The Borland Law.


not the repeal. of the Borland law,
which imposes burden upon the
pronertv owners of Washington in
the laying and maintaining of pave
,nents. is now being given by the Sen
ate District committee in the form of
= measure which recently passed the
House One proposition is to relieve
the owners of property of all assess
ments for resmfacing until twenty
Years after the pavement is laid An
other is to relieve them entirely of all
restIrfacinG costs.
The Borland law was ineou!table III
its inception and its terms. 1t was
based upon false principle. 1t re-
earded street pavements as BENEFITS
10 the adjacent property only. 1t laid
upon the owners of abutting property
half the cost of the pavement and
divided the other half between the Dis
trict and the Federal Government in
the proportions of the existing ratio
OF appropriation
A street is not solely Il benefit to
those who live upon II. 1t is an artery
for all the community. 1t is used by
all the community. If the principle
of the Borland law We're carried
through everybody using street on
which he did not live, or a block in
which he did not reside or own prop
erty. should be taxed for the use of
that street. But, Of course, nobody
has ever suggested even SO logical an
application of the hypothesis that the
street pavement is for the benefit of
the adjacent property primarily. If.
however. it had been advanced in Con
sreSs when the Borland proposal was
originally preached it would probably
have resulted in the rejection of that
Ubiquitous measure through its very
reduction to absurdity.
Under the Borland law enormous
sums of money have been taken from
the property owners directly in the
form of paving assessments without
any justification save that OF an in
equitable law. Repaving recently done
in this city that under the Borland
law cost abutting property owners
heavily has already been badly worn
by the traffic of others than those
property owners and repairs are even
NOW desirable IL not actually neces-
sary Unless the pending measure is
passed in one form or the other the
cost of such repairs would have to be
assessed against those property own
ers, even though they may have used
the pavements themselves in the
slightest and the least harmful de-
gree
1t is to be hoped that the Senate
committee will approve the measure
in its most liberal form and so relieve
Washington from this unjust burden.
allowing the pavements of the future
to he paid for out Of the general funds
and not by specific assessments. The
short cut to absolute justice would be
to repeal the Borland law altogether.

Noted HORSE Buyer
DieSs Gained Fame
Through Big Sales

Charles A. Smith, better known
as Horse" who was found dead
in bed in the Miners bank build
ing of Butte, recently, was prob
badly the most picturesque charac-
ter of BeaVerhead county and was
an auCtiOneeP of statewide note.
Death was due to natural causes
and a cOrnOreP's inquest was not
held. He was born in Dixon, Ill,
81 years ago.
Horse" had led more or less the
life of a wanderer until coming to
Beaverhead county p years ago
where he had since resided. During
the first part of the war, and also
when the horse market was at it's
peak throughout the country, he at
tracted much attention for his pic
turesque and profitable sales which
were always an event to be looked
forward to. In later years he had be-
come interested in mining properties
and was also the proprietor of hOtel
at Lima, which he ran until a few
months ago. Although in more OF
less Strengthened circumstances a.
the time of his death, it is said tha
he had won and lost several fortunes
during his distinctive career.

bered, these men were in about as
ugly a mood as one could well i'm
agine, yet all they did was to detain
us until morning and then permit
US to go our way. We constantly
encountered bands of Indians trav-
cling southwark with the full war
panOlpy and regalia. We were cap
tured only a few days after this eX-
perience, by scouting Indians, and
a second time we were turned loose.
In the late '70s the Indians fre-
quently passed the ranch on the Box
Elder in Black Hills country, even
stopping at the spring for water, as
we'll as camping there over night.
Particularly do I recall that just be-
fore Clusters last fight, a large war
party passed within a half mile of
the ranch, and they mOlested neither
people nor stock.
My experience with those bad In
dian fighters has always been that
they kill more Indians around the
campfire than they do in battle, and
they are far more dangerous when
they are standing behind their vic
tim or facing an unarmed foe.
Having a pretty intimate know
ledge of the two, I cannot convince
myself that Sitting Bull had any
thing on the military leaders who
opposed him, when it came to blood
thirsty cruelty, yet Sitting Bull was
an uncivilized savage of the plains
while the military were men who
had been given all that was possible
of civilized refinement and educa-
tional advantages.
I have no fault to find with con
ditiOns as they are. The Old-time
West has disappeared forever; the
Indian has given way to the white
and, no doubt the day will come
when another race or people will
force us into Oblivion just as the In
dian is now passing. Nevertheless
