In his message to the Legislature
the governor recommended that
the session be limited 10 forty five
days. He thought that by in;elli-
gent effort all the necessary legis-
lation required could be accom-.
plished in that time, and great
deal OF money saved to the state.
The legislature has been in session
iorty-two days and actually moth
ing has been done, They have
devoted sixteen hours in trivial frit-
tering over unimportant matters TO
one in the interest OF good legisla
ton. This is their idea of being
true to the sixteen TO one issue.

EA.rn N SUGAR ssErs.
Herbert Myriek Thinks Colorado .
Favorable Soil.

Herbert Myrick editor Of the
Orange Judd Farmer, and former
newspaper man IN Denver, ad-
dressed the Colorado Editorial AS
sociation in tha, city Thursday
night He has great. confidence
in Colorado as beet sugar grow
ing state, and said;
MY own judgment is that under
proper culture certain sections in
Colorado will produce from twelve
TO sixteen tons OF beets per acre,
each containing from fourteen to
seventeen per cent sugar OF over
So per cent purity.
The conditions OF the Colorado
soil and climate are so regular. as
well as so peculiarly adapted to
the crop, tina, irrigation insures a
good yield regardless OF the rain
fall, and practically makes the in
dustry sure thing in Colorado.
There IS another reason why
this industry should be profitable
in Colorado, especially around
Rocky Ford. and in the Cache la
Poudre valley. The farmers in
these localities are experienced in
intensive culture, IN marked con
trast 10 the system OF agriculture
where wheat and other crops are
grown by the square mile. These
growers OF fruits and vegetables
will find little difficulty IN raising
the sugar beet and in the sub
soiling, deep plowIng and general
high culture this crop demands.
Where farmers are not used TO
that kind OF agriculture il often
takes several years for them to
master the culture OF the sugar
beet,
Given an ample supply of beets
OF proper quality, their manufac-
turc into sugar is an absolutely
sure and safe business. The vital
thing is TO get the beets. and be
cause there is so much for the
average farmer to learn in growing
beets, it behooves farmers every
where 10 plant from quarter TO
an acre OF beets this year. II not
convenient to ship the beets TO a
factory they will be worth all they
cost, II fed to live stock. while the
results in growing the crop on a
commercial scale will be OF great
value in securing sugar factories at
Colorado points a year from now. ="

Railroad combines, tratfIc asso-
Citations and pools are declared to
be necessary to preserve stability
OF rates, and to enable the rail
roads to pay interest on their bonds
and dividends on their stock, and
laws are being framed especially
to legitimize them. Organizations
of working men to maintain a living
scale OF wages are declared to be
"conspiracies" and against public
policy"
Congress recently passed the
an,i.sealping bill. Ostensibly ii IS
aimed to prevent the sale OF bogus
or forged tickets, and to protec,
the railroad in an endeavor TO give
the dear people better rates for
summer excursions, conventions,
and national assembiages.
ANY one who is at all familiar
with the ticket scalping business
in large cities knows that this is all
buncombe. Nine-tcnths OF the
tickets sold by the so-calied brokers
are purchased direct from the rail-
road companies agents and sold on
/ a commission. which is divided
with the purchaser. The other
portion OF the business is the sale
OF unused parts OF coupon tickets,
and why the railroad company
should be so anxious to preven,
Smith from travelling on ticke,
| Jones has paid for is proposition
that is very hard for the common,
ordinary, everyday individual to
grasp.
The real anImus OF the bill ap-
pears in the provision that makes
it a misdemeanor for any one not
an authorized and licensed agent
OF the railroad company 10 sell its
tickets, and forbidding any officer
.oi railroad company giving out
tickets for sale TO other than
regularly authorized and eertiti-
Gated agents. The desire is to
prevent rate cutting, and 10 compel
the companies to live up to agree
men,s made 'with,ea other. They
cannot trust each other, and they
invoke the aid OF the law to assist
in maintaining their schedule rates.

Pueblo is agitating the question

Pueblo is agitating the question
OF licensing different branches OF
business, in order to relieve real
estate and old established firms
from their present heavy burdens
of taxation. Firms and individuals
drop int6a town for few weeks
or months to dispose of job lot of
goods, and then seek fields green
and pastures new for further oper-
atoms. In this way they escape
taxation altogether, 1t is neither
Just nor right. The home mer-
chant is entitled to some protec-
ton, and the proper method is to
force people who are not paying
taxes to take out license and thus
relieve legitimate business firms.

The County levy Limit.

In the bill to limit tax ievies the
counties are divided into ten class
es. Otero county is placed in the
eighth, in which class the county
levy is limited to twelve mills
The tax levy limit affects the coun-
,y ordinary and the poor fund.
Last year the county ordin-
AIRY levy was 1919 mills and
and for the poor fund mill, to-
tai of IIE mills.
This is higher than in any pre-
vious year in the history OF the
county, and next year it will be a
great deal less. The object in
limiting the county levies is to
force the county assessors to raise
the assessed valuations SO that the
state will realize sufficient revenues
for all purposes.
Limiting the levy to twelve
mills in Otero county will have no
effect whatever in bringing about
this desired result, and it is fair to
presume that the legislature has
made bungling job OF ii in other
counties as we'll. But what more
could you expect of fusionite

Only four Otero county patients

\ few months ago there were ten
at a monthly cost to this county OF
$500. There appears to have
been a decided change in the ad-
ministratiou OF the affairs OF the
state Institution since Mr. Work
was installed as superintendent,
Notwithstanding the fact that
Senator Swink was unable to see
anything wrong with its conduct
under the deposed superintendent.
1t was claimed that the asylum
was crowded and unable to accom-
modate any more insane patients,
making it necessary for the various
counties OF the state to provide
quarters for their unfortunates at
private institutions. There ap-
pears to have been radical change
