the money spent on roads. The

parts Of the county on repair work,
when a man with ordinary intelli-
gence after road has been con-
structed could repair these roads as
intelligently without stakes as with
them. We think the supervisors
should curtail these expenditures. We
would call your attention to the fact
that 20 cents per mile is allowed to

cars. We think that in the case Of
certain individuals they have been
able to buy new cars every six
months on the profit OF this mile

Of this mileage to 1914 cents per mile
for all county service.
We have checked up many items Of
schools at different places. We find
that the expenses OF the sports are
questionable and that the carrying
Of baseball, basket ball and football
teams around over the county during
the school term takes the students
away from their books and is prob
ably more OF a detriment than a
benefit and works great hardship
on any parents who are unable to
cope with the added expense caused
by this practice. The question of
the various county officials and sub
ordinates organizing with other coun-
ties into special organizations and
holding conventions along the border
at the expense of the public is ques.
tionable and it seems to us that the
service is more impaired than inn
proved and any official seeking to
belong to any of these special organ
izations should do SO at his own ex-
pense.
County hospital is probably the
most efficient of it's kind in the
state; it is well conducted. We find
several foreigners being kept there

abnormally high. We would urge or
the buyer for the county hospital of
the need of at least securing as low

Cochise County Taxpayers Assn.
Gentlemen:
Your secretary took charge of the
office last May. 1t was thought best
to discontinue the office at Tomb
stone, get in touch with actual ex-
penditures of the county and checK
up on various expenses. The office
was closed and the custom Of send
ing out copies of expenditures from
the county files was discontinued.
Your secretary has been in touch
with some of the conditions in the
Estate in which, it seems, the tax
layers are vitality Interested. An
audit of the books by the senate
committee in Phoenix showed
shortage in the office of two ex-
state treasurers, corporation COM
mission, secretary of state, state
game warden, sanitary board and
state auditor. At the instigation of
the committee, suits were filed at
that time against these officers and
their bondsmen, who were all re-
putable bonding companies The ex-
auditor, Fairfield, whose shortage

secretary of the state, Ernest Hail.
fought his case in the superior court
where he lost it. The case is now
on appeal up at the supreme court.
The balance of the shortages, amount
ing to about s275,OOO, have not been
pushed, though three years have
elapsed. The people of the state paid
for these bonds and your officers are
urging the prosecution of these cases.
The state tax rate is raising each
year and We seem to get no added
benefits. Take the first appropria-
ton bill for the university last year,
of approximately 100000, with the
attachment of the questionable emer-
gency clause. The chairman of the

Hy JOHN RAYMOND

In the dim ages OF history when man
FIRST felt the desire for beauty, traders
searched the world for dyestuffs, Jew
els, perfumes, spices and precious
woods. The risk OF these voyages was
great and only princes or mobiles could
afford the fruits of ventures to the far
corners of the world. No man Of
humble origin could aspire TO the rich
crimsoned linen, the Royal Purple Of
ancient Tyre, retailing at 5000 pound.
Royal Purple is an age-old insignia
of aristocracy. This dye was secreted
by a small shellhsh on the Eastern
coast of the Mediterranean and here
the enterprising merchants Of Tyre
formed a dye monopoly equaled only
by the German Cartel
A bit of the whitish liquid secreted by
this mollusk, if spread upon a cloth
and exposed to the air and sunlight
turns first green, next blue and then
purple. Ii washed with an alkaIi soap
it becomes the magnificent Crimson
worn by the Cardinals and Princes of
the Catholic Church. Tyrian purple
vanished from the marts of the world
with the fall OF Tyre.
Synthetic chemistry learned the Sc
cret of making Royal Purple as, in
deed, it learned to manufacture indigo,
the same deep blue that may be seen
today in museums, the winding sheets
Of Egyptian mummies. 1t was an
achievement TO snatch its distinctive
color from royalty and to rival the
best vegetable indigo of the an
clients but modern chemistry has
gone far beyond that. Today any kind
of dye found in nature can be made in
the laboratory. Indeed, among the 900
shades and colors being manufactured
there are tints that it would be diff
cult to discern in the rainbow.
