ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY ARE
FEATURES Of PEARCE'S RECORD

was T. w. O'Connor. The records
show an increase of $73,55l.62. in
the relative periods of 1907 and
1905, and of s4O,297.22 in the peri
ods of 1909 and 1910.
In other words Pearce collected
.$l13,S4S.S4 more in 1909 and 1910,
than O'Connor did in 1907 and 1908,
or a grand total of $136,91O.05,
gained in the AZ months Pearce has
been in office.
Divide this total of s136, ,910.05 by
AZ and the average increase per
month is $3.259.7G over the republi-
can brethren who were secretaries of
State for 1905 to 1909. Why. one
months savings effected by Pearce
would almost pay his years salary,
so his retention in Office for another
term would seem more like an in
yestment by the people than anything
else.
But this is only a small part of the
splendid record of Secretary Pearce.
Through his efforts several laws
were placed on the statute books com
pelling corporations to pay their
taxes and file annual statements dis
closing their business standing at the
end of each year. Not alone this,
but several of his recommendations,
all beneficial in the way of reducing
taxation, have been adopted and in
corporated as part of the machinery
of state government.
The present fiat tax law, requiring
corporations operating in or incor-
porated in Colorado, prolific source
of revenue, was his creation. When
Pearce assumed Office he found that
thousands of corporations were de-
linquent in the payment of their fiat
taxes He insisted on the liquidation
of those debts to the state and when
he had finished his work in 1910, he
had increased the collections by SOL =
S49.74. In other words, his prede-
cessor in 1868 gathered in s22,-
056.07. while Pearce collected and
delivered into the treasury SS3,905,-
81. The total fiat tax collections un-
der Pearce in 1909-1910 were $751;
S72.5S as against s94,679.05. total
increase of s63.193.22 in the fiat tax
department alone.
Another revenue-raising law, franz
ed and passed under the direction of
Pearce, was the fee bill for foreign
corporations. Many of those foreign
companies, taking advantage of de-
cision of the U. S. supreme court, had
not paid filing fees on their author
lied capital. Under the Pearce law
they all pay now.
Last February the state treasury
was enriched by over S55. 900. This
was the direct result of law re-
quiring corporations to file annual
reports of their condition or else .be
liable to fine of $1,000. Pearce was
also the father Of this law and en-
forced it with so much success that

in behalf of all the people of the
state.
A man who saves to the state
s136,910.05 in AZ months must Ger.
tainly be credited with more than
the usual quality of business acumen.
In 1905-6. under the administration
of James Cowie, Republican secretary
of state, the total receipts were s277,-
16S.67, while for the same period in
1911 and 1912, under Pearce, they
were s300,229.SS, an increase of
23,061.21.

Secretary of State Pearce, for the
fiscal year ending in 1910, as well

Rockefeller considers the trouble
among the laborers on his place so
serious that he is preparing to have
a permanent police force on his Po-
cantico Hills estate. While attempts
have been made to keep secret the
cause of the trouble 1t is learned that
a discharged workman threatened
to get" Fred Briggs, the superin-
tendent. Briggs is guarded as he
drives around the estate and his
