An Unjust Charge.

A morning paper publishes an
item which ref cts on the hack in
spector and his assistants in very
unjust manner. Ia the first place
Hack Inspector Macy was not near
the scene where the occurrence hap.
pened. A horse attached to hack
baked and fell down. Officer
Fereira,. whose reputation as a
stopper" OF run aways has been
we'll established rushed to the
rescue, placed mia foot on the neck
of the falling animal and grabbed
the nostrils, whils by stauders un-
hitched the horse. When the
vehicle had become detached the
horse would not stand up, and the
officer, pushing the driver, who
wanted to steifere, lifted the horse
to its feet and by that process the
head stall got off and the horse ran.
The action Of the officer was per-
lectly proper and he deserved credit
for the cool manner in which be
dealt with the unruly animal and
thereby having his clothes spoilt in
the mud. The charge that the off.
Ger struck tthe driver is without
foundation as many eye witnesses
can testify to.

THE LEPER sErrLEMEN

We have read with a great deal
OF interest the views of Mr.. W. o.
Smith in regard to the manage
ment OF the Leper Settlement and
we present the .aid views as pub
lished in this mornings paper where
Mr.. Smith is reported as saying:
"Conditions at the settlement are
peculiar" he says. "The physical
conditions Of the people are ab-
normal. There are very few there
who are in physical condition to un-
dertake the responsibility OF govern
ing the community. In some cases
mental conditions are somewhat
defective also.
"P.opls there would not be
inclined to regard the authority Of
any OF their own number with the
same respect that they would give
to officers from without or who
were not sfflicted with the disease.
In the past there have been many
local differences among the people,
some of which were OF petty ma.
ture, others more serious. The
feelings aroused by differences aris
ing out of conflicting religious views
have at times required the interven-
tion OF the authority Of the Board
of Health.
81 should very much fear that
placing the authority Of govern
ment in their own hands would be
disastrous. / am confident that it
would not tend to promote harm
ony. To place in the hands of the
sick at the settlement the disposi-
tion OF the appropriations and dis.
pensing sums aRgregating about
100000 year would certainly not
seem to be wise.
Purchasing and contracting for
the large and varied supplies re-
quired by that community should
not be left to the sick at the settle
ment, who would not have opportu.
nifty to examine the supplies or meet
the dealers or contractors.
II do not know enongh OF the de.
tails OF the plan suggested by DR..
Raymond for the appointment OF a
com mission OF the residents at the
settlement to form an opinion as to
the wisdom OF the suggestion. The
importance OF avoiding the danger
Of conflict OF authority must not be
overlooked.
II am much in favor OF the plan
OF having q superintendent residing
in Honolulu, with an assist ant su.
perintendent living at tho settle
ment. the superintendent to spend
q portion of each month there and
returning to report fully to the
Board Of Health; also that the
Board visit the settlement twice
each year, making Investigations,
listening tn complaints and sugges-
tions from The residents aud
examining all patients who are be-
lieved to have recovered. Some do
recover, and it is always possible
that mistakes have been mads.
"As with tuberculosis of the lungs,
it sometimes happens that the dis
ease is arrested and the patient
healed.

THE TAX QUESTION.

The Silver State has the following
The Carson Appeal (Sam Dsvis. ed
itor) is having difficult time trying |
to keep on both sides Of the question.
One day its columns are devoted to a
defense of the new revenue law, ad-
vocating the taxation of everybody
and everything railroads especially
to the full extent of their ability to
pay. Probably the next issue will be
found filled with Wells Drury
article advocating the removal of all
taxes except those on land and telling
of the wonderful things which would
be done for the State in the way of
reduced fares and freights if the rail-
road was relieved of taxation entirely.
Just now the Appeal editor is giving
his readers an exhibition as a contor-
Whether he will be able to retain his
grasp of both horns of the tax dilema
remains to be seen.
There is no inconsistency what ever
in the course of the Appeal on the
revenue question. The Appeal be-
lives in fully enforcing all the re-
venue law now on the statute book
and as long rs its editor has any
official duty to perform in connection
with the enforcing OF these laws they
will be enforced as nearly as possible
as laid down in the statute book
The writer believes that a man in
Story County or Ormsby County
should payIno more and no less taxes
in proportion to its wealth than a nj an
in Humboldt or Elko. There is nc
reason why a cooperation should pay
on twenty per cent of his holdings
and man with a house and lot pay
on one hundred per cent If the Silve
State can show any law which exemp!
the rich from paying their full quot;
of taxes, we would like to see it.
The fact that the editor of tn,
Appeal is under oath to support ane
enforce as far as able, the revenue law
of the state does not prevent him from
enjoying: the belief that the Singl
Tax system would be vast improve
ment on the present system and
the editor of the Silver State wou!
study the Single Tax system in a
its notifications. he would soon D.
satisfied that it would be very benef
cial to Nevada and largely increas
its population.
The idea that the railroads woul,
be relieved of taxation if land value
alone were taxed, is erroneous. Th
