COLORADO WILL GET

iorest-reserve area of Colorado bears to
Inc total area of the National forests.
On this assumption. at least 500. 600 q
year will be available for road construc-
ton in Colorado. or total of 81, 900, 600
within the next ten years.
The advantage and, in fact, necessity
Of federal aid for the systematic con-
struction and maintenance of the high
ways in this country has become so uni
VERBALLY recognized that there is no
doubt whatever but what congress will
continue to appropriate at least S25. .O00,-
900 annually after the year 1920 to aid
the states in the construction of roads.
This makes it certain that, under the
frst superintendent provided for in this
bill, Colorado will receive not less than
s., 472, 900 during the next ten years.
With the increasing appreciation of the
value of good roads. congress is more
likely to augment rather than to reduce
this appropriation. By adding to this
sum the A.OOU,Uoo that Colorado VIII
receive during the next decade from the
special appropriation which section of
this bill makes for forest-reserve roads,
it 10 safe to say that Colorado will re-
ceive direct federal aid to the extent of
at least 81, 472. 600 in cash during the
next ten years.
With this help from Uncle Sam, Colo
rado can and will build system of main
highways and branch roads that will
not only be q credit to our state but to
this entire country. and will indeed make
our Centennial state the Motorists
Mecca, the Playground of the Nation
and the Scenic Roof Garden of the
World.

A New Revenue

by Edward kenting, Cong.
Third Colo Dietrirt.I

Washington, u. C.. July 10
The new reveuur bilI framed by
democratic Ways and Means
cOmmlttee and passed this week
by a democratic house oi repre-
sentatives, is one OF the great
triumph- OF the Wilson admins
tratIUn.
II provided the money needed

parrduc-s' program Every dol
lar viii come from the purses OF

making the cOntribution-the
very rich men of this country.
An increase in the income tax
will produce more than 500
OOO. 900. An Inheritance tax Is
expected TO produce SIT. 100000
the first year and Sj4, 900, 900
each year thereafter and tax

and not one dollar levied on the
necessities OF life.

millionaire.
Yet. 1t was not until the advent
of the Wilson administration
that any serious attempt was
made to equalize the burden by
compelling wealth to bear some
thing like it's Just share. The
masses OF the people stIl contrib
ute to the support of the govern
ment through tariff and internal
revenue taxes. In fact they are
paying practically a. much per
capita as they did in former
wears. but the democrats have
refused to add to those burdens
by piling on the cost OF "Prepar-
edness
That item will be taken care Of
by the income, Inheritance and
hamilton taxes. As | have ex-
plained the munitions tax will
end with the war but the income
and Inheritance taxes are perma-
nent institutions-at least, they
will remain on the statute books
( If the democrats remain in power.
/ What the republicans would do
with them, if they should secure
control of the government, do
not know. n
/ Judge Hughes, the republicnA
candidate for president, is earn
estly opposed TO both taxes, and
as governor of New York he
urged the defeat OF the income
tax. He has not indicated that
he has changed his mind.
During thelast year the income
tax produced Sl24 100000. As
amended it will bring into the
Treasury during the fiscal year
at least 1925, 100000. All OF
this will be paid by those whose
net incomes exceed $4,000 for
married men and $4,000 for sin
gle men.
The records show there are 1I3
individuals in this country whose
income exceed S5OO,OO0 a year
4 Their gross income for 1914 was
/ S246, 1927 900, and under the
new law they will be compelled to
contribute II per cent OF that
staggering amount or about
$40, 900, 900 to the support OF
the goverpmentwhich safeguards
their lives and property Is that
unreasonable?
II they lived in England they
would pay three or four times as
much.
The new inheritance tax law is
really d very mild statute. 1t
will not affect estates with a net
value of less than $4,000. The
trainers did not feel that it was
necessary to oppress widows and
orphans in order to support the
government, SO they made very
generous allowance for theil
maintenance.
The tax is graduated from one
to five per cent, the larger
amount being levied on estate:
above s5,OOO,OOO. Some idea
of the number of large fortune:
in this country may be gathered
from the fact that even this med
crate tax will'produce, according
to the experts $54.0 100000.
$50 far as the Inheritance ta>
is concerned" said Democratic
Leader Kitchin during the debat,

COMMISSION TO DECIDE.
Supreme Court Of Baseball to Consider
Appeal From "AW Tearney.


Appeal From SAP 1earney.
The Rock Island territorial fight is
now in the hands of the national base
ball commission. and it is unlikely that
further steps of a decisive character
will be taken either by the Three-1
league or the Central association until
a decision is handed down. which Will
very likely be within the next few
days.
President al" Tearney has carried
his appeal 10 the commission, accord
ing to message sent by Mr.. Tearn<y
to the Rock Island baseball club. The
message, sent from Chicago follows:
Entire matter now in commission
hands VIII be but a few days until
we get a ruling
The dispute, for the present at least
is out of the hands of the national as
ISOLATION, which recently ruled ad-
versely to the contentious OF the
Three-I league Tearney has made
good his threat He has carried his
appeal to the national commission. On
Jan. 3D. he wired Secretary Farrell,
secretary of the national association,
that he insisted upon a fair interpre-
tation of the constitution" His part
ing shot was as follows: IF YOU re-
fuse to act, l am going to the COM
mission
Evidently Tearney was of the opinion
that five days were sufficient for ac-
ton on the, part of Secretary Farrell.
If Farrell responded to his telegram
the answer was never made public. If
he did, the answer, apparently, was not
to Tearney's liking.
In his appeal, Tearney insists that
the recent decision of the national as
ISOLATION was in violation of the ma
tional agreement, the five mile limit
rule being the main point at issue.

quarter of the year before; The receipts
in the second quarter showed an in
crease of $1.195.S3 over the same quar-

Ii should be noted that the collec-

for water used in the third quarter, or
the months of July. August and Sep

used on lawns and gardens than dur
ing any other months. Likewise the col

water used in April, May and June
when to less extent. usually, water is
used out OF doors. There was little
need for sprinkling last summer which
probably accounts for the smaller re-
