In the House on the Sth instant the
special features of the day were the
discussion on constitutional amend
ment bills. they having precedence on
the calendar.
Senate bill I 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 other duties which could not be
used by Il state or county. II the sys-
ten were adopted here the tax on land
must he 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 1t now, but he gave notice
that unless he received more light he
would oppose II on third reading.
Mr.. Mclean was opposed to the prin-
ciple and would vote against II. 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 1t or not. He believed In home
rule. and even II opposed to adoption
Of the system would support this bill
because 1t referred the question to the
people. Mr.. German advocated II on
the merits OF the system. Mr.. Bartcls
doubted its adaptability to established
institutions. MFR. Martin supported Il.
Mr.. Medley opposed 1t. as It permits the
exemption OF certain corporations and
combinations from taxation. Mr..
Montgomery advocated 1t on the broad
principle that II referred to the people
the question OF choosing or rejecting.
Mr. Riley opposed II on principle.
The bill was finally recommended
for third reading.

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 a resolution Is being framed
to be introduced in the House asking
the Senate to pass few House bills
and get them to the governor.
Senate bill No. ., by Mr.. Rush,
amending the constitution and permit
ting the consolidation of the city and
county of Denver, was passed in the
House by a vote of Ii TO Z. Eleven
members We're absent or excused. 1t
is now in the hands of the governor.
George f. 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 10 defeat
the section II bankers would form Il
combination of enough money. The
First National had not been solicited
for funds to defeat it.
In the Senate on the 18th instant
Senator Taylor nsked unanimous con-
sent to Introduce resolution indorslng
the action of Senator Carter of Mon
tana in preventing the river and hnr-
Dor appropriation. After some debate
it was refused. \ message from the
governor was read stating that he had

On one OF the rural free delivery
routes in Maryland the other day a
strange man was noticed riding with
the regular driver. 1t was the assist
ant postmaster at Toronto. who had
been sent here by the Canadian post
master general to investigate our new
1y inaugurated but rapidly extending
rural delivery system. The promptness
with which enterprising men jump
from one country to another in search
of improvements when they hear of
them is notable. Nova Scotia already
has some rural delivery routes. and II
would not be surprising IL United
States ofIicia: appeared there before
long to look them over. The inter-
change OF ideas. helpful to both coun-
tries. was never no popular as It n
now. Far away Australia has given
us ballot reforms. and-for some of our
states-a new system OF land transfer.
New Zealand has also made its con.
trlbutions.

on the blanks was this: Length or

understood the question and returned

Various state societies have accom-
plished so much good in the way OF
preserving and marking places or
scenic and historic interest that con-
gress has been asked to create a ma
tional society. The Companion has
already mentioned the rescue OF the
Palisades. In Massachusetts most of
the spots conspicuous in colonial and
revolutionary history have been
marked by suitably inscribed tablets.
and similar work is in progress in Viz
ginia. Such efforts make a strong APP
peal TO the imagination: they also
perform n national service in keeping
the patriotic deeds OF the fathers before
