Cananea overland last Saturday under
guard of six soldiers for Hermosillo,
according to the word which reached

half dozen bullets brought him to

was arrested at Naco several weeks
ago on charge of melting the Yaqui
Indians to revolt and attempting to
hribe the commander of the federal
garrison in small Sonora town to
poin the rebels. He was arraigned for
trial at Hermosillo, but when he was
taken out on horseback rather than
OH a train, no one expected that he
would reach Hermosillo alive. He
was formerly in business in Cananea
and at one time was a government Of

Douglas, Ariz., Sept. 27-Four hun

coachiba, 80 miles west of Nacozari,
yesterday and took what had been left
after two previous raids. According
to information which reached Mexican
Consul Cuesta, the rebels were COM

tC left of US, with the indications that
we are going to leave as bequest to
our children, state denuded of its
choicest timbers, denuded Of its choic-
est coal and rich mineral lands, de-
nuded of its best grazing and agricuI-
tural lands and encumbered with a
lot of debts and without system Of
taxation that will permit US to take
care of those bonds.
To any unprejudiced' person, who
approaches the situation with open
eyes, the evils of such a condition are
only too apparent. The st. Louis
Rocky Mountain and Pacific railroad,
bonded for $15,oo,ooo and assessed
uron a return of some 100000, is but
a'concrete example. It is but one Of
many. 1t should be used as an ex-
ample, since the charge is freely
made that through it's attorneys, the
various corporations, land grant own
ers and big property men, contribute
to fund each campaign, to keep in
power, what has been known in the
past as the republican party. So far
as being the republican party, it knew
no more of the principles of the re-
publican party than it did Of the DEM
ocratic party. Those few men, whose
immense profits and whose immense
holdings were made possible by their
tax scheme, cared no more for party
lines than though none existed. It
was a purely financial proposition
with them and they were willing to
play both ends against the middle at
all times; as they were to defeat any
nan whom they did not believe they
could control, be he republican or
democrat. The question now before
he state is the question Of dealing
aith this system which has made it
for the poor man to get
, foothoId in this state but which has
few men at the expense
# the many. It is the question Of
lr adequate taxation system in New
Mexico If New Mexico is to be state

These miners did not vince when
the coal companies evicted them in

But when the guards began a cam

There have been battles between

PRIMER LESSONS ON
A TAXATION SYST


A TAXATION SYSTEM
Every thoughtful man in New Mex
leo who has at heart the good of New
Mexico is compelled to admit that tc
start off the new state with heavy
be nded Indebtedness, such as we nov
have and at the same time to expend
this bonded indebtedness which
is, in effect, nothing more than a
loan, 10 to build badly for the future
of the state
The question then arises as to how
we are to avoid this awkward posi-
tion? The solution lies primarily in
our scheme oftaxation. As matter
Of fact we have no scheme of taxation.
We have bungIing, incompetent and
entirely inadequate method of assess
ing taxes that sooner or later. must
be dealt with and the sooner it is
deaith with the better for the new
state.
It is not question Of anti-corpora-
tion or anti anything. It 10 merely a
question Of installing in the state, an
honest, equitable system whereby the
rich and the poor alike shall
pay their just proportion Of an
adequate tax but whereby that which
tends to least improve the state but
which 10 best capable Of bearing tax
alton shall stand the brunt.
In BernaliIio county, for instance,
they have been agitating for many
months, the survey of the lands In
the country precincts because they
assert that they do not pay an ade-
quate tax, in many instances no tax
and that II those lands were taxed

adequately, they would be highly de-
ve'oped. On first appearance, tina,
theory is seemingly correct. It is
entirely correct, If it is made to an.
ply to all alike. In the city of Al.
buquerque, however, there are vaIua.
BILE tracts Of land being held by specu.
istors. They are held at prices far
in excess Of the returns for taxation.
In order to develop those Rio Grande
valley farms, the city property ought
in all fairness be made to pay it's
part of the traffic. II is true that
the city of Albuquerque pays the ma
jor share Of the tax in that county,
but, at the same time, those men who
hold unimproved real estate at fancy
prices, could not do so were they
forced to pay a tax based upon the
price at which they value the land to
the intending purchaser This same
condition exists in Santa Fe, in Ration,
In fact 1t exists nearly all over the
state. That 10 the first place in which
the average citizen rubs noses with
the present tax scheme. But to car
ry the scheme to it's logical concIus-
ion, we have only to look at the i'm.
mense land holdings of few men
and of few corporations to get at
the real root Of the evil. Through
control Of legislation, made possible
by years of territorial regime, they
have been enabled to entrench them
selves and their tax schemes deeply
into our governmental system so that
now, when we, as state, take into
our own hands, the reigns of govern
ment, we find ourselves facing bond
issues to right Of US and bond issues

But these American miners finally
obtained guns and it is going hard
with the guards. AS | said before, 1t
/ is real war here now in the Kama
waha valley.
The battle of Mucklow, beginning
July 2S, lasted two days. That morn
ing 1000 miners met at Holly Grove
where many live in tents in the open
fields. That evening they marched
up Paint creek, through the dense
forests of the mountains side to
Mucklow, the stronghold of the
guards, where they were entrenchel
around the mines with machine guns.
The miners were we'll armed and
it is true that they meant desperate
business. A large force of g ards
was in the tipple house The attack
ing forces started two loaded cars
down the incline, intending to kill al!
the guards in the tipple, but the latter
derailed them and escaped, but were
met with steady fire from up the
mountains, where the miners lay in
ambush
They knew the country better than
the guards and fought to greater ad-
vantage. Firing all night, both arm
les kept the valley in a roar. All Fri
day the firing continued and into Sat
urday morning when the arrival of
several companies of militia put an
end to the battle.
Several guards were killed and
more wounded. The miners escaped
with a few scratches.
That same Friday squad of guards |
slipped to Holly Grove, where the
miners wives and children were. The
guards hoped to draw the miners from
the mountains. The guards do not re-
gard women and children as noncom-
They attacked the miners
tent village and forced the women
and children in front of their win
chesters, to wade Paint creek and
aide in the timber.
Five hundred state militiamen are
IN guard in and around Mucklow
low. One hundred more are at Pey-
onia
But from what hear 10000 will not
end this guerrilla wrfare.
The miners American fighting
blood is up. They want revenge for

guards who treated them like dogs,
