Arizona Tax
Bill Reduced

PHOENIX, Aug. 20 = Arizona S
tax bill for general state and county
government purposes will be sharp
Iy reduced this year in every county
of the State, according to figures
released today from the office OF
Governor Sidney P. Osborn.
In almost every instance, the
combined state and county rate for
1912 is the lowest in the history OF
the state, Governor Osborn said.
The state tax rate, exclusive of the
Sl.O1 for schools shifted from the
counties to the state by initiative at
the last general election, is only 70
cents per $1O0 of assessed valuation,
or 10 cents per $101 under the pre-
vious low, which was 35 cents in
1897. The shift CT the school ex-
pense from county to state resulted
in a corresponding reduction in the
county rates.
For example, in Santa Cruz
County, the county rate this year
will be $1.23S8, or a combined state
and county rate of $2.4988, COM
pared with $4.3426 for 1889 and
So .686 for 1910.

Of course I have started politics

take up this political pastime in

Politics is somewhat like the
TOMATO business at that-In the
Tomato business, we try always to
get the best-We stay with one
brand as long as it gives satisfac-
tion-when that brand ceases to
give satisfaction, we switch to an
other brand-snould that brand fall

BUT we never go back to one OF
the brands that has proven unsatis-
