MUCH tlmc Las been asted on dis cus.i"n of the water qurs,ion, but with concentrated effort it is still possible [" have water works erected and an ample 'urply for the town before tn. year is out.
The Coconino weekly sun., 1896-07-02

pracl;c be for tue town to put in tie water works at the present time. CT did they think they would make suc- cess of it.
 Mir. Cornish replied he believed they could do it if they would pull together.
 Mir. K-ller-lf they dou't now they never will.
 Mr. Cornish-But they won't do it. Mr. Clark and Mr. Bxbbitt believed the people would pull together to get in the water.
 Mir. Cornish thought it would be well to make proposition to Mr. Burns of some kind.
 Mr. Clark said if they got 90 many matters pending they would be between two fires. They should tie themselves to some one proposition and s" ahead with it.
 After some further discussion Mir. Babbilt said if outside capital knew that this water could be had for nothing they would be to" glad t" put it in. A man could go East and find plenty of men who would be anxious io bring this water to the town if they could get the cont acts which they would offer them.
 Mir. Vail said h" felt like Mr. Grim. delay might be dangerous. Mr. Grim-If wt don't get it soon we won't get it at all. Mir. Babbi,,-Y"u will not get it this year at any rate.
 Mir. Grim said if they were to tell Mir. Burns they had calculated on putting in this wa'er themselves it would simply shut him off, and he didn't think he would stand in with tl.e town.
 l Mir. Clark said if they gave Mir. Burns encouragement the railroad people would say we didu't know whs, we wanted.
 Mir. Cornish said 1t also put him iu a bad light.
 I Mr. Babbitt-Our telegram to Cor, nish almost binds the town.
 Mir. Clark-rhat is the way I look at it. We practically answered Burn, by that telegram. believe we hay. disp"seh of Burns' proposition now. | A proposition was then started b, Mir. Babbitt that the money to built the water works could be raised in Sar Francisco, and this seemed to met with considerable favor. but he said | nothing else could be done he woult go East and hs believed he could ge, the money. They ought to go righ ahead on their own bottom. and wher they found themselves knocked out il was time to go to something else.
 This was an excellent idea and wal approved unanimously. only som, thought that before going right aheat it would be as well tO know VI hat thry were going ahead on. and accordingly the clerk was instructed to comniuni cate with Mr. Vanderwerker with th, view of getting him to go up to thu spring and take such steps as wer, necessary to find out the amount O water there is there, and to make {, permanent survey for putting in th' line and reservoir and getting tn, water into the town.

There ls not the least particle of doubt
on that. IL might be that property Is
not taxable one year at rather higner
rate than the purchase price from the
government, and yet might become tax
able the next year, II depending on the
uses to which 1t would be put or the
purposes for which 1t is occupied In
reference to the larger tract involved
in the case, IL Is apparent from the evil
dence that the greater portion OF IL Is
devoted to mining purposes. IL Is I'M
material whether IL Is actually used for
mining purposes or not. so long as II Is
not used for other and separate pur-
poses, by which IL would be given a
separate and distinct value. The EVIL
dence showed that a small portion OF
the larger tract Is occupied by house
in which family resides. There is
rule of law well established that II
tax is in part illegal insofar as IL ap-
plies to one piece or parcel of land 1t is
illegal as to the whole and cannot be
upheld. In the present case the court
is justified in saying that the larger
tract should not have been assessed for
more than the government purchase
price of IS an acre. except that part oc-
cupied by the house and as the assess
ment was wrong as to one part. il must
fail as to the whole tract. The house
and lot, separate from the portion used
for mining purposes, was subject to as
sesSment, and II was the duty OF the
board of equalization, when the protest
was made. to have applied the assess
ment to that portion of the property,
and removed ii as to the remainder.
The fact that there Is one piece of
ground on the tract used as a town lot
does not give to all a character of resi-
dence lots; on the contrary. 1t is gener-
ally of a mining character.
The judgment of the court therefore
was that the temporary injunction be
modified and discharged insofar as IL
applied to the tract of ground 73 by 1875
feet, and that a permanent and perpet-
ual injunction be issued against the
treasurer restraining him from selling
or attempting to collect taxes on that
portion of the tract assessed and de-
scribed as 225 by 125 feet, other than
the amount rendered and paid into
court. Judgment was also ordered en-
tered in favor of Mr.. Hickey for his
costs.
This action is of considerable import
ance, as Ii was a test case. There are
a number of valuable minig claims
within the city limits, portions of the
surface of which are held for mining
purposes. Under Judge McHatton's de-
cision, the surface ground of a mining
claim can not be taxed unless IL posi-
lively appears that 1t is used for other
than mining purposes and has a sepa-
rate and Independent value for such
other purposes. The decision will be of
interest to a number of mineowners,
who had made the Hickey case a test,
and will be generally regarded as salts
factory. The Hickey brothers have
similar suit pending against the city,
which will be settled to-day in accord
ance with Judge McHatton's decision.
