COMPACT WITH RESERVATIONS

That the state legislature will ratify the Colo
RADIO river compact, with two reservations, nov
seems to be certain. The resolution that likely
will be adopted is that introduced last week by
Senator Sims of Cochise county, and is in all es
sentials the plan proposed last fall by Dwight B
Heard.
Senator Sims resolution provides for ratifica
ton of the Santa Fe compact when andsas soon as
an agreement satisfactory to Arizona is effected
with California and Nevada in division of tht
waters of the river allotted by the compact to the
lower basin states, and when in this supplement
tary agreement among the three states each is
assured the right to collect fees, royalties ano
taxes from hydro-eleetric plants that may be bull
on the river.
The resolution further provides for rescind
ment unless the agreement among the three
states is effected within four years.
Against this proposed ratification with tive
eservations, is Senator St. Charles resolution in
reduced during the first week of the session, te
tatify the compact as it now stands Senator St
Charles did not push his resolution, preferring te
wait until all the various propositions had beer
made in tangible form, then to discuss and settle
them all at one time.

FORMER KINGS

All Elk Kings Able To Ward
Off Coming of Poverty;
Have Big Incomes

| Berlin, April Fisherman royalty
is still far from being impoverished
The present annual income of ex-
sovereigns of the German states
while perforce considerably smaller
than that Of pre-war days, is still to
be considered munificent compared
to the salary of the president, Of the
German Reich.
To refute the frequent reproach
that a republic is an especially ex-
pensive form of government and that
consequently, taxpayers Jared better
during the days Of the empire, the
Berliner MOrgenpOst has compiled d
list of the comparative incomes of
German sovereigns before and after
1913
The ex-king Of Prussia had the
highest income by far of all the rul-
ing .potentates of the empire. His
fixed annual salary amounted to 49,
| 00O,O 900 marks (about $4,50O,OOO). In
his capacity as German kaiser he
drew a further income of 100000
marks, or $750,000, for running ex-
penses. But the actual expenses of
the imperial court were betrayed
from the Prussian civil list. When

fell below 100000 marks, the trea.
sury of the royal household insisted
upon an increase of the civil list.
cording tg this system, William II
his reign, to increase his private
fortune from 10000 marks, at the
time Of his throne ascension in 1888
to the imposing sum of $4,000, ,OOO
marks, or $4,000, ,100 Special ex-
penses that cropped up were promp.
tly covered by the sale Of real estate,
ostensibly the property of the crown
as when, for example, the large plot
today the site of the state library,
was sold to the Berlin municipality
for the sum of 5000. 900 sarks. This
money was utilized for building the
new royal stable. Since William II
abdicated he has received moneys
from the Prussian state and the
Reich aggregating 13,00O,0O0 marks
or $3,OOO0O0. The largest payment
was that accruing from the sale to
the German republic of the palace
in Wilhelm Strasse-today the Exc
cutive Mansion-for which $4,000, 600
was realized. In addition, the men,
bers of the Eohenzollern family re-
ceiye a total annuity of 100000
marks, pending the definite settle
ment, of Their claims.
The other German sovereigns
while receiving much less, are still
very comfortably situated, and not
withstanding their abdication have
continued to live as millionaires, for
the settlement with their respective
states proved an excellent business
for them. Moreover, today they may
dispose of their fortune as they
please, unhampered by any statutes

weak and disordered. After giving
her Doan's Pills, the trouble left and
