PRAISE FOR PARSONS
lei paso Heraldl

Arrest of Matthew Kimes, Okla
homa bandit and murderer, was nice
bit Of work by Sheriff Parsons of
Coconino county, Arizona. Police and
sheriffs will see in this incident anew
the value of broadcasting fully de-
scriptive circulars with good pictures
of criminals.
Parsons got Kimes on circular,
recognizing him from the picture. I'm
fortunately, many of the pictures of
criminals bear little resemblance to
the men themselves, and it is a credit
to the authorities that they catch as
many on circular information as
they do.
Sheriff Parsons evidently is one of
those thorough souls who studies the
circulars that come to him, whether
he ever expects to see their originals
or not. He must have done so in the
Kimes instance. He logically might
have thought Kimes hardly would
come to Arizona. After the desper-
ado's escape into the Usage Hills it
was more probable he would make for
southwest Kansas, or for Arkansas,
than through Oklahoma, west Texas,
New Mexico and into Arizona, or by
way Of the Colorado route.
He did, however, what he might
have been expected not to do The
diligent Coconino sheriff, having got
Kimes' pictures, record and descrip-
ton in his mind, was prepared and
recognized him. An attendant at
Grand Canyon national park entrance
also recognized him, having seen the
circular. Both men were alert to the
occasion and made the most of it. The
public is well served when its officials
display the zeal that these men did.
Crimes are being committed every
day and people are being arrested
and convicted. If criminals, for all
their conceit, were not the stupidest
people on earth, they would know the
utter folly of defying the law, and
would work with society instead Of
fighting it.

OUR LEGAL FEUD

The tax rate is the overhead rate of expense
which the average business man talks very seri-
ously about when speaking of his individual busi-
ness affairs.
In fact the tax rate, city, county, state and ma
tional, is the overhead the people pay for good,
bad or Indifferent government, as the case may
be-
If duly elected officials spend the tax money
according to law it is the fault of the people if the
rate is too high and luxurious. If they spend the
money according to their own ideas and regard
less of law, then the people have right to COM
plain.
The people are often fooled into believing they
have made laws to protect themselves from ex-
travagant expenditures of officials elected to ham
die the publics business affairs. Too many Of
fllcals elected by the people of late years seem
to feel they have been given a power of attorney
to run the whole works to suit themselves re-
gardess of laws intended for their guidance. IF
the law does not suit him, he goes out and hires
special lawyers with the peoples tax money to
fight the regularly elected legal advisers also paid
with the taxpayers money. No matter which way
the contest ends, the innocent taxpayer pays all
expenses.
It reminds us of Opie Reads pathetic story of
the poor boy he found sitting on log away out
in the Ozarks, crying as If his heart would break
This evidence of abject sorrow touched Opie's
heart and he asked with deep sympathy: Whats
the great trouble sonny?'
Between sobs the boy explained: va see they
was feud between MaW's folks and Paws folks
They runned away and got married. All the folks
on both sides was shot off. Paw and Nav started
the &eud agin after was borned an I'm the only
residue / know both Paw and Nav is cryin' fer
revenge n dunno jest how t. kill mysef t please
'em both. Nav cut n Paw, he shot"

OUR ARIZONA WEATHER

Chicago newspapers evidently believe that Ar-
zona weather is all manufactured and distributed
from Phoenix, at least Phoenix is the only place
noted in their weather reports. If our Chicago
newspaper friends really wished to advise their
readers of facts as they exist, wouldn't it have
been only fair to report the fact that Flagstaff,
Arizona-don't forget the "Arizona'--has been
the coolest place in the United States up to the
time that President Coolidge moved the White
House to Rapid City, South Dakota Sounds like
a joke but that's the low down official weather
record.
We don't blame the people of the middle west
and east for associating the name Arizona with
hot burning desert, ella monsters, ratteSnakes
and six-shooters. Our loving friends in Caifor-
MIA attend to that. And our ill-advised friends
back east pass through Arizona in the night or
over a desert route in the day time They are
told little and know less of Arizona after skipping
through it on excursions to the Golden Vest
Los Angeles
They go to Los Angeles to see the Grand Can
yon. They go through the state that contains
the greatest contiguous pine timber belt in the
world.
They skip through a state which produces more
copper than any other state in the Union.
When they "high-hat'' Arizona they pass up
unnoticed a state with climate that produces
valuable crops varying all the way from oranges
to pine trees. 1t would be wonderful if some of
the old gang on the Chicago papers were dele
gated to come away from the lake and discover
this country-Arizona They wouldn't believe it
was the same old United States they had been liv-
ing in and writing about. Yeah, boys When your
ole noodle begins to bog down and fogs dim your
eyes, buy a pair of overwhelming along your
overcoat and BVD,s. Don't bother about a
machine gun side arms. Bring fish hooks and
a disposition to see and appreciate new things
on every days journey.
Just make up your mind you're going to see
human foks-foks who are too busy living and
enjoying life to be tempted by any profits that
could be made by the sale of the old Madison street
bridge or the Masonic temple. Or, even building
a roof over Lake Michigan. Maybe the folks
shoot out here at times, but they know what they
are shooting at and most often hit, but seldom
does one attempt to mop up hull buggy load of
folks in order to punish one occupant.

