production for the valuations Ia he
subjected to taxation. So we must con
rlude that the only possible way or
arriving at the value of n mining
property is its actual production.
The New Mexico law seems Ia have
been patterned after the Utah law.
and the principle ~ taxation for the
actual production is used even In Ari-
IONA. where the multiple Is different
There seems Ia he no actual value
business attempted In any state where
experience has developed tax methods.
Therefore. the history of mine taxa
tion. aS written through centuries Of
the mining industry, forces the conclu-
sion that those insisting upon other
methods Of taxation for the mines Of
this state are simply ignorant of the
conditions NJ the industry and the tax
history which has accompanied it
through all these ages They must
come To the production for n valua-
tion. and other schemes are not prac-
teal.
With the certainty that the produc-
ton must finally he used aS the basis
for the taxation of mines. the political
contentious NJ those attacking the in
duStry IN New Mexico must fall Ia the
ground. because they amount Ia moth
ing more than the loud declaiming Of
the mOuntehank. who by lowered and
unmenning language hopes Ia draw
your attention to something he wants
to hurry you into doing.
The question then is this; Does the
New Mexico law place AN adequate
and just tax on the mines Of the state:
Some two years ago n republican
governor caused commission To he
appointed for the purpose Of surveying
the entire tax situation In the state,
and il is to be admitted that his proce-
dure was orderly. proper and Of merit.
as there was no political TRADE against
any one industry or any class OF prop
erty. although II was said at the time
that certain large tax paying Interests
desired the work started preliminary

or female. advocating that the mcr-
chant. the doctor. lawyer. or profcs-
Siunal or working man Of any kind
earning three thousand five hundred
a year should he forced To pay taxes

any such taxation as has been pro-
posed by the men who are campaigning
on the mine tax issue would he cunfis,
catory. discriminate against the min
ing industry. and actually put the indi-
vidual and small companies out Of
business.
The conclusion must he that these
politicians are not honest IN their cam
paign. because IL they believed the
present law was So very far wrong.
and they were not intending To destroy
the industry for some purpose, they
would present, in their platform. u
substitute of some kind. and campaign
for that showing its workings
The truth is probably about this.

The radical elements Of the nation
have taken n new method OF attack up
ON the governmental government
and in some states have captured the
republican state machines. In Ariz-

have captured the democratic ma
