HKNEHAN WARNS AGAINST BLOW

Mining Commissioner Secs Loss Of
$2,100,000 Annually to State In
Proposed Withdrawal.

Western Newspaper Uniol News Service.
Denver.-Thomas R. Henehan. state
mining commissioner. has prepared
for submission to the Interior Depart
ment at Washington figures to show
that for the first eleven months OF
1918 nearly IS per cent of the car
notits (radium-bearing ores) shipped
from western Colorado was positively
known to have been treated In the
United States, while another 16 per
cent was shipped to New York without
It's final destination being known.
Only 80 per cent. he points out. was
actually consigned to Europe.
In letter to Secretary Of the In.
terror Lane. protesting against the
governments reported policy to with
draw from entry all lands believed to
contain radlum-bearing ores, Henehan
points out that all carnotite companies
In this state were financed by Amsri-
cans. with the exception OF one com
pany which was financed in Europe.
but majority Of whose directors are
American citizens"
Henehan declares in his letter that
II the government withdraws the ra-
dium-bearing lands Of the public
domain. 1t will impose an irreparable
Injury upon the development Of the en-
tire mineral resources Of Colorado.
"The withdrawal. for example. Of the
carnotite fields of Dolores San MI
guel. Montrose, Mesa and Rio Blanco
countless" he says, would mean loss
Of an annual payroll Of millions OF
dollars to Colorado miners. There are
200 miners engaged In mining car
notite In these counties. When the
metallurgical process has been worked
out. these fields should give employ
ment to not less than 1000 miners. at
an average wage Of 50 per day. This
would create an annual payroll Of 81.

Denver.-The State Supreme Court,
In a majority opinion written by jus
tice White. upheld the right claimed
by the State Tax Commission to arbi-
trarily increase property valuations re-
turned by county assessors.
The decision was delivered in the
mandamus proceedings instituted by
Clair ]. Pitcher. county assessor OF
Denver. and overthrows every conten-
ton made by him.
Justices Garrigues, Gabbert and Hill
dissented in separate opinions. There
is no recall of the decision, as 1t up
holds the constitution of the state, and
the recall may be exercised only when
opinions OF the court overrule the con-
stitution.
The main point made by justice
Whit in the majority opinion, which
was concurred In ny Chief Justice
Musser and Justices Bailey and Scott,
was that
values placed by assessors are not
conclusive and binding on the State
Tax Commission. Values OF property
on which taxes are TO be levied are to
be determined not by county assess
ors alone. but only in conjunction
with other officers and boards provid-
cd for the purpose of correcting errors
and inequalities in valuation as fixed
by the assessor. and to bring all prop
ertr values to the legislative stand
ard
"Whatever confusion has arisen or
may arise In the extension and col
lection OF taxes growing out OF the
questions here involved" the opinion
concludes. must be attributable to the
fact that local public officers have
failed and refused to obey the man
date OF the entire people of the state,
expressed through and directed by
their legislative Will"
The opinion means that the sl01.'
900 100000 added to Denyer's assessed
valuation over the returns made by
Assessor Pitcher must stand.
II also means that the total Of $751;
900. 100000 added TO flfty-seyen other
counties in the state must stand.

FOUND DEAD IN SNOW
KLAssEN, PROSPEROUS DAIRY
MAN, FRoZE TO DEATH.
Victim Had Tried to Ride Horseback
to Homo Near Golden, When
Drift Stalled Wagon.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Arvada, Colo.-The body Of John
Klassen. a dairyman who disappeared
Dec. In the big snow storm on his
way home from Golden. was found
within 15O yards of his house.
The body was almost buried in
snow. Since his disappearance neigh
bors had searched the country sur
rounding his home. which is six miles
north of Golden.
Klassen went to Golden to get a
supply of milk. Because Of the Heavy
snow which fell while he was there
he found 1t impossible to drive home.
He stopped at farmhouse. One OF
his horses was unhitched from the
wagon and he started to make the
trip on the animal bareback.
On the following morning the horse
wandered home. Klassen's dog. how.
ever, failed to return.
On Dec. 16, twelve days later, the
dog was found buried In snow, but
alive. Meantime the search for Klas-
sen was continued.
The theory is that Klassen's horse
stumbled In the snow and threw him
and that the man was so chilled he
could not remount the animal.
Klassen was wealthy. He is sur
vived by widow and four children.

INTERNAL REVENUE AGENT
LOUIS MURPHY SENDS OUT
FORMS FOR RETURNS.

Dubuque. Feb. 7-Louis Murphy, col
lector Of internal revenue in Iowa; has
the following to say apropos the col
lection of the income tax:
! Some 10000 Iowans are this week
in receipt of forms on which to make
report of their income for the ten
months from March 1 to Dec. 81, 1913.
For law about which so much has

norance, and considering the penalties
to attach from failure of taxable per
sons to make returns, and for fraudu-
lent returns the 10000 were we'll en-
gagged in informing themselves regard
ing their duty.
The law contemplates, in the sec
lions relating to the tax on the income
of individuals, as distinguished from
cornorations, that every person recelv'
ing either for himself or others during
the 10 month period referred to, in.
come in excess Of $4,000 from all
sources. except from government,

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
ADVISES FARMERS TO DIsRE.
GARD OTHER DISEASES.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 1.-THE de-
partment of agriculture is in receipt
Of frequent inquiries concerning meth
DDS for distinguishing hog cholera
from other swine diseases. The spec
ialists in hog cholera investigations
answer these inquiries as follows:
1t is estimated that at least 90 per
cent of all deaths of hogs from disease
In the United States are caused by
hog cholera. Therefore. in the case of
any fatal outbreak, the chances are
about nine to one that the cause is
hog cholera.
The symptoms exhibited by hogs,
sick of hog cholera are not sufficiently
distinct from those produced by other
maladies SO that a positive diagnosis
can be made only through a careful
consideration of number Of other
factors in connection with the SYM
toms. From practical standpoint the
important thing is to recognize hog
cholera as soon as possible after its
appearance in a herd in order that
anti-hog cholera serum may be applied
before the disease progresses too far.
Good serum may be depnded upon to
protect we'll hogs, and even to cure a
large percentage of those in the earl.
lest stages of the disease, but it will
not DO Of much avail when used upon
hogs that are already visibly sick.
The following suggestions to farm
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1914-02-10
Great Majority of Sick Hogs
are the Victims of Cholera

ers are offered as an aid to the early
recognition of hog cholera in herd !:
Keep posted concerning the condi-
ton and health of hogs on other farms
in your neighb orhood. Sick hogs on a
neighboring farm are a positive men
ace, for the germs of hog cholera are
easily carried on the feet of men or
animals.
Look over your herd regularly in
order that any sick hogs may be
promptly discovered.
If any hogs in the herd are found to
be "off feed" or appear in anywise
sick, separate them Immediately from
the remainder of the herd, and keep
them and the main herd under close
observation daily. If there is a tend
ency, for the disease to spread in the
herd the trouble is probably hog chol-
era.
When the first symptoms of sick
ness are observed, an immediate
change of feed sometimes corrects the
trouble. This is particularly true OF
swill fed hogs. ....
If there is any tendency for the dis
ease to spread in the herd do not
temporize, but Immediately treat the
herd with serum from the state college
or state live stock sanitary board.
Prompt administration of the serum is
essential to success.
Remember that hog cholera kills
millions of hogs where other diseases
kill thousands. Dismiss from your
mind all thought of such diseases as
lung plague" INFECTIOUS pneumonia
pig typhoid" ETC., for these are gen.
orally merely fanciful designations
given to hog cholera by uniformed
mon