YES, WE HAVE NO GAS TAX
FOR YOU
Tucson Starl

\
Everyone ought to be satisfied with
the supreme court ruling relative to
the three-cent gasoline tax except
Governor Hunt and the state highway
department.
Briefly, the court ruled as follows:
The three cents gallon gasoline
tax is legal according to ruling
made yesterday by the Arizona SUI
preme court, and its collection will
continue. The court, however, ruled
that the one-quarter of the tax which
goes to the state highway department
cannot be expended, but must be held
in the general fund of the state I'M
til legislative action authorizes the
highway department to spend the
money.
The court further ruled that the
quarter of the gasoline tax which is
credited to the rs per cent fund of the
counties can be expended, and that the
80 per cent of the tax going direct to
the counties can be spent as in the
past.
The court also ruled that the mill
tax on motor vehicles is legal and
continues, and that the 10-cent prop
erty tax also is legal
The court orders that the writ of
mandamus against the treasurer be
made permanent
Although State Treasurer Cal
laghan technically lost the case so far
as the writ of mandamus is concerned,
he, and the anti-administration forces,
won victory SO far as preventing the
state highway department from ex-
pending what it had claimed as it's
share of the gasoline tax.
Depriving the state highway depart
ment of this fund, as pointed out be-
fore in this column, places the adj
ministration in an embarrassing posi-
ton. The governor, however, brought
the trouble upon his own head when
he vetoed the highway bill passed by
the eighth legislature. The legisla-
ture passed an excellent bill that pro-
vided for reorganization of the de-
partment and for ample funds for fl
nancing it. The governor did not like
the reorganization feature of the bill
ard turned it down
State Treasurer Callaghan is to be
commended for his stand in refusing
to turn the Is per cent fund over to
the highway. department. His office
is a public trust, and he is respecting
that trust.
1t might be pointed out also that
two Tucson attorneys, Ralph W. Bilby
and Ben B. Mathews, very ably rep
resented the state treasurer's office
in the hearing before the supreme
court. Their presentation of argu-
ments before the court did much to
make the decision possible.
Now comes the question: what is
the governor going to do about the
financing of the state highway de-
partment? Having vetoed the appro-
priation bill, and being unable to get
funds elsewhere, win he now call an
extra session in an attempt to force
down the throats of the legislators the
kind of bill he wants ~
An extra session would not be out
of place, although it would be costly
to the state. The state highway de-
partment must have fnnds-legal
funds, not borrowed funds. But be-
fore it gets funds, it must be reor-
ganized so that political aspirants may
not use it at elections
1t is understood from unofficial
sources at the capitol in Phoenix, that

