The railroads take precedence

The railroads take, precedence
in Colorado as tax dodgers. In
Colorado the Santa Fe is assessed
At $3.50 per mile. In Missouri
the same road is assessed at SIS, 5,SS7
per mile. The, railroads bright
young attorneys declare that the
railroads pay exhorbitant taxes in
Colorado, out Of all proportion to
the amount of revepue derived
from traffic within the state. This
is very specious argument, and
may be plausible and convincing to
fusion state officials. To the ordi-
nary mortal, possessed of common
horse sense, it is plain buncombe,
pure and undefiled. A great man,
ufacturing plant or large 'whole-
sale house, doing business in every
state in the union, might for the
same reason claim certain degree
of exemption from taxation because
the business done in the state in
which it's plant was located was
out Of all proportion to the amount
of taxes paid to the state.

vested.

prospects for a large tomato crop
were never better than now.
There were a number OF acres OF
Irish potatoes planted last spring

Nat Wetzel is on hand to take
charge ofthe handling of this years
melon crop. He mas procured
quarters and connected same with

Immediately went hunting for the
electric man TO see about having
fans put in, and was much disap-
pointed to learn that the plant
only run nights and that during
the day the fans would have to be
run by some other means than
electricity. Nat always wants
things to run in an electrical man

At once had the wound treated by
a doctor, which healed at once.
On July 22d he began to feel sick
and continued to grow worse until
July 3Ist when he took very sick
and it was rumored he had hydro
phobia. A number of doctors
were called in and after consulta-
tion it was decided to be a very
severe case of indigestion. which
report was great relief to his
many friends. He is expected to
be well in few more days.
The city marshal OF this place
has lost his reputation as a marks

Last night he started out with his
Winchester loaded, with his belt
full of cartridges and blood in his
eye, in quest. OF Lion" ten
pound poodle owned by Merchant
Shaw. Arriving upon the scene
with several neighbors, an attempt
was made to surround the canine.
He was fanked both right and
left and the battle royal opened.

leg, and being charged, retreated
to the Rocky Ford ditch in disgust
where he committed suicide by
drowning himself. CANT ELoPE.

Condition of the Crops.

The weekly crop report of the W Gather
Bureau, issued Tuesday, says:
In the districts eastward of the Rocky
Mountains tie temperature conditions OF
the week ending May list, 1892 were highly
| favorable. There was, however, too much
rain in portions of the Missouri ard Red
River of the North Valleys, and destruc-
tive local storms in portions of Kansas,
Missouri and Georgia, while rain is needed
in the Central Gulf States, Ohio Valley,
Middle Atlantic States and Southern New
England. In the Rocky Mountain dis
tricts and along the Pacific coast the week
was unfavorable, owing to unseasonably
low temperatures and frequent frosts,
which were more or less destructive.
The week has been exceptionally favor
able for planting, termination and growth
of corn. Rapid progress with planting
has been made in the states of the Ohio,
Central Mississippi and Lower Missouri
valleys, and with favorable conditions
planting will begin this week in Iowa.
About half the crop has been planted in
Kentucky and West Virginia, and planting
nearly completed in Tennessee and Arkan
sas. In the Southern States corn has made
good growth, and is being cultivated; some
complaints of damage from insects are re-
ported from the Gulf States, where, how
ever, good stands are reported.
Further Improvement is generally re-
ported in the condition of winter wheat,
but, as stated in previous bulletins, much
of the crop has been winter killed, partic-
ularly over the northern portions Of Mis-
souri,, Illinois and Indiana and North
western Ohio and the southern portions of
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. \
marked improvement in winter wheat is
reported from the Ohio Valley. Tennessee
and the Middle Atlantic States. The crop
is now heading in the Southern States.

In the Southern States the oat crop has
made favorable progress, and the outlook
is generally promising, although heading
short in some sections A general in
provcment is reported from the Ohio Val
ley and Middle Atlantic States. In the
more northerly section feeding continues
under conditions favorable for rapid
termination.

Building Boom at Hyattsvillc.

special from Hyattsvilc says: 1t is
confidently expected that more houses
will be erected here this spring and sum-
mer than in any previous ear in the his
tory of the corporation. Contractors are
busily engaged in preparing plans and
estimates, and many new dwellings have
already been started. The commissioners
recently granted the owner of the Perkins
subdivision permission to extend the
watcrpipe running through that tract to
the adjoining streets, with the under
standing that these pipes will be discon-
nectcd in ten years, provided the town
installs a water works plant. 1t is init
mated that proceedings will be instituted
looking to the enjoining of the commlss-
toner's from allowing the streets to be
torn up for the introduction of these pri
vate pipes.
