Sen0te ShOUdOLU7l On Bonus
 Issue Expected Ihis Week

WashingtesA,. Aug. .R4.-Sena.
 torial advocates of straight .out
 cash compensation for ex-service
 men went to bat today when the
 Senate resumed consideration of
 the McCunabcr-EOrdney Soldiers
 Bonus Bill with little prospect of
 final showdown befeFe the end
 Of the weeh.
 Senator BursunA, Republican, of New Mexico, cnairman of the Sem ate Pensions Committee, led the fight for a cash bonus with his substitute which would provide immediate pay menf of fifty per cnt of the amount due ex-servfce men on the basis of $1.2s a day for overseas and @ $1 day for home service in accordance with the length of that service. The remaining fifty per cent would be paid five years later.
 Pay the boys who want it-spot cash-lnstead of offering them prom was the keynote of Bursum's argtt- ment as he challenged the statem ent of Chairman McCumbef of the Sen ate Finance Committee, that deferr- ed pawn ents runIng over forty years, as provided by the MeCumberF'erd- neY measure, would allow the easiest solution of the bonas problem.
 "The easiest solution of the ques- ton Is economy, aside from giving our service men what they want ' said Bursum. "The chairman of the finance committee says a fA.r conser- vative estimate would place the final cost of his plan at S3,500,0eO,0OO, scattered over forty years. I estimate

 Bursun centended that i've must either admit our debt te eur eK-seF- vice men, or fepudia eo it.''

 Democratic opposition to the Me- Cumber-Fordney bill was indicated when several minority Senators alse attacked 1t as team ouf1age'' and de- clared 1t was their intention to offer 9 substitute for 1t.
 Tt was the belief, however, of Me- Cumher and other supporters of the bill. that 1t would prevail in the end. The amend ment that was expected to muster the most strength was the McNary Land Reclamation measure. The McNary proposal provides irri- gation and drainage projects in the West and South In addition to giving eX-service men preferential home stead rights.

Charles R. Howe Democratic Candidate For
 Tax Commissioner

Charles k. Howe, chairman of the State Tax Commission and candidate for reelection, has had eighteen years experience as a tax official in Ari- Zona.
 The Tax Commission appraises and values for tax purposes each year more than one-half of all the property in the state. This includes the great producing mines, railroads, private car lines, telegraph, telephone and ex- press property.
 When MT. Howe became tax con- missioner the main line railroad in Coconino county was taxed on basis of about $10,000 per mile. This same railroad now pays taxes on a value Of $69,000 per mile. At that time the great producing mines paid only l9 per cent of the taxes of the state. They now pay 50 per cent. Private car lines escaped taxation entirely. They now pay taxes on value of nearly $3,000,000. Telegraph, tele- phone and express property paid lit- tie or no taxes. They now pay taxes on a value of more than $4,000, ,O00. These tremendous changes have been made with a minimum of litigation and have worked no hardship on the companies.
 It has taken nerve and stamina in the men who brought about this trans formation in the habits of territorial days, but it is worth while. Now, every county is enabled to have good schools, better roads and bridges, clos CT communication and association, which necessarily means better cit izenship.
 The tax commission is no place for a man with jellyfish back bone. The voters and taxpayers appreciate the good work done by MT. Howe during his term of office and are not going to vote to undo that work.-Adver- tisement

SPRING VALLEY NEWS
 + 4 < < < < < < < < < +*++%

We are having plenty of rain and crops look good with the exception of grain which will be light on account of rains coming so late.
 The potato bugs were mighty bad for short time. The spray of blue stone and lime seemed joke and the bugs used it as an appetizer. How ever, we have discovered a sure dead ly bug spray in the form of "white mule" at about 90 proof. One spray of that and the bugs are done for. It would be advisable for any potato grower to keep a good supply on hand to dope up his potato patch with when bugs get start on him.
 Road gangs have started work on the Spring Valley cutoff to Red Lake and expect to get over the worst of it before fall.
 Mrs. Chas. Howard, accompanied by Miss Alice Coalter drove up from Phoenix the latter part of last week and were the guests of friends for a couple of days.
