Coming to Colorado.

Mr.. Thomas c. Coltman, OF
Ienkintowu, Pa, with his wife and
son, are expected TO arrive in la
Iunta on Friday morning, with a
view OF making Colorado their
future home.
When DR.. Coltman left Penn
sylvania in 1887 to take up mis-
sionary work 10 the west, he had
been a director of the public
schools for number OF years and
the people were so highly pleased
with the service OF DR.. Coltman
that they elected his son, Mr.
Thomas {. Coltman, to succeed
his father. He has held the posi-
ton OF director and treasurer OF
the school board continuously.
We publish clipping from the
lenkintown Chronicle, showing
their appreciation OF Mr.. Coltman:
"Mr. Coltman visited our school
this week. We are very sorry
that his labors with us are soon TO
end. Our loss will be gain some
where, for we know that in him
education will ever have a true
friend, and that wherever he goes
he will take an active interest in
public schools"
Last week he was given a fare
we'll supper by another organiza-
, tion of the citizens, at which COW
ers were laid for seventy guests
and many complimentary speeches
were made. We join the citizens
OF La Junta in welcoming Mr..
Coltman and family to our city,
and in the hope that Mr.. Coltman
may find improved health in our
bright sunshine and balmy air.

TAX LEVY FOR 1901.

The county commissioners, while
IN session last week, practically
decided upon the tax levy for
county purposes tor the year 1901,
although nothing can be done
officially and finally until the su-
prcme court passes upon the valid
ity OF the new revenue law. ! he
total assessed valuation OF proper
ty 10 Otero county. including the
valuation OF railroad and corpor
ate property as certified to the
county clerk by the state board OF
assessors, is S7,9IS.ooo. Las,
year the total assessed valuation
OF the county was 81, $40, 700, an
increase OF S., oSs, 800. The as
sessed valuation OF property IN
Otero county, as returned by As
SCISSOR Adsmond, was made on a
bases OF double the valuation OF
last year, while the assessed valua-
tion OF railroad and corporate
property, as returned by the state
board OF assessors. Is more than
three times as great as last year.
The fusion legislature declared
that the railroads and corporations
were not paying their Just share OF
taxes, and the intention OF the
new revenue law was to remedy
this defect, with what success re-
mains 10 be seen.
The commissioners have prac-
tically decided TO fix the tax levy
for county purposes tor 1901 at
~. mills, less than one half that
of the previous year, when a levy
OF 90 mills was made. The valua-
ton in the county is doubled, and
in the case OF railroad and corpor
ate property more than trebled,
while the tax rate is less than one
half. In consequence, individual
taxes, to be collected for the year
1901, will be considerably less
than for the year 1900. The
amount available for county pur-
poses, under this levy, will be
about S92, 900, as compared to
about $4,000 for the previous
year, and the total tax to be col
lected. tor all purposes, will prob
ably be over S2oo, 600, as compar-
ed to about Si65,oo for the pre-
vious year.
The city council of La unta
held a special meeting one day last
week for the purpose OF fixing the
tax levy for city purposes. The
assessed valuation OF La unta,
including railroad and corporate
property,is 81, 100, 900, for the year
1901, as compared to s372,5o for
the previous year. The tax levy
last year was as mills, and the
revenue derived for city purposes
was sIo.43o. The city council
fixed the tax levy for the year 1901
at 10 mills, from which revenue
of about $1,000 will. be realized,
practically the same as last year.
The city of La Junta will receive
in taxes from the Santa Fe over
ten times the amount paid in pre-
vious years. Under the opera

The Parade.

Soon after > o'clock the booming OF
cannon and the blare of bugles an
nounced that the President was "eady
to proceed to the White House and
that the time had come for the march
ing hosts TO move. Column after col
umn of the uniformed ranks swung in
to position. The band from Governor $
Island broke out in inspiring strains
and the long lines took on animation
and motion At the head rode NJ joy
General Francis V. Greene, grand MAR
shall astride superb charger, and sur
rounded by brilliant array of mount
cd aides and staff officers. Back of
them rode Major General Brooke. chief
marshal. with long line of staff offi-
GERS Heading the military division
came Major General Ludlow and an
other group of officers. The rain kept
pelting down and the great coats OF the
officers were turned up. Leading the
first brigade marched the gray coated
cadets from West Point and after
them the naval cadets from Annapolis
vieing with the West Pointers in per-
feet formation and soldierly bearing.
The President and his party went
from the room Of the Senate committee
on military affairs to carriages waiting
under the archways on the east side of
the Senate wing Both Mr.. Mckinley
and Mr. Roosevelt were kept constantly
busy acknowledging salutationS which
met them at every step, Senators Han
ma and Jones of Arkansas, and Repre-
sentative Cannon entered the carriage
with the President. The Vice President
was accompanied by Senator Spo0ner
and Representatives DalZell and Nc
Rae.
1t was go when they took their
places in the parade and the procession
started for the White House. The rain
ceased falling as the Presidential party
turned into Pennsylvania avenue at
the Peace monument.
The procession from the Capitol was
practically in the same order as the
trip from the White House except that
the contingent of Civil War veterans
who acted as the guest of honor in the
first parade were omitted in the re-
turn. The weather. which had been ex-
ceedingly bad for about two hours, i'm
proved slightly soon after the parade
started, but rain driZZled intermitting-

On the Reviewing Stand,

The enthusiasm which had greeted
the President and Vice President along
the entire length of the avenue
on their return from the Cap
itol to take their place on the
reviewing stand reached climax
when the carriages, preceded by Troop
A of Cleveland. were seen turning into
the court of honor from 18th street. At
that moment the thousands seated in
the stands stretching from 18th to 18th
streets rose in their places and midst
wildnesS of fiuttering handkerchiefs
and waving hats. cheered again and
again.
The inaugural committee escorted
the President and Vice President to the
reviewing stand at the entrance to the
executive avenue, between the White
House and the state. war and navy
building. The stand was exceptionally
beautiful 1t was inclosed in plate
glass as a precaution against stormy
weather and projected some distance
beyond the line of the others.
Mrs Mckinley was very tired when
she returned from the Capitol and re-
tired to her room. She did not witness
the parade. Her guests, however, We're
in the stand. as well as many high of
ficials of the government, the mem
bers of the diplomatic corps and their
ladies, and large number of distin-

1t was after 3 o'clock when the re-
view began The President stood at
the front of the stand with Vice Presi-
dent Roosevelt at his left and a little
to the rear. The West Point Cadets
were near the head of the line. preced-
ed by their own superb military band;
they were followed by the cadets from
the United States Naval Academy,
marching to the music of the famous
Marine Band. Both were given an en-
thusiastic reception. The President
and Vice President seemed to share in
the enthusiasm and both lifted their
hats repeatedly The Porto Ricans
came in for a good share of the hand
clapping, as did the blue jackets from
