A FEW MORE HARD
FACTS ON TAXATION

A few more facts about the levying
of taxes in Chaves county. The great
est effort has been made by the pres
ent Board of County Commissioners
to be fair to all tax payers, and the
few complaints that have been filed
is evidence of the fact that the Board
has succeeded in being just and equi-
table to all.
The Register-Tribune has stated
repeatedly that the name of T. d.
White is not on the tax rolls of Cha
yes county and that he pays no tax
es This in spite of the fact that Mr..
White is a large tax payer, one of
the largest in the county. He owns a
large interest in the Littlefield and
White Company, and in addition pays
personal taxes. The company is as
sessed at valuation of $23,6 500. ac-
cording to the figures given by the
R. T. man. The writer of this arti-
Gle has before him a tax receipt
made out in the name of I. d. White,
showing conclusively that his name
is On the rolls, not only through the
company in which he is interested
but as T. D. White Yet the Register
Tribune says: Mr. T. D. White (who
pays no taxes in Chaves county,
And all this time the office of the Reg
ister-Tribune is located about one
block from the office of the assessor
and treasurer.
n
other instance where the R. T. man
got his dates, his figures and his
facts mixed. Mr.. Littlefield is assess
ed in Roosevelt county where his int
erests are located.
The Board of County Commissioners
is composed of successful business
men, who have managed their own
affairs successfully and have made
Chaves county the best conducted
and best governed county in the Ter
ritory. So well is this known that the
Territorial taxing authorities have
publicly commended Chaves county
and have issued circulars to other
counties citing Chaves county as
model to be followed.
And who are the men who are crit
icising the County Commissioners?
Take a look at the tax rolls of Cha
yes county and see if you can find
the names of the chief instigators
of all this mess of falsehoods.
The r. t. Man says he has shown
conclusively that the big cattle COM
panies have been dealt with lightly
by the assessor, and yet the paper
has not produced a single iota of
proof except the assertions of its edi-
tor. for undoubtedly the editor is be-
hind all statements appearing in the
paper, even if he does plead -
ance. The figures given show that
it would be impossible to conduct the
county government as it is conducted
without the large sums paid in taxes
by these big cattle companies. If the

/ Register-Tribune can produce proof
that a single cattle or sheep owner
is assessed for a smaller number of
produce the proof and not confine
its efforts to attempting to Dlacken
the characters of men of integrity
and worth in the community.
The Register-Tribune says it has
shown that $50 homesteaders are tax
ments on public land. All correct
enough, and the taxing is done by di-
rection of Republican law. The R. T..
man does fail to show, however, that
these assessments are not made in
strict conformity with the law, Re-
publican law at that Just think of it,
Homesteaders, with families living
in their residences, with wells and
wind mills and miles of fencing. as
sessed the enormous sum of SIS, and
some of them running up as high as
500.
The R. T. also says it "has shown
that vast tract of land which is un-
Ger the control of one of the party
bosses, is turned in at 80 cents an
acre, while thousands of acres of ex-
actly similar land, when it is owned
by poor people is assessed at 81 per
acre or more.'' But here is where the
double dealing of the R. T. Man
comes in. He does not say that the
Republican law says this land MUST
BE TAXED in this manner. Probably
this 3O-cent land should be taxed
higher, but the Assessor and County
Commissioners have no more to do
has the r. T. Man,-not as much, for
the R. T. Man is supporting the party
that made this rate for this land, and
Is now engaged in trying to deceive
the victims of this same law.
Mr.. Voter, the proper thing to do
is to vote the straight Democratic
ticket as a rebuke to the men who
have made these conditions, and help
send Democrats to the legislature who
will remedy the defects which now
exist in the tax laws of the Territory

been, slander has been circulated
on the street by parties intimately
connected with the local Republican
organ to the effect that the county
paid for the automobile road construc-
ted to Four Lakes by Mr.. White for
use in travelling to and from the ranch
of the Littlefield Cattle Company. The
