Democrat in Time of Peace, Levy
"War Taxes" and Kcsort to Bond
Issue Tax North and West, but
Let South Kscutie Burden. .
Washington, Oct., 18 The Demo
cratic party is claiming credit for
prosperity although everybody knows
that the prosperity caused by war or
ders and big crops is not due the De
mocratic party.
How about the prosperity of Uncle
Sam? If the government itself is
prosperous under the management of
tiie Democratic party, there is nothing
more to say.
Uncle Smii is not prosperous. He Is
In a hole. His treasury has a deficit,
and his managers have piled up a
lot of expenditures at the recent ses
sion of Congress, which forced the im
position of new taxes and the issuance
of bonds. Uncle Sam must go into
debt at this time when the Demo
crats are boasting of prosperity.
Disbursements Fxceed Receipts.
The excess of disbursements over
receipts lias renclied $25,000,000
since the first of July. That is only
the beginning. Many disbursements
have been "carried over" on the
books, and will show up next year.
If the Democrats are successful in
November they need not care. If
they lose they will turn the deficit
over to the Republicans.
Spend Two ISillions a Year.
The total appropriations this year
will run over $2,000,000,000. This is
now a two-billion-dollar-a-year gov
ernment, so far as expenses go under
a Democratic administration. But it
is not a two billion-dollar-country
when it comes to raising revenue by
ordinary means, such as the customs,
duties, internal revenue, public lands,
receipts, etc. So the Democratic par
ty has imposed new and unusual and
discriminating taxes, besides provid
ing for issuing bonds to take care of
the Mexican border expenses and the
purchase of ships.
About $266,000,000 of this fiscal
year's enormous expenditures will be
on account of "national defense,"
which is supported by all parties.
Subtracting that sum, there remains
an excess of at least $250,000,000
over the appropriations pf last year
which the Democratic party could
have saved by earful and economic
legislation.
I Provide for "Deserving Democrats.
: All sorts of extravagances have
been permitted to creep into the ap
propriation bills this year. The gov
ernment service has been expanded
unblushingtly in order to give "de
serving Democrats" fat jobs. About
30,000 new offices have been created,
ranging In salaries from $900 a year
up to $12,000 a year. The depart
ments have been authorized to enter
upon new and experimental, fads
which will demand bigger appropria
tions next year unless the Republi
cans obtain control and shut oft these
foolish experiments,
j The failure of the Democratic tar
iff law to bring in sufficient revenue
Is to be met by new taxes. The in
come tax is increased and its applica
tion widened. Northern industry is
taxed and southern industry is left
untaxed. A scrutiny of the new re
venue law reveals that it is cunningly
devised all the way through to tax
northerns" and westerns and let south
erners off as lightly as possible. It
is a sectional measure as well as a
measure discriminating between In
dividuals. I Another Democratic Rond Issue.
! After having made these taxes as
high as they dared, the Democrats
framing a law were confronted with
a bill of $j5,000,000 to pay for the
administration's blunders along the
Mexican border. This sum cannot be
squeezed out in taxes without raising
a fuss, so the money will be raised
by borrowing. In this time of peace
and wonderful Democratic prosperity
.Uncle Sam is to borrow $125,000,000
I on his Panama Canal bonds to pay
;the cost of mobilizing the army and
aational guard on the border and then
demobilizing them. The King of
France marched up the hill and then
marched down again, but it is not re
corded that it cost him $125,000,000
to execute his brilliant exploit.
Prosperity! If you see a seedy
old gentleman with a goatee feeling
hopelessly in his empty pockets, and
then signing a mortgage for $125,
000,000, don't talk to him of Demo
cratic prosperity, for he may be
come profane. His name is Uncle
Sam.

NEIGHBORING CITIES
Sheriff Welch returned this week
from Greenhorn where he was call
ed on official business. He reports
the Greenhorn camp lively. The min
ing industry has picked up wonder
fully tli re this summer and fall and
a great deal of interest is being
shown in the mining properties. Ed
Reed has developed a valuable pro
perty and he is working on the 200
foot level. This mine is located on
the opposite side of the mountain
from Ben Harrison and the ore is of
the same character. Men are wanted
in that part of the county and it is
said that the milling and logging
operations in the Austin country are
several hundred men short. They
are unable to secure enough help.
Caynon City Blue Mt. Eagle.
Elmer Montague reports while he
was visiting the Willow creek school
Wednesday, John Peterson had an
encounter with a rabid coyote. Pet
erson says that he struck the animal
in the back with a grubbing hoe after
which it trotted of, but not far
far enough but what Peterson had
time to get a gun and take a shot at
it, This attracted the attention of
the school children at school and a
number of them saw the animal run
ning over the hill out of sight. Ar

Tbe caynon road to Condon was
opened to traffic Thursday, though
the new grade will not be completed
down Thirtymile creek for some
weeks yet. Part of the route now
traveled is along the creek bed and
is quite rough, but still much better
than the Devil's Backbone road.
