 HoS. HARRIS BALDWIN, introduced
 Q bill in the council restricting the
 Boards of Supervisors in tax cases. Section 1 is as follows: That no
 Board of Supervisors shall have
 any power or authority whatever to
 rebate, diminish, adjust. settle or
 compromise any tax, taxes, tax
 value, tax assessment, tax levy or
 any action, suit or proceeding begun
 or pending in any court for the re- coyery of any tax or taxes, whether the same be for territorial, county or
 other purpose" The bill makes it
 felony for any member of any
 Board of Supervisors to encourage
 or advocate any acts enumerated above, or for any citizen, corpora ton or agent of any corporation to encourage any member ofany Board to do any of the acts above emu merated. If this bill becomes a law, and the HERALD hopes it may, it will force railroads and other cor porations to pay their taxes, just as individuals have to do, or they are declared exempt from taxation by the courts. Then there will be TO more compromises, and the ques- ton of exemption from taxation will have to be settled for all time to come. In case the Atlantic and Pacific conclude to fight and refuse to pay their taxes on the spacious plea of exemption, 1t stands the counties interested in hand, as we'll as the Territory, to make common cause and fight it to a final judge ment. The expense of carrying such cases through the courts of the Territory to tine Supreme Court of the United States is too great for any county in Arizona to un- dortake single-handed. The Attor- ney-General claims, and the Su- preme Court of the Territory has decided, that the Territory is a par ty to any suit for taxes, and that counties have no right to compro- mise any such suits. If they have no right to compromise such suits, they have no right to lower the as ses5ment fixed by the Territorial Board of Equalization, This being the case the railroads would have to pay their taxes on the valuation placed on their property by said board, or make good their claim to exemption. We would be glad to see the question finally adjudicated | by the highest court in the land.

BILLY sOMERs,s BOOSTERS TO THE
FRONT AGAIN.

FRONT AGAIN.
This time to 90 to the Worlds Fair.
A short time ago whilst Billy was en-
jOying one Of his evening rambles by
chance he fell In with a party out on q
straw ride and bound fol his residence,
bent on seeing his famous biddies. Two
of the ladies', Mrs. Bilderback and Mrs.
Casper were from Wilmington, and
Mrs. William Russell and daughter and
Mrs. Lloyd, from Chicago. The last
named persons gave Billy a very cor
dial Invitation to bring his ROSTERS out
to their residence and place them on
exhibition at the great Worlds Fair.
Now IL Billy could bring it to bear
and have his roosters advertised large
ly, perhaps it would be quite q nice
business for him in his declining years,
especially il the Mckinley bill should
take such a strong hold upon the
squash culture as to make 1t unproita-
BILE business. Billy tells the writer
that his corn catcher is sure Of 10 grains
out of every 20 and the mouser gets the
best of his feline family every time.
SQUASH.
P. s. The ladies Of the straw par,
ty Jaw the biddies bnt forgot to bring
along the corn, SC says Billy. WtS
p. s. / almost forgot Danny but
my opinion liz, If Billy will tend to the
BOOSTERS and let Danny have full sway
at the squash business, he is all right;
and another idea is that while Billy
has a dollar, Danny don't you fear. s.
