THAT AoRTGAeB BusINEss.-We
are glad to see that the well posted
and clsAr-headed Attorney General
OF this State, Archie Williams, gives
It a. his opinion, in answer to in
quiry from the Auditor OF State,
that the law which was passed by
the Last Legislature exempting mort
gages from taxation is unconstitu-
tional. We believe The News was
the frat TO raise the question of Its
constitutionality, and We are glad
to have such able backing. The
passage Of the law was one OF the
most outrageous frauds ever sought
to be palmed on on . people, and
We are glad to zee that In many
quarters OF the State the assessors
will pay no attention to It. We be-
lieve our county commissioners
would be doing the correct thing II
they were to instruct the assessors
In their york this spring to pay no
attention whatever to this bogus
law. This action on the part Of the
eflcers ought to be general. This
class legislation In favor Of capital
should be ''nipped In the bud, mat
such swindleS may not be repeated
in the future. The object of the
law, a. urged by its friends in the
Legislature, was to bring money In
to the country. Its real effect win
be, II enforced, TO create bankrupt
cy. We had better 60 10 work to
produce something to bring money
into the country, In place Of in-
creasing our indebtedness, and
bringing ultimate ruin. The fAeiI-

EDITOR NEWS: Please allow me
. Woman's privilege of the last
word. Two weeks ago took oc-
easion to point out some glsring
errors in the annual report Of the
e. L. A. as read by the secretary at
the annual meeting, and pubiished
in the city papers. Ny critlcism
seems to have stirred up the LEARN
ed secretary considerably; inso-
much that he rushes into 3 column
and 9 quarter of fne print to no
purpose whatever, 90 far as amy crit
icism Of his figures is concerned.
He now says that tsthe report no.

In my ignorance I had supposed
that the annual report or the finan-
ciai condition OF q corporation
should give these items. BE now

changed several items Of his report,
in order to make the account bal.

much. He FIRST states that the

says there was received from 'isale

bership tickets) $126.5O and no men-
ton made OF dnes at all. In order to
explain the error Of $lOS.9O in the
report, he now brings in $95 40 re-.
ceived from lecture committee, and
adds So. 90 to receipts from member
ships. Still finding that his account
will not balance within . dollar, SO
he subtraets q dollar from the pro-
ceeds Of the last entertainment, and
triumphsntly exclaims, "How does

ITEMS PROM BARBOUR COUNTY.

The rush for land around the
town IL increasing every day.
There are hundreds OF acres Of
wild plum trees here, and wild
grapes grow In the richest profu.

Corn grown upon the sod on the
river bottom, in this county, yield.
ed, last year, forty bushels to the
acre.
Barbour county offers all the ad.
vantages that Colorado offers to
wool growers, besides being much
nearer TO market.
Settlers are beginning to come il
to Barbour at q rapid rate. Hun
dreds Of claims have been taken In
the last two WEEKS.
There are plenty OF claims not faI
from the town, with water and tim.
Der on them, but those who would
get them must come some.
Elm creek valley is about twenty
miles in length, and from one to
two miles wide. Soil about the
same as that of the river valley.
A post Office has been located at
Medicine Lodge, q mail route estab-
lisheds and Q stage will run from
Hutchinson to this town in q few
days.
The water power on Elm creek,
which hows through the town of
Medicine Lodge, will be improved
the present summer, and a gIist mill
built.
Many men who want to engage
in the sheep business, are coming
to Barbour county. This business
will pay the best Of any branch of
agriculture In the State.
The new town of Medicine Lodge
Is building mp rapidly. There are q
number Of buildings going up that

In the year 1850, says that Medicine
Lodge river, Elm creek, the Mem
nescah and Cow creek, which run
throuh the town of Hutchinson, were
the only streams in which there was
water. The Arkansas river was dry
among others.
II four ffths Of the claims OF
Barbour county were taken and each
occupied by four inhabitants it
would give county population of.
ten thousand and forty. So much

tors land. The county win have
