MINE TAXES AND INVESTMENT

Repeal of the capital stock tax and amend
ment of the discovery clause comes just in time to
be great benefit to the mines producing gold
silver, lead and zinc. 1t speaks we'll for the Sc
curity and soundness of mining investments that,
in spite of the agitation and warnings against
underground and even with the great drain of
under water investments in the Florida tank
country the mining industry has been able to de-
velop new enterprises, to expand old ones, t0
evolve and apply new processes, and, in general,
to keep abreast of the demands of modern busi-
ness in the metals production industry.
= Nobody enjoys paying taxes But no sane
community wants to saddle any industry with an
excessive tax. y ts-s31A1~ -
It is true now as never before that the invest
ment in underground riches is the only road left
~@open to wealth and independence for the small
- investor A little investment need not endanger
= ones actual living, while at the same time it
opens the way to possible fortune. The same
amount saved from one S living expenses, but not
invested, leads to nothing
wp~ Excessive and discriminatory taxing of mines
and mine properties has reached the cimactic
point and we are we'll on the way to saner basis
.<of mine taxation. The changed attitude is pro-
9 4nounced both in federal and state circles, and this
has brought about pronounced change in the
attitude Of investors.
Fair legislation, fair taxing, and fair
amount Of general investment funds are no more
thanathe mining industry has right to expect.
No Nobureaucratic power should have the authority
to stifeIegitimate promotion of new enterprise
or to So entwine it in the red tape of federal blue
SKY laws that it would have to be abandoned.

THE LIMIT ON SCHOOLS

Is it high treason to call halt on school ex-
pendtures? We note that our old mentor and
object of our hero worship as a country editor,
warning against the expenditure of funds in
founding Junior Colleges in connection with the
high. schools of Colorado.
The Gunnison editor is right.
And the time has come for the People to real
ize that sacred as is the principle of free educa
ton in America, yet the public school, judged by
its fruits, is not above criticism, and the educa-
tors of the country are far from sacrosanc-.
Times up for spending.
FOR SCHOOLS, NO MORE TAXES THAN
THE EDUCATORS CAN USE.

LEO WEAvER's GUEST RANCH
Continued from page u
The Cuisine

! The Cuisine
Far be it from a scribe to put too
much stress on the Importance of
mere food but in passing we will re-
mark casually that in the guest ranch
| business, the beans make it. They
also unmake it. Mrs. Weaver super
intends this branch of activities and
with her several assistants succeeds
in keeping the meals up to a stan
dard that was set SO high that, at
the start, many accustomed caterers
were skeptical of their being contin-
ued. 1t is enough to say that such
men as are at the head of the Harvey
system have put themselves on record
as having the very best, in the last
analysis, of all the hotel tables in
Arizona. If that is not enough, Mrs,
Weaver herself has to be satisfied.
and with her it is no longer a mere
business, but an art
Future Plans
This is high praise. But the Cir
Gle Flying-W has set a standard and
nothing less than the best is ever
going to satisfy the present manage
ment. 1t is a great thing for the
| Hassayampa country to have such a
standard to work to, and no resident
in this vicinity need hesitate to
spread the gospel of the guest ranch
as practised here This resort will
compare favorably at any time and
in any way with the Castle Hot
Springs hotel or any other resort in
! the magic land of resorts that lies all
| about us here.
1t is open from October until June,
practically; and offers especial at
fractions to families. No sporty pro-
clivities are allowed to get headway
here. Boys are particularly welcome
and Leo Weaver is just naturally a
| man to handle boys as he is man
to handle colts. His personality gets
into everything that is done on the
ranch. A fine, clean, outstanding wes-
tern boy with quick eye and a mus
ical voise, and with ideas of how a
boy or colt ought to go, he can
bring out the best in either and he
can clamp down on them when nee
esary. He could make a wonderful
boys school of this ranch, and it is
one of the possibilities of the future.
In the meantime, the Circle Fly
ing-W is setting high standard as
a guest ranch. The corrals have the
enthusiastic o. X of Doc Pardee
and the table enjoys the high en-
coniurs of Marc Cruise. Leo Wea-
yer has a vision and the will to
