Denver. Feb 1.-THE letter sent by
Mr.. Alexander to Senator Grinith. ex-
planning the purpose Of the proposed
constitutional amendment, was as fol-
lows:
Hon. Charles D. Gnmth, Senator Of
the Eighth District. City:
Dear Sir-I transmit you under this
sover Senate concurrent resolution
No.. proposing an amendment to
lection IL OF article X. of the constitu-
lion OF the state OF Colorado concern
Ing revenue. and in regard to same
| desire to say that the purpose Of this
Amendment is to base the state reve-
nue upon the collections made by the
county treasurers throughout the
state. instead OF upon the assessed
valuation Is fixed by the different
eounty assessors. For q great many
years there has been . controversy
between the different assessors
throughout the state AZ to which
county would assess property at the
lowest figure. There were two rea-
sons for this: One was the low amount
established by the state board Of
equalization. and the other that every
assessor was anxious to have his
county as low as possible on account
valuation for state purposes. The
legislatures in the past have done
everything possible TO remedy this
state OF affairs. and the county as
SCISSORS themselves have endeavored
from time to time to reach agree
ments that would make each county
pay its just proportion due the state.
in my opinion this amendment will
end the controversy and remedy these
defects in compelling each county TO
pay its fair proportion to the state

ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO MAY
BE ADMITTED AS ONE STATE

The arrangement contemplates put
ting the capital at Santa Fe, which
would be a concession to New Mexico
II is said that bill embodying this
idea has already been drawn. and that
it may also provide for a division OF
the new state when each has popula-
ton of 100000 people, each of the pres
ent territories becoming state. :
1t is understood that some plan is on
foot as to Oklahoma. whereby Indian
Territory will eventually be added to
it. In the parleys about a compromise,
it is said that the idea of adding In
dian Territory to the new state OF
Oklahoma in 1907 has been earnestly
pressed.
Senator Quay on Monday gave notice
in a meeting Of the agricultural COM
mittee that he might have some aodi-
fication to make In his proposed amend
ment to the agricultural appropriation
bill. The committee therefore post
poned further consideration Of the
amendment till Friday. That il inter-
preted in some quarters as meaning
that efforts will be made to complete
the details Of the compromise by that
date.

WOULD COMPEL COUNTIES TO
DEAL FAIRLY WITH THE STATE

A bill similar to this was introduced
in the New York Legislature. and the
passage of the same was recommended
by the Chamber Of Commerce OF New
York City. and recently . bill along
these lines has been passed in the
state of Oregon.
Some Of the counties have been as
sessing a. only fifteen per cent. ON the
dollar of the actual valuation: some at
twenty-five per cent. some at thirty
three and one-third per cent. some
at fifty per cent, and other coun-
ties upon higher valuations, SO that
you can readily see the inequality
and injustice that prevails as between
different counties. But should this
amendment be adopted 1t would COM
pei each county to pay its just pro-
portion OF the taxes due the state. ~
1t requires a certain amount OF money
to run each county every year. and
IL the revenue OF the state Is based
upon the collection actually made by
the county treasurers there Is no way
by which any county could evade its
proportionate amount that should be
paid by 1t to the state.
1T is a plain business proposition.
and as you are one of the representa-
tive business men of the Senate. I take
the liberty Of sending this measure to
you. with the request that you do
all you can to have this resolution
adopted.
Il shall be glad to appear before the
committee at any time and furnish
any additional information that 1t may
desire. Yours very truly,
