The chinch bug has served notice
upon the farmers of this vicinity
that not for long will they be per-
mitted to raise wheat. They have
appeared in limited areas all about
the city. Small white patches of
grain which they have destroyed
r numerous, although confined
principally to light soil. 1t is the
beginning of the end of profitable
wheat growing in this vicinity.
Iowa, Wisconsin and Southern Min
nesota had the same experience sew
eral years ago, and while COM
batted for a time the farmers were
forced to yield. Corn, cattle and
prosperity followed. The meadow
and the pasture succeeded. the
wheat fields, and the creamery has
supplanted the elevator. The
milch COW, the beef steer, the hog,
the sheep have brought wealth in
place of bare existence. Stearns
county lands are too valuable for
profitable wheat growing. That
cereal is Observation-Disclosures crop,
yielding quickest returns for the
least labor, but sixty cent wheat
can not be proitably produced on
land worth from thirty to fifty dol
lars an acre which will yield but ten
or ffteen bushels. The chinch bugs
tell our farmers to face the future
with confidence, to change thei,
methods Of farming. Live stock
production IN all its phaseseinxeixes
more labor, but it is labor which is
generously remunerated. Farm and
farmer improve by mean of it.
Fortune follows the foot print of
the hoof.

The gospel of good roads is being
preached now as never before
throughout the lenghth and breadth
of the land. Good roads, to be
sure, are expensive, but not so ex
pensive by half as poor roads. A
highway that will permit double the
average load to be hauled over it re-
turns a good dividend upon the cost
of its construction every time it is
traversed. 1t saves time, horse
flesh, rolling stock and profanity.

Stratton Inheritance Tax,

Attorney General N c. Miller is not
satisfied with the assessment of the
Stratton estate at 81, ,000. 900 and has re-
quested Judge Orr of the County Court
of FL Paso county to appoint an ap-
praiser to value the property in behalf
of the state. He believes that it is
worth at least $7,O0O,O00. whereas 1t is
only appraised at s4.O0O,O00.
The difference in the attorney gen.
erals figures and the value now quoted
means if the inheritance tax is sus-
tained at least $lS0,o00 to the state.
Under the last law the inheritance
tax is graduated and is paid as follows
Where children or husband and wife
are beneficiaries, 81 per hundred dol
lars; uncles. aunts, nephews, nieces.
So on each one hundred dollars; other
objects, 81 to Sc per one hundred dol
lars. The Stratton estate comes under
the latter class at So for each 500,
and under the present appraisement
the state should receive $4,000 in
heritance tax. while if it comes to the
attorney generals standard the state
will receive s420,o00
The attorney general believes that
the last inheritance tax law will be
| declared valid. as it is modelled on
I
declared so. The inheritance tax law
and the planning of measures for plac-
ing it in operation is occupying most of
the attorney generals time.
| After hearing arguments in the case
OF the people of the state of Colorado
upon the relation and complaint of
Emma NJ. Herey versus James S. Ea-
| eleton, Judge John 1. Mullins in the
District Court at Denver handed down
a decision for the plaintiff in division
Two OF the District Court, August 1st,
| which installs Miss Herey firmly in
her Office as county superintendent of
schools in the city and county of Den
yer until her successor is duly quail
ned, and enjoins the defendant. ap-
pointed by the board of school district
No. j. from performing any duties OF
the office of deputy superintendent.
On the advice of Attorney General
N. c. Miller. State Auditor Holmberg
has decided to pay the amounts speci-
lied in the election contests appropria-
ton. Mr.. Holmberg was in doubt as
to the manner in which the money
should be paid. but he has finally de-
clded that the signatures of the chair
men OF the legislative committees on
finance and elections will be sufficient.
The auditor will adhere to the advice
of the attorney general to pay the SAL
aries as they are specified in the stat
utes and not according to the appro-
priation bill. when they appear in the
statutes. In following out this advice
the auditor will have to pay the salary
or 5000 for special game warden.
which was stricken out Of the appro-
priation bill. as the statutes provide
Tor ten chief game wardens on regular
salaries and at the present time he has
only six chief wardens

Auditor Will Honor Vouchers.

The vouchers issued by the Worlds
Fair Board at its last session Will be
paid. Auditor Holmberg has received
an opinion from Attorney General Mil
Ter to the effect that he is warranted in
honoring them.
The opinion states that If the vouch-
er is acted upon by the board and
signed by the president and secretary,
a possible error as to the correct com
missioner-in-chief who is required to
sign it. will not make the auditor liable
for assuming or paying the warrant.
The material requisite is that the
voucher be acted upon by the board,
and the signature of the officers is on
ly evidence that this has been done.
The attorney general also says that
Commissioner-in-Chi Wilson is the
proper person to sign vouchers. and
that their payment is protected by the
action of the board, of which a quorum
is three.
The contention that the members of
the board were appointed by the Leg
islature is deemed fallacy. as in the
act calling for the increase of the board
from three to five members 1t was or
dercd that the governor should appoint
the new members. so showing that the
Legislature meant that the appointing
power should be in the hands of the
governor The opinion also cites arti-
cles of the constitution which permit
the governor to remove any person ap-
pointed by him for misconduct, NAL
feasance or incompetency in Office.
Unless Van Z. Rouse gives up the
$4,000 belonging to the fund. which
he has in his possession, within the
next few days suit will be commenced
to recover it. Rouse has said that he
does not want to hinder the board in
the performance of its duty, but that
he has been advised by his attorneys
not to give up the money until the mat
ter is settled in the courts.

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY

The Board of Capitol Managers at
meeting held Aug. 5th. spent most OF
the time in settling up old debts owed
by the state for the state building
Among other things they turned 81
$40. IS over to the city of Denver on ac-
count of the money owed for paving
the streets surrounding the capitol
This money is part of the appropria-
ton of 1899 which has not been avail
able until this year. This leaves them
still owing the city some $l2 900. Then
they paid a little over $4,000 to the
contractors who have had charge of
the painting and decorating of the in
terror of the capitol. Ten per cent. of
this. or sl,70O. is still held out as Sc
curity reservation until the work has
been approved by the state architect
1t is claimed that the best and most
extensive list of premiums ever Of
fered in Colorado is included in the
pamphlet just issued by the Colorado

miums will be paid in full. no matter
what happens with the state appro-
priation and the promise of the Fair
Association to this effect will be suf-
ticient assurance to those who were

with the character and past record of
