The Carey Way V JHEN the state of Wyoming decreed and put in force the policy of assessing real property at its} full value, and brought the several counties of the state into agreement with the policy and succeeded in establishing some sort of uniformity in values, the good citizen readily acquiesced. Higher valua- tion and low rate d many advantages over low valuation and high rate. The thing w done. There were exceptions to the rule. There were | tax dodgers—or those who attempted to dodge—or argued or fought the assessments made against their propertr—just like ‘there always will be. But! after the millions dragged out of Natrona county by the Canrrs from the sale of lands and city lots, the enhanced value of which was due to no enter- prise on the part of any of the Canrys, it was sur- prising to the county authorities to find the Canrrs, father and son and the whole family whining about the value placed upon their holdings by the assessor. The situation as it developed at the time was like this. When the city of Casper began to expand and demand arose for building lots to the east and south and especially to the south, the Canrys demanded in| est in thx any addition placed upon the market the sum of one! touche thonsand dollars for an ordinary building lot. Di- rectly “ the street was open Carey ranch land | dustry of the same kind, quality and general lay, which was | returned for taxation at from $50 to-$125 per acre! and held and some of it since sold for-$1,000 an acre. | protection for an industry of his state. The Carers tris to get away with tite valuation which they placed upon their land but a business board of commissioners cuarged with the duty of caring for the peoples’ interests, at the end of bitter controversy, brought the Carrys into camp and com- pelled them to pay taxes upon the full value of their holdings. The Carers have never since ceased to bawl about it. And so far as Natrona connty is concerned they can continue to baw! and also continue to pay taxes upon exactly the same basis as other people. Now it is a very fine thing for Bos Carer, as the covernor, to step to the front and say just how other peoples’ tux money shall be spent and what shall be contributed in tax money to uphold his spend- thrift and irresponsible administration. But it is altogether possible that the people are tired of it, and tired of the Carers and will show a very proper resentment at the primary election on August 22. Ai ee Will They Be The Leaven? ARTIN CAHILL, president, and James Morcan, 4 secretary-treasurer of District 22, United Mine Workers of America, which is the Wyoming district, are in Oleveland, Ohio, to attend a session of the national body made up of district officers» looking to the adjustment of the coal strike which has ex- isted since April 1. From, the viewpoint of those best informed, it is believed that the strike will be over and the men back to work at no distant day, with an adjust- ment that will be satisfactory to both miners and operators. If the session was composed altogether of men of the stamp of Messrs. Camm. and Moncan, we are sure a cenclusion would have been reached iong ago These men are not only personally popular with the members of their own organisation, but they are highly respected by operators and by the public. They are fair minded and reasonable in their atti- tude upon all questions affecting their organization, plain and direct in their dealings, fully informed upon the respective rights of their men and the jdeceives his constituents when he votes for protec- | activities that lo not pertain io the bu. improvement of the state's highways. “The law enforcement department also has many nd 16 active men inthe field, travelling at state expense. | Their chief activities at this time are said to be in the interests of the candidacy of Governor Caner. | “This is also true of many others who are get- ting their salaries and e: money from the con- a a tingent funds provided by the state, and which dur- ing the past four years have been increased to an unpardonable and unwarrantal extent. | “These are conditions that it is certain will not exist after Jonx W. Har is elected governor. Mr.! Hax is for a business administration, the conduct- | ing of the affairs of the state in the interest of the | taxpayers, not to satisfy the personal ambitions of) \oflice holders who desire to maintain themselves in power, using the employes of the state for their personal ends. “A vote for Jounx W. Har on August 22 will be! one step in the direction of ending such practices.” ———_o— 7 | For Local Protection | EMOCRATIC SENATORS attest the real value) of a protective tariff every time they vote for a| protective tariff on praducts of their own states, is| a point made by Senator Goovrxc, of Tdaho, in be-| half of the fundamental principle of Republicanism. | Senator Goonrxc was replying to Senator Caraway, | of Arkansas, answering a statement that a senator tion on an industry in which he has a personal} financial interest. Gooprxa said: “I want to congratulate senators on the other|. side of the chamber who have courage enough to} vote for the industries of their states, and I care not whether it be rice, peanuts, wool, long-staple cotton, graphite, or anything else. It shows to me that, after all, when it comes to the interest of their own people, they know and understand ‘that protec- tion is a blessing to their states. I understand, of course, that under the party Insh, working