is THAT so?

An afternoon paper says that popular opinion
has rejected the appraisal method of taxing mines
since Mr.. Findlays report was made Is that so?
Under the 1915 net output tax law, the Chino
Copper would be assessed at about sc 100000 for
Improvements and 100000 for output; a total of
$6,S0000o. These figures given from memory.
Under Mr., Fndlays report the total would be about
slsO00,OOO.
In an off year. when metal mines closed
down that there would be taxes of consequence
under the 1915 law except for improvements. the
mines of the state assessed by Mr. Fndlay at
about the amount of the peak of the war-period
prosperity. At that Mr.. Findlay refused to consider
any Speculative values"
Under the old system the amount of taxes would
fluctuate from year to year according to the pros
perity of the business. No budgets, based on in
come. could be made by the state, for no would
know what the income to the state was to be- I'm
der appraisal system. the taxes would f1uctuate
but little.
Mr. Findlay gave basis II the tax COM
mission will begin there and raise values as it is
Justified the mine tax situation will take care of
itself
The people will hardly be "kidded" into a re-
turn to the old law.

Francis E. Wilson. prominent Santa Fe attorney,

the bond of State Treasurer Strong the people of
Santa Fe the beneficaries. Mr.. Wilson did
much work this matter than his employ
ment would Justify. Public spirit a large i'm
pelling force in his conduct
The Journal wishes the rejuvenated bank pros
porous career. 1t has great confidence In the new
president, Nathan Jaffa. The people should rally
to his side in the undertaking which he has
assumed.
The fact that the bank has opened does not
decrease the culpabty of those responsible for its
failure does it change the status of State Treas
urer Strong. Whether the state is protected by Mr..
Strong's bondsmen by direct reimbursement to the
state, or by the re-openng Of the bank through
their guarantees, is irnmateria Mr. Strong Is
either guilty not guilty of violation of the law
The financial outcome does not modify the facts
and the grand jury should not be side-tracked by
the re-opening of the bank

Der of the house of lords like the first of her sex
to enter the house of commons is an exceptionally
capable person. In the house of commons Lady
Aston, the first woman member, has rendered such

shown tact wit and thorough understanding of the
important duties she is called upon to perform. Not

The weak point in the British hereditary system

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
PRICES ARE COMING DOWN.
(From the Cincinnati Enquirer)

(From the Cincinnati Enquirer.)
Figures compiled by the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics of the United States Department of Labor.
continue to show a decline of wholesale prices.
While the ultimate consumer does not do much, if
any. buying by wholesale, he is concerned vitality
with the tendency of the wholesale markets. That
movement precedes the drops or rises at retail in
which he is interested directly. The January de-
cnes just announced are slight in most commod-
ties. The report of the bureau shows the index
number only point down from the December
average. But 1t Is progressive, If slight and the
accumulation of a number of small recessions is
what counts. Thus 1t is found that the aggregate
OF the monthly drops of wholesale prices during
the year, ended January 81 last, 20 points
That is, whereas prices year ago II per
cent higher than before the war. they now are
only as per cent higher.
What interests the consumer Is the decline in
the cost of living. During the IL months mem
toned, house furnishings have come down "a per
cent, fuel 10 per cent, building materials Is per
cent, foodstuffs whole II per cent clothing
IL per cent miscellaneous products % per cent
AS to farm products there had been during the
advanced in January, compared with December
prices and while they continued to advance in
February the rise is due mainly to a bull market
excited by reports of unfaVorable crop weather in
the southwestern states This has been largely
dispeled by recent rains and the promise is that
the wheat which spectators said killed, will
make good crop after ALL
1t is significant that fuel has declined, even with
the miners wage scale still carrying wartime pay
The adjustment accepted by non-union miners has
been to the advantage of consumers, has the
comparatively mild winter. With all this is the
prospect of another abundant harvest and the
continued fall of prices and OF the general cost
living, Ultimately will come the further adjust
Iment OF the wages Of union miners and transport
Itatlon workers, the two classes which have most
isubbornly contested against the law of supply and
demand and fought for maintenance of war scales
In spite of them the inevitable adjustment is pro-
crossing.

you were doing" said a jolly
little voice. and there stood the
pussy sister of Joie and Tommie
Kat looking at Uncle Wiggily.
"Oh, I'm Just fixing an old
chair over into a new one; that's
all I'm doing. Kittie Kat" said
the bunny. you may sit and
watch me-"
THANK you" mewed Kittie, so
she curled her tail up around her
legs, where it wouldn't be stepped
on, and watched.
/ Uncle Wiggily was fastening the
cretonne to the seat part of the
easy chair when Nurse Jane
called him out to the kitchen.
The muskrat lady wanted Uncle
Wiggily to bring her up some
coal from the cellar, and when
the bunny had done this he went
back to the fixing of his easy
chair. Kittie Kat wasn't there.
I well, l guess Kittie Kat be-
came tired of waiting to see me
finish and she has gone home"
said Uncle Wiggily to himself,
twinkling his pink nose. well,
no matter, I'll just put the COW
ering on the seat and my chair
will be finished" He kept on
lacking, and soon he called in
Nurse Jane, to see how the chair
| looked.
why, 1t is as good as newt"
exclaimed the muskrat lady. II
didn't believe you could fix it so
well. Wiggy! But what is that
lump in the middle of the seal? ?
Did you tack an old cushion I'M
der the cretonne?"
Lump? What lump" asked
the bunny, putting on his glasses
to see better. II didn't fasten
any cushion under there that
know Of"
Just then came scratching at
the door and voice called:
rs Kittie Kat in there?"
mo, Tommie," answered the
bunny, as pussy boy came in.
"Your sister Kittie was here,
watching me fix chair, but she
has gone home"
ooh, what dandy chair!"
cried Tommie. MAY l try it?"
And before any one could stop
him Tommie had sat down on the
soft, humped-up seat.
Then, ell of sudden, there
sounded:
"You! Meaouw! Wow! Please
get off me! You're sitting on mel"
Up jumped Tommie from the
chair.
"That sounded like my sister
Kittie" he cried.
Nurse Jane took the tack litter,
loosened the new covering on the
seat of the chair, and out from
! beneath it came Kittie Kat. She
had gone to sleep when Uncle
Wiggily went to the kitchen, and
she was so mixed up in the cloth
when the bunny came back that
he never noticed her, but tackled
the new cretonne right over her.
"And 1 never woke up until
Tommie sat on mel" mewed Kit
tie. I'm glad he wasn't an ele-
| phant!"
$50 am II" laughed Uncle Wig
gily. IT didn't mean to tack you
in my easy chair. Kittie. Now
that you're out I'll fasten the seat
down again" And he did, thus
making a new chair out of the
