck-
less speeding tourist the door of mercy should be
shut when he's before the jurist That able
magistrate should say You'd heed not fines or
falling, such easy methods do not pay, they're
punk and unavailing Your car will now be
placed in hook and while for months its cooling
you are condemned, young man, to walk, until
another ruling. Go, walk the pavement, toe and
heel and join the footsore sweaters, and if you
touch steering wheel we'll load you down with
letters Condemned to walk the reckless boys

up doleful noise to show their hearts were

BENNY CORD0VA
Benny and Jim Flynn Have
Established Training
Quarters at Moose Hall;
Public Invited.

Since his last fight here, Benny
Cordova has picked up more speed
than he had ever shown in Albu-
querque. This was the opinion of
the crowd of fans who watched
him work out at the Moose hall
last night. Benny Is still carrying
q bit overweight. but is confident
that he will be down to his usual
boxing weight when he enters the
ring at the Crystal theater on the
evening OF December ] G for hhs IS
round go with Mike Baca Of Santa
Fe.
This Is the third time the two
boys have been matched but they
have never faced each other in the
ring. Albuquerque fans, after
watching Benny in training for the
past three weeks. believe that he Is
clear out of Baca's class. The Santa
Fe fans have taken just the oppo-
site view of the match. Baca has
been in training during the past
two weeks and is said to look
mighty good. He will practically
complete his training in Santa Fe
and will come down to Albuquer-
que about two days before the bout
to get used to the drop in altitude.
Benny has established himself at
Moose hall and will train in public
every evening starting at 7 o'clock.
With him is Young Jim Flynn, who
will meet the best man Dan Pa
dilla can find for him on the six
teenth in a ten-round bout.
Jim showed up well with his
sparring partners last night and is
training with Benny, Eddy Lewis,
Benny Chavez and several other of
the boys at Moose hall. The fans
are invited to drop in and look the
boys over each evening.

PLENTY OF MONEY BUT
CAN'T PAY $500 BILL
FOR JURORS MEALS
tps Tho Associated Press. J

Phoenix, Ariz, Dec. S.-Al'
though Cochise has more than a
million dollars in its treasury. it
cannot pay a bill for $500 for
meals furnished to Jurors, accord
ing to word received by the state
tax commission today. The report
to the commission said the coun-
tvs difficulties were due to the
new budget law which provides
that no bills can be paid out Of a
fund which has been depleted ever
though there is money in the coun-
ty treasury.
Members of the board of super
visors of Cochise county, Superior
Judge A. C. Lockwood and County
Attorney John f. Ross of Tomb
stone, will appear before the state
tax commission tomorrow to ask
that body to declare an emergency
and thus permit Cochise county to
pay bills owing from funds which
have been depleted.

ultimate destination
Mr.. Pratt was introduced by
Walter M, Connell, chairman of the
city commission. Mr.. Pratt's talk
analysed the tax question from
every standpoint, and his concep-
ton of the needs of the country set
forth clearly the deplorable condi-
tons extant in tho executive and
Legislative departments of the gov
eminent.
"The estimates Of the executive
heads of departments are padded
to the extent of millions of dollars"
he said, illustrating his point by re-
lating how a certain war depart
ment officials estimate had been
cut down S20,000.000. On hearing
of the cut. that official remarked
that inasmuch as his estimate was
$40, 000,0 900 beyond the actual need,
he was 100000 to the good.
The main point Of Mr.. Pratt's
address conferred around the neces-
sity of convincing the government
of the advisability of adopting the
budget system, and refusing to con-
slider any money appropriation bills
until some definite action on the
system had been made. Under the
budget plan. the finances and esti-
mates Of all executive and legisla-
tive departments would be handled
by one committee In each house of
congress, instead of fifteen commit
tees, thus simplifying and co-ordi-
mating the many branches Of the

lowing from speech made by Ed

Taxes upon every article which

back, or is placed under the foot;
taxes upon everything which is
pleasant to see. hear. feel, smell

from abroad or is grown at home;
taxes on the raw material; taxes on
every value that is added to it by
the industry of man; taxes on the
sauce which pampers mans appe-
tite, and the drug that restores him
to health; on the ermine which
decorates the Judge, and the rope
which hangs the criminal, on the
brass nails of the coffin. and the
ribbands of the bride. At bed, or
