THE QUESTION OF TAXATION IN
COLORADO.

Colorado has now taken long
stride towards the introduction il
that state of a sound fiscal system
which would likewise be the basi.
for a sound social system. The
lower house Of the state Legislature
has passed the Bucklin tax amend
ment to the constitution. 1t haC
already been passed by the senate
The history of this amendment we
told at page 729 three weeks ago
1t authorizes any county in the
state, at any general election, not
Oftener than once in four years, on
petition of 100 resident taxpayers,
to vote on the question of exempt
ing personal property and landed
improvements from local taxation,
and of deriving all local revenue
from land values irrespective of i'm
prOvetnents. This system of local
option has been introduced in New
Zealand and some other parts of
Australasia. 1t was recommended
by the Bucklin tax commission
after Senator Bucklin, chairman of
the commission, had personally
visited Australasia and investigated
it's application and effects. As the
constitution of Colorado requires
the taxation Of all kinds of property,
the recommendation Of the commits
sion could not be adopted without a
constitutional amendment, and that
is the course the matter has taken.
The amendment was adopted by the
senate on the Goth of February by
a vote of 26 to 6, and by the house
on the 18th of the present month
by a vote Of so to IL, being more
in each house than the requisite
thirds. 1t now goes to the gov
ernor for his signature, which it is
certain to obtain, since he recon-
mended its adoption in his inaugural
After that it must be
voted upon by the people, only a
simple majority of those voting
being required to ratify. This necs-
states campaign over the state of
Colorado, which in itself will be
we'll worth while. For it's educa-
;ional effect with reference to the
principles and methods of taxation,
md to the profound influence that
;axing methods have upon industrial
md social adjustments, and for that
Effect alone, the campaign will serve
great purpose.
But there is reason to believe that
he Bucklin amendment will receive
he necessary popular endorsement.
Should that prove to be the case
Colorado will have opened the way
or reform which, while it posses
les none of the elements of an emo
iOnal and sensational movement, is
n the truest sense radical and alto
.ether sane.-Me Public.

wise it will continue indefinitely. y
! Briefly this is the substance OF
what Samuel Pearson, the Boel
General, said yesterday when asked
about the recent peace offering
which had been rejected by Gen.
Botha. He said there would be no
cessation of hostilities. The Beers
are foxy people. They know ex-
actly the predicament Of the English
forces. and have managed to keep
the enemy in the dark so far as
their movements are concerned,
and this has been accomplished
without great effort.
"No compromise proposition will
ever be accepted he said. "We
cannot lose the fight. England is
wrong, and the world knows it.
England will be whipped ont finally.
The wrong cannot endure perman
emily, and the Beers know that they
will finally leave the battlefield with
honor and with liberty. l knew
what Botha would do. Everybody
knew it. | have just received a
letter from a friend of mine in New
York who is strongly pro-Boerish
in sympathy, and he congratulated
me on an outline of the situation
and on certain predictions which l
had made. You see, l know just
exactly how our men are situated.
"We have some peculiar methods
of fighting. The English never
know exactly what to do. When
ever the Beers get tired and foot
sore, and stock begins to give out,
they slip back into the mountains
to take a rest. They always scatter,
and in this way cover vast area.
There will not be more than 100 or
$50 in one place, and the English
are not in a position to make a sue
cessful attack. They do not know
where to begin. After the men and
horses get a good rest they are again
quietly concentrated at given time
and place, and are we'll equipped
for fighting"
Continuing he said there was alb
no chance for the Beers to
accept any peace offering, which
was incompatible with the principle
they had been fighting for. Peace
which had in view the
surrender of the government prin-
ciples upon which the South African
republics rest were futile and would
never be accepted. They could not
be accepted with honor. Blood had
been lost in an effort to preserve
them, and no patriotic Boer citizen
would think Of abandoning the fight
as long as he was able to shoulder

