GOLD THE TREASURY.

1t Is always pleasant to read Of full
Treasury. Indeed, people love to read,
yet, OF that tabled King who could
turn things into gold by touch. And
many OF us have unused in sort Of awe
on the marvellous achievements OF a
Fortunatus purse. Such luck is not for
'sthe general, as Shakes oeare would
say. But our Uncle Sam, just now, has
plenty OF money. Let us be glad OF
that, for he has many bills to pay, and
many OF them cannot be put Off A tel
egraphed interview with the United
States Treasurer, held the other day,
reveals this state Of things:
s'The gross gold in the Treasury, to-
day., said Mr.. Ellis H. Roberts, U. s..
Treasurer, lis $3.50, 100, 005, breaking
all records. At the of March, 1899,
the treasury held 1923, 293, 9Ol, which
was the largest sum accumulated du-
ring any administrators in recent years
until within the last two or three years.
This immense gold holdings is due,
of course, to the great prosperity Of the
country, to the increased production OF
gold In all directions. and in large part
to the effect that the United States is
now the creditor nation OF the world. y
Mr.. Roberts thought that for the
present, at least. there would continue
to be an increase in the treasury hold
ings OF gold, but 1t might be reduced
somewhat should the reduction Of the
war revenue taxes be so heavy as to

OUR STATE.

Mr.. All Daten has an interesting ar
ticle in the Tribune ON the present and
future of Nevada. We quote that
portion of the article relating to cattle
culture and State taxation. We are
not able to verify Mr.. Daten's figures
Just now, but suppose they are correct:
CATTLE CULTURE.
"During the past year beef cattle
have continued to command an active
market at good prices, and ranchers
have prospered accordingly, yet the
great cattle ranges, principally In
Elko, White Pine, Lincoln, Nye and
Churchill counties are not sold short
or depopulated by any means, but have
held their own. Owing to the unusu-
ally small amount of snow and rain
last winter, the grazing and water on
the ranges was somew hat short, yet
sufficient so that cattle did not suffer,
aud the good storms of the present
winter thus far insure good cattle
prosperity for the coming season.
Horses are in special demand for
military purposes in the wars abroad,
and purchasing agents are around Sc
curing what they can at good prices.
A year or two ago wild horses ON the
great cattle ranges of the eastern and
southern counties were legitimately
i 1t fal
and we're freely killed by hunters for
their hides and tallow, but not so now.
It pays better to lasso, break and sell
them to the war agents.
NEVADA STATE TAXATION.
The increase or decrease of taxable
property from year to year Indicates
to a comparative degree the prosperity
prevalent in the various counties and
the State at large. Thus the total
amounts paid into the State treasury
for the past three years stand recorded
as follows: 1898, 1912, 405. "a; 1899, 1926,
654. 81; 1900, s24l, S45. SO. To this last
roofing the county contri buttons were:
Churchill, 1924 3S; Douglas, $685. Al;
Elko, $50, $50 10; Esmeralda, S6653.5S;
Eureka, sl5, PA 81; Humboldt, $37, 25O.-
%; Lander, sl2. 1854 IA; Lincoln, S4343.-
~; Lyon, sl1, 695.53; Nye, 33.4O;
Ormsby, 81, 1921; Story, sl2, 39O.S2;
Washoe, $52. 75l.O5; White Pine,
1878. go; total, $24l, 845, 80.
1t will be noted that Elko is in the
lead of prosperity, well followed by
Washoe and Humboldt. Washoe con
tributes over $4,000 more than she did
three years ago, and at her present
rate of progress she may take the lead
OF the list year hence.
The entire valuation to taxable prop
erty In this State foots up to only about
$25, 600. 600, which is decidedly and det-
wrong and the worst public
policy in the world. 1t should be
squarely assessed at it's true CONNER
cial value, four times the amount
s100 900, 900. The average tax rate OF
S2. 80 might then be lowered three
fourths, or to about 81 on the 800.
Other Western States labor under the
same Objectionable impeachment and
false basis, outside capital being de
TERED and frightened away from mi
ming or commercial investments
through the high rate of taxation. All
property should be assessed up to it,
iull, honest value. and the tax ratt
lowered accordingly. This proposition
will be brought up for sensible action
md adiustifie zion before the coming
&, gislature which meets on the third
Monday in January.

THE cUDAHY ABDUCTION.

The kidnappi ng Of young Cudahy

napper, who appears to have been one

be caught. Telegram from Omaha
says:
IA specific reward of 3d. 600 is now
offered for the arrest of Pat Grove and
nothing is said in the offer about con-
viction. The police today prepared
and are sending out 5000 circulars
bearing a picture and minute descript-
ion OF Grove. They will be sent
broadcast and will also bear the de-
scription Of two other men and a
woman supposed to be connected with
the Cudahy abduction.
The offer Is made Internationally,
the arrest and delivery to the authori.
ties being the only requisite for secur-
ing the reward. This will allow ne
excuse for anyone for refusing to turn
him over on the score that he cannot
be convicted and the police expect this
will greatly assist 10 securing his
arrest.
The offer has the Endorsement oi

US for the suggestion. According to
the Nursery, matrons OF infant asylums
say that a young infant will be cross all
day II dressed in a gray frock, but
contented and happy all day If dressed
in bright red frock. Children from
two to four are much less affected by
the color of their dress. 1t is common
ly observed in kindergartens that the
younger children prefer the red play

By all means let us have red frocks,

happy. Why should not the wishes of
infants be respected as well as the fan
