Not Political Parties.
'According to Mr. Thrift. 'ery
eounty in tHr itate, every municipal
ity in Colfax county, and every
school district in the county it un
der extravagant republican adminis
tration. Because a contparion of
the counties of the state and of all
the municipalities and school di
tricti in the county reveal the fart
that taxes for county, municipal and
school maintenance have all been ele
vatrd in about the tame degrea. We
believe that if this is the contention
of Mr. Phelpi that he is sadly tni
taken. Krer since the writer has
been a resident of Colfax county, the
majority of tbe bard of commis
sioners has been elected from demo
cratic ranks. Every city and village
council in Colfax has not, we arc
sure, been of the republican persua
sion. In fart, we do not believe that
many in the county elect councils
and tnembert of council from stale
and national parlies. We are firmly
of the opinion that members of the
school boards of the county, and also
of the rural schools, have been elect
ed more for fitness than to fill any
political scheme. In every instance
taxes to support the various causes,
city, village, and schools, have all
demanded increased taxation in about
the same ratio. oT further this opin
ion that politics have nothing to do
with the increase, we find that How
ells, which has always been the pride
of Mr. Phelps to be strongly demo
cratic, is no more economical than
any other city or school district in
Colfax county."
Taxes Will Be Lower.
Colfax county will enjoy a reduc
tion of about one-third in state, city,
school and county taxes for 1522.
according to the estimate of Mr.
Carroll, which is borne out by other
authorities. He made this statement
before a mass meeting of 50 farmers
and one business man who formed
a Taxpayers' Protective league. Most
of the wvipf (n county taaei will
ariwC front the fail that the annual
cue null levy lor the new court
hog'r ha been replaced by Usuance
of J.'O.'J-KJ in bond, llie budget
otiiuate ef the county commiion
ert thowt s reduction of only $2,0o)
from last scar. Of this ?XX) I rep
retented by the (arm bureau' vol.
untary cut in it budget. Both the
cty and the school district have a
urplus of more than JI2.IHI0, partly
through having levied more than
wa necessary, partly through a de
crease in the cost of supplies.
If any further aving$ are made
it will come a result of the or
saturation of tbe taxpaxert under
the leadership of John Kopae,
conservative farmer, Not, perhaps,
that they will be able to elect their
men to omce. tut tne mere tiireat
of doinit o may force more re
trenchment. Some of the mentbiri
of this organisation desire to a Out
j.te with the third party, but the ma
jority at present are bent on picking
out the bet candidates from all par
tie and swinging the balance of
power to them.
Saving Big Question.
Mr. Kopae admin that bemndi it
hard to explain just where the ex
tra savings are to he made. Koadsr
Well, that's pretty bard to tell
We ve got to have roads. But we
figure there is waste. School ex
penses must be cut. I -don't believe
a teacher ought to be paid less than
550 a month or more than 55.
School teachers now are paid from
JW) to ?I2S month in the country
schools. There is much talk of a
10 oer cent reduction, even in the
cities. One farmer on the edge of
the Schuyler city school district is
paying $131 school tax on 70 acres.
The average cost per pupil in the
county is ?o0, and for the towns $67.
Will Abolish Official.
But to return to the embattled
taxpayers. Although they are farm
ers, tiiey wish to abolish the office
of county agricultural agent. The
county highway commissioner also
is on their list, as a supcrf'Vous pub
lic official. Either the county as
sessor or the precinct assessors must
go. according to the plan, which
looks to providing more duties for
the county board. All told these
proposals of the taxpayers' league
might save $1 out of every $100 tak
en in for county taxes. That saving
is not too small to be noticed, and
the only question to be settled first
ii whether it would work out
economically in the long run. Most
authorities on tax collection favor
abolishing precinct . aeoii, and
they are indeed a 'handicap to an
equalized lytiem of taxation.
Business it getting better in
Schuyler, farmer are getting more

It seldom fails to relieve the tor

In the Van
. Since the days oF primitive ox-carts, men have
delivered goods to other men in all sorts and manners
of vehicles. The. modern city found the need of a con
veyance that could make short hauls and many stops
quickly and at low cost.
To meet this need, the electric truck was developed.
Propelled by rugged Exide Batteries, these trucks are
solving the transportation problem for firms of all
kinds the nation over. So, also, the electric passenger
automobile, driven by Exides, fits the exacting re
quirements of thousands of city dwellers.
In mine locomotives, factory trucks, submarines,
airplanes and railroads Exide Batteries play an im
portant part in the movement of men and merchan
dise. But the commonest use of Exides, and perhaps
of most interest to you, is in starting and lighting
gasoline automobiles.
In this field as in others, Exide was the pioneer
battery, and is standard equipment on a greater
number of automobiles built today than any other
battery.
When you put an Exide in your automobile you
have power that you can depend on and you can
depend on it lasting so long that it proves a genuine
economy.
