commenting upon the Enterprise
article of last week regarding the tax
schedule for last year. one OF our
readers makes the emphatic asser-
Ton that the taxation is away beyond
the unit of the law. and offers a
timely suggestion which may lead to
a tull exposure OF the most iniQui-
tous tax II carried out. For this rea-
son the Enterprise gives first page
prominence to the ca tion In
the hope that our readers may give
the proposition the attention 1t de-
serves:
Under the new law the limit OF
cent increase. Disrcgarding this
law. our commissioners have raised
the county levy more than so per
cent over 1912. The Is per cent in
crease would have given them an ad-
dittonal sum to spend amounting to
lblT5, which, II seems to us. would
nave Deen sufilcient. IL now appears
that the people will have to pay over
1912 the enormous sum of more than
$4,000 additional.
Upon inquiry We find that the
county judges office. the sheriffs
office. the county clerks office and
the treasurer's office are more than
Self-supporting. We would therefore
wonder what becomes of this enor-
nous amount OF money. We believe
II Is time that a taxpayers league In
Otrro county be formed. regardless
OF politics, for the purpose, and no
other of looking after tax matters
la learning how this large sum OF
money is being disposed OF. Rocky

". O. skinner says that In his
opinion. the last demonstration train
vas the most successful that has
ever been run in Southern Colorado
The four subjects. dairying. silos,
forage crops and diseases of hogs
and cattle. were subjects that the
farmers OF the Arkansas valley were
deeply Interested in.
The total attendance on this train
Nas over 5000. as compared with
about 1900 last year. showing an
Increase of about 40 per cent In the
ltiondancc. Colorado Springs had
the heaviest attendance of any town
on the trip. Lamar being second.
Fowler third. and Canon city fourth
one thing that was especially gra-
flying was the fact that at the very
snail stations We had a large attend
ance. For instance. Hasiy. where We
have no agent. there were 200 peo-
