was as rotten" In Salt Lake and
Utah as In other places, and yet he
played the game to do what good he
could for his community, for even
the silent partner in any work, by his
sterling character and courageous
stand for the right, can do great
service for his city and state without
ever running for office.
Mr.. Mccormick was q member of
the city council of Salt Lake in 1888
and for some time afterwards, and
was one of the men of vision who
saw a great commercial metropolis
at Salt Lake and built accordingly.
In 1889 he paid an unheard-of price,
$85, for part Of the site OF his
present banking business, and people
were astounded at man putting SO
much money into town lot. For
twenty years he was a member Of the
board of regents for the agricultural
college Of his state, and he labored to
giev. the young people the kind Of
education that would raise the
standard of farming and farm life
above what It was back in Ontario,
Canada, where he was reared.
Utah owes much to w. s. Nc
Cornick, but he was a leader whom
people could never repay, because
he thought faster and advanced
ahead of them and had all the sat
isfaction of acquiring, and holding
whatever was Of use to him, and this
In turn made him better able to do
more for them and all.

losing A BIG
MAN

The west has lost big man in the
death of w. S. Mccormick Of Salt
Lake City. short time ago he had
a. his age, eighty-four, it was too
great shock from Which to recover.
A few things stand out in Mr.. Nc
Cornick's life that are worthy of re-
Election. He had meager education,
SO far as schools go, and he lived and
worked on a farm until he was of
age. His parents were poor and his
life was rather hard and full Of self
denial.
When he was Of age he had the
courage to take long journey. to
California, to try his fortunes where
rich mines were playing out and
great promise. He engaged in the
saw mill business before it became
notoriously improbable, and wrung
a fortune from it and from mining
investments in Nevada. When only
thirty-six years old he went to Salt
Lake City, in 1873, and established a
bank, another courageous venture
for man of meager education. He
continued to study mines and mining
and continued to invest in mines that
he thought were good, and they
yielded him fortunes. He invested
his fortunes carefully in enterprises
that promised to yield returns to
him and to develop business that
would be good for, his state, and in
both he was successful. He built up
the greatest bank between the Mis-
souri, river and the Pacific coast,
took an active part in public affairs
and led very useful career and
many useful business ventures down
to the year of his death. i
When he went on the operating
table he was ahead of the game-he
had gotten more out Of life than
most men put into it, and he had put
more in than he took out He had
filled q large measure for others to
enjoy and his service and counsel in |
public affairs had been unselfish and
Of a high order. He was not too
good to engage in politics. Politics

In much larger savings. We are
being told every day by American
leaders and fnanciers, by European
statesmen and International bankers,
that Europe is looking to America
for leadership: that we can be q
dominant influence in world affairs
and policies II we will; that the other
powers, in return for our help In
their present dilemma, are prepared
to join us, as the richest and in some
ways the most powerful nation in
the world, in any constructive world
program that we may formulate. II
that Is true, why do we not use our
influence to bring about peace and
so to curtail the military expendi-
lures that are running the world?
We can do more for Europe, more
for ourselves, more to rehabilitate
the world morally and financially by
initiating peace program than in
any other way. Either we have none
Of the influence, the standing, the
power with which we are credited,
or we are deliberately squandering
billions and betraying humanity in
not taking the initiative in an effort
to minimize the possibility Of war.
Since the beginning of the world
war Legislators in almost every
branch Of government have been run

cept the small change-more than 80
per cent Of It, to be exact--is going

future wars. Farm taxes, city taxes,

with half the world bankrupt and the
other half skimpiug and economizing
to make ends meet.
Taxation was once fighting mat
ter in America; there Is even more
reason for fighting today. The tax
gatherer must be debated, kindly II
possible, with an ak If necessary; for
no question is more intimately bound
up with the liberty Of a people than
taxation. High taxes mean loose
methods and extrayagant manage
ment, incompetent planning and
wasteful execution. The penalty for
this sort Of thing in private business
is swift bankruptcy; In the pubic
business of a rich country like
America, slow bankruptcy.
Last November the nation voted
overwhelmingly for a new ideal on
the promise of revised taxes and q
business administration with lowered
expenditures. But having growled
fiercely at the party In power ana
having inflicted q deep and q painful
bite on the tenderest or officeholdtng
part Of his person, the Watchdog re-
tired to his kennel for another long
political nap.
Now a new congress is at the door
and the Watchdog should be on the
Job. It looks like a friendly con-
gress, 1t starts like q well-intentioned
congress, but let's sniff around and
get better acquainted. There is q
strong sentiment and many able men
in this congress who are for the
things that the people wants cienti-
&c taxation and blamed sight less
Of it,, careful spending and blamed
sight less Of that.
With the watchdog at their heels
to back them up these men will be
in an overwhelming majority.

