Tuesday there was an accident to a
freight train 10 one OF the tunnels on
the Arizona s. New Mexico road, and
several cars were Off the track. The
tunnel was 0 wide enough to build
a shoofy track around the wreck, aud
so trafic was interrupted. The old
narrow guage road had gone around
the mountain pierced by This tunnel,
aud its bed made a good road to trans.
fer passengers and express. The pas
senger tain was on this side Of the
wreck, and everything was transferred
Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday
morning. When the train went to
Clifton that afternoon it was able TO
get through.

TEXT OF THE AUSTRALASIAN
LAND TAX AMENDMENT I

that b now worthless. To build this
canal all the people Of the state win be
taxed hundreds Of thousands Of dol
lars and the general government will
also be called upon to assist. The en-
terprise seems laudable enough. In
view Of the fact that thousands Of poor
people are now seeking homes, but the
extremely poor man cannot expect to
be benefited from that source, for al
present the land will not return any
thing for labor expended on 1t and no
poor man can waste part Of five years
in order to homestead; SO, much OF It
will be entered by poor men hired by
rich men, and as no one but the COM
missioners will know just which way
the canal VIII be led they will have the
inside track to the best of 1t, and the
railroad companies will secure the
most valuable land by getting the
t0wnsites, and the poor man, as usual,
will be the man to fot the bili-to
build the canal and the rich man will
reap the harvest. ENC.
1t must be 30 plain that ''he who
runs may read" that under our general
property tax, in this case we are build
Ing gigantic special privilege, and
what may be said Of this illustration
may properly be said OF all public Inn
provements. such as school houses and
courts Of Justice, and police protection.
but the idea underlying the Australia
sian system, which Is now satisfactor-
lily In operation in several countries of
Australasia is this: 1t must be plain
that In case Of the canal cited above
that 1t is the government, pure and
simple. that will make this desert sud
denly become worth 500 per acre.
Now II the government made the value
Of that land, why should not the users
Of that land pay the government for
the value the government conferred
upon it, or in other words, IL the canal
made the value of the land, why
should not those who wish to use the
land pay for the canal? Under our
general property tax this cannot be
done, but with the above amendment
ratified any county or town may OF
may not apply the Australasian system
under which, IL rich corporation de-
sires to monopolize the land 1t would
be no injustice to the community; any
monopoly may own all the land 1t
chooses provided it pays taxes in pro-
portion to the benefits conferred by
government. but 1t is needless to say
there would be no object In monopoliz-
ing land under this system, and II
poor man wishes to use the land 1t
would fall equally just with him for
he would simply be paying for value
received, the same as water rent, and
all that he produced over and above
what value the government made for
him would be his-not even his crops
or improvements or his labor in any
way would be taxed.

Chicago, Oct. 22.-The most daring
and ingenious robbery of a pub
lie institution ever perpetrated in Chi
cago was successfully accomplished at
some time between Saturday night and
yesterday morning, when postage
stamps to the value Of $74,61O We're
abstracted from the stamp vault Of
the Chicago postoffice by operators
who bored q passage through a steel
floor In order to reach their plunder.
If they had calculated their distance
six feet to the west from the point
where they worked, they undoubtedly
would have carried OF nearly $40, 900
in cash and $1,000 in stamps.
The burglars plan Of operations was
almost identical with that followed by
the robbery of the vault of the Selby
Smelling Company near San Francisco
several months ago.
The burglars secured entrance un.
der the building and by digging
trenches and tunneling through cross
