WOULD ASK UNCLE
SAM TO TAKE OUR
DRAINAGE BONDS

The final completion of the Hunter
drainage district several miles west
of this city is the object of plan
which Shepherd b. Hutchinson eN-
poets to submit to the government
drainage investigators who recently
spent several days in the city.
Two years ago the drainage dis
trict at Hunter school district was
organized. bonds were voted and all
the initial engineering work was
completed by Dalton G. Miller, of the
government Investigations. Because
of the fact that the bond issue of
$6,0 was too small to tempt the
buyers the issue is unsold and no
further work has been done on the
district.
Mr.. Hutchinson suggests that the
government simply take over these
6 per cent bonds and do the work
in the district. If experimental op-
portunities appeal to the federal in
vestigators of the department of ag-
riculture no more fertile field for
tests in reclaiming Grand valley seep
soil could be found.
Mr.. Hutchinsoni proposes to sub
nit the plan to the government ex-
perfS tnitthe proper bureau and
hopes that they will evolve some
method for the completion of that
drainage district. About 400 acres
are included in the district, of which
160 need reclamation.

NEW RAILROAD
FOR PR|CE,UT.

Price, Utah, June 14.-Still an
other railroad for Price and eastern
Utah is the information that comes
to this city. The builders are the
Miner corporation and capitalists
closely connected with it. Surveyors
have been in the field now for some
time, running lines, and it is eX-
pected that public announcement
will be made as TO plans within
very short time.
The Miner corporation several
years ago acquired through the loca-
tions of Samuel Ii. ellison and others
several thousands of acres of coal
lands in Carbon county. to the north
and east of Price and up and down
Willow creek, which empties into
the Price river at Castle Gate On
account of entanglements with the
government the plans of the corpora
tion was delayed until now, when it
appears ready to go ahead and do
things.
The proposition is to cross the di-
vide at Soldier Summit, little north
of the track of the Denver 4 Rio
Grande, an come into Kenilworth
with a grade that is said to be prac-
teal. From Kenilworth the road is
planned to run to Price, where con-
nections will be made with both the
Castle Valley. the Southern Utah and
the Denver & Rio Grande systems.

ment between the state board of
equalization and the assessors of the
state all assessments have been made
on a basis of one-third actual cash
value This has been in violation of
the statute, however, which pro-
vides that the assessment will be
made on full valuation and the COM
mission VIII act on this basis in the
future. The effect of this will be to
reduce the figures of the levy, but
to increase the actual taxes paid by
the people by considerable amount
This will be effected in two ways:
First, the exemption of $500 on per-
sonal property allowed to heads of
families will be on fiat basis of
$500. instead of actually being $500
as at present when only one-third
of the actual value is considered.
With the decrease in the exemption
will come the tripled tribute to the
state institutions for which specific
levies are made by statute.
To illustrates; Mesa county last
year had an assessed valuation of
more than sS.O0O,0OO. The state
demands a levy of l 1916 mills for
the general revenue. Next year
with no normal increase in the actu-
al property values of the county,
the assessed valuation will be S25,-
100000. Instead of giving the state
s 900, as is now the case, the
county will pay over into the treas
ury of the state no less than S45. 900
There are no new demands which
justify this tribute to the state. but
the law which directed an assessment
on full cash value failed to make cor.
in II
levies for institutional maintenance
Take, as another instance. the
School of Mines. With levy of Ia
of mill 1t gets sl.627 from Mesa
county. Next year it will get 81 :.
600, or even more with the nationa
increase in property values. Ponder
the fact that this corresponding in
| crease comes from every county il
the state, and then ina CINE the high

an appropriation three times bigger
than anything ever received before

Besides this it cannot be denied
that next year the taxable values OF

Increased. The high line canal con.

Henry E. Brennick will not coach the

cording to a statement issued today by
Manager Charles P. Maloney. The for
mer Harvard player has been in COM
munication with Manager Maloney for
the past two weeks and wrote yester-
day that he would be unable to accept
the situation at Brookland this season.
Manager Maloney Is now in touch
with Mccarthy, the old Harvard player,
and Harry McDevitt, quarterback Of
the 1907 Dartmouth eleven, and it Is
likely that Mccarthy will receive the ap-
pointment, although a local man may
be considered. In regard to the report
that Fred Nielsen, former coach of two
Georgetown elevens, was to be at the
Catholic University this year, Manager
Maloney said that Nielsen had not been
considered.
1t is more than likely that Mccarthy
will be seen at Brookland in charge
of the Red and Black eleven. Mccarthy
halls from Fall River and has had ex-
perience coaching prep school elevens
since his graduation from Harvard. Nc

an old Dartmouth player and Is located
at Florence, Mass.
