In the House on the Sth instant the
special features of the day We're the
discussion on constitutional amend
ment bills, they having precedence on
the calendar.
Senate bill ! Bucklin), the Austria
lasian tax system, was supported and
opposed with spirit. The author of
the bill was present. Mr.. Lubers had
never become convinced that the sys-
TEN. as applied to this county, is wise.
In New Zealand. where its success Is
cited the revenue derived from that
source was but six or seven per cent.
of the total. That country had excise
and ether duties which could not be
used By state or county. If the sys-
TEN were adopted here the tax on land
must be increased many fold. because
no such excise and other duties could
be used to make up the necessary rev.
enue. He was not certain he would
vote against it now, but he gave notice
that unless he received more light he
would oppose it on third reading.
Mr. Mclean was opposed to the prin-
ciple and would vote against it. Mr..
Meredith said he should not discuss
the merits of the system. This bill
proposes to submit to the people the
question whether the constitution shall
be amended so that any county may
try it or not. He believed in home
rule. and even if opposed to adoption
of the system would support this bill
because it referred the question to the
people Mr.. German advocated it on
the merits of the system. Mr.. Bartels
doubted its adaptability to established
institutions. Mr.. Martin supported It.
Mr.. Medley opposed it, as it permits the
exemption of certain corporations and
combinations from taxation. Mr..
Montgomery advocated it on the broad
principle that it referred to the people
the question of choosing or rejecting.
Mr.. Riley opposed it on principle.
The bill was finally recommended
for third reading.

Il
The text Of the Sedomridge bill for

| tuition shall read: The state shall not

cies Of revenue, erect public buildings

ton, defend the state, or, in time OF
war, assist in defending the United
States: and the amount of debt con-
tracted in any one year to provide Tor
deficiencies of revenue shall not eN-
coed one-fourth of mill on each dol
lar of valuation of taxable property
within the state, and the aggregate
amount of such debt shall not at any
time exceed three-fourths of a mill on
each dollar of said valuation until the
valuation shall equal S1OO.OOO,OOO, and
thereafter such debt shall not exceed
100000. and the debt incurred in any
one year for the erection of public
buildings shall not exceed one-half
mill on each dollar of said valuation.
and the aggregate amount Of such
debt shall never at any time exceed
the sum OF $4,000 Except as provided
in section five of this article, and in
all cases the valuation in this section
mentioned shall be that of the assess
ment last preceding the creation of
said debt
Provided. that in addition to the
amount of debt that may be incurred
as above, the state may contract a

changed for the outstanding obliga-
tons of the state). AT not less than

of the state which may be outstanding

Provided, further, that said bonds
shall be payable in thirty-five years
from the date of their issue, and, at
the option of the state. at any time

mate redemption of said bonds. The
said State Board of Equalization shall
annually, for period of twenty years,
after fourteen years from the date of
their issue, levy and assess n special
tax which shall be in addition TO the
rate specified in section IL of article
n of the constitution, on all taxable
property in the state sufficient in
amount to create an annual fund equal
to five per cent. of the par value of
said bonds.
"And, provided, further, that no out

be funded which may have been here
tofore or may hereafter be declared
void by the courts of this state"

SUMMARY OF THE WORK OF
THE COLORADO LEGISLATURE

The regular biennial contest be-
tween the House and the Senate is be-
ginning TO show signs of life. 1t is
said that resolution is being framed
to be introduced in the House asking
the Senate to pass n few House bills
and get them to the governor.
Senate bill No. 2, by Mr.. Rush.
amending the constitution and permit
ting the consolidation of the city and
county of Denver, was passed in the
House by n vote of Al to Z. Eleven
members were absent or excused. 1t
is now in the hands of the governor.
George E. Ross-LewIn of the First
National Bank, Denver. testified be.
fore the bribery investigation commit
tee that he knew of no combination
among bankers to defeat section for
ty-seven of the revenue bill. No mem
Der of the House had offered 20 defeat
the section II bankers would form a
combination of enough money, The
First NaukRHal had not been solicited
for funds TO defeat 1t.
In the Senate on the 18th instant,
Senator Taylor asked unanimous con-
sent to introduce a resolution indorslng
the action of Senator Carter of Mon
tam In preventing the river and har-
Dor appropriation. After some debate
1t was refused. A message from the
governor was read stating that he had
approved and filed S. c. X. 6, regard
ing the portrait of Otto Mears being
placed in the capitol dome.

The DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer," and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should sec
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkhsm and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkhnm's address is
Lynn, Mass. q.
The Springfield herald., 1901-03-15

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother Of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899. saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation =
had headache all the time, and pain IN
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter OF all
pains and irfegularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
lating womau's peculiar monthly
troubles.

The magistrates of Moissac, France,
are engaged in investigating cases OF
voluntary multilation practiced by
band OF quacks and sharpers in the
district of Quercy on young conscripts.
BY means of a bandage these quacks
produced anchylosis of the toes, caus-
ing infirmities that necessitated the
discharge of the young men,. or at any
rate their transfer to the auxiliary
services. Each of these operations
brought the operator a fee of from
1000 to 1,500f.
