STATE FIGHTS rTsELF-TAxPAYER PAYS

State Game Warden Willard has discovered the
state has some 900 funds on hand collected
from fines for violations of the game laws and the
sale of game licenses. He desires to expend it
along with the regular appropriation made for
that office by the legislature The state auditor
SAYS that funds can not be spent by the game
warden The attorney general upholds the con
tention of the state auditor and advises that the
game warden has no right to check out such
funds since the legislature has especially provid
ed fund for him to use in the conduct of his of
flee Came Warden Willard hired attorneys, pre-
sumably from the legislative appropriation to
fight the decision of the state auditor, also the
attorney general. The attorney general is paie
by the state to advise all state officials The
game warden does not like his advice, consequent,
ly takes the matter to the superior court. The
superior court has decided with the state audi
tor and attorney general. This does not satisfy
Mr. Willard and he will carry the case to the SUI
preme court.
Such state of affairs does not appeal to the
average citizen. The taxpayers money is being
spent by one element of the state administration
to fight another element of the state adJninistra-
tion, which also pays out the taxpayers money tc
sustain it's contention. The taxpayer pays the
double cost regardless of the result.
Then again why should the legislature appro-
pirate money for running the game warden's Of
flee if he was expected to also spend all the re
ceipts of the office?
1t appears that the state is fighting itself with
the taxpayers money.

BILL KELLY LOOKING FOR TROUBLE

Col, Fred Breen and his good wife have returned
to their home in Flagstaff from trip around the
world which consumed five months. Colonel
Breen has many years been the owner and editor
of the Coconino Sun and during his absence he
wrote many interesting letters telling of his OBJ
servations in the various countries as he passed
through them. Now it will be again in order for
the friends of Colonel Breen to their efforts
to induce him to become the republican candidate
for governor. Two years ago the insistence for
Colonel Breens candidacy became so strong as to
bring from the colonel firm declination With
Breen out of the way it was then easy for Dwight
B. Heard to win the republican nomination over
Tom Maddock.--Graham County Guardian.
Awful pleased Bill at the insinuation that
passing around the world might afflict man that
way. Of course our idea in cavortin' around the
world was with the sole purpose of locating Siam
to see whether or not it would be an acceptable
landing place or not. Our boat failed to find the
place and on getting home our church suggested
that I'd make bum minister" anyhow; conse-
quently we gave up the idea of going into training

in Arizona next year will be of the upheaval order

THRILLS IN FIGHT CARD

Lumber Co. camp, and Hoskie D. Be-
gay, a Gallup Indian who had been
working there, was for four rounds.
1t was a grudge fight, the two having
mixed it several times at camp. The
Indian soon had the crowds prefer
ence because of the attempted comedy
and vicious wrestling of Underwood.
In the last round, after Underwood
had tried to drape the copper-skin
over a chaiF~and then turned to. walk
away, the Indian pecked him one from
behind. Underwood went to his knees,
then quit cold.
1t would be nice to see revival of
the fighting game here, but it will
take better cards than those of Tues

CHIEF FORESTER DESERVES PRAISE

The sheepnen are to be congratulated upon
gaining the decision from Chief Forester Greeley
against making a 20 per cent cut on sheep graz
ing on national forests. During the past few
years the sheep industry has been hard hit from
all quarters. Feed bills last winter alone will
more than use up the wool crop with an exceed
ngly dry summer to help use up money received
for the lamb crop. The sheepmen were in tight
place in any event and an arbitrary cut of 20 per
cent on top of it all practically meant ruin.
The rumor that it is the intent of the govern
ment to eventually exclude sheep from all tim
bered areas is hardly taken seriously by the best
posted sheepmen.
If the order to cut down 20 per cent had gone
through it would have made a big reduction in our
taxable valuation resulting in higher taxes to all
taxpayers.
We believe Chief Forester Greeley is entitled to
much credit for arriving at the decision favorable
to the sheepmen and concelling the order for the
big cut.
The Coconino sun., 1925-05-29

Governor Hunt, realizing we have the greatest
state in the union for year round. climate and
scenery that has no equal in the world has issued
a proclamation urging all Alizonans to 'see Ari-
IONA first" 1t is impossible for an A1izonan to
be good booster unless he knows the length and
breadth of his state. About all the average
fastener has heard about Arizona is that it is
awfully hot, dry and great desert All of them
have heard that but not one in ten thousand has
heard much of anything else California has aided
and abetted in keeping this idea alive to the ex-
cusion of all else. Some have heard Of the Grand
Canyon, but merely because it is claimed as a
suburb Of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is getting 4
dose of her own medicine of late years. It is get
ting to be known as the junction where you get

LEF'S DO IT RIGHT

Rumors that more repairs or an addition will be
made to'our antiquated court house some time in
the near future. Owing to lack of room to accom-
modate all officers of the county, the county is
paying outside rentals of about S2400 per year. In
cur Judgment it would be great deal cheaper to
continue paying this rental until the county can
afford to bond itself for new building entirely.
A $4,000 addition as now proposed would only
make temporary botch job of the whole affair
and be more or less of blight to the surrounding
scenery. When the Job is done it should be done
right

A REASONABLE REQUEST

We believe that DR.. George w. Stephens, super
intendent Of the state hospital for the insane at
Phoenix, is perfectly right in writing to the SUI
perior judges of the state asking their cooperation
in limiting commitments to such persons who are
actually insane. 1t must be most annoying to all
parties conceIned-to the person sent to the
asylum who is not insane as we'll as to the medi-
cal authorities in charge of the asylum who have
merely cured the person committed legal
techncality.

The fact that young lady belle of the village

man with a child large enough to pack a gun
should be more conservative.