MORE RIVER CONFERENCES
lDouglas Dispatchl

y
Indications are that there is to be
another seven-state conference called
for the purpose of arriving at an
agreement for the apportionment of
the water of the Colorado river.
1t has been the hope, although rath-
er a forlorn one, of many interested
in the development of the Colorado
river that the recent river commission
provided for by the last legislature
would take common sense view of
the situation and secure an adjudica-
tion of the rights of the states in the
river through the courts.
If the United States government
reserved its rights in the Colorado riv-
er at the time it granted statehood
to Arizona, the fact should be deter
mined first The fact that the river
is not a navigable stream negatives
the theory that the federal govern
ment has any rights in the stream, un-
less expressly reserved, and the COM
mon law theory of water rights OPP
poses the right of the federal govern
nlent to make any reservations on
non-navigable streams. The land
along the stream theoretically has the
right to the beneficial use of the wa
ter in the river 1t is difficult to see
how this right could be prejudiced by
the building of dams and the develop
ment of power, assuming that only the
flood waters would be impounded In
fact, water rights for the beneficial
use of the water would be enhanced
by power dams, as danger Of floods
would be diminished and more even
flow secured
Now it is planned again to convoke
representatives of the seven states
through which the river flows, and
attempt to solemnly allocate the wat
ers of the river, which in the first
place have never been adjudicated as
the property of the states. Political
", the agreement that might be
reached by the seven states would
have some effect on the action of the
national congress in its development
legislation, but it would have no eff
feet on the inherent property rights
in the water. While the common law
rule on riparian rights has been abb
rogated in some western states, it has
been upheld in others. If riparian
rights adhere to the land, the state
can no more trade them off than they
CdH LtlC fdIlu UStOItSltiS W pliNoeS
owners.
AS valuable thing as the water of
the Colorado river is should not be
the plaything of politics. 1t should be
conserved and developed, but until its
title is clarified by decision of the
federal court, it must continue the
football of politicians, and an annual
economic loss.
It appears certain that the next
session of congress will pass the
Swing johnson bill, which has for its
central purpose the generation Of
power, coupled with flood control,
rather than an intention to put the
water to its highest beneficial use for
the land.
Inasmuch as this bill would permit
of water being taken to Los Angeles,
in another watershed, it appears high
ly probable that Arizona will be able
to protect its rights and privileges
through the courts.
1t is undoubtedly due to its known
legal weakness that California has
been so anxious to secure some sort
of compact between the states, CIV
mig it color of right, to certain wa
ters of the Colorado river, which in due
time would grow into prescriptive
rights.

WHEN WILL HE ACT?
lDunbar's Weekly

The grand jurys denunciation of
the inefficiency of Secretary of State
Kerby is not the first broadside
against that gentleman. A special
committee of the legislature pointed
out the same things covered by the
grand jury's report and made the
same Recommendation that the grand
jury did-namely, that the proper Of
ficials sue Kerby for a return of the
$4,000 salary it is alleged he has un-
lawfully drawn.
With both the legislature and the
grand jury demanding this, we are
wondering how much longer the at
torney generals office, whose duty it
is to protect the state and its treas
ury from just such raids upon it, will
continue to ignore these mandates.
The evidence is at hand; the law is
plain. Mr.. Kerby should be sued, and
the attorney general, in line with his
manifest duty, should file the suit
without further delay.

MORE ELECTION LAWS

Some states are holding special elections to en-
act by direct legislation, constitutional amend
ments and special laws handed over to be voted on
by the people from last winters sessions of legis
latures
AS general principle, the states have too many
election laws-some of them filling books of sew
eral hundred pages of fine type which only of
ficias read-cumbersome election machinery ex-
tending to registration of voters, direct primary
elections and complicated amendments of consti-
tutions
As a general proposition, elections to enact leg
slation by the initiative and referendum drive peo-
pie from the polls, and reduce the number who
participate in elections until in some states less
than one-half of the total vote is cast.
The very fact that fewer and fewer voters are
participating in elections ought to warn the aver
age citizen that there is too much legislation by
legislatures and attempted legislation by the peo-
plea mo- vote at direct-eection legislative ex-
perments is safe and conservative line of action

THE HUMAN SIDE
OF LIFE
Ye Ed Plays Safe
*+*+****A@++@*@@*s !

The publisher of a newspaper in a
nearby city had been recently threat
ened with libel suit by an indignant
citizen because Of an erroneous state
ment regarding him which had been
permitted to get into print. The editor
decided he had better read up on the
law Of libel, and after much study he
came to the conclusion that the wealth
er was the only subject about which
he would be safe in making positive
statements. Thereupon, he deter
mined to steer clear of legal embar-
rassment in the future. The next
morning the readers of the society
column of his paper were greeted with
strange reports of social functions, of
which the following is a specimen:
a woman giving the name Of Mrs.
j. G. Jones, who is believed to be one
of the society leaders of the city, is
said to have given what purported to
be reception at her home yesterday
afternoon.
1t is understood that a consider
able number of so-called guests, re-
ported to be ladies distinguished in
local society, We're present, and some
OF them are quoted as saying they EN-
joyed the occasion.
1t is claimed that Montagni Bros,
caterers, furnished the refreshments
said to have been served, and the Bon
Ton orchestra the alleged music.
THE hostess is said to have worn
what was alleged to be an expensive
pearl necklace, which she declared
was given to her by Mr.. j. C. Jones,
a gentleman with whom she is said to
be living, and who, it is generally be-
lieved, is her husband - -Kirksville

This seems to be anticipating a bit. No European
aeropane has as yet made just such trip and
no aeroplane as yet built could carry a load of
bombs across the Atlantic; besides no European
planes. And by the time the machines, the bombs
and the flyers are ready to start they might face
a little bombing from as many aeroplanes arising
on this side of the Atlantic.
