HAY SHIPMENTS

Including the month of May the shipments of hay from this valley have aggregated 200 cars, or upwards of 4.000 tons. About two-thirds of this was alfalfa, the balance grail hay. The average price obtained has been upwards of s9 per ton. It is estimated that fully 100 cars more will be mar keted. The farmers will thus receive about $55,000 from this crop alone. Can any other county discount the above figures.

THE ROLLINS CASE.

The opinion in the case of Rol-
Inns e. Sons vs Rio Grande county,
recently delivered at St. Paul by
a brother OF Judge Shira, who has
a national reputation for changing
his opinion on the Income tax,
has given the Prospector another
chance to get in word for the
bond holders.
The Prospector has always been
in favor Of disregarding the s.nte
constitution, and over riding the
highest law OF the state and Of
burdening the Taxpayers with a
debt absolutely prohibited by the
constitution. In the recent opin-
ion tho Prospector sees ray of
hope for its clients, the bond hold.
ers.
That opinion holds that all deh's
contracted in excess of the consti-
tutienal inhibition are null aud
void and the warrants issued there
for are invalid. What the court
decides is that in the trial of the
case the attorneys for the county
did not technically follow the strict
rules of evidence. In other words
the case comes back for n new trial
upon the merest technicaliti-s.
If the case is properly prepared
and tried before jury not select
ed by the influence of the warrant
holders, there is no reason why the
county should not succeed in max
ing good defence to this action.
Que difficulty which the county
labors under in its defence is, that
the commissioners have failed to
make out scmi-snnual statements
at their January and July sessions
and had them published and re-
corded as required by law. The
failure to do this necessitates q
large amount of work In preparing
the evidence showing the county

New Zealand permits every citi-
zen to enjoy an untaxed home
worth $500, land of that value be-
ing exempt from taxation. If ev-
cry man owned his home, he would
support his church more liberally,
and church exemption would soon
become a thing Of the past; and
purely voluntary giving is more in
accord with the spirit of Christi
anity. For years We have advo-
Gated a $1,000 home exempt from

Who ever read a Malay book? He

and pirate. We have more than
enough native Americans of his

some Americans to the Philip

IN Colorado when railroad build
