Taxation in Colorado.

Inasmuch as the constitution and supreme court decisions of Colorado long ago persu d the state legisla- ture to adopt tte relative yields of pro- ductive mining property as the criteria by which to value such property for the purposes of taxation, this idea has become fixeG principle in the revenue laws of the state. The differences of views have arisen concerning the methods classifying productive prop erty, as distinct from non-productive property, and of determining what proportion of the gross production should be taken as representative of the mine's value for taxation purposes.
 The present law accepts the "gross proceeds" as the criteron of value, and by this term is meant the proceeds secured after deducting transportation and treatment costs; this method does not deduct the cost of mining. The property is valued at one fourth the grOSS prOCeeuS.
 A measure was introduced Tn the last legislature to revise the revenue law, and this bill was manifestly design ed to increase the burdens of the mines.
 It excited the opposition of the min ing men of the state, led bv the Col orado Chapter of the American Mining Congress, and, by strange chance, only the counter-proposals made by the chapter were adopted, the other revenue features being omitted. The result is that the measure has been sent to the governor in the form of an act to govern the valuation of mining property, and this act, if it receives the governors approval, should give the mine owner a fair show before the county assessors. It provides that the net proceeds, secured by deducting mining, transportation and treatment costs from the gross output, shall be the criterion for the valuation of the ground. It overcomes another object

It was a woman who followed up the little wash and upon loose bed rock picked up the nuggets. When she came into camp and showed them she was asked how much there was of it. She replied: ''I think I could have picked up that water bucket full" It was a wooden bucket painted blue.
 These lost mines are also known by the name of the Wagon Tire mines. which came about thus: Someone suggested the material might be gold, to which Sol Tethero replied, 'If it is can soon tell" He hammered piece flat upon a wagon tire and threw it upon the doubletrees to see if it would ring like a coin, as it was fiat, he pro- ceeded to pronounce it brass.
 Sol was no fool either, but a little short of meterology. Remember this was before the era of gold in our country.

ion to the present law, which provides that a producing mine is one whose gross production exceeds 5,OOOs per annum, thus enlarging the class of "non- producers, which are otherwise valued. The new law classifies as a producer every mine whose net pro- ceeds shall exceed 1OOs per acre. Non producers cannot be valued at great CT amount per acre than the lowest producing mine in the same county.
 This provision promises to be a pro- tection for prospect property against the frequent efforts to burden unpro- ductive ground with oppressive assess ID snrs.-Denver Mining Science.

Option on Superior
 Mine Surrendered.

It is reported from Loresburg, N. M., that the Calumet and Arizona company has thrown up it's option on the Super for mine. The company took an option ou the property for 140,0 ,0OOS, to be paid at intervals. It paid the owners 50, OOOS, and another payment was due the first of this month.
 The Calumet and Arizona and the Superior and Pittsburg companies re- gently combined, and the new board of directors of the amalgamated company has been going over the affairs of the two compani S, and decided that lzO, OOOS was too much to pay for the Sup erior. They offered the owners B, ,OOOS, as a final payne lr, and said if IL s not acc pted the option would be thrown up and the deal declared off. Payne and O'Connor, two of the own CTS, considered the matter, and from their point of view if they accepted the offer they were out of it, and got only the comparatively small sum of 50,OOOS.
 If they rejected the offer they got their mine back, were ahead all that had been paid in on the option, and their property was in better shape to sell than it was when they made the deal with the CaluI ct and Arizona people. They concluded the mine was worth more than $50 0s to them, and rejected the Cffer a-d tooA the prop erty back.
 The mine was shut down, throwing some co men cut If en ployment, but many of then iumedi tely went to work for the S5 corp ny. Mir. Payne informed the Liberal that the property would be shut down but for a short time, for it was in a good shape to make money, and that is what the owners wanted.
