Cleveland. Ohio, Sept. 30.-The Lead
er has from its Washington correspon'
dent the following interview with Sena-
tor Hanna concerning the Philippine
question. The interview is believed 10
represent the views of President Nc
kinley:
Il do not know what the instructions
given 10 our peace commissioners are,
said Senator Hanna, but so far rs
concerns the negotiations which Will be
instituted in Paris tomorrow, can
see no other result than that Spain Will
have 10 rclinquish her sovereignty over
not only I.uzon island, but the entire
Philippines archipelago.
Spain has no reason to expect TO
be able to retain any portion of the
group. She Went into the war and
lost. and now ought TO be prepared to
suffer the consequences which such Il
defeat implies. l regard the Philip
pines as lost To Spain, and that being 4
f0regone conclusion, in my opinion, the
problem which next cOnfronts us re-
lates 10 the form Of government which
we VIII give the islands.
when the Philippine question first
presented itself there was strong sen
dlltllS
and thinking men in this country
which favored the retention by the
United States of merely Il naval base
and c0aliny station in the islands this
base presumably being Manila, and the
bay contiguous thereto. Since then,
however, this sentiment apparently
has undergone II marked change. and ii,
now appears that FOR the most part
these same men who at first believed
we should occupy Manila alone are ad-
vocating the termination of Spanish
rule in the whole group.
ASIDE from the fact that the gen.
eral sentiment of the country seems To
be against returning any of the is
lands 10 Spain, the United States is un-
der obligations to the insurgents to es-
tnblish a stable and enlightened form
OF government throughout the entire
archipelago. When the war broke out
the Philippine islands insurrectionists
became in n certain sense the allies OF
the Americans, and IL, therefore, Is our
moral duty to see that In the future
| they Will be assured safe and civilized
| rule, and until the United States deter
mines in just what manner the Philip
pines ultimately shall be governed, we
| necessarily will have TO consider the
Philippines our wards"

THE STATE TAX LEVY
TO BE SANE AS LAST YEAR.
road Men Not sasisned - Governor
Adams Opposed the ksduetion.

Denver. Sept. 30.-The state tax levy
has been fixed by the Board OF
Equalization. The approximate as
sessed valuation is xlS5,OO0.OOo. The
tax revenue is estimated at $4,000.
A horizontal reduction Of 10 per cent.
ON the assessed valuation of all rail-
road property III Colorado has been
made by the State Board of EQualiza-
lion.
This action was taken nt A meeting
of the board ,ield in the office OF Gov
ernor Adams yesterday afternoon
All the members of the board We're
present. Representative OF the Sari-
GUS railroad companies were In attend
ance and presented statistical ngures
to support their claim that the Nalua-
ton of railroad property had been IN
creased. while that of all other prop
erty had been steadily lowered during
the past nve years.
The Representatives OF the railroad
companies asked for horizontal re-
duction of 20 per cent. This the mem
bers of the board would not listen TO,
but finally agreed TO a reduction o.
10 per cent.
The decision in favor Of the reduc-
ton was not 4 unanimous one.
Governor Adams opposed any change
in the railroad assessments from the
reduction to tlic last. but lie was over
ruled by the other members of the
board.
The Representatives OF the railroad
companies are not satisfied with the
decision OF the board. After the west-
ing yesterday afternoon Mr. Freeman
announced that they would light the
matter out in the courts. Their action
will be based. he said. on the ground
that the assessment upon railroad
property is in excess OF that upon
other classes Of property which Is as
sessed by county assessors.
The tax levy will be made up ns fol
lows:
General revenue 1-16 mills. agr.-
cultural college 1-J mill. school for
mutes 1-5 mill. State university 1-3
mill, School OF Mines l-5 mill. insane
asylum 1-5 mill. State Normal school
1-6 mill. stock inspection department
$50 mill. capitol building u mill. inter
est on insurrection bonds lilo mill, an
aggregate Of 1-1O mills. The poll tax
VIII be 81.
According to the approximated as
sessed valuation OF the state the tax
revenue will be about $4,000 this
year. These figures are not exact as
n few of the counties have not COM
pleted their returns.
However. in approximating the state
valuation the figures OF last year have
been used where returns are not COM
plete This places the approximated
assessed valuation of the state at $iSJ.-
OOO,OOO. This Is n decrease of $S.OOO,-
600 from that of Inst year. when the
tax revenues amounted to about SSIS2,-
600.
