It is astonishing to see the readi-
pess with which some people are . always prepared to attack the in­dustries of their country, and in their blindness work a permanent
and deadly injury to their own interests.. In doing this^ they be- leive that they are striking at capi­
tal, when in fact the shot they are using is nothing more than a boomerang and they themselves the
injured. .A fair saMple of this is
now going on in the Colorado State Legislature, which is attempting to
pass a measure taxing mines in that State as follows;“That all mines and mining claims bearing gold, silver, lead
copper or other precious or valuable metals, and the gross proceeds of possession rights in unpatented claims, shall be listed and valued each year, and shall be assessed at their full cash value. All surface improvement and all machinery located u]^n any mining claim or claims shall be . separately valued for taxation. Provided that a rion- producing mining claim or claims shall be assessed and taxed like other property, according to the value thereof; and in ascertaining such value the_ assessor shall, in addition, io. other requirements of this act, take into consideration the location; thereof, the • proximity to other mines or mining claimf, and any other matter ■ which may tend to Assist him in arriving at' a fair and equitable valuation of such properties.” , – ,; ^No State can afford to' tax ito
non-producing mines. Their valuee are unknown. Thousands of dol­
lars hav^ to be expended upon
before ineir real values can be ar­
rived at, and then oftimes the prove
to be valueless. A tax on the non- pr^ucer ^ill result in driving the
promoter put of the country .every time. The very attempt to pass this law' in Colorado has . resulted in bringing development w6rk to a
^ . , .stand still,, and if it .should ;be en.acted, the proihoters wili^ look for
VoOther fields.'

Smne years ago a man now way np in railroad circles held a position with the Central branch road, -just big enoQgh to enable him to take a trip over the line now and then in a special car, says the Kansas Qty Journal. He was somewhat of a 4>oker player .and occasjonaUy would invite some, of h^ friends who knew the game to take a trip over the line with him. On one of the return trips his friends were getting into him in good shape. He was $400, or $500 loser.The train was within 17 mUes ;Of Atohlson and he knew there was -.no show for him to pull out even ^ the time it' would take to run In. So h« excused himself .^nd. went to the bag­gage car and pulled the; air. The train came t^ a stop. He. talked with the engineer for a , few.. minutes., Then he went back and resumed . playing. The train djdn’t move. Tlie friends a^ked him what was the mat­ter. He said that the engine had slipped an eccentric and he had tele­graphed to Atchison for another en­gine. In a couple of hours, through some plucky plays, the. railroad man got even vvith the gamie. Then he stepp.?d to the platform of the car and yelled to the engineer: “Bunlike h—1 into town. Pm even with the game.*’ – J*” • , _ ^ •
