THE MISTAKE made by those
who voted to repeal the filling fee"
of three dollars in the last session
OF the Delaware Legislature, is
showing in an unpleasant way to
those who own and pay tax on real
estate. 1t is hampering the school
funds, and placing an unfair bur-
den on taxpayers. The Dover Index
editorially on the subject says:
"The last Legislature knowingly
or unknowingly abolished the fill
ing fee and thereby deprived the
schools of some 100000 of annual
revenue. The result is about to be
felt in the diminished receipts from
income taxes this year. The filing
fee was bone Of contention since
its imposition by the law of 1921.
but it was collected after a fashion
and with a few exceptions it was a
fair tax in that it was collected

All manufacturers who ship food
products into this state have been

forced off the market unless they
comply with the sections Of the
state food law that concerns the

Godfrey and Risko
Meet in Postponed
Encounter TOnight

New York, June 81 (AP) -
George Godfrey and Johnny Risko
will try to put on their much-post-
poned ten-round battle at Ebbets
field tonight.
They were to provid. the en-
tertainment at Ebbets field last
Wednesday, but rain interfered. The
bout was reset for Saturday night,
but was washed out again.
During the various post2onements
the odds have shifted from Z to 5
on Godfrey until it appears the lien
will enter the ring at about even
money. Godfrey's victory over
Pauline Uzcudun on the west coast
is matched by Risko's good show
ing in Tex Richards he svyweight
elimination tournament during the
winter.
Godfrey will have every physical
advantage over his pudgy opponent,
but Risko figures to outspeed and
outpunch the negro.

FIRST R ACES
LOSE $4,000

Expenses for the first Bismarck
horse races and rodeo exceeded re-
ceipts by $4,000. Mrs. C. X. Bryan,
manager, said today.
Mrs. Bryan estimates the receipts
from the carnival, concession rights,
and gate at about $500 while ex-
penses were approximately $500.
Construction of the buildings and
race track and the 16O-acre fair
grounds cost Mrs. Bryan between
$4,000 and $4,000, she said.
She is not discouraged over the
way the fair turned out this year,
she said, although her loss was
higher than she expected, she says.
With outside help promised her
for next year, Mrs. Bryan feels that
within two years Bismarck will have
one of the best fairs in the state.

people just what minority party
was and what it ought to be.
Apparently no responsible Demo-
Graf anywhere has echoed the
thoughtless suggestion that the
party was on its last legs. They
have all leaped quickly to hug the
consolation that the party pulled
more votes on Nov. than it ever
had before.
Some Democrats go SO far as to
hold that it is stronger after cleo
ton, despite its electoral losses in
the south. OF course the main foun-
dalton of the national party organ
ization. the Democratic state and
municipal machines which are usual
ly accustomed to electing governors,
members of Congress and mayors
either regularly or internationally,
goes on unimpaired. And Smiths
efforts to make the party liberal
progressive party have helped for
the time being, at least.
He polled the great bulk of the
100000 La Toilette voters Of 1924,
and it is quite conceivable that his
party will be able to hold most Of
this strength in the future.
The attitude of Democrats in
Congress during the next four years
will be indicative as to whether or
not the party wants to measure up
to the liberal standards Smith has
set for it.
If Hoover appoints a real Hoo
yer cabinet, he will be invincible,"
says one Of the most prominent
western Democrats, discussing 1882
possibilities. But if he appoints a
political cabinet the people are going
to lose faith in him, and we will
have a chance to run him out of the
White House. IL he ignores the
politicians of his party in distribut-
ing cabinet posts they will be power
less against him, for public senti-
ment will back him up. He used
to be such a good Democrat that
personally think he will choose his
men with the idea of giving US the
best government we ever had"
