The Colorado Tax Commissicn re
cently made a thorougn study of the
taxation situation in that state
Following is an excerpt from its re
port: "Eliminating educational and road
funds, of every dollar raised by gen
eral property taxation, less thar.
seven cents goes to tho state. The
other 93 cents is for home consump
tion ,and is raised and spent by the
local officials elected by the people
for that purpose. And they in turn
spend the money, as directed by the
people who vote on themselves at
least 93 per cent of the taxes which
they pay.
"Communities, as a rule, vote free
ly; but when the bill is presented it
seems to be lost sight of that these
things were ordered by themselves."
