The great Sells & Downs united
show, which is advertised to aP-
pear in La unta, Thursday, June
nth, claims to be different from
other shows, and, judging from
the great variety Of features and
attractions advertised, it will have
no trouble to convince it's patrons
that it is very different from other
tent shows. The great Sells &
Downs shows have horses, and SO
have other shows, but the Sells &
Downs shows have the best horses
in the land. Other shows have
bands. acrobatic performers, riders,
etc., but they are all very different
from those with the Sells & Downs
show. 1t pays higher salaries, and
not only secures superior perform
ers mentioned above, but it has
many novel, new and mysterious
acts that cannot be initiated sue
cessfully. Most Of the names and

Collision on Santa Fs.

\ special dispatch to the Pueblo
Ch!efta;n from Topeka yesterday,
says:
A disastrous collision between
Santa Fe passenger trains at Still
well, near Olathe, Thursday alter
noon, killed seven persons and in
jured three. Train No. I was CO.
ing west at fnll speed and crashed
into the Chicago section OF No. 8,
east bound. No passengers on the
west bonnd train were injured or
killed, while on the east bound
train FIVE were killed and three
were injured. Three tramps who
were stealing a ride on the Chicago
train are among the dead.
The only member of the train
crew to be hurt was Conductor
Frank Johnson. of the Pullman
compa ny.
The trains were routed on the
Missouri Pacific tracks on account
OF the floods, which have washed
out the Santa Fe tracks. Orders
were sent out by the train dis
patcher to-day Tor both trains to
meet at Stillwell. 1t is charged at
the Santa Fe Office in Topeka that
the crew on the Chicago train dis
regarded this injunction and ran a
mile or more past the meeting
place. On running slowly by. the
engineer saw no other train, and
as he had a clear track, according
to his orders he rushed ahead
No. whistled before the east
bound train had proceeded far, but
too late to avoid a collision.
AS soon as the news of the accI-
dent was received IN, Topeka re-
lief train was made up and sent tc
the scene OF the wreck. DIR. p.
Raster, chief surgeon OF the Santa
Fe, was in charge, and took with
him a number OF physicians and
nurses.

the great Sells & Downs shows are
similar to others in but very few
minor points, and that, as whole
in quality, quantity and character
it is far different from other tented

EDITOR TRIBUNE:

EDITOR TRIBUNE: :.
Last Wednesdays TRIBUNE says
that the city council On Monday
night, "passed resolution permit
ting" the saloons to remain open
all night" This tind is a mistake,
but this much. however. is true:
Mayor Corbin went 20 the night
marshal and ordered him to allow
the saloons "to remain open all
night"
Many who know MIR. Corbin will
be surprised at his action in this
regard. When he was running for
the office OF mayor he was accused
of being the saloon keepers candi-
date and he positively and per
sistently denied it, and SO did his
friends, and he told number OF
persons that his position on the
saloon question was this: 80
leave everything as it is now; am
satisfied with the saloon situation
as it is now," and he secured a
large number OF votes on that plat
form which he would not have
otherwise received.
Now what do we find? In two
short months after his election he
throws of his mask and shows the
cloven foot by ordering police
officer to allow the saloons to
violate a law OF the State OF Colo
rado and an ordinance of the City
OF La unta-a thing he has no
more right or power to do than he
has to suspend the habeas corpus
act or repeal the decalogue. Usual
| ly, and heretofore, the mayor has
submitted matter OF such import
ance 20 the city council at council
meeting and allowed them to de
eide il by vote, but in this case
Mayor Corbin evidently thinks
that he is the WHOLE PUSH, and
that the opinion OF majority OF
the council is not worth consider
ing.
If Mayor Corbin thinks he has
the power to order the non-enfoTce-
ment OF city ordinance or state
law he is sadly afflicted. He has
no such power. Such an order
is null and void and the city
marshal has no right to obey
it. Moreover, am reliably in
formed that majority OF the
saloonkeepers in La Junta are in
favor of closing their saloons at
midnight, but they insist that all
should do SO and not a lew.
| When the mayor entered upon
the duties Of his Office he took an
| odtu W oD-J thc laws VI thC Shdte
and enforce the ordinances OF the
city Of La Junta, and now we in
sist and demand that he comply
with his oath OF Office, and il he re-
fuses to do SO he should be prose
euted for "non feasance in Office, "
for he is clearly liable under the
statutes.
| have great deal Of respect
for a public officer if he sticks
close to the law, and l would allow
him a great deal OF latitude and
longitude when public sentiment is
opposed to a law, but IN this case
the overwhelming majority OF the
people OF La Junta want this law
and ordinance enforced, the same
as other ordinances are enforced.
We want no favoritism, no par
tiality shown toward one class OF
business men more than anothep.
Treat all alike.
Respectfully,
| NJ EfSITy

REVENUE REVISION.

California like other States is not sat.
ished With its revenue laws. Many
favor their revision. Az q convention
OF the assessors of California recently
held in Sacramento the following reso-
luton was adopted:
"Resolved, That this convention is in favor
Of separating the sources Of State from county
revenues, and favors such q gradual revision
of our revenue laws as will make il possible to
raise revenue for State Purposes by means
other than the general property tax, which
system Of raising State revenue is in vogue in
a number Of Eastern States"
The revenue laws Of Nevada are in
great need Of revision. They are very
crude and unsatisfactory. Revenue
laws involve the whole subject Of taxa
ton, and taxation is the most important
question that csn come before any Leg.
islature. In just taxation lies the great
problem OF good government. Unjust
taxation is the very essence of bad gov
eminent.
Every question of taxation should be
carefully considered. No hssty legisla.
tion should be enacted. Every citizen
or inhsbitsnt of the State should bear
his just portions OF the burdens of tax
alton, and should contribute to the sup
port of the State government in exact
proportion to his means. Any revenue
law that c~ontravenes the letter or spirit
of these principles is unjust, and ought
never to have been enacted, and if
enacted should be repealed q. the
earliest possible moment.
On this important subject the SENTI-
MEL may have a word to say later. At
present. it simply calls attention of the
people and of the State Legislature 10 the
necessity of revising the revenue laws
so as to meet u equal and exact
justice to every citizen and taxpayer of
the State.

NEVADA PRESS

Reno Ledger.
The Ledger. while it has great respect
for the ladies', is opposed to them holding
clerkships in the Legislature when it ex-
cludes men who have done good party
service. This kind of political work
should stop. We believe that these posi-
tons should go to people who perform
active party service. 1t is bad politics to
ignore the claims Of party workers. In
the Assembly good party workers were
denied the right to positions by Assem-
blymen who had their SISTERS, cousins
and aunts" on hand to fill them with.
Such work has raised a storm that will
not down. We have heard some very
severe criticisms over the matter and can
say that we are emphatically opposed to
such political work. No member OF the
Nevada Legislature should think for q
mornent that he can escape criticism
when ne endeavors to get his family
relatives into legislative positions and
ignores the claims of able party workers
for c~lerkships. Ii is bad politics and soon
kills for all time those who pursue such
political action. 1t is selfish and cannot
be Endorsed by any fai.-minded man.
