eral Frank w. Clancy In an opinion
found occasion 10 disagree or dissent
from an opinion Of DiHtrict Attorney
u. d. Tiftman. OF Hillsboro, relative
10 the disposition to be made of an
insane woman at Elephant Butte.
General Clancy holds that II the wom-
an was insane when she came 70 New
Mexico from Mexico, then the federal
Immigration authorities should be no
titled so that she might be deported
TO her native country. II, however, II
cannot be established that the woman
wna insane when she came 70 New
Mexico, then Il is up to the state or
the local authorities 10 take care OF
her even though che does live In

Santa Te, Sept 2.-The Santa Fe
Woman's club held its first meeting
yesterday for the 1914-1915 sea-
son. Mrs. William II. Pope presiding.
Miss Alice c. Fletcher of Washington,
ID. c., noted scientist and woman's
club leader, addressed the club on the
early womans club movements in
New York, New England and WASH
ington, which grew out of the sani-
tary commission work during the civil
war. The founding of the sorosis,
the convening Of the first congress Of
noted women and other episodes in
the feministic movement were recalled
with many an Interesting and iiiunin-
ing anecdote. Miss Fletcher was TO
the fore in the work that has resulted
In the modern women's clubs and ac-
tivities and, therefore. her address
was authoritative and interesting.

with the provision In the federal con-

ion No. 1894, at page scG of the opn-

latlng to the killing Of stock by rail-
roads continued In force within the

dlction to the United states. The court

ment OF the state extended over the
reservation, and It's legislation was
operative therein, except so far as
the land. as an inslrumentality OF the
general government may have ex-
cepted il from such legislation.
As to the collection OF the road tax.
can see no reason to doubt that the
men employed az the dam are liable
for the tax IL they reside within the
district There might be amons them
some persons whose regular resi-
dence may be IN some other part OF
the state. or even outside of the
state, and they would not lose that
residence BY temporary employment
by the government IN the work al
the Dam. The law imposes this tax
upon each able-bodied man and
makes Il payable 10 the road authori-
ties of the district wherein he re-
sides. and these men cannot claim
ANY exemption on the ground that
the laws Of the state do not extend
over the property of the United

LAND IS TAXABLE
AFTER ISSUANCE
OF CERTIFICATE


Santa Fe. Sept. 2.--In a letter ad-
dressed to Alexander Ballantyne. OF
Taiban. Attorney General Frank w.
Clancy today rendered an important
decision In regard to the validity of
assessments OF land for taxation after
the issuance Of the final certificate to
the homesteader and before the issu-
ance of the patent.
Mr.. Clancy's letter is as follows:
Mr.. Alexander Ballantyne, Taiban,
New Mexico.
Dear Sr:--I have received youp
letter of the first instant asking. In
substance. as to the validity of ASSESS
ment Of land in 1912 for which the
final certificate had been issued TO q
homesteader, while the patent was not
issued until October "a. 1918.
My attention was first called to this
question In November. 1910. and upon
examination of the decisions of the
supreme court of the United States
found that the validity of the taxa
tion of lands. after final proof was
made. and before the issuance of pat
ent. was upheld by the courts. The
federal courts have repeatedly held
that when the settler has made his
final proof and received his certifi-
cate, the ownership of the land
changes and that he could then sell
and convey the land with perfectly
good title. This being so, It logically
follows that the land would then be
taxable.
Practically, however, we all know
that until the patent has been actually
issued. the entryman is at a disad-
vantage and cannot sell or mortgage
the property on as good terms as he
can after he actually has the patent.
This so impressed my mind that
saw to 1t that the tax law of 1913 CON
tanned a provision that land entered
under the public land laws should not
be taxable until after the patent had
issued. This law. however, which was
approved March Is, 1918, had no re-
troactive effect. and would not invali-
date a legal assessment which had
been made in the year 1912. al
though II might prevent the Same
property from being assessed in 1918
until after the patent had been issued.
Yours truly.
FRANK w. CLANCY,
Attorney General.

With District Attorney Tit

handed down today by Attorney GEN
Ieral Frank W. Clancy. one holds that

county, the opinion of District At
torney f. ID. Tittman to the contrary
Notwithstanding and that the men
living on the government land are

now write with reference 20 the sub
ject matter of Dr. Glvens letter.
DR.. Given encloses with his letter
q copy or another from District At
Itorney Tittmann. which takes the po-
stion in substance. that the territory
Of the Elephant Butte dam appears
TO be now under the jurisdiction of
the United States by virtue of an act
passed by the last legislature, which
Is printed as Chapter ~ OF the laws
OF 1912. and that on this account II
might be Illegal to apportion funds
TO the school district In which the
dam is located on the basis OF the
children at the dam. The consequence
of this position would be as DR. Civ
en- clearly shows-to deprive some
thing over 500 children OF any public
school facilities. Dr. Given also re-
fers to the refusal OF the men at the
dam to pay the SO road tax upon the
ground that they were outside OF the
Jurisdiction Of the county SO far az
