Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1901-05-30

In connection with the mach dis
cussed proposition for the govern
ment to provide storage reservoirs for
irrigation in the West, it is interest
ing to note the large proportion Of
public land yet remaining in some o.
the Western States and Territories.
In Arizona seventy six per cent of the
land belongs to the general govern
ment; of California, with all its great
private development. 6fty-eight per
cent is public land; of Montana. sew
enty-eight per ceut remains public;
in Utah eighty-nine per cent belongs
to the United States; in Wyoming
eighty-six per cent; in Idaho eighty
nine per cent and in Nevada ninety.
five per cent belongs to the Federal
government With title to all this
vast acreage yet remaining in the ger
eral government it would seem to be
the part of wisdom for that govern
ment to provide the means for its I'M
provement ard ettlement.-Silve,
Stale.

HARRISON ON HONESTY.

l have been taught that honor was
first of all things in this world that
it was the Foundation Of everything
from mans character to his tomb
stone. l have been told that, if a
man lives a strictly honest life he will
be led by unseen hands to the goal he
strives to gain, and that, even if he
should make no goal OF 1ecog milton
in his life, fate will bless him with a
happiness that is greater than all
riches. 1t seems to me that it would
be an easy thing for man to say.
81 am going to be honest" even if
he is not, and then live up to tina,
doctrine. People may doubt his SIN
cerity, at first, but the time will come
when they will see that be meant to
do all that he agreed to do, and he
will receive their absolute trust and
confidence, and his life, instead oil
being ruf1ied with abuse and disre-
spect, will be even and peac eful.

JOHMSON'S RAILROAD
. TAX FIGHT.

Upon application Of Mayor John
son, of Cleveland, Ohio, Judge Strim-
pie. OF the common pleas court, has
issued writ OF mandamus compell-
ing some eight or nine county audi
tors, now sitting IN that city as a
railroad tax assessment board, TO call
in Hallway officials to testify as to the
true value o. their property,
Mayor Johnson declares that the
railroads have thus far been assessed
at from IL TO rs per cent If their
value, while the other property in
Cleveland has been taxed at the rate
of 90 per cent or more. The Mayor
averred in his petition that the audi
tors were corruptiy Influenced By
favors to them by the railroad conl-
panies to influence their decision and
avoided the making OF true and cor
rect appraisements.
The Cleveland, I-orain and Wheel
ing was the railroad under considera-
ton by the auditors Tuesday. BEFORE
the writ was served on the auditors
they had assessed the road. although
the Mayor notified them of the court s
action, The Mayor holds, as result.
that the action of the board is illegal,
and says he will now ask for an III
junction prohibiting the clerk from
placing the assessment of the road On
record.-Knight. Waterman.
1t seems to be the general practice
of the railroad people all over the
United States to evade their taxes.
They seem to think that anything
less than 20 per cent Of their value is
about the correct thing, and in nearl,
every instance they go into the courts
and make a prolonged fight if any
attempt is made to treat them a:
other taxpayers are treated
