that documentary evidence shows that
the rising was directed as much
against the Filipino politicians now

Were Failures in Life.

The revolution of Madero was made
up from u class of men who had been
failures in life. During a period of
prosperity of some twenty years the
individual who did not make money in
Mexico and who did not see his affairs
prosper could only blame himself for
his complete lack of ability or his
overplus of vices and the lack of de-
sire to work All that class of am
bilious but incompetent men Joined in
the revolution of Madero. which seemed
to all sensible men "A crazy movement
During the administration of Ma
dcro $500. .00o, 900 Squandered in
Mexico, and as natural result there
were many men of very little moral
worth who Joined in the movement in
order to share in the spoilS. Those who
were actuatcd by other motives were
very few, indeed.

and finest furniture inquired Repre-
sentative Mondell.
'He Could Not Know"

Necessarily he does not know, and
the gentleman from Wyoming knows
he could not know replied Mr.. Page.
Il suggested to him that even the
house at 1920 Massachusetts avenue
might contain nothing more than a din
ing table and two chairs, and vet from
the outward appearance his employees
might guess that it contained $4,000
worth of personal property.
Under any such system as in vogue
in this Office of the assessor of the
District of Columbia on personal prop
erty the result must necessarily be
that those who are overassesSed COM
plain, and those who are underassessed
pay the amount they are assessed
without mentioning the fact that they
have more.

Small Force Excuse.

Il want to say said Mr.. Page, speak
ing of the assessor, that this gentle
man gave as an excuse to me for not
doing certain things l suggested to
him that he did not have the force;
that his office was not equipped SO
that he could do these things"
The chairman of the District appro-
priation subcommittee then recited the
number of employees in that office. and
delivered the opinion that the force is
sufficient. Representative Page COM
pared the business of assessing and
collecting in the District with the same
functions in the North Carolina county
from which he comes, where it is done
by the sheriff and one deputy at
small cost, something like $500. The
salaries of the assessors once mere, he
said total $3.50, of which S15.SO0
goes for personal property assessment.
Charges Lax Administration.
In conclusion. Mr.. Page said:
THE gentleman in this House who
supposes that the method of taxation
and the assessment of these taxes and
the collection in the District Of Colum-
bia is ideal has another guess coming.
l venture the assertion that there is
not another political jurisdiction in the
world that is as faulty in it's adminis-
trsstion in this respect as is the Dis
trict of Columbia, nor is there another
place where there are many people
subject under the law to assessment
and levy of taxes who escape alto
gether any taxation"

ernment it was the idea of the opposi-
tion to place in the presidency Gen.
Bernardo Reyes, who was man of
recognized ability, a soldier and a man
OF talent and education. But unfortu-
nately he died during the struggle, and
Gen: Huerta was enabled to take pos
session of the government in a fash
ion which every one knows.
Those who thereupon rebelled
against Huerta were more or less the
same class who had helped Madero in
the first revolution; that is to say the
failures, the incompetent and the vi
cious, with very rare exceptions.
These are the men who today are
lutte masters of lives and properties
They are not soldiers who are fighting
for cause, but simply bandits who
wish to enrich themselves at all costs,
condition which they have succeed
ed in attaining, and they have an in
satiable thirst for blood. They do not
fight. but when another band comes to
attack a city which they have in their
possession, they cowardly evacuate the
city, assa assinating and sacking 1t be-
fore their departure, and finally aban-
don 1t to the new arrivals, who shortly
thereafter follow the same methods.
Indians Much Worse Off.
1T is believed in this country that
this revolutionary movement is from
the lower people. the Indians. in order
to acquire land and earn their bread,
and this is the greatest error of all.
The Indians are today in a thousand
times worse condition than they were
before. They have been robbed of
their working oxen. of their cows, of
their other live stock; their grain, seed
for sowing and, in fact, everything
they have had.
'.They cannot get work. for the large
properties and plantations have been
conf1scated. sacked, burned and aban-
doned. This coming year will see fam

Has Life Tenure.

This tax assessor is named by the
Commissioners of the District of Co.
lumbia, and I wonder how many mem
bers in this House are aware of the
fact that he is named for life, upon
good behavior, that there is specific
clause in the law. provision that he
cannot be removed except for malfeas-
ance in office, neglect of duty or inef-
ficiency. That does not apply only to
the assessor. but to his assistants as
well.
Possibly I ought not to relate here
conversation that 1 had with the
gentleman over the telephone. but this
led me to ask this gentleman why he
did not place in the hands of the own
ers of personal property in the Dis
trict of Columbia blank inventory
upon which they might fill out under
oath what they had and file it with
| him so far as the personal property
was concerned. I asked him if he knew
of any other assessor anywhere on
earth who did not undertake to place
in the hands of the people whom they
were taxing an opportunity at least to
file an inventory of their taxable prop
erty- He freely admitted that he knew
that the Treasury sent out such a

the suit of Enid Shaw against August
Dammrow, receiver of The Iowa. &
Omaha short Line railroad, the Deni-
son woman seeking to recover funds
put into the road in connection with
the Atlantic Northern & Southern deal

Enid Shaw is a daughter of former
Governor and Secretary Of the Treas
ury Leslie NJ Shaw, who is said to
have sunk small fortune IN the A. N.
& S. road in an attempt to float bonds
in the east and In England to re-
habilitate the line, which has been the
bone of contention between two big in
terests which are fighting for control
of Iowa traffic in the district covered
by the Atlantic road.
The entire forenoon N district court
was occupied with the task Of selecting
n jury and opening statements of coun-
sci were made at the afternoon ses-
sion.
The case is expected to occupy much
of the present week. Governor Shaw is

COUNTRY HIGHWAYS.

ROADS WITH STREETS

Highways Entering Outskirts OF City
Paved Portion to Be Sixteen feee

Sioux City. March 24.-Sioux City
will pave approximately twenty-five
miles of streets this year according to
estimates of city officials. rms IN
cludes seventeen and one-half miles
of paving necessary to complete the
five leading highways into the city.
The paving bill passed by the house
and previously passed by the senate
of the state legislature, gives to Sioux
CITY and other towns authority to levy
special assessments on abutting prop
erty to pay for this work. The cities
also must bear part of the burden OF
costs for paving.
The five highways which are pro-
posed for paving are: Perry Creek
road. Broken Kettle road. Correction
Vile road. Big Sioux road and the
Leeds road. Paving Of these roads. as
far as Sioux City is concerned, Will
extend only to the county lines. Posi-
bly,, in the future, adjoining counties
will take up the roads and either con-
tinue them with paving or maca
denied material. The total cost OF
paving the five roads is estimated at
1927, 500.
To Advertise For Bids.
The city clerk will soon be instructed
by the council to advertise fer bids for
the work. E. o. Wesley, head OF the
department of streets. did not know
whether work on all i've roads would
be commenced at the same time, or
whether the roads would be taken up
one at a time and pushed to completion
before commencing on another. There
seems to be difference of opinion
among both the council body and the
Real Estate Association over TINS
Ipoint. George c. Call, president or the
association. is inclined IN favor the
plan for concentrating all the work on
one road and then taking up the 9TH
ers one at time.
With every indication of material, as
cement sand and asphalt, being un-
usually cheap this spring. the city
council may decide to insist upon paw
ing all the roads at the same time.
The paved roads, according TO Mr..
Wesley are to be sixteen feet wide. NO
curbs are to be used and in passing
lover hills, the paving will slope from
both sides towards the middle so as to
permit surplus water 70 flow off with
out causing washaways along the sides
! of the paving Very little grading will
be necessary on any Of the roads, Mr..
! Wesley said.
