FIRES WORSE THAN EYER
Sections of the Rocky Mountain
Are Being Swept Bare Of
g.. All Timber.

Denver, Col, Sept. 1S.-Forest fires are
sweeping bare of timber sections of the
Rocky mountains from the Wyoming line
to central Colorado. The fires are spread
ing with terrible rapidity and conditions
are more serious now than at any time
since the first fire was reported about a
month ago.
Government inspectors and forest brig
AIDES are doing all in their power to check
the progress of the flames and are receiv
ing all possible assistance from ranchers
and mining men In some places the fires
have been checked, but not subdued. In
many places, however, they have gained
such Roadway that with the limited force
of fire fighters and other means at hand,
the government officials can see but little
hope of extinguishing the flames and must
necessarily allow them to burn them
selves out. -.-... ..-
New fires are reported daily and much
fine timber heretofore untouched by the
flames has either been wiped out or is
burning without hope of being saved.

that there will be a crush Of people along

Public Examiner Says Smaller Share
of Banks Undivided Profits
II Should Be Taxed.
Present Case Before State Board of
Equalization-He Will "a
Frame a Bill.

Public Examiner S. r.. Johnson argued
before the state board of equalization this
morning that a certain portion Of the I'M
diveded profits Of banks be made exempt
from taxation. He thought so per cent
would be fair and stated that he would
draft a bill for the next legislature. ~,
Mr.. johnson urged that the exemption
would encourage banks to keep on hand a
larger amount of undivided profits and
thus make them safer. At present, he
said, the undivided profits were got rid OF
in various way to avoid the tax, other
states had such exemption laws. In this
state bankers divided their profits. In
doing this they were not lodging their
share of the taxes. They paid a larger
tax proportionately than any other bust
ness interest, he said, and they paid it
without complaint, but they did not feel
that they should be taxed on undivided
profits which were exempted in neighbor-
ing states. &c.,. III - =
1.-THE banks,'' said he, ARE the custo-
dams of the funds belonging to all men in
all occupations and upon the strength and
prosperity Of banks depends the welfare
of all who deal with them. -.. 1870
The old system Of taxing banks on 50
per cent of their capital stock, surplus and
undivided profits will probably prevail