under a Democratic platform which declared that protec- tion is unconstitutional, as it has done for a hun- dred years, all of them cannot see their way clear to go the full length of the matter. But I say in all sincerity, and I say it to the junior senator from Alabama (Mr. Herurm), who saw a little village | spring up in his state where there was a graphite mine, who saw a schoolhouse there, with happy chil- dren, who saw a people prosperous, an. industry which had been developed by the war, because that gave it protection on account of lack of transpor- tation to bring graphite from the mines of foreign countries. As soon as the war was over, and ocean transportation became normal, he saw that little Among other things Senator every home was deserted, and if there was any wild | deserted village. “T have seen just such things as that happen in the mining camps of the west when there has been | min@ that the senator f phite min ith sympathy, ple who hi uma had an inter- heart was , it was, for peo- 1 once been happily engaged in that in-! nd were thrown out of an occupation, and oubt struggling now to keep the wolf from I never had such a feeling in regard to any other senator who had the courage to vote for are the door “I plead guilty to owning a few sheep. We would! call them a few out west; they would not be called a few down here. Sheep raising has been my life’s work, almost from boyhood. The people of Idaho knew I owned sheep when they elected e, and, as U remember it, I lead the ticket in majorities. There is no question of doubt about my people understand- | ing that I was a woolgrower, and that I would fight for that industry to the last ditch, because without it my state cannot exist. Without the live stock industry—I will include sheep and cattle— the great west cannot go on. If I have violated any law in voting for the industries of my state, T-am ready to resign, and, by the eternal gods, I will resign. ? “There are 700,000 woolgrowers in America, and I believe it is safe to say that 95 per cent of the senators on this floor own property of some kind or other that is affected by this bill. I think it is safe to say that 80 per cent of them own land upon which farm products are grown. God forbid that the day shall come when the senate and the house will be filled with men who do not own property in |their own rights.” | acts Beat Theories U bese EMERGENOY TARIFF on long staple cot- ton demonstrates the soundness of the protective principle and illustrates the benefits derived by Afnerican industry. On cotton of 1% inches and over in length the emergency tariff imposes a duty of 7 cents a pound. This applies to Pima cotton, or American-Egyptian, as it is sometimes called, because it is a deriva- tive of Egyptian long staple cotton which has been successfully introduced into the southwestern states where it has become quite an industry with bright prospects in store for it if the unrestricted complete.

The pending tariff bill continues the protective rates provided for in the emergency act. The tariff commission has recently published some interesting data concerning the growth of this rights of the operators, and in no sense given to ‘ controversy or technicality. They are quiet, modest and dignified men in their official capacity and the same may be said of them in their capacity as pri- yate citizens. Members and officers like Camm and Moraan give to the United Mine Workers of America the prestige it holds in Wyoming. So a The Carey Payroll ‘(TT IS STATED on good authority that at this time there are in the employ of the state of Wyomirg about 1,620 people. Many of these are not essential, but they all get good pay out of the taxes paid by our citizens,” says the Riverton Chronicle. “However, while for a year and three-quarters they have little to do, they make a fine reserve force to call into service during a primary election. “That many of them are busy at this time is not (disputed. The state highway department, with its long staple cotton in Egypt where the industry dates back to 1820. It is the so-called Sakellarides long staple grown in lower Egypt which has been made dutiable by the Republicans because of its competi- tion with the Pima cotton grown in the southwest, partienlarly in Arizona. Senator Asxunst, Demo- crat of that state and a free trader on most other commodities, wanted a duty as high as 15 cents and fought for it, but voted for 7 cents when he found that was the best he could get. During the past decade the requirements of the rapidly expanding tire fabric industry in the United States have caused this country to become the second largest buyer of Egyptian cotton. The number of motor vehicles ineuse in the United States has grown each year, in 1921 amounting to 10,125,000, about eight times as many as in 1913. The tire fabric industry uses half this cotton, im- |ported Egyptian and native Pima, while the sewing- |thread industry is second in its use of this cotton. force, has ma utomobiles and men eer in the interests of Governor Caner. a be to know just how many nds of the peoples’ money has been spent by yartment dv nteresting to drive] This has resitlted in the exten: s for the gas and upkeep of |cotton industry in the southwest from 375 bales in ies of the men who use them |1912 to 92,561 bales in 1921. n of the Pima The emergency tariff |has not regulted in actually increasing the price of American-Egyptian Pima cotton, although it may have stabilized the price somewhat.
