Isn't it strange how the old copy
book maxims work out. Here we
have a New York State legislator
who suggests a law to compel the
courts to declare a man or a woman
sane or insane whenever an exam
nation is demanded. Funny kind
of a law, isn't it-and yet a court
decision that a mar is sane at a
given date pinned to the will he
makes would stop the clogging of
our courts with pernicious lawsuits,
and enable Il man to do as he wishes
with his own. So childish maxims
loom before us-an ounce of pre-
vention is worth a pound of cure.
Good to recall the eopybook once in
a while.

The Meanest a

The meanest man on record is said
TO live in Shrewsbury, Mass. He sold
his son-inlaw one-half of a COW, and
then refused to divide the milk, main
tanning that he sold only the front
half. The buyer was also requested
to feed the COW and carry water to
her three times a day. Recently the
cow hooked the old man, and now he
is suing his son-in-law for damages.

may easily figure that according to
this statement the railway valuations
should be increased six times, or
other property decreased about one
sixth. Either mode Of procedure
would have practically the same ef-
feet.
II the valuations fixed by the Colo
RADIO Tax Commission as given In
their report for 1922 be multiplied
by six, the total valuation for the
state would be nearly twothirds OF
the total valuation OF the entire state.
The same process for Weld county
would bring railway valuations for
the same year up to ninety-one mil
lion out Of total of lit million, or
more than three-fourths Of the total.
Applying the same process to this
school district would bring the Burl-
ington assessment up to s2,700, 900,
or nearly double what the total val
uation Is now.
The very extravaganza Of the state
ment discredits the claims made. On
the eve Of election such things may
make votes, because there is no time
to refute; but in the end such things
hurt the man who makes the claim
more than anyone else, because the
people will discover the deception
and will afterwards not pay any at
tention to him, even after he may
have learned moderation and to be
exact in his statements.
We are disappointed that Mr..
Dakan should be betrayed into such
extravagant statements, for while we
have thought him extreme in many
OF his views. we have felt that we
could listen to him and gain valu-
able information because OF his ex-
haustive study and his fidelity to
facts.

without rains. We have one school
route that q pond will make the dis.
trict four miles and better per day
extra mileage. 1t Is a piece OF road
that Is important to the people south
AZ well as to the mail route.
We believe that the school district
could better afford to pay for q ditch
to drain the pond than to make the
extra mileage. But the district
should not be required to stand that
expense. The district pays about
five thousand dollars in road tax.
Only small part OF that need to be
spent on our roads to put them In
fair condition. with reasonable CO.
operation.
That reasonable cooperation brings
another thing to the front There is
place where We must look to home.
In the first place each resident should
see that the weeds along the high.
way In front Of his farm are moved.
II Is our understanding that the law
requires this, but It is a requirement
seldom enforced. 1t should not re-
Quire enforcement. Pride in the ap-'
pearanee OF your place and your
own convenience In travelling should
lead to the weeds being moved.
II this is done. 1t will aid a great
deal In the economical operation Of
the school trucks. :.
Another thing that has stood In
the way Of securing work, Is the
price that can be paid for county
work on roads. We understand that
the county allows but IS per day for
maa and team. During the har-

NEW LAW WOULD
 EXCLUDE; LAPS LIKE CHINESE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6-The exclu- sion of all Japanese except clergymen, professors, members of the learned professions and students, will be one of the result of the new immigration bill now under consideration by the House Immigration Committee, if a provision which was approved yester- day by the committee becomes a per manent feature of the bill. The sec tion of the bill given approval by the Committee provides that no aliens in- eligible to citizenship shall be admit ted to the country except those who are students and members of the learned professions. This is virtu- ally the same law which is now opera tive with respect to the Chinese. The new provision makes it applicable to all aliens not eligible to become citi- zens of the United States.
