To the Editor:
The movement to get an equitable
aud full assessnlent-an assessment &C
cordiDg to law--is beginging to bring
results.
August WAGNER. OF Henry Township,
Brown County, informs me that he has
completed the assessment for this year,
aud has listed $232, 900 as against only
1905 last year. Nj. Wagner il an
ex.county commissioner, aud has made
the assessment OF his township for ten
years. Hence, his experience. both IA
an assessor and IA member OF equaliza-
ton boards, gives great value TO his
work us a guide TO Others. His plan
was to call the attention OF property
owners to the oaths to which he must
subscribe TO assess at the true cash
value. Next he administered the oath
TO the property owner. He aimed To
show that he did not propose to perjure
himself, nor leave property owners In
doubt az to their individual RESPONSE
bility. Besides, his experience enabled
him 10 explain that a full assessment,
in itself does moi necessarily meat
greater TIA xes; and that u Iull legal
assessment must of necessity result ia "a
inirer distribution of the burdens OF
taxation than we have had in the past.
II The equalization boards will go ov-r
their work carelully-esp@cially the
township and city boards-and bring To
book every assessor who knowingly
periures himself the work will b+ started
right. Once started right, no township
heed suffer hardship M the result of "a
legal assesslaeat-unlesS tho county

rlust Patent Without Delay.

In recent decision, Binger
Hermann, commissioner of the
United States land office at Wash
ington, has ruled that a patent
filed on mineral land must be car
ried through without delay. The
person who makes the application
ON mineral land must proceed with
his case or he loses all his rights
after reasonable time has elapsed.
The custom has been to apply
for a patent on lands, and then,
in a great many cases, the person
applying has allowed the matter
to rest for years. The commits
sioner bases his ruling on section
1924 of the revised statutes. In
making the decision a case involv-
ing land in Clear Creek county
was passed upon. No work had
been done upon the land in twen-
ty-fve years, and the man who
applied for patent on it had never
secured final action on the appli-
on.-Rocky Mt. News.

There is much to learn in the
science of roadmaking on the sub

mere enumeration of these points
is sufficient to show that good roads

The Santa Fe New Mexican
takes an optimistic view of the
political future of Colorado. 1t
says that Colorado is undoubtedly
Republican state and when Re
publicans get together they will
dispose of the sort of hybrid
officials who have run the state in
to temporary bankruptcy and made
it regarded in the east as was Kan
sas before the late regeneration.
The New Mexican further declares
that Colorado people must be tired
of mismanagement and of the scorn
of the rest of the country, and this
year will be pretty apt to do as
South Dakota and Kansas have
done and come back into the Re-
publican fold with whoop. 1t is
very interesting to occasionally get
q view of Colorado politics as they
appear to the outside world.

1t requires a good deal of moral
courage in legislator who has
concern about his political future
to resist the pressure of forces

he does not consent to do their

sentiment of the community or the
approval of his own conscience
seems quite intangible by compari-

Arthur Sewall, of Maine, who
had the conspicuous misfortune to
be Bryan's running mate on the
popocratic ticket in 1896, is the
latest eminent convert to expan-
sion. Mr.. Sewall has recently re-
turned from a trip to Hawaii,
bringing beck with him views on
that question quite the contrary to
those held by his old partner in
politics. He is not equivocal nor
half-hearted in his opinions; he is
an out-and-out expansionist who
declares his views vigorously and
unmistakably. Mr., Sewall is a
practical man of large affairs, and
he understands the responsibilities
as well as the opportunities which
await this government in the Far
East. and he is convinced that they
should be met honestly, courageous
ly and in a manner befitting Amer
ican intelligence and American
ideals. The contrast between
Sewall's loyal stand and Bryan's
shrill denunciation of imperialism
is rather startling.
