HOW TO FIGURE INCOME TAX

There need be but little trouble to
figure your income tax. In the first
place, it may be worked out by alge-
bra, astronomy, trigonometry or syn
tax, and then your answer may be
correct and it may not. If YOUR in
come is $1,000 a year, and you have
diamond ring and an automobile, and
are married to brunette oir' 26
years old. you take the amount of
your income and add your wife's
height and divide by your telephone
number. If you have any children in
the family, you subtract 5000 from
your income, add the amount of your
personal property, multiplying the re-
suit by your waist measure, subtract
the size of your collar and your
child's age, multiply by the amount
you have given the church during the
year, and divide by the number of

The Soviet is the Spanish
InquisitiOn and the Bishop a
Stiff.nacked NOncOnfOrmist.

The Russian Soviet spaciously tells
us that the Greek and Roman Catho-
lie church heads have consistently
plotted against their Revolution. For
political and not spiritual reasons
the Catholic bishop was executed.
Is this so?
The truth has not reached us yet.
If the bishop violated the statute laws
of the land he could be dealt with as
a political offender. If he refused to
stultify his spiritual belief and to re-
cant his firm conviction he wins al
though dead and the Soviet loses
though it rolls relentlessly on Such
is the moral law.
The Soviet espousing the cause of
Humanity and denying God takes up
the role of the Spanish Inquisition.
1t commits crimes as great as the in
tolerant and bigoted clerical powers
of the middle ages were guilty OF.
Sometimes these powers were Catho-
lies as in the case of the Spanish In
QUESTION and the French persecution
of the Huguenots. Sometimes they
were prOtestants as in the case OF
Henry the Eighth. And sometimes
they were the prosecuted themselves
as in the case Of the Puritans who
fled from England to escape persecu-
ton and set up intolerancy here.
A fundamental Of free government
is freedom of conscience. Our rela-
ton to God is personal and not a
state matter. Each must have the
right to believe and practice accord
ing to the light given him. We rem
der unto the magistrate that which is
due him and unto God the things that
are Gods. So, in modern sense, do
we put into practice the immortal
answer of Jesus to the Pharisees.
If, as claimed, the Soviet leaders
aim to destroy religion their tactics
are wrong. Religions thrive best I'M
der persecution. The wrong in them
can best be combatted by peaceful
means.

WHEN SPRING CONES
TO THE COUNTRY

People who live in cities used to
think they were enjoying the delights
of country life if they would take
short vacation in the rural districts
in the heat of midsummer. At that
lime the country was often so parch-
ed thai it had none of its real beauty.
The city folks who never witnessed
the gradual unfolding Of spring in
country neighborhood have never
half lived. To get it's full charm they
need to start from the earliest days
Of reviving nature, and if they live in
a snowy country they should share
the sense of renewed freedom that
comes when the snow banks melt
away from the open fields, and the
streams burst their icy chains, and
the good brown earth once more
gathers in the sunlight. The first
swelling of buds has a charm that the
city man scarcely realizes. Long be-
fore the green leaves blossom out,
those glossy buds are growing bigger
and filling the tree tops with soft
misty haze that forecasts summer
beauty to come.
The return of the spring birds is
glorious event in country life. Every
familiar bird note is a welcome voice,
telling of another season of fruitful
ness and joy. When the leaves finally
come out in all their soft green glory,
of far more ethereal tint than the
one that prevails through the heat OF
summer, the earth seems a more
heavenly place even than under the
most brilliant autumnal foliage. The
hlossoming of fruit trees and shrubs
is a time when the earth seems verify
to sing for joy.
1t may be thought that country peo-
pie are struggling and working so
hard that they see none OF these
things. But country people as a
whole are deeply sensitive to all this
beauty. There are satisfactions IN
this panorama of changing seasons
that can never be found in the luxur1-
Gus mansions and artificial pleasures
that some find in city life.-Traer

Three Presidential BOOmS
Now Being Aired.

Early as it is presidential booms
are being heard. AS 1924 approaches
these bOoms will grow or die out and
new booms will be heard from.
La Follettes friends are booming
him for President as Wisconsin's
favorite son. One slogan put out car
ries the state cry of progress, ION
Wisconsin," Entwined are two SEN
timents: 1.-THE Will of the People is
the Law of the Land" and Bob La
Toilette for President in 1924"
The Herald cannot help but think
that while the will Of the people is
the law of the land" the rule does
not apply in Wisconsin. In this state
the will of the people at least toward
being governed and cOrralled one way
and another by commissions is hard
ly considered. Senator La Toilette
being the supreme political power in
the state must bear the responsibility
for what we consider is the restruc-
ton of democratic government and
the establishment of costly bureau
cracy at Madison.
We Go not believe Senator La Fol
lette has a chance at the presidency
although we do believe he has done
some very constructive work for the
nation
President Hardings boom seems to
be resented by him. Harding has
gained a good deal of ground in past
year and present indications are that
he will be the party nominee although
strong progressive opposition may de-
velop.
Henry Ford's boom goes merrily
forward. Mr.. Ford has good chance
toward the democratic nomination if

Earnest Cooperation to Make
our Growth Sure.

Wickenburg needs a live
real estate agency. It was
real estate men that built
up Los Angeles. That's the
difference between Wicken-
burg and other live towns.
We have mineral resources,
purest water, and a climate
that cannot be beat anywhere
on earth; soil fertile and
adapted to horticulture, iden-
t1cal with that of Fresno,
California, and an area of
thousands of acres whose in
tense development has not
yet begun. There are some
drawbacks, but all OF them
may be overcome. Where
ever living conditions are de-
sireable, where good schools
and churches exists, where
merchants will forego the
mercenary instinct ofpersonal
profits for general good, by
"quick sales and small pro-
hts"-that's the place where
homeseekers are attracted.
Instead of being envious so
as to decry the investment
of capital in some other en-
terprise than our own, we
need to help the other fellow
get an investor into the dis
trict rather than turn him
away because we don't in
dividually get any benefit Of
the investors money. Help
the investor to spend his
money here; see that he gets
a satisfactory bargain, and
once he buys property here,
he will be more apt to "stick'
and work out the productive
ness of his investment.

Tom CampbelI's CamouAage.

While ex-governor Thos.
E. Campbell is trying to cap
ture the position of Sec. of
the Interior, is a good time to
recall his strange parole of
Murderer Fred Koch on Dec.
22nd, only few days before
he went out of Office, without
even consulting court officials
of Cochise county. Also the
ex-governor has never fully
explained how his friends
borrowed $4,000 of State
money for improving Arizona
desert land, which never was
improved and only by acci-
dent exposed when Auditor
Kuchier was asked for $780,.
900 more to make the long
neglected improvements. We
might also ask how it came
about that the ex-governor
approved the acceptance of
$4,000 shares of Anchor
Trust oil stock, in lieu of
cash for capitalization of the
ill-fated Wickenburg Central
Bank.
Miss Elsie Toles sent this
paper the official notation
t h a Gov. Campbell had
granted Wickenburg duly
recognized High School. But
he has skinned it all back
now; and people with high
school pupils who moved
here expecting recognized
high school tuition are left
to languish like Mrs. Moriar-
ity expressed it:
"Arrah, Tommy, bye.
Why did you die?
You never did before"
On Thursday the school
trustees received a phone
call from Supt. of Schools
Jones stating that Wicken.
burg had been granted a high
school for the second time,
because there was no record
left by the outgoing admin
istration of Gov. Campbell
and the state board of educa
tion, which previously author.
lied such an action. So, in
spite Of errors and oversights
in which our city seems tc
have been slighted, she is to
get what she prayed for.
