HUTCHINSON ATTORNEYS make
TOUCHING APPEAL TO PEOPLE
IN CONNECTION WITH TAX CASE

In connection with the pending Su-
preme Court hearing Of the Hutchin-
son cattle case, News-C Champion has
encountered articles in certain West
ern Slope papers evidently written by
the people Of the lower counties which
send forth q heart rending appeal TO
the people Of the lower counts which
is, in substance, Don't let the noun
tain counties get the taxes, that are
coming to them-we need the money
ourselves"
On August 10Th, County Treasurer
Herrick and Sheriff Hanlon seized 95
head of cattle and horses belonging
to Hutchinson. who had escaped pay
ing any taxes for a number Of years.
Hutchinson brought an injunction
against the county officials, maintain
ing that he had paid his taxes in Del
Ia county and was being subjected to
double taxation. According to stat
ute, cattlemen ranging their stock in
several different counties pay taxes
in each county proportionate to the
stock grazcd in the county.
Judge Black sustained the county
officials in their action whereupon the
Hutchinson interests carried the case
to the supreme court OF, supersede-
as. 1t would seem that the decision
of Judge Black, being negative in
character, could not be stayed by
but the county officials
are willing and anxious to get deci-
sion upon the constitutionality of the
1911 amendment to the 1902 act in
question. Attorney C. H. Stone con-
Quoted all the proceedings in the in
junction case, and the firm Of Stone
& Kochevar has prepared very able
brief for presentation to the Supreme
Court. A decision is expected with
in very short time, probably a
month.
Judge Stone expects to prove the
of the 1911 amend
ment TO the invalid 1902 law cover
ing the case. He points out that the
mode of taxation is q matter OF legis-
lative control with which public Of
ficials have no question.
Meanwhile, Gunnison county has
been saddled with the burden Of car
ing for the seized stock. Inasmuch,
as Hutchinson could not substantiate
his claim Of double taxation, it would
seem that he should have paid his
taxes under protest and then brot an
action to recover same.
The case in the Supreme Court Is
now proposition Of testing the con-
Of the act under which
the county officials operated. The
appeals to the valley
counties have nothing to do with this

The most encouraging news

The most encouraging news in
some time for the road builders OF
the state was that received this week
to the effect TINT the $1,000 900 High
way Bond issue had been disposed Of
in its entirety to the International
Trust Company Of Denver. In view
Of the depression in other parts Of
the state and nation, these bonds
failed to receive a very enthusiastic
reception upon their appearance and
have been crying for buyers for
several weeks. Last week the various
state road projects were forced to
cease operations thru lack Of funds.
The conditions Of the bond sale pro-
vide that the state Is to receive $780,

Legislative action In placing such Q
law on the statute books.
The great open ranges IN the noun
tains represent q valuable asset 70,
the mountain counties, and it is only
just and equitable that there should
be fair division Of the taxes b.
tween the counties where the stock il
kept during the year. Taxation Is
based on the protection to life and
property that the government gives
in return for it, and as long as Gun
nison county protects these cattle and
feeds them for certain months out
Of each year, so should they receive
a like proportion Of the taxes assess
ed against the property.

ing red cent. In other words, they
have used this statute now attacked in
order to secure a division of ASSESS
ment, and then refused to pay the
Gunnison county end Of it. Instead
of double taxation as alleged, II is
only partial taxation.
The open range is one of our most
valuable assets, and we feel that we
are justly entitled to revenue from
the same propoTtionate to its use. For
Delta county to collect the whole
years taxes on stock that ranged q
part Of the year in another county
would be just as unfair principle Of
government as that Of double taxn-
tion, and we do not believe that out
side of few interested individuals
and attorneys in the lower valleys
that public opinion will in any wise
support this view of the case.
All the mountain counties, such as
Ouray, San Miguel, Saguache, Hins-
dale, Chaffee, Lake and Pitkin,- are
equally interested in this statute and
the success Of our county officials In
upholding the validity Of the law and
securing equitable distribution Of tax
valuation and tax collection. There
is far more involved than three or
four thousand dollars due from Hut
Crimson to this county and the entire
state is watching the outcome.
