POTATO MARKET
F. GOES .HAYW|RE
Effect of Heavy Ship
ments Is To Demor-
alize Prices.

Coincident with the declaration of
war between local cash buyers and the
California Vegetable Union. the pota-
to market started slump that contin-
ued from an active week end to de-
cided depression this week and which
hit a new low mark Thursday when
cash offerings to growers ran around
90 cents. This is the lowest price that
has been quoted since the shipping
season began. Markets Thursday
continued their slump OF Tuesday and
Wednesday, according to the federal
markets bulletin, issued hdre daily.
Not only was the price decidedly off
but the market was dull.
Heavy shipments OF last week end,
together with the fact that Minnesota
stuff is rolling out in considerable
quantities to compete with Idaho spuds
on middle western markets has served
to break the price after several weeks
of marked steadiness and active de-
mand.
Whether or not the market IS likely
to again move upward found opinion
divided among dealers here Thursday.
All thought that slight strengthening
was almost certain but many hazard
ed the belief that the Sl.2S cash price
might not be reached again for carly
stuff.
Another chapter in the local potato
war was written Wednesday when IL.
B. Tabb. spokesman for the cash buy
ers operating in this territory, fired
another broadside at the California
Vegetable Union. In essence. the new
demand asks specifically for returns

Our 1922 taxes consumed 6S7 out of

27.03 cents of every dollar of net earn
ings"
That the total 1922 taxes OF all The
railroads OF the United States almost
equalled the cost of digging the Pam
anna canal. that they exceeded cash
dividends in each year since 1917, or
the entire expense of running the
United States government in 1910. is
brought out by the statement
Railroads are the largest taxpayers
in many states, declares Mr.. Gray,
and in some counties railroad taxes
equal one-half of the total.
The statement calls attention to The
fact that railway taxes help to build
highways on which ''trackless COM
petitors" operate, and asserts that
while some highway transportation
routes are feeders to railroads, most
OF them are competitors whose tax as
sessments are much lower proportion
ately than the railroads.
The statement quotes Senator Bor-
abs recent speech in congress to the
effect that: 1T will be vrey difficult
to reduce freight rates il we continue
in this country to increase taxes upor
the railroads as we have for the last
four years. These public utilities must
collect this money from but one
source, and that is from those who
ship
Railroads, like other businesses
must pay taxes" asserts President
Gray, but they ask that the tax bur-
der be equitably distributed, and that
the public appreciate that taxation is
an element OF increasing importance
in railway costs"
The statement concludes with an in
vitaton to readers to submit construc
tive suggestions.

and September 10 TO pay their water

when the ordinance was passed by the
council and approved by Mayor John
Smeed. But w. c. Dyer and s. Earle

gather in the added so cents each
month. are not entirely certain that
some few citizens will not object to
the increase in the cost of living"
when it comes time to pay
Rates for water are exactly as they
were previous TO the increase with the
one exception OF an increased mimi
mum charge. The added charge was
aeccssary to place the water depart
ment on a business basis WITH reven-
ues sufficient to meet obligation and
provide for requirements of the pres
ent system as they became necessary.
Increased revenues will be used first
to replace old and worn out wooden
mains that have been a menace to the

CITIZENS WANT

Petition Circulators Find
Sentiment Vastly in
Favor of Small Special

II Caldwell becomes lightless city

exhausted, il will be because Caldwell
citizens were not asked TO sign peti-
tons now III circulation authorizing
the council to make special light
levy OF ia mills Tor this purpose.
While but very few OF the volunteers
circulating petitions had completed
their work Thursday afternoon, pro-
gress had been made to an extent TO
be reasonably certain that the citizens
would authorize the additional levy II
given the opportunity. While few
individuals were outspoken in oppo-
sition to the levy. favoring darkness
to Ia MILLS added to ther taxes, the
majority sentiment was overwhelming
ly in favor OF the petitions. In gem
eral. about 10 of every 20 citizens
approached promptly signed the Pc
titions.
w. w. kimple. working on Belmont
street, was the first to complete his
territory and turn in his petition. He
lost only four OF the persons he in
terviewcd and three OF these declined
to sign on the ground that they were
not taxpayers but indicated that they
favored lights.
Some territory in the city had not
been touched because OF the scarcity
of workers to take out petitions. ).
Earle Boyes. city clerk, asked for vol
untcers Thursday at the Kiwanis club
luncheon. Petitions must all be in by
Saturday night Nine hundred names
will be necessary before the council
can legally authorize the special levy.

district the city and discuss the matter

doors ID. G.. Ruby and several 9TH
ers asked questions concerning various
phases of the citys financial business
These details were quickly cleared
and it became apparent that the senti-
ment represented at the meeting was
overwhelmingly in favor OF the light
ing plan. Among the dissenters was
+. F. Kipp, who wanted the city to
build power plant in Indian Greek
and utilize the power he thinks is go
ing to waste there.
