The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
n the long run, the cheapest and best light
or use in the family residence, is the mean
'escent electric light. Safe: nothing could
ne safer. A few days ago prominent gen
leman of Honolulu came rushing down to
he office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once: no more lamps for me.
LAST night lamp tipped over and it came
81 near setting fire to the house and burning
ny children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
he past few weeks, who have ordered their
louses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
hat you want the best and safest light: send
or the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
hem what you want

Augustin Chacon, who in December, 1895, shot and killed Pablo Salcido. a we'll known citizen of Morenci, was sentenced last week by Judge Rouse to be hanged June IS, at Solomonyille, The Bulletin gives review of the case, from which we learn that Pablo Sal cido was one of posse in pursuit of Chacon and four other Mexicans who had robbed Panl Beckcr's store, at Morenci, and stabbed Becker. The robbers had taken refuge behind some rocks on the side of steep hill, and Salcilo, who was acquainted with some of them, believing he could induce them to surrender, started up the hill, when Chacon fired and shot Salcido through the head. The fight was con tinued and Chacon was wounded and captured. He was tried and convicted at Solomonvil!e in April, 1896, and sentenced to be hung July 24 follow ing, but an appeal was taken to the supreme court which affirmed the de- cision and judgment of the lower court.

Attorney General J. F. Wilson, writing to District Attorney J. 5. Sniffen on the question of the tax levies for the University, Normal school and Reform school for the year 1896. which our board of supervisors refused to make, coniuses the issue, whether intentionally or not we can not say. Ills letter conveys the i'm pression that Gila county had failed to contribute towaId the maintenance of the University and Normal school for that year, which Is not true. Every year the levies for maintenance and in- terest funds has been made, collected and paid into the territorial treasury. We know very we'll, as the learned at torney general says, that "the levy of tax for the MAINTENANCE of territorial institutions is nowhere prohibited, " but Gi,a county has already paid this maintenance tax, and doesn't propose to submit to the extortion of an addi- tioDal tax for the erection of costly buildings which are not essential to the cause of education. The extravagant appropriations made for enlarging and beauiifying those institutions is inde- feasible, as we'll as illegal, and the tax payers of Gila county do not propose to be "held up" any longer without making q fight.

GLOBE COMMERCIAL CLUB
Opposed to the Payment of
 Illegal Taxes.

At regular meeting of the Globe Commercial Club, held May 8, 1897, the following resolution, addressed to the board of supervisors of Gila county, was passed by unanimous vote:
 WHEREAS, A demand has been made upon the treasurer of Gila county for the payment into the territorial treasury, of the taxes alleged to be due from Gila county to the Territorial University, Normal school and Reform school funds for the year 1896, under the acts of the Eighteenth legislature, and for which the board of supervisors of Gila county refused to make the levies, on the ground that the sad legislative acts were in contravention of the Harrison Act, and consequently void. Therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the Globe Commer- cial Club, organized to protect and ad- vance the interests of Gila county, and numbering among its members many large taxpayers, does earnestly petition your honorable board to refuse 10 make levies for the taxes demanded for the aforementioned institutions for the year 1896, and also for the University and Normal school for the years 1897 and 1898 under the acts of the Nine teenth legislature, and in support of our contention that the said legislative acts are illegal, we respectfully submit the argument which appeared in the ARIZONA SILVER BELT of April 20, 1897,

PaYson Correspondence.

EprroRs SILVER BELr: Through the courtesy of J. c. Coleman, owner of the 2-stamp mill near Payson we are enabled to give you results of output from the several prospects of this sec ton. including that of the Golden Wonder mine, since early in the spring of '95 at which time the mill was erected and in shape to do custom work. We find that during this period of tune (up to the list of Jan. '97), over S35, ,000 has been taken out as free gold alone. Of this sum over S25, 900 is from the Golden Wonder mine, which now has some 80 tons at the mill; 375 oz of bullion from Wonder mine was shipped during the past week.
 A new strike has been made of gold ores some ten miles east from the Tonto settlement The ore is mostly free milling. MT. David Gowan, owner of the famous Natural Bridge of Arizona, is the original locator. Several parties are now in the district (Gowan) and meeting with success.
 A Mr. Hosea, representing Colorado parties, has been here for the past week purchasing cattle; his prices are sl2.5o, Sl5 and sls.50 delivered at Flagstaff, Several buyers are here.
 May Day was passed pleasantly by the people here in picnic down al the old Gowan mill on the East Verde A big fish fry was the crowning feature of the day with dance lasting unti morning. Showers of rain during tho past ten days have gladdened th' farmers throughout the basin.

When the question of the legality of the Pima county railroad bonds was raised, the Tucson papers never tired of quoting the Harrison Act as a bar to the legality of that obligation. Now,
 however, when Tucson is extorting money from the taxpayers of the other counties of the territory to build a marble dormitory for that abortion called the Territorial University, they are as dumb as oysters. It makes n wonderful difference whose OK is gored.
 But they will discover ere long that the Harrison Act was not created to put a stop to assaults upon the public treas ury by certain interests and permit 1t by others. The Harrison Act was wisely framed for the protection of property owners in the territories from legislative extrayagance. There IS nothing ambiguous about the law. As Judge Baker says, "All questions of policy, all questions of expedience, all questions of local hardship are to be eliminated, for it is to be assumed that all these things were fully considered and finally determined in euacting the law. Our duty is to support it as 1t is. '

Western mining men are often ac- cused of promoting wildcat mining schemes, but when the evidence is sifted down it is found to be the case, almost invariably, that it is an eastern harpy who has victimized his credulous friends and, in order to conceal his own rascality, denounces the pros. pector who sold the claims and con demns the district.

4 new industry has sprung up on the Arizona border, born of the "bull tick" stock law. By industry wo thrive" has deep meaning. An indi- vidual who was pardoned little more than year ago from the Yuma prison, with a copy of the new stock law in his pocket engaged in the cattle business, and, impressed with Davy Crockett's advice, Be sure you're right, then go ahead" had his @ stock brand re- corded at Phoenix, and then proceeded to accumulate herd. He found many cattle of that brand which had strayed into Graham county from New Mexico, and aided by confederates he gathered upwards of HOO head as n nucleus and hopes to have very re- spectable number before the close of the season. The authors of the new stock law buiided we'll. They were evidently moved by the worthy desire to increase the available resources of Arizona, and if New Mexico and Sonora stockmen have any grievance they will have to appeal to the Arizona courts for the restitution of their property. Section 45 of the Arizona stock law reads: "No brands, except such as are recorded under the provisions of this net. shall be recognized in law as any evidence of ownership of the horses, mules. asses, or noat cattle upon which such brand may be used. " Therefore, there is no salvation for the stockmen of the rest of the United States and of Mexico but to have their brands re- corded at Phoedix, the metropolis of the universe.
