CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS

wv HAT interest Is being taken ir
the amendments proposed to the
constitution Of the state, which are to
be voted on at the coming election
and which are now being published by
the state press, including this paper
seems to center around the amend
ment covering the assessment of min.
ing property. 1t seems to be pretty
generally conceded that the other
amendments are necessary and should
carry; but the mining fraternity is
very much exercised about the pass
age of this amendment opening the
way for readjustment of the taxes
on mines. They say that it is in
equitable, unsafe and unfair to the
mining interests and will have the
tendency Of retarding the development
of one of the states most important
industries.
To this the educational interests re-
ply that since the legislature passed
the law decreasing the levying power
of the state board of equalization and
the various county boards, and requir-
ing that all other property be assessed
its full cash value, while mines are
still assessed on their net returns, it
has had the effect of cutting the taxes
on mining property to less than. half
the amount paid under the former
condition, and that the amendment
proposed to the state constitution is
intended to remedy this injustice.
AS we see it, there Is no question
but that the present law is unfair to
other property interests which must
bear an unjust proportion of taxation
in order to accord mining property this
partial immunity, and the only ques-
ton is as to whether or not the pro-
posed amendment advances the best
method of arriving at the desired re-
suit.
Opponents of the amendment seek
to bring the matter home to this
county by asserting that if it becomes
a law it will be detrimental to the
great mineral resources of this coun-
ty. On this score we have little fear,
and If we had our way we would make
taxes SO high ON unimproved proper
ty of all kinds, both mineral and agri-
culture, that holders would either have
to improve it and make it produce or
sell it to some one who would do so.
We told this to one of the opponents
of the amendment who was out work.
ing for its defeat, and he replied: 81
see that you have the wrong idea, en-
tirely. but failed to show any salts
factory reason for the assertion.
All three of the amendments that
will be submitted on your ballots for
your vote in the November election
have been threshed out thoroughly in
the last legislature and are deemed
to be necessary by the lawmakers we
elected and we believe they were in a
better position to pass on their merits
and dement's than the average lay
member, so the reasonable thing to
do is to vote Eyes" on them all.

Mrs. Hobbs and Arvilla Root re-
turned to Lund over Sunday. Mrs.
Hobbs informs us she is in receipt of
fine flower bench from her son. The
school children were each given bulb
and each one is anxious that theirs
grow the fastest, all ready some of
the bulbs are up six and seven inches
and it makes the school room look so
much more cheerful to have green
things growing and it also helps the
children appreciate these things more
and have more love for their teacher.
We are in receipt of telegram
informing us that one of our stars,
Joe Shuman died of Spanish Influ-
enza at Camp Grant, Ill. Sunday,
Oct. 6. We are grieved to hear of
this as Joe just left us about six
weeks ago and it comes as rather
shock. He was very well liked here
and had many friends, was a good
worker in the Club and always ready
for good time. He was very anX-
ious to serve in the army, having
tried to enlist several times but was
called at last The people of Sahara
send their regrets to his father and
mother who are both in chicago.
Joe will certainly be represented by
a gold star in our service flag.

DELIVERY ZONE
TO ROCK RIVER
secretary of Interstate Commerce
Commission to Force Amer
lean Express to Act.

Failure on the part Of the Amer
lean Express company to comply
with the demand of the city com
mission in making deliveries on
Ninth and Twelfth streets to the
south city limits, will result in the
taking of drastic action by the in
terstate commerce commission.
John X. Scott. city attorney, yes
terday received letter from
George B. McGinty, secretary of the
interstate commission, in which
was enclosed a message he had
sent ID. S. Elliott, vice president of
the American company. The letter
sent Mr.. Elliott stated that the city
OF Rock Island had not agreed to
the proposition made by a repre-
sentative of the express company
some time ago and that deliveries
are being made only as far south
as Twentieth avenue, forcing the
residents living further south to do
without delivery service.
More drastic steps will be taken
to force the company to deliver to
the southern city limits, unless it
does so in the immediate future,
Mr. Elliott was told.
Although a conference was held
with q representative of the Amer
lean Express company, the city
commissioners did not accept the
proposition he offered, which was
to extend the delivery zone from
Eighteenth to Twentieth avenue.

