Ing 10 the public hnAs. and their At

mands the serious and earnest con-
sldsration of every citizen of the Re-
public. Not only does this new sys-
tenn affect our economic and business
interests, but it seriously threatens
the principle of home rule In the con-
duct Of our local affairs.
The real issue is, plainly and dis
tinctly. whether the public domain
other than the little remaining farm
Ing lands-shall be held in perpetuity
by the National government free from
taxation by the states, to be admins
tered through leasehold for revenue
for the federal treasury, and under
bureaus at the National capitol.
AS taxes upon property in the west
ern states for thirty years equal its
value, perpetual ownership by the Ma
ton, would effect deprivation of
tax revenue to the states equal to the
value of those lands every thirty
years. In other words, 1t would cost
those states the value of the public
domain every thirty years and yet
the states never own the same.
A rental or lease based upon the
output Of natural resources is a tax
upon production, and tax upon pro-
duction is invariably paid by the con-
sumer. Such policy would compel the
western states to bear an undue pro-
portion of the burdens of the Ma
tional government. No other states
have ever been compelled to pay roy
alties upon their natural products,

upon water powers, grazing, etc,
equity demands that tax should pass
into the treasures Of the respective
states. where it is so greatly needed
These are the conditions which con-
front us. 1t rests entirely with the
people OF the West whether they will
acquiesce in this proposed new order
Of things.
The President Is our authority,
through the medium of his message Of
December 8, 1910, that these are not
questions pertaining to partisan poll
tics. Hence. those Of all political
faiths can unite on common ground
for the defense of the West. This
convention is designed as an instru-
ment through which the will of the
people of the public land states can
be expressed.
With cordial urgency. respectfully

the states which are included in the
foregoing list and apportionment.
