That settled it. Presently, the
chief went to Beckwourth and after
commencing his course, said: II

younger than she was. She is more
beautiful, she has good sense. and
good ears. You may have her in

Came the time when 1t was to break
up and scatter on the hunt for more
beaver, and Beckwourth, Greenwood

and several others took up quarters
with the Crows. The number of
scalps in Beckwourth's lodge ex-
cited the curiosity of the braves and
Greenwood, who was something of a

he was Grow.

backing up his assertion, that

This threw the whole village into

had suffered the loss of son in the
Cheyenne battle were summoned to

INSUFFICIENT FUNDS
THREATEN COLLEGES

Colorado's institutions of higher
learning are threatened with a general
exodus of professors, their scholastic
standards are at stake and the whole
system of higher education in the
state faces financial disaster. To NEE:
this crisis the authorities of these col.
leges are looking forward to the pass
age of the initiated amendment pro.
viding increased revenues for the
maintenance of the university and the
colleges of the state.
This amendment will appear on the
ballot at the general election, N, en-.
ber 2. The passage of the amendment
allowing an increase of the state levy
from four to five mills does not mean
direct appropriation of money fol
educational purposes. 1t simply gives
to the general assembly the power to
give more money to these colleges if
in the discretion of that body, the
funds are needed.
Increased appropriations have been
made necessary by the rapidly rising
cost of materials and the necessity of
increasing salaries. Many professors
have gone from Colorado to institu
tions in other states or have given ur
educational work entirely because of
the low salaries.
! A constitutional amendment was
necessary because the statute at pres
ent limits the levy for all state pur
poses to four mills, and the levy is
now within fifty-three hundreths OF
that limit.
The text of the amendment follows
"The rate of taxation on property
for state purposes, shall never exceed
four mills on each dollar Of valuation
Provided, however. that in the discre
tion Of the general assembly IN addi
tional levy Of not to exceed one mil
on each dollar Of valuation may from

erection Of additional buildings at

and support Of, the state educational
institutions, provided further, that the
rata Of taxation on property for al
,tate purposes including the additional
levy herein provided for, shall neve,
exceed Ave mills on each dollar Of val