said, "if the United States would

1t has been well said that the
playground is a little republic in
which every rightful leader comes
into possession of his own. The
leader in the class room is not al
ways the leader on the playground,
and The probabilities are, that of
the two the leader on the play
ground rather than the other will
be the man of affairs later in life.
The struggle for the mastery, the
contest of wills when free to act, de-
velop the inherent qualities of lead
ership.
The possibilities for both good
and evil on the playground are so
great that it should not be over
looked but utilized in every strong
scheme of education.
That it may be used, it must be
supervised-not to dictate games
or to meddle in plays, but to repress
bullying, profanity and obscenity
and by suggestion lead to the more
beneficial plays. The children like
their teacher best when he is their
friend-not policeman and as a
friend his influence is far.reaching
and permanent.
DIVIDE THE PLAYGROUND.
Big boys and little boys, big
girls and little girls rarely choose
to play the same games at any given
time. So, then. that each group
may have its play undisturbed the
playground should be divided into
sections where it can be done, each
section being assigned to some one
group. Then the little ones are
not hurt in the rougher play of the
large ones.
HARMFUL PLAYS.
All games of chance based upon
getting something for nothing-the
fundamental principle in gambling
should be strictly prohibited. 1t
is farce and the subject of just
criticism for instructors to teach
children to be honest and upright
and then permit them to 60 just
outside the school-room walls and
learn to gamble by playing "keeps"
with marbles, "shooting craps, "
matching pennies, dropping mar
BILE through slot into box, etc.
Such practice is wrong and all
such games should be strictly pro-
.hibited. While no playing cards
should be permitted on the grounds
in any kind of a game, yet the boy
who stakes marbles on the issue in
a game of marbles can elsewhere,
with equal propriety stake pennies
on game of cards and often does.
Every boy should be taught that
he should work for the good things
Of life that he gets and that getting
something for nothing at somebody
else's expense is dishonorable. The
fever for gambling grows with the
greatest rapidity and soon makes
slaves Of those who give mp to its
terrible fascination.
While these things can be and
aredone elsewhere, the public school
should set its ban upon them as
unworthy of an upright boy or
girl.
CIGARETTE SMOKING.
In line with this is the stamping
out of the cigarette smoking upon
the grounds or on the streets ap-
preaching the grounds. Boys COM
ing to or going from school should
not be permitted to make other
children breathe the foul odor of a
burning cigarette.

is no longer fit to be associated
with children of clean habits and
life. Sometimes teachers form
antl-clgarette leagues in their rooms
with marked success in holding the
evil nnder control. This is like
the gambling evil in that it is in
direct opposition to the teachings
of the school. knowledge that
does not end in conduct is OF little
worth in character formation. ''Con
duct is three fonrths of life. y
PROFANITY AND OBSCENTrY.
Both profanity and obscenlty are
ungentlemanly and no boy should
be permitted to let such expressions
escape him either in play or anger.
1t is better if he can be persuaded
not to think them even.
FIGHTING.
Another evil under the sun is
the melting of little fellows to fight
by the larger boys who look on
much as they would at cock fight
or dog fight. They use every in
centive they can think of and push
the little combatants agaisnt each
other. The big boys need the
"tanning"-not the little ones
for they could have stopped the
whole business at any time. 1t is
the savage in the boy that delights
in such scenes.
But how about the boy who is timid
and wont fight though he is "picked
on" by large and small? Should
his teacher tell him to fight back9
Yes, emphatically yes. The writer
has known of many a boy who
when so advised, has completely
routed his assailants with fist or
stick or stone-anything handy
and was ever after left alone. 1t
rarely makes bully of him. If
the timid boy could be induced
to "take care of himself" a few
times, his future peace and that of
his parents and teacher would be
assured.
THE CODE OF HONOR.
There is sort of secret fellow
ship among boys whereby they help
one another ont of scrapes. Let
a name be carved on school property
or a window pane broken or any
other misdemeanor committed and
knows anything about it.
The ignorance is positively dense
and it is only by playing both
detective and lawyer that the teach
er can sometimes find out. Will
not a pupil who conceals the wrong
doing of school mate, conceal, in
later years, the wrong doing Of
or a friendi Is it not
like the evils mentioned above,
fundamentally opposed to good
citizenship and so far as pupils are
under its sway are they not being
trained into sympathy with law
breakers rather than law abidersi
Tattling should not be encouraged
in the least. There will always be
too much of that, but this fellowship
born of common aims and sympa-
thies may be used to promote a
sentiment for manly and womanly
by the pupils. 1t is the
principle of "pspil government" !"

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat Of an almost end.
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for short time, but cannot remove per-
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfguring pimples.