SEEKS ARRESTS
HOUSING HEADS
VIOLATINGLAWS
Resolution Preventing Use Of Iron
Piping in Houses Presented
by Mayor al Meet
FOR WELFARE OF CITIZENS
Commissioners Opposed to Drastic
Action and Vote Against
Executives Plans.

Claiming that he was taking a
stand for the best interests of Rock
Island citizens, Mayor William Nc
Couochie presented a resolution at
yesterdays meeting Of the city com
mission which authorized the chief
Of police to place under arrest all
persons engaged in the installation
OF iron in place Of lead piping in
the houses under the course of con
EtrUclion al the United States Hous-
ing corporation project in Rock Is
land
His resolution is appended:
Resolved. That whereas the
housing corporation IS continuing
10 install plumbing and proceeding
with She erection Of the houses in
the Rock Island project in q man
uar contrary 10 that provided by
ol- .E -raiuances- and
"E.e-.ls. we understand that
such houses are soon TO be adVer
Used for ale and sold 10 private
individuals
Therefore bc If resolved, That as
We do lot wish our citizens injured
either financially or as to their
health by the purchase Of houses OF
inferior or family construction, that
the chief of police IS hereby in
strUcted on Information furnished
by the plumbing inspector. to arrest
all persons now engaged in Install
ing any plum hing or doing any con
struction work on said project that
is in conflict with our city Ordi-
nanCes."
BY a vote Of three to two the city
CON missiOners refused TO adopt the
mayors resolution, saying that the
procedure was not according to the
contract that had been signed be
tween the city and the housing cor
poration.
McConochie and y E Juhl were
5he two voting in favor Of the reso-
luton. Martin Rudgren, John A
NurTin and John H. Liedtke voted

secretary OF labor IN case any IN
satisfactory proceedings are taken
by the local Representatives in con-
structing the houses designated for
Rock Island.
Prohibits Iron Use.
Rock Island has an ordinance that
prohibits the installation of iron
pipe in houses where the water is
to be used for drinking purposes.
Lead pipe must be used exclusively.
Iron pipe is being and has been
used entirely. it is said, by the
Henry W Horst company in the
225 houses allotted the city.
Although the city furnished the
local contractor with sufficient lead
pipe to complete the project here,
The Horst company was unable to
use the supply on account OF the
ruling made by the war industries
board to the effect that no lead was
to be used other than for purely
war purposes.
Refuses Trip.
Contending that Davenport off,
cials secured what they asked In
regard to the Iowa project, the
commissioners requested that May
or McConochie proceed to Washing
ton as did the Davenport executive.
McConochie refused, saying that by
the time an agreement could be
reached in Washington, the local
contractors would have the plumb
ing completely installed in the
houses now being erected.
It was then planned that the city
commission proceed to Davenport
and consult with the officials there
who acted as the committee that
went to Washington with reference
to the Davenport project.
Using Lead.
i Proof that the agitation at Rock
Island city hall yesterday after
noon between city officials regard
ing placing Of lead service pipe in
the streets at the project was en-
tiTely out of order is the fact that
the Henry ". Horst company has
been putting in lead pipe since
Tuesday of last week. Housing
officials in this city received orders
to install lead pipe at the same
. time as did those in Davenport
IdClICdiIy OHe-Hdi1 VI inc SLIeel
service pipe will be lead by the
time the project is completed. Rock
Island city officials will make an
effort to have the iron pipe, already
installed, taken up in the spring,
and lead pipe put in its place. The
! city will also endeavor to have
! other changes made in the plumb
/ ing in the houses. The latter pro-
cedure will be taken up soon.
