We had an old friend who had

We had an old friend who had
lived here for sixteen years, trying
to raise strawberries on low spot.
He had seventeen acres of them,
and year after year followed prac-
tices which may have been OK back
in Ioway or some place, but not sat
isfactory in an irrigated country.
For one reason or another he never
had what might be called a good"
crop, and so he blamed 1t on the
weather. He kept looking, during
his entire sixteen years here for q
normal" year. Too bad the old
man isn't here this year. He would
have finally found a normal" Ken
newick year. This weather we're
now having Is just the sort Of stuff
most Of us expect when we came
here. It's certainly been perfect this
spring and summer.

Road engineers seem to think that
It will be possible to do something
with the city's streets. Maybe they
can, but we have our serious doubts
about it. The paving, such as it is,
on the city's streets was done way
back in the early days when not
much was known about binders, oil
mix and such. Most of the gravel
In the streets here is round, river
stuff which does not hold in place
when the binder gets soft. Even
the addition of the coarser aggre-
gate will not do the job in first
class shape. It may last until we can
afford real paving job. It is GER
tain that this town has gotten its
moneys worth from the present
paving, bad as it undoubtedly is.

The time will come that the work
hours are going to be divided up
among those who work whether the
work is eight hours or six hours or
four hours long. AS long as a few
people work and the rest have no.
employment those who work must
feed those who do not work else
they will starve. The logical thing
to do appears to be to divide up the
work there Is to do among those who
need the work. In this way all will
be employed and all supporting
themselves. There is nothing to be
gained in permitting a few to do
all the work and taxing them to pro-
vide funds to keep the others. Moth
ing is gained by this, but II all work.
ed then each would pay his own
way, and taxes for this purpose
would not be necessary.

The lowly tax token has served q
wonderful purpose, In addition to
the mere raising Of several million
dollars for education, blind relief
and such other funds. It has made
people increasingly tax-conscious. A
speaker at the Kiwanis club Tues
day pointed out the fact that the
average family paid $1.40 day in
taxes Of one sort or another every
day. He said that the cost over gov
eminent had increased one hum
bred percent in the past four years
and the end was far from sight yet.
He said that q four percent de-
crease In the cost Of government
would pay the entire electric light
bill for the whole United States
and yet all over the nation billions
are being spent to save q fraction
Of the bill for the utility. He said
that the tax on one package Of Gig
arettes a day and on one gallon Of
gas day would pay the average
family's bill for electricity. AS the
cost of government continues to
raise, so will the average mans ap-
probation of what he receives for
that cost undergo a change. The
little tax token is going to help in
the realization ...

The fact of the depression is evil
dence that we do not know how
to manage our affairs. It is an in
dictment of the intelligence of the
race that it did not see until it was
too late the way the world was
trending. AS long as people have
needs there should be employment.
The problem that is going to have
to be worked out is how to make
the supplying of those needs furn-
ish the means Of existence to those
who must supply them.

'By Deeds Performed
and Promises Fulfilled"

Topeka, Kas.-EXcerpts follow
from the address by Representa-
tive Bertrand II. Smell notifying
Governor All M. Landon Of his
selection as the Republican presi-
dental nominee:
"Here and now this nation turns
its back forever upon broken prom
ises and hollow oaths!"
THE spontaneous expression
of popular sentiment from coast
to coast, which eliminated in
your nomination at Cleveland,
offers eloquent testimony that
your authority is rooted in the
silent, secret hearts Of the whole
people"
1.-THE crisis which calls you to be
first among us will never yield to
the sounding shibboleths of mere
partisanship. You are saluted today
by patriots Of all partiesl"
Here In a solvent Kansas the
people found a man who worked
calmly amid all the noisy din Of
the New Deals failures and false
starts. They found man who kept
his books and the books Of his gov
eminent by simple. honest old
fashioned arithmetic q man
who stood like q rock against the
Authorizations Of those who sup
posed that they could guide Amer
lea to stability and prosperity by
shameful political squandering Of
the peoples substance. In this
choice our people are guided by
deeds performed and promises
fulfilled"
'.As you set forth upon your high
endeavor. carry in your heart the
message of this hour:
America II with you!
America viii sustain you!
America will see you through 70
victory!"

merely a round of narrow, petty,
colorless, commonplaces filled with
the trite and undressing. The

NAMING YOUR BUSINESS
REPRESENTATIVES,

NAMING YOUR BUSINESS
REPRESENTATIVES
The Washington State Taxpayers
Association has sent out the foiloW-
ing statement. It is well worth
reading by every voter as the time
for selecting legislators approaches.
The most important positions to
be filled in Washington this year
are in the legislature.
Says the Taxpayers association:
What type of men should be elect
ed to the legislature?
We have over three hundred in
corporated cities and towns, thirty
nine counties, sixteen hundred
school districts and hundreds OF
other municipal subdivisions.
What type of men would you Sc
lect to wisely legislate for this
number of governments, all Of which
must be supported from the earn
ings of those who produce?
We collect annually over forty
two million dollars in property
taxes; eighteen million dollars in oc-
cupational and sales taxes, and
other millions in fees inheritance
taxes, Insurance. taxes and excise
which must be paid directly or in
directly by those who are product
lively employed.
What type of men would you Sc
lect to frame laws to suitably dis
tribute this enormous burden?
The budget of the state govern
ment provides fourteen million dol
lars for salaries and wages; thirty
million dollars for state aid to COM
mon schools; ten million dollars for
old age pensions; ten million dol
lars for relief of the unemployed;
thirty million dollars for the loca-
ton, construction and maintenance
of highways, and other millions for
miscellaneous governmental opera
lions.
What type of men would you Sc
lect to decide on the necessity and
size of appropriations which you
will be called upon to pay?
The legislature Of the state Of
Washington legislates and appropri-
ates money for the maintenance of

custodial school for the feeble-mind-
ed, one training school for boys,
one training school for girls, one
veterans home, one soldiers home,
one penitentiary and one reforma-

What type Of men would you Sc
1ect to wisely consider the needs Of
these different divisions Of state

Legislating for and administering
the affairs Of this state for the next
two years is q real job for real men.
It is your state; it will be your
money which will foot the bills. The
legislature and the administering Of
ficers will be the ones that you Sc
1ect. Government Is the biggest bus
mess In the state. Make your Sc
1ections accordingly.
