When Buffalo Bill first launched
his show the experienced men In
the business laughed at him and
said that it vas a wild scheme but
in less than six months he was
making nor money than Barnum.
The show toured Europe several
times and was as successful there
as on this side of the water.
Just how much Col Cody has left
of the millions of dollars he has
earned in the show business is pro-
blematical. OF late years the pro-
fits have not been so large as FORM

Gus old scout has lost considerable
sums in poor investments. But
those who are in the best positions

ed by the disasters that have over
taken the show that bears his
name: 1t is generally believed that
he is we'll liked financially and in
no danger of coming to want in his
old age.

For some time Indians have come

Gated and in some instances MAX
ing nuisance Of themselves. 1t is a
serious offense to sell or give liq-
uor to Indians but Notwithstanding
strict federal laws. the illicit traffic
has gone on for a long tina. The
violators of the law are both
shrewd and secretive and for a
long time the officers have been un-
able to obtain any clew as to who
was responsible for the Indians
getting booze. But within the
past few days an unexpected mine
of information has come into the
possession of the officers and it is
said thew have what appears to be
positive evidence against certain
parties in Elko. The evidence now
in hand and the rest expected to
be obtained may likely be turned
over to the Federal authorities
and prosecutions begun. One In
dian is said to have told who was
selling booze to the Indians and
the following of this trail is soon
expected to hear startling results

ROOSEVELT May
AGAIN BECOME A
REPUBLICAN

2-The privilege Of monopoliz.
ing land
3-The privileges of patents;
4-The credit privilege;
6-The privilege derived from
indirect taxation.
The remedy for the first, accord
ing to this new doctrine, is to abol.
ish private ownership If public
highways. such as the railroads
telegraph and telephone lines and
all public utilities. For the second
remedy is to exempt from taxation
everything but land and tax the
use value of land SO heavily that
the unearned increment is confs-
Gated by the people.
A novel remedy is proposed for
the third. The doctrine recognizes
the right of the inventor to the
full reward due him from society
for his invention. Today it is as
serted he often gets nothing and
the public goes without benefit be-
cause of the suppression Of valu-
able inventions by corporations.
The new proposition is to abolish
monopolistic ownership of patents
and to allow anyone to manufacture
any patented device by payment
of a royaltyto the inventor.
1t is also proposed that the gov
eminent conduct the banking Of
the country thus taking the control
of credit from private hands.
Finally this remarkable propa-
ganda would abolish all forms of
indirect taxation such as the tariff,
internal revenue taxes and license
taxes on the ground that the effect
of such taxation is to farm out the
collection of taxes to individuals
whose tendency is to become extor-
tionate.
The significant feature Of this
program lies in Special Privilege
No 2 ana the remedy therefor. In
other words Pinchot and his follow
eTs have adopted the Single Tax
philosophy and hope to make it the
fundamental principle on which
the new Progressive party will rest.
Up to the present the Single Tax
movement had had no party. Most
of the believers of the Henry
George docti ines including his own
son are Democrats. IL the Pinchot
program is adopted by the Pro,
gressive party it will put q differ,
ent complexion on national poll,
tics. True such a revolutionary
movement would not hope for any
quick success.
