A REMARKABLE RECORD

~HE consummate skill with which the nation $
 | finances have been handled is reflected in the report of Secretary Mellon on the condition ot the treasury on June Both, the last day ot the fiscal year, 1922. An estimated deficit of S24OOO,- GOO has been turned into actual surplus ot S314,O0OOO0 In addition the public debt has been reduced by $1O14,OOO,000
 It Is probable that never before in the history of the country has fiscal year shown such a tremendous reaction in favor of economy and sound financial policies The gross extravaganza that had featured the former administration gave way to program of rigid economy when Presi- dent Harding took office on March 1, 1921. It has been impossible, however, to estimate aocur- atev the full effect of republican retrenchment until the completion of the first fiscal year under republican rule The actual figures made public by Secretary Mellon are an ample reward to the voters who put their confidence i'll the republican policies and candidates.
 Equally important, also, is the manifestation of determination on the part of the administra- ton to continue and increase economics in the future After first nstituting rigorous reductions in expenditures i'll his own official household at the White House, saving large per cent of the sums spent under the previous administration,
 
 President Harding has addressed to the heads of all departments and bureaus a demand for still closer scrutiny of their activities and atten- dant expenditures.
 In this highly laudable demand, President Harding is entitled to the full and sincere CO., operation of all the people. There is constant agitation for the extension of federal activities for new or enlarged public service Those who promote such movements secure the endorsement of individual citizens and organizations of citi- zens thus bringing pressure to bear upon congress for increased appropriations. All citizens who desire to aid the president in his economy efforts should refuse to be party to any movement for added public expenditures.
 If the president and his department heads can have the cooperation of the people, further sue cess will crown the effort to reduce expenses and also taxes.

CALF GOES MAD

DOUGLAS.-Following the death of two mad-dogs, one of which bit a calf on the ranch of John H. and George z Rogers near Douglas, the calf became mad and two boys who doctored the calf, not knowing it was mad, are now taking the Pasteur treatment. The boys, Frank Lee and Burt Gibbs, are being treated at the suggestion of the Rogers brothers.
 It is considered mirable that the boys were not bitten, but fortunately the calf did not experience its worst frenzies until after they had tried to relieve its pain. Both lands were under the impression that the calf had swallowed poison.

FEAR THEIR OWN SHADOWS

|THE people of France seem to be in state
 l of agitation all the time, afraid of everything especially Germany. If they would calm down and look at the gongs on in the world unafraid, settlement that would make peace throughout Europe might be reached.
 Germany is pledged to pay certain sums of money to the Allies, reparation it is called and it is right she should pay for the damage done during the war which she brought on. But pay ments cannot be made if there is no cash and Germany has no money Other nations agreed to permit postponement of the debt but France refused If she insists and moves an army into German territory it will bring on uprising in the former Kaiser's domain anarchy may fol low, Germany, it is possible, will become another Russia.
 This is not likely, however, matter what happens, for the Germans possess a great amount of good sense and are educated. They do not resemble Russians. Also the French are kept awake nights because of their fear of Bolshevism. They think that plot has been formed whereby Germany and Russia will attack Poland and France, turn the country into the hands of the Bolshevists and generally upset all Europe. Moth ing like this can possibly happen; France is in panic of fear, and the sooner she returns to sanity and realizes that her own government is strong enough to head off Germany in any ne farious undertaking, the better off she will be.
 If Germany attacked France, the latter country will beat her in one campaign. But the last thing that the Germans will do is to engage in another war All those one time misguided folk wish is to be permitted to work, carry on business and pursue the path of peace.

NO CHANGE

TRANSPORTS followed the report that came Dfrom two cities, Philadelphia and Cleveland, that the New York Americans were planning to trade Babe Ruth to the Chicago American team for three players and bundle of money. Ruth did not play very well after he resumed diamond work this season. In the first twenty-five games his batting average was about .250, and he showed lack of condition and even lack of interest. His outside activities and his burdensome literary work apparently required too much of his attcn- ton.
 But recently he has braced up, he hits home runs, pays attention to the game, and his dcport- mcnt is excellent. Babe once more is in favor with the fans as well as his employers He is the biggest drawing card in professional baseball and it is no wonder that Mir. Huggins his mana ger, had fit when he was informed that it was reported on reliable authority Ruth was to gd to Comskeys team in the Windy City. In order to calm the fans Mr. Huggins asked to have it broadcast throughout all the land that Ruth will play with the New York team as long as he IS il the game. He never will be sold, traded or giyer away Ruth is thirty years old and should be good for another decade ill the game. After his ball playing days are over he can buy a farm or play any other game he wishes

JUSTICE TAFT RETURNS

VXTELL DONE, good and faithful servant is w the greeting given to Chief Justice Taft upon his return from visit to England.
 No one has been better representative of the real America that the chief justice; he comes ot an old American family, distinguished largely in the law he is wise, and he is born gentleman. He has been dlgent in business and has stood before kings with composure and borne himself as their equal.
 The chief justice spent twenty days in England and was entertained nineteen times at public dinners; he received degrees from three univer- sites, dined with the king, danced with the queen and at all times ,and on every occasion made a splendid impression. It is gratifying to the pride of nttive sons to have such man represent them in Me higher walks of British life. Would there were more like him in this land of ours

CAR SHORTAGE MAY
 CAUSE CANTALOPE LOSS

GLENDALE.-Much concern has been caused in and about Glendale, due to the extreme car shortage in the district. The burning of bridge near Prescott accounts for some of this shortage, but adequate cars have not been kept in reserve in Glendale and this shortage will cause an i'm mense loss to the cantaloupe growers of this district. On July II the ship pers cut down the picking to eight crates per acre, and on July 12, due to the car shortage, picking was sus- pended at noon. These facts will be shown as an immense loss to the growers and the present time is the very peak of the cantaloupe season.

SHALL MEN GO COATLESS

C OMETIMES when we see a Clean-look1ng y man, spcckless and spotess, without his coat, and note the cleanliness of His handsome shirt, fresh laundered and monogrammed, are moved to rush into print with demand that men go through the hot summers in this section without coats, as women do.
 Then we see another man, and our wish to demand coatlcss fashion dies out, and we think perhaps it is better for men to keep their shirts covered up.
 It certainly would be more comfortabIe this going without coats, and it is done in clubs of quality and class Men sit at case in these places with their coats hanging over the backs of chairs but their shirts are what they should be We are in favor of discarding the warm and uncomforta- ble outer garment.

If we were looking for the source of propa- ganda in favor of elongating the skirt we would not go to the buyer, or even to the retail seller but to the cloth manufacturer He seeks to create demand for his product and if he can convince women that a yard should be added to each skirt, he will find a market for hundreds of millions of yards of cloth which at present remain unsold or unmanufactured for lack of demand

ELO ZIEGFELD says that the laded Bcau- T ties of Paris are back of the movement to lcngthcn skirts. Mr. Ziegfed is an expert in female pulchritude but whether he is right ill his conclusion is another matter The ilappcr and the comedy young person no longer in the flaPPeI class, so far outnumber the faded beauties" that we are inclined to think he must go further for an exploitation of the fact that skirts are being length eued, if indeed they are, which we are inclined tc doubt
 The present style is so comfortable, so consis tent with common sense, so sanitary and SC modest that we can hardly believe the women will give it up.
