We must have a system of government and we must have men to administer and execute that government. All this being true, government therefore resolves itself into a business, pure and simple, and the officeholders who conduct that business are the employees of the public and nothing else. But we must- recognize that we have among us a distinct class known as politicians. They are afflicted with an itch for' office, which is really a disease. The mer should be the cenary easiest to deal with when we have made up our minds to clean this whole business up. It should be no trouble whatever to obliterate from the atmosphere the stench of the cheap professional politician. Every community is well acquainted with that species. What they is seek an easy living at the public expense. Their idea, is to sit in an office smoking cigars with their feet on-- a desk and get a salary for it out of the taxes that the rest of us pay on what we have acquired in property by endless industry and hard work. Industries and business must not only pay the bills for the services of the professional but suffer intolerable interference from that class. is - office-seek- er THOUGHTLESS' SHEEP ARE GOOD MONEY MAKERS The following figures published by coupty agriculturist at Daven- port, Wash., are inteiesting and equally applicable to many sections of the west. A local farmer near Davenport after keeping a flock of sheep for several years is thoroughly convinced of its profits from two sources. Their value in wool and mutton is easily computed in dollars and cents, but there is a great return in the destroying of weeds and as fertilizer distributors that cannot be reckoned. The farmer reporting shows an investment of $509 for 400 grade Lincoln lambs, as their foundation herd and $2100 for 11 miles of woven wire fence, including 11 iron gates. Their 1918 expenses were $283 for alfalfa hay, $85 for a hired man at lambing time, one pound of grain per head per day after Feb. 1 until marketed for the market sheep, and one pound grain hay per head per day from December 15 for the ewes. The returns from the sheep the first year were $250 for wool and $268 for lambs; second year, $600 ::rom wool and $1100 from lambs; third year, $660 from wool and $1040 rom lambs. In addition a total of 24 lambs yere killed in three years ' ' 7 TAXATION or home use. It is as easy to develop a spirit of recklessness in taxation as it is in spending money. In the latter ca3e the reckless spender pays the price of his owm- - extravagance, in the former the citizen pays the penalty of reckless extravagance. Spending tax money . is now a mania and it is time to look toward more economic taxation methods and also spending of taxes. There is entirely too much feeling that Congress can plaster on taxes and that there is nothing left to do but pay. It is easily possible to tax an industry and those dependent on it, clear out of business. Take for ex ample the extra five per cent excise tax on candy and confection ary. To the thoughtless legislator, it is a simple thing to raise a large sum by a special tax on candy mak' ers. As candy manufacturers cannot stand any such tax out of their profits, it must be added to selling ,priee or taken out of quality. If the former consumption is cut, thus adversely affecting western sugar beet growing and manufacture and reducing the amount the consumers of this country get for their money. If manufacturers try to absorb the tax by making an in ferior product at the former price the people pay in quality and the sugar industry suffers. This is a good illustration of. special or class taxation and there is altogether too much of it in this country today. It is high time to start on getting back to the true American principal of" equal taxation for all, not only in candy manufacture but other lines of industry. The candy industry is the 35th largest in the United States. It employs hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people, mostly women. It supplies a food product which is .
