TELLS OF OLD
A
lanes Gordon Allen Says the
Camp Had a Population of
$500 in '70s.

James Gordon Allen, one of the pio-
neers of the State of Nevada, who is
acquainted with the history of the old
camps that have long since passed into
oblivion, is in Manhattan. To talk with
Mr.. Allen is a pleasure, as he is able to
entertain one by the hour with stories
of times that once have been, says the
News.
In the early 70's when flour was SELL
ing for SIG per hundred pounds in the
old Manhattan district, Mr.. Allen was
a resident of that camp and the stirring
times of those days are still fresh in
his memory. Old Manhattan was then
a town of $500 inhabitants and full of
the life Of frontier mining camps. Three
big mines were working and taking out
ore Of an exceptionally rich character;
some Of the ore that went to the Man
haitian mill ran as high as $2500 to the
ton in silver.
Mr. Allen is thoroughly acquainted
with the downfall of the camp, and is
of the opinion that its depression was
in no way on account of the working
out of the mines, which he believes are
as good today as they ever we're.
President Ralston of the California
Bank of San Francisco owned the prop
critics and through some financial
trouble was crowded to the wall.
Shortly after his financial ruin he COM
mitted suicide in San Francisco and
from the day of his death the town be-
gan to wane until it was finally deserted,
s~uperinduced by the crash in silver.
Mr.. Allen stated that the Bank of Cali
fornia owned five patented claims in the
old district, as well as a number of
properties in Jefferson canyon. These
latter properties were abandoned, due
to the same cause which started Man
haitian on its downward journey.
In the days Of old Manhattan's glory
freight was brought into camp from
Austin, after being teamed from Wads-
worth to the latter place and the COM
modities Of life were very expensive.
The lodges in the old district were not
very wide, according to Mr.. Allen, but
they were ~phenomenally rich and the
production from the mines amounted
into the millions. Little or no attention
was paid to gold mining those DAYS as
silver was high and fortunes could be
made in the mining of that metal with
out regard to gold. Where the present
Manhattan stands is a country that has
been ~prospected and it seems marvel
ously strange that no one in the days of
long ago evar discovered the great
quantities of gold which were right
under their noses.

THE ANANIAs RT-sTNEss

1t appears that there are still sew
eral relatives of Ananias in Kansas At
any rate. less than five million dollars
Of money was reported to the assessors
Tor taxation. while the banks report
that over 100 millions are on deposit
in their vaults. not counting the
change that people are carrying
around in their pockets.
Thus it is apparent that 125 mil
lions Of dollars in cash is escaping tax
alton. and while this state of affairs
exists. the people who own this 125
millions have no very just cause for
growing about railroad taxes
Nobody pays taxes except those who
can't escape. The man who is an
otherwise good citizen believes he is
justified in hiding his money from the
assessors. for if he is honest enough
to report it the burden OF taxation falls
on him too heavily. If he should re-
port it. he would have to pay his own
share of the taxes and also some for
each of a dozen of his neighbors who
hide their money. So he believes he is
justified in hiding his money along
with the rest.
AS a result of this policy, and OF the
plan of assessing property at from one
sixth to one-third of its real value, the
rate in Kansas runs from three to
seven per cent. The eastern investor,
who is accustomed to paying on actual
value, learns that the tax rate is seven
per cent in Kansas, and you couldn't
get him to invest in the state under
any circumstances.
If all property were listed for taxa
ton. and if it were listed at its actual
value. the tax rate would be only from
one-half to one per cent, and no one
would pay any more taxes in actual
money than they do now.
Our tax system needs a thorough
reform A ton
