Rush to Tax Office.

AS soon as the tax Office in the District
building opened for business this morning
the room was swarmed with men and wom-
en- of all classes and nationalities anxious
to pay their taxes for the fiscal year ending
May 81. 1907. An hour before the building
opened nearly a hundred persons were lined
up on the steps, and all during the day
there was a long line from the tax office
out through the main corridor to the en-
trance of the building.
The new tax law, which goes into effect
next month, is responsible for this rush
for after June l 1 per cent month is added
to the tax ticket, and the payment Of the
tax before June 1 saves that penalty.

various reasons Hquidated actual stocks,
but which did not wish to deliver their own

case, that considerable amount of stocks
may be delivered later on. which might
cause a severe break. 1t Is also feared by
some interests that those who are heavily

to come into the market for a temporary

who live here and have worked out their
salvation by many years Of hard work?
1t is often stated that the ranchmen are
selfish and, in order to gain their ends,
would sacrifice future possibilities for
the land in satisfying present needs.
This is not SO in majority of cases.
The government does own the land but
this does not give them the right moral
ly to dictate policy that will work a
hardship on the actual residents of the
west, and what is more the government
will not do it. There would be neither
justice nor business in such a policy.
And while the government may at times
by mistake inaugurate detrimental
policy, such policy will not stand
against the protest of the public.
