AFTER MANY YEARS

Again, after forty-three years
have passed, the Constitution of
the United States has been amend
ed. Article Sixteen, permitting
Congress to impose a national in
come tax, has just been adopted by
the necessary three-fourths of the
state Legislatures. The obstacle
known as judicial Interpretation"
placed in the way of this tax by
the Supreme Court in 1894, has at
last been cleared away. Congress
is now free to give the people what
they have been demanding for two
generations and more-a system of
taxation that will lift some of the
burden from the shoulders of the
poor and place it upon the backs
of the rich. Congress should not
lose any time in passing an In
come Tax law Already the coun-
try has waited for it so long that
the delay has been a reproach to
our machinery of government.-La
Follette's.
1t will be remembered that in
1894 congress passed an income
tax The point was raised that the
law was unconstitutional and when
taken to the supreme court the
judges decided, by a majority of
one, that the law was constitutional.
but a rehearing was allowed and
within thirty days one judge had
changed his mind and thus the
opinion was reversed. No one
man ought to be allowed to set
aside law passed by congress or
the state courts.

in at any time to be located on
Globe Creek. 1t is believed that
the excitement will act as an in
ducement for the old Platoro mines
that have lain 30 long, to resume
work, being on the same mineral
belt and only five miles from the
Gilmore camp, the same of Sum-
mitville and an equal distance in
the opposite direction.

garding the Gilmore gold strike,
but as the locality has been 80 in
accurately described | will give the
matter my attention in behalf of
the people contemplating coming
in at the earliest approach of
Spring.
The property in question is
about a mile up the Alamosa river
from the old camp of Sumner, but
by reason of the Alamosa river
wagon road having been washed
out by the floods of 1911, and not
as yet repaired, those going in nat
urally took the round about way
in follow ing the mail wagon over
road with a slight shade over no
road at all. AS the only direct and
practicable route to the new gold
fields is up the Alamosa river, the
bad places will be repaired by the
miners as soon as possible, provid-
ing no assistance may be obtained
from the Counties, and San Luis
Valley towns, making Sumner un-
questionably the center of attrac-
tion in a commercial viewpoint.
Already requests are coming in for
buildings by parties in all branches
of business consistent with the
proper idea of the establishment
of live mining town.
For years, rich float has been
picked up on what was locally
known as Klondyke Mountain, but
it remained for George Gilmore to
make the first discovery of body
of rich gold ore.
Mr.. Gilmore for a number of
years has been associated with the
La Plata district mines, where
prospecting for ore shoots has be-
come science which apparently
stood him we'll in hand. Too much
praise cannot be given him for the
able manner in which he conducted
his important strike. He at once
sent a lot of samples to mining
men of his acquaintance at Cripple
Creek, the results being the means
of an influx of competent men from
that town who were given free ac-
cess to locate in proximity to his
rich find, thereby eliminating the
well worn custom of heralding the
news broadcast among those await
ing an opportunity to crowd in and
monopolize an entire district for
speculative purposes on small
means. Quite a number of the
best mines of Cripple Creek are
therefore, represented in the new
camp which augurs well for it's
immediate development. Able
Judges were sent in to make an in
vestigation of the districts mineral
resources, and the impression de-
rived therefrom gives assurance Of
their early return ready for opera
ton accompanied by many of their
acquaintances. Dulled energy
caused by the paralysis of gold
mining has taken new life. and the
spirit of old time activity is in
evidence all along the canon. Gen
orally speaking it is a telluride
district. Sulphides predominating
near the surface but interspersed
with a telluride giving it values
seldom seen in shallow diggings.
The veins are large and well de-
fined, cropping in many instances.
1t may be well to name some of
the properties that are destined to
be heard from in favorable light
with further development. From

Shutting Out the Japanese.

California purposes not to permit Japanese to own land within the borders of that state. Fifty years ago, when Japan held the self-same attitude towards the rest of the world, when that country would not admit foreign vessels to it's ports, We called that country barbarous. When the ports were opened to an American commander the event went into the histories of the world as a triumph of civilization. Now the country that opened the doors of Japan to the world excludes the Japanese from it's own territory. It is we who are uncivilized in our exclusiveness. And if is an unreas- oning fear that in this particular deciVilizes us. We are afraid of a people who have their work at home cut out for them for a cen tury tO come Japan, in her pres ent economic plight, Is more dan gerous to itself than to us. It stag gers under a monstrOus burden of debt. It has room enough to eX- pand into COrea, and under condi- tions promising better than any thing to be imagined as resulting from an invasion of this country The California proposal, on it's face and with all it's implications, is ab- surd.-The mirror.

Protect the Forests.

In every southern state the for ests, next to the soil itself, are the states greatest natural resources. And in not a single southern state are there any adequate laws for for est protection. Every year the south is losing literally millions of dollars because of forest fires, reck- less cutting, destruction of young forest growth and deforestation of land that should be allowed to re- main in timber The supreme folly of continuing such a state of af- fairs must be apparent to any thinking man; but no action is talk en to remedy it. Nor will any Joe taken until the farmers of the south realize that this loss falls upon them with particular weight and until they demand that their legislators have the business sense to provide for state protection and, if need be state oversight of the forests.
 We are wasting one of our richest heritages with recklessness and a simple-mindedness almost unbe- Hevable of grOwn-up men. Isn't il about time for us to begin to think seriously about the matter?-The Progressive Farmer.

NO ESCAPE FOR AUTOS
Chairman of Highway Commission Says Every One Must Pay Spe-
 cial Tax This Year.

Little Rock. April 24.-"Under the old state law a great many autOmo- bile owners in Arkansas escaped the payment of the state tax on their benzine wagons stated Reuben G. Dye. state land commissioner and chairman of the Arkansas Highway Commission, on Wednesday after noon. but they will not be so for tunate this year. We are going to make every man owning an automo- bile give the state it's due. East year the state collected on only 2,50O automobiles. There are at least 4,50O in the state, and we will collect on every one of them.
 This will give the highway com mission s45O00 to work with, and the automobile owners ought to want to help us raise as much as possible. for them, more than any one else, get the benefit of the good roads"
 When the automobile license books were turned over to the high way commission by the secretary of state, l,7l6 tags had been issued. Chairman Dye then took tag No. 1,717 and placed it on the wall of his office, intending to keep it as a souvenir. Hearing that Earle w. Hodges, secretary of state, had pur- chased an automobile, Chairman Dye pulled the souvenir off the wall and will today present it to the new automobile owner with his compliments, so the secretary will have the last tag issued by him.
