DODG1NG THE LICENSE TAX.
City Collector Makes Accusation
Against Insurance Agents.

An effort on the part of a number Of
the fire insurance agents in Topeka to
keep hidden number of their companies
that the city could not collect from them
for licenses has been discovered by G. T.
Matungly, city license collector.
Mr.. Mattingly has list of the Topeka
agents and a list OF the companies If
the agents do not come to the city hall
Immediately and pay the back licenses,
the collector threatens to have published
the entire list
Through this manner of lodging the
license tax the fire insurance agents have
prevented the city in collecting nearly $500
which is due by law. The city ordinance
is drastic on this subject and only
through the efforts of License Collector
Mattingly have the city authorities re-
Trained from making arrests at once
The agents who have been holding back
their list of companies are among the
most prominent in the city. They are not
the obscure agencies-they are the in
tereSts that are well known.
Some of the licenses are due for a year
and some of them for more than that IS
far as the license collector Is able to dis
cover. An arrest would follow in quick
conviction but the city feels that pay
ment of the delinquent licenses will
square matters.

IF MEN WOULD WORK.
Navajos Would Get Rich in Short
Time

Washington, Sept. 6.-NaVajo Indian
bucks should stop attending dances,
feasts and chicken pull celebrations
and devote attention to sheep raising
and blanket weaving, according to re-
ports received at the Indian bureau,
which point out that the Navajo
''suuaws are the grub getters-" The
Indian bureau is gathering ntorna-
ton from the Indians and from trad
ers with whom they deal as to the eX-
tent of the Navajo sheep and blanket
industry It is believed that the re-
ports will show that this new New
Mexico-Arizona tribe of red men sells
annually between 100000 and $780,
600 worth of blankets. The govern
ment wants to teach them the value
of improving this industry and raising
a variety of sheep which will give
them better wool than that they OBJ
tain from the native sheep they now
use.
It is estimated that the Navajos
have 100000 sheep. of which 80 per
cent are native. Fully so per cent of
the tribe live from some work con-
nected with the sheep and blanket in
dustry.
Practically all the blankets are made
by the squaws who, with the children,
also do much of the work of sheep
herding and spearing and wool carding
and spinning. One report said that II
the bucks would help the women
make blankets they could earn on an
average $500 a year to a family, which
is more than the average salary of the
white families of this country. An
other report declared that generally
speaking the man is not a productive
factor in the two great industries of
sheep raising and blanket weaving
One reason why the government has
decided to help the Navajo in his
blanket industry is because limitations
have appeared on the market; where
fore the Navajo is to be urged to keep
up the quality of his product.
