wish people to take notice that of
the total amount that went into the
state treasurer's hands less than a
third was raised by state tax, and that
nearly one half of it WAS paid by the
railroads, savings banks, corpora
tions, and the so-caled monied i'll.
tarests of the state.
Now what is done with it? In the
first place, l give a table by which
s89s, 5000 is paid either directly in
cash or for the benefit Of cities and
towns directly back to the cities and
towns. This makes them the net
loser on account of state tax paid of
only 1856, 1858 and | want to note III
passing that out of 521 cities, towns
and plantations in the state 251 have
actually received as much or more
back into their municipal treasury
during the year 1906 than they paid
into the state tax. So that the state
expenditures have cost their people
nothing.
Items paid back to Towns and
Cities by State Treasurer, or for what
they would otherwise have had to pay

Taking up claim OF government

the land. when awakened by the mag

a glowing future. and in 1878 h. com
menced the Rocky Ford ditch. to
which enterprise is directly due the
wonderful development and prospcrit
OF the lower Arkansas Valley. Not

energy and perseverance, But why

Timpas Greek Reservoir Project.

Several hundred men and teams are
at present engaged in pushing the
work on the reservoirs and bitches
of the Timpas Creek Reservoir Diteh
and Land Company. located near Tim
pas about eighteen miles south west
of La Junta.
1t secures its water supply from
Timpas creek conveying the same
to two reservoirs that hare ca
paclty sufficient TO irrigate 10000
acres OF land. The excavation for
titchcs and the building of the res
ervoir dams will necessitate the
handling of 100000 cubic feet OF
earth.
The work has been undertaken by
the contracting firms of Eggleston <
Matthew and Allan & Rafferty,, and
these firms have over 100 teams and
$50 men at work and expect to have
everything completed within six
months. The dam across Timpas
creek is already constructed and is
OI EtiHlpi tohtiNt's ~ f'"'''N
material has been used in the head
gate which is of the most sub
stantial character.
The lands to be irrigated are the
finest in the state of Colorado and
the placing of water on this TO-
900 acres will open up an entirely
new section of the Arkansas Valley.
All the land has already been taken
up and very little is offered for sale
for the reason that as soon as wa
ter is on the land 1t will readily
bring 500 per acre. Much of this
land Is tributary to La Junta and
some of our local business men al.
ready feel the effects of increased
business through the development OF
this new enterprise
