yesterday in Chicago to nominate candidates
for president and vice-president. 1t IS impos-

Blaine and Sherman seem to be in the lead;
but Blaine says he wiz not be o candidate.

Assessing Cattle.

The Southwestern Stockman, of
Wilcox, Cochise county has the fol
lowing upon the above subject.
"a great injustice was done the cat
tlemen of Arizona last year, by the
Territorial board disqualification, on
placing a value of twelve dollars
per head on all cattle for assess
ment purposes, and unless some
intelligent and united action is ia
ken by our stockman the same out
rage is likely to be perp,trated
again this year. AS Mr.. White
says, there is not herd of cattle in
this county that would, if offered
at public sale, bring $12 per head,
all rOund-the rate st which they
are assessed. In this issue The
Stockman notes, is Il paragraph
stating that herd of cattle in
Pima county had just changed
hands at $11 per head and we
have recently recorded sales of cat
tie in New Mexico, where the herds
are equally as we'll graded as they
are here, at oven lower figures. In
The face Of such facts as these, it
would be an objectionable outrage
to again list cattle at $12 per head
for assessment. Cattle in some Of
the counties of this territory are
now assessed at higher rate than
they were q few years ago when the
cattlebusiness was booming when
the range man could sell his beef
at prices ranging from 6 to s cents.
Will any sensible man, knowing the
depression that the business has
experienced during the past two or
three years, and the present prices
that the producer realizes for his
beef, say that this is just? We think
not. The stockmen of Arizona pay
a very large proportion ofthe taxes
that go to support the territorial
and county governments, and are
perfectly willing to stand their just
share of taxation. But they deci-
dedly object to being assessed for
more than their property would
bring at public sale,

THE Philadelphia Times, which
we regard as one of the soundest

and one which is as little swayed
in its opinions by party bias as any
other thinks it is "a serious error
to assume that any change of party
or policy in our national govern
ment can materially affect the gem
eral business or prosperity Of the
country. No purity can obtain the
control Of this great government
without great leaders, and leaders
of even average wisdom know that
prosperity in business and business
trust in the administration are in
dispensable to continued power.
The one aim Of political leaders is
power; and as the sovereign power
of the republic is in the people, the
success Of the peoples industries
and the prosperity Of all are the
aim Of our rulers"
