new BUILDINGS AT
INDIAN School
INSTITUTION AT ALBUQUERQUE
is BETTER FITTED TO
DO ITS WORK

Albuquerque, Oct. 1.-Two new
buildings are occupied and third is
being made ready for occupancy at
the Indian school. Chief of the new
structures is the shop structure, in
which the classes in carpentry, paint
ing, blacksmithing, shoeing, harness
making, tailoring and drafting are
taught. That building is 140 by 36
feet.
The other new structure occupied
is double cottage for employees. The
domestic science building, in which
cooking, sewing and the like are to
be taught to the girls, is being pre-
pared for occupancy.
Those buildings were all built with
last years appropriation. Plans are
being made now for buildings to be
constructed with tho money granted
by congress this year. The assembly
hall to be put up will be patterned
after the auditorium in the new city
high school and win seat just about
the same number, The gymnasium
addition is to measure 112 by 20 feet.
The registration at the school is
now 412 and 25 more pupils are ex-
pected The congressional appropria.
tion was on basis of about 400, and
Superintendent Reuben Perry has
been compelled to refuse admittance
to more than 60 boys and girls. They
will have to go to reservation schools

SUGGEST MARKET
FOR FACTORY
GOODS
AD MEN SAY AMERICANS CAN
USE MOST OF THE ARTICLES
MADE HERE

Detroit, Mich, Oct. lat the con-
yertion of the Affiliated Advertising
Clubs of America, which is to assem-
hle in this city tomorrow for a ses-
sion of three days, the movement
fathered by w S. Shryer, of Detroit,
to develop the American market to the
fullest extent in lieu of depending
upon the development of South Amer
ican trade to take the place of the
commerce lost through the war In
Europe, will be considered at length.
The movement is backed by many of
the advertising clubs, and by large
number of manufacturers.
Mr.. Shryer, who recently returned
from a trip to South America and Eu-
rope, says South America simply can
not take the surplus of exports re-
sulting from the present war, and that
American manufacturers must deve-
lon the American markets. He says,
too, they must supply America with
products heretofore imported from
abroad. In this way, the outlet for
manufactured products will be made
permanent, for the depression in Eu-
rope is bound to continue long enough
for American manufacturers to be
come so thoroughly established in
their new ventures that they cannot
be dislodged, as they might possibly
be in South America by an ultimate
renewal of European competition.
The convention will be held under
the auspices of the Adcraft Club AM
the Detroit Board of Commerce. In
vitations have been extended to ev
cry business man in Michigan. Dele
cations from Buffalo, Rochester, Chi
cago, Cleveland, Grand Rapids, Toledo
Cincinnati, ST. Louis and other cities
have promised attendance.
Prominent among those who are
scheduled to address the convention
are Cyrus H. X. Curtis of Philadel
phia, James Kelly of Chicago and the
publishers or other representatives o
numerous other leading newspaper
of the country, together with a larg'
number of representative manufactur
ers, merchants and advertising agents

ated in conjunction with the regular

and extends from the business center
of Seattle to the coal mining and man

chase of the line permits the city to
connect the northern and southern
divisions of it's municipal system,
which hitherto have not reached the
business district. The Reton line has
been in litigation for may years and
recently has been conducted under a

TAX Commission
HANDS US A
Lemon
ORDERS INCREASED VALUATIONS
ON PROPERTY ASSESSED
AT FULL VALUE

The final report or the state board
of equalization, copies of which have
just been received in Las Vegas,
shows an increase of 80 per cent on
San Miguel county grazing lands of
value of 50 and less. and an increase
of 10 per cent on all merchandise as
sessments in the county.
1t is a law as well as an invariable
custom to assess merchandise and all
unsecured personal property at its
cash value, cash value meaning the
price it would bring at forced sale.
Foreseeing that the state board would
probably be dissatisfied with the re-
turns made by the county assessor,
the county commissioners, at the time
they were sitting as county board
of equalization, put fully 80 per cent
of the personal property of business
houses in this county Oh an inventory
basis, or the actual cost value. The
raise of 10 per cent authorized by the
state board means that merchants are
to be compelled to pay taxes on their
stock on basis of 10 cents on the
dollar more than the stock cost in
the first place.
A common way OF expressing the
cash value of merchandise for assess
J meat purposes is, what it will bring
under the hammer" In this way a
basis is established for balancing the
equation between real estate, where
1t is assessed at valuation less than
the market price, and the stock in
trade of merchants, which at any
sale, forced or otherwise, except over
the counter in the regular course OF
business, seldom brings first cost.
The state board of equalization W
its arbitrary action in raising tht
valuation of merchandise in this coun
ty, sets aside the careful labor of tn,
county board of commissioners, which
had already gone as far as 1t is pos
sible to go by raising the valuation
to inventory value.
Another matter contemplated b
the state equalizers that should b
understood by the tax payers is it
intention to tax mortgages at thei
face value and to tax the land o
which the membranes stand also a
its full value. If ranch valued a
$4,000 has mortgage against it 70
$4,000 1t is the purpose of the boar,
to have the land assessed at its full
value and the mortgage at its face
value, so that the property will b,
paying taxes on total of $4,000
This is merely scheme, apparently
