Tax-dodgi- 1 ng without hazards. Everybody wants government but nobody wants to pay for it. The taxpayer who does not believe, when he pays his taxes, that the money Is a total loss and might as well be thrown Into the sewer. Is rare Indeed. Everybody wants an adequate army and navy and everybody strenuously objects to helping pay for them. Robin Hood's popularity with the yeomanry and the peasantry of his ag-- "was the common belief that what he stele from the rich he gave to the poor. Being a reader of history, tho President fully understands it should be worth something to him politically to create, the Impression that he Is taking the burden of government from the comparatively Impecunious and placing It upon the wealthy. Of course, the government of tho United States Is not supposed to operate that way and. of course, proper tariff laws would remove the necessity for direct taxation.

He Is supposed only to remember that h has escaped the Income tax and to let his gratitude be a rubytltttte for thought.

Common sense would, of course, suggest tho obvious thing, but we have long ago learned that the obvious thing and red tape are so slightly acquainted ns to be almost strangers. Firstly, common sense would have seen to it that these guardsmen were physically examined before they entered a national guard organization that receives annual aid from the government with the understanding that it be subject to call to federal service.

Cotton Is high because, as tho cashier of the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank wrote In returning United States treasury funds deposited In federal reserve banks, "the action of the honorable secretary or the treasury in making the special deposit with us resulted In the cotton planters being able to hold their cotton for a muchvhlghcr price." Those who buy, instead of sell, cotton doubtless will feel less happy." They will want some things explained. They will want to know why it Is a crime to combine to raise the price of steel, and of harvesting machinery, and of cash registers, and other commodities when it Is not only not a crime to combine to raise the price of cotton but in such a laudable act that the federal government loans the cotton planters money to live on while they corner the market and squeeze the shorts. And the explanation Is that the south is in the saddle at Washington for the first time In many years. Cotton Is King, and to the deuce with anybody who would criticize the solid south where the Democratic votes come from. - SALT LAKE IN BRIEF to Meet The Progressive Women's club will give the first of a eerles of outings at Saltalr on Thursday afternoon and evening.

Ordinary genealogical work. such as copying of records, following out single, lines of ancestry, etc., does not seem to require any very special gift to enable one to become a competent genealogist. It dos not require any extraordinary mathematical skill more, at least, than to know that "two and two make four." Nor Vmn does it rennlrfi more literarv nVillitv would enable one to state facts, precisely and logically, in good plain English. It does not call for imagination, for it clips) the wings of that faculty, and, under its stern. Incisive probings, tradition is frequent- ly forced to release its hold upon man's most cherished fancies. It requires no preternatural exercise of memory, since the recording pen promptly "fixes" facts and figures, as soon ag ascertained. Still, even this ordinary kind of genealogical work tends to develop in some students an awakening and combination of faculties and mental traits, which, when brought to bear upon the higher and more complicated forms of genealogical pursuits, seems to constitute what may properly be called a real genius for genealogy i. e.. If one accepts, as the true meaning of that much abused word that fitness for a line of special work which comes from the exercise of patience and inuntiring one upon object. dustry The requirements of genealogy are: to an the truth;" second, "eye single First, a power of sharp, clear and logical statement of facts, a methoaical way of sifting, collating and arranging them, a capacity of seeing and using the deductions 'which arise from them, and, particularly, caution against a too ready reception of all sources of information; third, the true genealogist should eminently possess, both from nature and practice, the Judicial cast of mind, holding this Judgment in such perfect equipoise that it cannot be easily swayed by personal prejudices or extraneous influences; fourth, above all, the characteristic which distinguish the best genealogist Is, what has been happily described as "a relentless objectivity in the pursuit of facts." The opinions of the genealogist should be so carefully based upm facts, and so fortified py references and authorities, that his every statement should have the weight and value of a solemn affirmation. In Neither should he be dealing, in the interest of truth, with certain unpleasant facts, upon which he may chance in the course of his investigations. While it is neither wise nor necessary, persuch haps, to say all that might be said in exercases, it is generally possible, by the cise of a little tact, to avoid what might be annoying or injurious to the living. Above all, let not the genealogist expect to escape the occasional appearance, even In his own family record, of a "black sheep." They are to be found in every flock, "howe'er well tended." In this connection one is reminded of the vision which was accorded to the Apostle Peter (Acts X:ll) of "a certain vessel descending unto him, as It were a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth, wherein were all manner of d beasts," etc., and the voice which thundered in Peter's reluctant and astonished ears, "What God hath cleansed, that call not thou unclean," was an especially interesting and appropriate subject for the genealogist's contemplation. This study is that of human life, Its acts, motives, influences, interests and limitations. One has no right to rule any man out of his pedigree, or to submit him to humiliation or neglect because of his misdeeds. One has no right to consider any man "common or unclean." God created them, as He created all. He alone is their judge; one must, then, respect their entity. The true genealogist is, by no means, a selfish student. Of his accumulated stores he is ever ready to dispense to other genealogists. Nearly fifty years of experience has convinced that, in all their communications with one another, as well as in the help give In time, labor and encouragement to new beginners, they are, as a rule, magnificently generous. Their eager search for the truth of history seems to lift them above all petty Influences; and they will go further to aid others than any class of students I arn. acquainted with. Frequently they become as deeply interested in a line of research entirely foreign to their own as If it "were indeed their own. Genealogy, in Its essence, is a veritable rabies, a mild intoxication communicated from one to another; and, once taken into the blood, never eradicated. The revival of interest In American history which began with the centennial anniversary of national independence, and the marvelous multiplication of the "patriotic socelties" and "orders" which has since folloved, has given an Impetus and value to the study of genealogy which was previously lacking, and has placed it In the front rank of honorable sciences, or studies. Before that time every man who could trace his ancestry one generation beyond his father (and many who could not) was possessed of one (if not all) of thefirmly following beliefs, viz.: 1. , That in his family three brothers emigrated together from Kngland. It is perfectly wonderful what a vitality this "three brothers" story has among ordinary people.
