or population by leaps and bounds;
it was pretty much at = stAndstill.
In that time nothing exceptional
took place; there were no labor DIFF
fieulties requiring unlocked for ex-
penditures. The increase in conduct |
ing the states affairs was due to the |
state administration and the state
machine.
And there is very little to show for
this unheard of extravaganza. No
great buildings, no permanent i'm
provements costing tithe Of the in
creased expenses are to be found,
either in Denver or at the state in
stitutions outside of Denver. The
money went into other channels.
In the last four or five years di-
rect taxation was increased enor-
mously, and every year indirect tax
alton had something added in the
form of special license fees for ex-
amining this and that. The state
was filled with inspectors and tax col
leetors.
A year ago it was discovered that,
despite all efforts to add to the bur-
den Of the taxpayer, the state treas
ury was empty-bankrupt in fact.
Then followed the agitation for a
full cash valuation" assessment by
the partisan state tax commission.
1t was confessed that this revo-
lutionary method would add 15 per
cent to the state taxes, but at the
same time it was contended this other
increase was necessary to save state
institutions from bankruptcy!
In the first place there is no call
for any increase, but there is uni
versal demand for a material de-
crease in state and local taxation un-
til such time as Colorado can get
upon its feet; and in the second place
if there is to be an increase it should
be equitable. Instead thereof Dem
yer is being made the goat" by
the Link tax commission, backed by
the state administration.
Some years back the state board of
equalization determined that Dem
ver's railroad assessments, amount
ing to S15,000,000 per annum, should
be scattered over the state on a
mileage basis Some sparsely set
tied county couple of hundred miles
from Denver is receiving more from
the freight yards and other Denver
property of the railroads than is Den
ver itself.
And now comes the state tax COM
mission to break the back of Denver
with an addition to the local asses
sor's assessment of more than $780,
100000 This figure is not to be lev
led upon the corporations, but upon
the smaller taxpayers. The corpora
lions were dealt with separately,
earlier in the year-this greater in
crease is to fall upon the household
er and the business house.
The time has come for an upris-
ing and protest that will count for
something against this tax imposition
upon the whole state and against the
rank discrimination being practiced
upon Denver, that has had to bear
more than its just share for years
past.-Denver Times.
1t tickles The Herald to note the
wall of Denver papers and Denver
people. Let the Denver chamber of
commerce take the matter up. The
citizens of Denver are largely re-
sponsible for the condition that con-
fronts them. They shouted and vot-
ed for Honest John" and his reform
legislatures and now they, with 9th
er taxpayers, have to settle the bill.
It's awful and will keep up until the
voters side track such reformers as
Shafroth, Thomas and few other
Democratic lead aders

Dominican Election Problem.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The presi-
Dental elections which will be held
in the republic of Santo Domingo next
Monday are causing this government
no little anxiety. There is no attempt
to conceal the fact that trouble is ex-
pected, but if it is necessary for the
United States to send officials to "ob-
serve" the elections, it is plain to sec
what future dealings with Latin
American countries are expected to
be. There are many American farmers
in Santo Domingo whose interests pro-
badly would suffer in the event of a
serious outbreak as result of the
elections.

Combinations in Suits.
AS for the suits, combination ones
with skirts and coats of different ma
terials and colors had the most en-
tries. One of the most stunning was
a skirt of brocaded black satin with
coat of Russian green velvet banded
and collared in sable. 1t was cut
away coat of hip length but when 1t
comes to the length of coat you can
go the limit either way from an Elton
to martingale and still be correctly
cloaked.
A few in the maiden class came for
ward with a new couture the most sal
lent feature of which was a bunch of
hair pulled down on the forward la
forelock. This seemed going it bit
too far and as settled fashion it will
no doubt come a cropper. Possibly
the forelock wearers had been mixing |
their horseshow drinks, horsesnecks. |
and ponies of brandy, doncherknow,
and it had gone to their heads.

The Very Latest.

NEW IORh, Lee. l5.-Oue OF the uH-
mistakeable signs of the coming of
Christmas is the incoming trans-Atlan-
tic steamers. They are crowded with
Americans who have been shooting,
motoring and enjoying themselves in
various ways in Europe, but who want
to spend Christmas at home. The rush
really began this week, practically ev-
cry incoming ship having large num-
Der of distinguished passengers. Among
them was Col. VIM. G. Kable, who has
been investigating military affairs in
Italy for the past two months. He
brought with his twenty-six Pekinese
dogs for the New York dog show.

New School Plan.
There isn't going to be any delay by
the Churchill administration in putting
into effect the changes in the course OF
study in elementary schools believed to |
be demanded and upon which the COM
mittee on course of study of the Board
of education and the board of superin-
tendents have been at work for the past
year. The principle underlying the pro-
posed revision is that the school must
recognize the fact in making course
of study that the majority of children
will not stay beyond the sixth year.
Therefore, the instruction in the var
ous subjects will be so planned as to
give a good foundation knowledge of
hem during the first six years of
schooling and to provide in the later
years of the course for the selection by
he pupils of one of three alternative
,ourses-academic commercial, or