GooDING IN THE
SENATE

Frank R. Gooding has made his
maiden speech in the United States
senate, and it was devoted to the
subject of protection for the Ameri-
can farmer and stockman. It was
good speech, couched in good
language and presented with dignity
and was not too long. He was at
tackled by couple of southern sena-
tors, but he gave them the informa-
ton they wanted or made good re-
joinders to their thrusts, and went
on undisturbed.
Some of the notable statements
he made were that the southern
states are now seeking protection
from importations as do the northern
states as shown by the organization
of the southern tariff association and
it's work. Wool importations into
the United States increased from
two hundred million pounds in 1912
to seven hundred million in 1920.
1t is estimated that there are one
hundred MILLION pounds of wool on
the way from South America now
Sheep are fed in Australia for Z cents
a head per year and cattle for $3.50.
In Argentine they feed sheep the
year around for 20 cents head and
cattle for $2.50. The Australian
can ship his wool to Portland or
Seattle by water and then ship to
Boston by rail for $1.65 hundred
pounds while the rate from Idaho
points to Boston over the same roads,
shorter haul, is from 1925 to
$3.46. The freight rate from. Argen-
tine to Boston, by water, Is from
80 cents to $1.40. Africa is getting
into the sheep business on large
scale and flockmasters pay their
labor from $1.75 to IS month,
while Argentine pays its labor only
SIS to $40 a month.
Senator Gooding's speech was di-
rected in behalf of American agra
culture, but we have quoted chiefly
from the parts relating to livestock.
In view of the situation described
by Mr.. Gooding, it seems quite futile
for Americans to try to compete with
the world in raising wool without
protective tariff, and possibly so even
with tariff. With hundred mil
lion pounds of wool being imported
every fifty days, it seems foolish for
people to be acting on the suggestion
put forth by our fellow townswoman,
Mrs. Dubois, that everybody buy a
pound of wool to relieve the market.

The Tax Forum
Everybody's Comments

D. H. Biethan ,one Of the mer-
chants of Blackfoot, has felt much
concern over the tax question and
difficulty of paying of imitation OBJ
legations In hard times with debated
earnings and profits. Mr.. Biethan
calls attention to the following
article published in The Saturday
Evening Post of May 81. which we
reprint here. 1t bears the heading
Debating the Taxes" and reads as
follows:
Debating the Taxgatherer
Sugar, steel, wheat, commodities
Of all sorts, are coming down. Every
thing Is debated except taxes. Every
body is economizing except the tax
gatherer. There has been much con-
versati0n about governmental econ
omy, but as yet there is little fire.
Heretofore all the talk has been
simply a smoke screen behind which
the political transport has held on
her old course, zigzagging from time
to time to avoid bill that would
put dent in her barnacled hull.
The present congress was elected,
among other reasons, to revise our
revenue laws and to cut down the
expenses of government. It has been
called in special session for that,
among other purposes. During the
year preceding this special session
there was much talk of changing the
method Of raising taxes, but very
little of reducing them. That seems
to be the height of political bad
form. 1t simply isn't done. Nor is
it likely that it will be- done until
there is an ill-bred, nationwide howl
of such proportions that our ma
tional, state and city legislators can
not disregard it. The most agree
able Of all light occupations and the
hardest to give up is the spending of
other peoples money, with the know
ledge that when one wants more one
has only to make hurry touch thru
the taxgatherer.
The most urgent problem before
the country today, excepting only i'm
migration, is the deflation of the tax
gatherer-congress, state legislature
and city council. There can be no
AAoA uCAdIAOu VI duyIAluS, no SCI
tied prosperity, no return to the
normally" Of which we have been
hearing so much in political
speeches, until this is accomplished.
But at present the thought of our
legislators largely runs to changing
methods Of taxation and to tapping
new sources of revenue instead of
to cutting down expenditures.
The billion-dollar congress is still
fresh in the memory of the present
generation. In our innocence we
were rather proud Of our government
for costing so much. This congress,
too, can immortalize itself as a bill
lion-dollar congress-by saving bill
lion. This can be done, and it should
be done preliminary to consideration
of the new revenue bill. The Ma
tional Automobile Chamber of COM
merce, in an instructive little circu-
lar on taxation that it has just put
out, is even more optimistic than
billion. But billion would be a
good start.

gether with the other powers on the
question of world peace would result
