assessed valuation. and the expenses for
. gwen year must 30 met BY IT, revenues
OF that year. The board % equalization
submits to me legislature when Il meets
an estimate OF the states revenues for the
two succeeding years. based upon the
probable assessed valuation. and the legss-
iature makes It's appropriations for two
years upon this basis. The assessors
do their work and Ak their valaa-
tons partly ak months and partly year
and half after these estimates are made.
and IL has 50 happened that IN come years
the assessments, made SIX and eighteen
months later. have been hover than thu
estimates made by the board OF eoualsza-
ton upon which appropriations are based.
As consequence, warrants have been IS
sued IN pursuance Of regular appropriA-
tons, based upon estimates furnished ey
the board OF equalization, but In excess
of actual assessed valI,ations subsequent
ly made OF these excess warrants $4,000
were issued IN territorial days. Various
amounts were issued in subsequent years
until they amount aow 10 ss2o.0oo, or, with
interest added. to about N.i6o.eo In lsss
the matter was brought before the su-
prerne court Of Colorado on question ef
the priority OF warrants. and al these e<-
cess warrants were declared illegally
issued.
1t il difncult to understand how any ex-
act relation could have been estAols shea
between the estimates made by the ssoard
OF equalization and the valuations Suose-
QueDtly made by the assessors. There
seems no doubt that the warrants were
issued In good faith. that the STATE re-
cetved full value for them from innocent
purchasers who were without notice or
knowledge Of any objection 10 their issu-
ance, and thar the money was expended
as the appropriations provided Notwith-
standing these facts. the peopis OF Colo

In this congensal atmosphere OF state

should feel at home. and that he should
have said at the banquet given TO him at
the Palace hotel by the Denver Chamber OF

Senator Proctor Makes a Strong Plea for
Coast Defence.

Coast Defence.
Senator Proctor OF Vermont adj
dressed the Senate Yesterday in favor
of a complete AMI effective system of
coast defence ~ against the use of
the governments money in large an
nual sums 10 build up n navy which
may speedily become obsnIrta. The
Senator'S remarks gained force be-
cause Of his experience at he head of
the army as secretary of var. 10
substance, Mr.. Proctor said:
"lfHpprnpralions for naval con-
struction cease for Il f-w wears, the
navy will sink into nSiguific4nre; in
other words, the policy ofseeking ma
val supremacy commits our govern
ment, simply for the purpose of keep
ing good it's previous expenditures.
70 an OUTLAY estimated to amount
every year To the entire sum required
for the fOri ihcatiOn of our ,seacOHst
in such manner as to enable us to
defy the nAvips of the world. 1t
would be much bette to provide the
land Qualifications at n cost so many
times less than the expense of max
ing our navy anything like equal to
that of Great Britain, inasmuch as it
is universally admitted that the land
Notifications will render our coasts
impregnable Ii is also a matter at
least congratulations that whatever
money may be spent to build and
maintain coast Qualifications will be
spent in the United States, while
much money that may he appropri-
a ted for the support of the navy will
find its wav'into foreign Golfers.
The question OF coast defence is no
local question. The honor of the Nh
tion is as dear to the American citi
zen on the prarips of the West as to
one in the rush of Broadway. Nor is
the nations honor only at stake.
Any financial misfortune that bofAls
II spacOast city has its direct eff ct
on the material inl erpsts of every ill.,
land city and every inland cOn.mu-
nity. The needs of the country ap-
peal to Congress for action in this oil
rection. We can effect the purpose
more cheapIy now than hereafter.
Let us provide suitable Notifications
and render our harhors impregnable.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited

this medicine has often averted long
