the world is the baby, all
dimples and joy. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby,
thin and in pain. And the

4 BAD EXAMPLE.

The Taxpayers Of ConeJos
county called mass meeting =
couple of weeks ago IN nn ou,of-
the way place aud voted 10 ignore
the revenue bill passed at the lssr
session of the Legislature and
pledged the county off ial- ,n
stand by them in making fifty
per cent levy. The action Of tins
meeting WAS not published in
either Of the Alanoea psp--rs fer
reasons which are obvious. II the
assessor is following the instruc-
tions given him 10y that mass meet
ing it is the governors duty to re-
move him from Office n, once.
The example set by Conejos
county is liable to have bad
effect upon other counties.
At mass meeting held in
Monte Vista last Saturday evening
a resolution WAS passed practically
instucting the county assessor to
assess alta 10 per cent valuation ir-
steal of full valuation as required
by the law. Th. reason urged for
such action WAS that the other
counties were dodgIng the state
tax and We ough, to do the same
in self protection.
/, should be remem bered that
state constitution fixes four mills
as the limit OF the state levy and
for many years the counties have
been assessing property on basis
of one half and one third valuation
and many have been allowed to
dodge even this valuation. The
result Is the state is bankrupt, un-
able to pay its running expenses
and has fallen some 100000 in
arrears. There Is no way to in
crease the four mill levy nor is
there power TO issue bonds to
liquidste the debt.
As a consequence new law Was
framed with great care to meet the
n ,eds OF the state, and after some
amendments it was passed. One
OF the provisions Of the new law
VAS that every assessor SHOULD u.s.
SEES all property at lis full cash
value and provided as penalty
that he should be removed il he
failed to do so and another man
appointed IN his place. The bill
provided many other means for
raising needed revenues. There
is also state board of equalization
TO look after such action AS WAS
taken in Conejcs and il their
county officials try tax dodging it
is likely to cut of the county rev.
enues aud not that Of the state.
