THE TAX QUESTION

The Reno Gazette thus tersely sizes
up the tax question in Nevada:
The tax question is one Of great i'm
portance in Nevada, as the first thing
An intended settler asks is: "What
is your tax rate?" The answer us
ually shuts cut anybody who might
have been coming TO Ne> ada to take
up land and make home, and as for
any corsidersb Bile investment of CAPT
tai in manufactures, that is without
the range of possibility SO long as
taxes are so high. or course, we in
Nevada know that the low valuation
placed on property brings the amount
paid in taxes within reasonable
bounds, but those outside do not un-
derstand that. A high valuation and
u low rate would bring in the saine
amount for the support Of the govern
ment, and it would not scare away
home seekers. The Gazette this
morning heard ,.o,.
Tween two we'll informed men, passen-
gers on a westbound train. why,
said they, Nevada cannot expect to
attract capital OF settlers with tax
tate Of three to four dollars per hun-
dred." No one was present to inior n
these gentlemen that tax rate OF
four dollars on fifty dollar valuatien
vas NO higher than rate of two dol
lars on a hundred dollar valuation
They judged by the rate, and so dc
all outsiders. Something must b
done to change this foolish policy o
assessing property at one-fsurth it
market value, if the State is ever t,
coltain more than corporal
guard.
The above is the whole situation
in a putshell.
For years past the question ha
been agitated by the newspapers blu
the Legislature is as a rule wrap
ped up in the struggles and jobberie
incidental to a Senatorial election thu
the States needs are forgotten.
There is no Senatorial election thi
year, and let us hope that men nj a
he sent to Carson pledged to the mos
important now before the people, tt
tax question. Unless the matter
speedily recti6ed there will be vel
little left in the State to tax.
A bill compelling a full cash valu
assessment on everything would Sc
tie the whole matter and Nevada
prosperity would date from its pa
sage.

The San Francisco Board Of Super
visors have passed an ordinance pro-
hibiting the maintenance of side en-
frances in connection with saloons.
The side entrances were adopted some
years ago as graceful tribute to the
fair sex, who when thirsty did not
care to mingle with the males at a
public bar. 1t would seem that hard
ly year rolls by that some cherished
privilege of the ladies of San Fran
cisco is not curtailed.
The Legislature knocked out the
contract marriage which was for so
long a favored method of maintenance
with the fair sex, then the high thea

BICYCLER AARONSON DEAD.
The Injuries Received in Six-Day Race
 Prove Fatal.

1fONe I ulal.
 From the effects of injuries sus- tained in the recent six day bicycle race at Madison Square Garden, Oscar Aaronson, one of the competitors Ill the event, died at the New York hos pital Saturday night. The accident responsible for the death of the Swedish rider occurred on the evening of the third day of the race. Sinar, q French cyclist, i'll relieving his rid ing partner, GougOltZ, miscalculatcd the distance between himself and the remainder of the field Realizing his error, he quickly tried to rectify it, but his wheel sWerved in the attempt and several other riders at racing speed crashed into him.
 Gougoltz and AaronSon fell together. GougoltZ, who escaped with . shaking up, soon remountGd. AaronSOn was less fortunate. In falling he struck his head on the hard board track and lay there helpless. When lifted off the track he was scarcely able to stand. He was bleeding freely from the head and complained of severe pains in his body. A physician said Aaronson was suffering from a lacer- ated forehead. abrasion of the face.

 He ordered Aaronson conveyed to the New York hospital Heroic efforts were made by the hospital physicians there to save AaronSonS life. Up to Saturday it looked as if they would be successful. Then the Swedish cyclist 1 began to fail rapidly and died at , o'clock.
 Oscar AarOnson was born in Swed- en twenty-five years ago and came to this country in the nineties. By trade he was a bricklayer, and he first took | part in cycle competitions in Chicago in 1897. He came east in 1S9S and rode in the siXday race in the Garden in December of that year, bieng one | of the minor prize winners.
 In the following January he rode in a siX-day race in San Francisco, in which he took second prize. In the i six-day team race in the Garden last year he started with Oscar Julius as a partner. and after the latter had re- tired continued alone for the individual mileage prizes, taking second to Rob ert WalthOur.
 In 1S9S99 he served as a pacemak CT for Edouard Taylore of Paris, and Jimmie Michael at various times. He paced 'Najor'' Taylor when the latter beat Michael ill mile match race.
