of illustrating what he will do to taxes if elected

Of this 1922 levy of 40 million, 81 million was for
county city school district purposes over which the gov
ernor could have no possible control whatever
Of the remaining million for state purposes only three
and one half million taxes whcih the LEGISLATURE
has any discretion and of this amount only TWO ana one
half million are the actual expenses of state
and might therefore, the remoest degree De charged
to the methods employed by governor in administering
the States affairs.
In passing should be noted that this state levy is an
of Al percent since 1916 and not several hundred
percent as stated various occasions by the
candidate 1t should also be noted that less than half OF TINS
Al percent occurred during Mr. Ocos administration
This ability to keep the cost of the state government

clerk Floyd D. Moore has been
preparing the election material
the mast week and now has the
Official November ballots in the
hands of the printer and they will
shortly be ready for distribution.
Nm the ballots there are almost as
many measures to vote on as there
arc offices to fill. Six state meas
ures two submitted by the county
court and Dallas voters have four
ebarter amendments to consider.
In the course of preparing the
ballots it was incumbent upon the
county clerk to count the regis
trants, which show total of 1885
n the county and which are affil-
tated as follows: Republicans
ls75 democrats 2297, prohibi-
tionists los, socialists 80 and mis-
cellaneous 219.
The city ticket calls for seven
officials, but all spaces are blank
except that of city auditor, which
is being sought for by the in
cumbent, ]. T. Ford. The other
offices including mayor will have
10 be filled by the voters writing
in the name of their choice as can
didate, and no doubt the election
boards will have many names to
record, but if the voters haven't
honestly decided upon a capable
nerson for those places they
should leave the spaces blank and
not worry the election boards with
the work of recording every Tom,
Dick and Harry's name.

Both have had experience as coun-
