The Colorado farmers are rapidly

There was general alarm throughout
the state over the situation, a. it was
known that 90 per cent Of the acre-
age was seeded and it was feared
that the daily freeze and thaw would
serve to rot the seed that was not

Assessments.

The following from the Bent
County Democrat is good advice for
the taxpayers of all counties. When
the individual taxpayers show more
honesty in giving in assessments,
they will have more right to COM
plain Of the tax dodging BY corpora
'tions:
1.-THE Santa Fe railway company
il preparing to take further evidence
- to value of taxable property in
Bent county and also make an effort
to discover property which has ss-
oapsd taxation. The evidence taken
on the preliminary injunction, in con-
nsotion with the state auditors re-
port, shows that the value Of irrigs-
ted lands, which is the thing the
Santa Fe chiefly complains of avers-
ged over one dollar per acre higher
in Bent county than the average in
the state. It is we'll known that
County Assessor Throup has always
used every effort possible with the
small salary allowed and with the
limited powers the law gives him, to
discover all taxable property, in
oluding moneys and credits. This
item Of credits and moneys is an
other thing the Santa Fe partic-
ulsrly complains of, but information
upon this subject is generally pos
sssssd only by the individual tax
payer who should list them, and the
assessor has been compelled to rely
mainly upon the schedules return cd.
Every citizen is interested in seeing
that all taxable property be assessed
and bear its just proportion Of the
expenses of the government of the
county. II this case results in get
ting all property on tho assessment
roll it will result in reducing the
burden Of taxation upon the great
majority Of taxpayers who own prop

property in Bent county il fair and
above the average Of the other
counties in tho state, and II the
things mentioned above were carried
