gross earnings tax on railroads from to
per cent ..,.
Now the organ of the Great Northern,
which made such strenuous efforts to de-
feat the bill, says the amendment. If
adopted, will save the Great Northern
money. $50. =. -. ~
The situation would be farcica1f if It
were not evident that the Globe is maxi
ing a desperate" effort to beat the bill by
misleading the voters. = -. - :. J..
The opening article is tissue Of mis-
statements, from start to finish, most of
them apparent on their face l., sf E,s.: ..s' : .
The: first question the reader asks is:
Would the railroads. through their news
paper organ, work for the defeat Of a
law whose enactment will save them
money? - :. = =. -, ,s':,
The Great Northern has shrewd attor-
neys and good bookkeepers, and when the
bill was first introduced it was carefully
analyzed. The Great Northern knew
what was in the bill then as well as it
does now. Yet it's lobby fought the bill
before the legislature, and it's newspaper
now opposes it before the people. - -
Where the Argument Lies.
The Globe point is this: Under. the
present law the railroads pay.a tax on
the gross earnings arising from business
within the state, while on interstate bust
ness they pay on such, proportion OF the
haul as comes within the state. The new
law taxes the interstate business ION a
proportion of earnings on all interstate
business passing through, into or out of
the state, as the mileage operated within
the state bears. to the entire mileage op-
Grated by. such company" u Z. -. : - =.
Now, says the Globe, on a haul Of: 600
miles, 300 of which is in Minnesota, the
road pays taxes on one-half. Under the
new law it would only pay on one fifth,
as only one-dfth of its mileage is in Min
nesota.~ Therefore, in spite Of the in
creased rate, the road will pay less taxes.
If all the Great Northern business was
between the twin cities and points ir
| North. Dakota or Montana, this argument
would be good. However, the Grea
Northern does the bulk of its business
| entirely within Minnesota. and on tina
business will hereafter pay instead Of :
| per cent. The Great Northern also doe.
| considerable through business to the wes
coast On haul to Seattle, for instance
| it now pays 8 per cent on one-fourth. O.
I the amount earned. I. Under the new Law
| it would pay 4 per cent on one fifth. i
takes, very little: figuring to show that OF
| through business the road will have tt
pay more tax than now. The state will
gain on local business and on through
business It's. only loss. and that sligh'
one, will be on business hauled to mid
idle distance, points. 1t Is easy to SET
why the Globe is kicking against the
pricks.

LOvel0ck Justice Again.

Two more prisoners have been sent up
by ~ex-Justice of the Peace Young of
Lovelock and now repine in the county
Jail. They were brought up from that
place by Constable Walsh yesterday. The
men are named Mike Dee and John Moo.
nan. They were charged with stealing a
watch. The former pleaded guilty and
was fined $500. The latter was let off with
a fine OF 5000.
From he's story told by Noonan it would
appear that he was railroaded to Jail. H
proved by witnesses that he had nothins
to do with the theft. Tie was sentenced
on Memorial Day-a legal h~oliday-ant
for that reason, If none other, is confined
in Jail without authority of law.
According to Dee's commitment, having
failed to pay $500 fine. he Will nave to
serve $50 days In jail-over eight months
The longest legal term OF Imprisonment
in a county JAY is six months.

REAL ARTESIAN E [
not Water Flow Struck on Desert Northeast Of
Town.

j. M. Taylor started last Monday to
bore a well on the desert six and ona-
quarter miles east of Toll House. about
eishl miles from the Sloan ranch and on
the N. l.. Cattle Company's range Thurs
day, at a depth of 100 feet, he struck a
How of artesian water, nearly boiling hot
1t rises four feet above the surface. He
struck no hard formation in this 100 feet
and will sink to a greater depth. Sinking
the well deeper is necessary. said Mr.
Taylor, because the high pressure of the
water will force sand and the loose gray
Ell up to the surface of the well. When
the hard formation is encountered the
well will be capped and used in the winter
Tor watering stock. AS the water will not
freeze 1t will always. be available for cat.
tie on the range.
Mr.. Taylor says the temperature of
the water is about the same as that at
the Golconda hot springs. There are no
apparent traces of minerals in the water.
but an analysis will be made to fully
determine the matter.
The striking of artesian water on the
sandy desert where Mr.. Taylor's well is
located means a great deal. 1t viii
doubtless be followed by the sinking of
other wells in the vicinity with every as.
surance of success. With artesian water
available the desert will be reclaimed.
with agricultural possibilities that can
only be imagined.
Mr.. Tay1or's success will doubtless lead
to attempts to find a~rtesian water at
other places. He is now making arrange
ments for the purchase of a drilling rig
with which he can sink to a depth of
LOCO feet and his future plans include
putting down a wei Ito that depth, If nee
essary, near Winnemucca at the base of
the Harmony mountains. The striking of
artesian water at a point where it would
be available for at least a partial supply
to this own would be of incalculable
benefit. 1t is becoming more apparent
every day hat the present supply is
wholly insufficient. 1t is absolutely nee
essary that the supply be increased in
some way unless the growth of the towr
is to be seriously retarded. The effort
TO find artesian water will nave to be
made sooner or later.
