1t is a pleasure to go down to the
Hacltfeld dock at present since it has
been replanked by the department Of

interesting OF course very few boats

when the China locked there few

The assessed valuation OF La Junta
has increased nearly three fold during
the past eleven years. In the year
1901 the assessment WAS made for
the first time under the new rev.
enue law just passed. which provided
that all property be assessed at Its
full cash value. The assessment for
that year was made on basis OF
about seventy per cent OF the full
cash value. and for all other years
about one-third OF the real value.
At the present time the city Of
La Junta is In better shape financi.
ally than 1t has tcen for n dozen
years or mere. The proceeding city
council made very laudable effor,
to put the finances OF La Junta on
n cash basis. and succeeded In doing
SO with the single exception OF the
water plant fund. The cash basis
system has been continued by the
present city council and II is hoped
they will succeed In maintaining II.

$4,000 In cash on hand. besides
