who have nothing to sell," is MT. John Y. T. Smiths philosophical lament for the condition of things in the valley. Continuing, he said: "We raised 10,000,000 pounds of barley on this side of the river last year, and on the other side there were 3,OOO,0OO pounds raised The market for barley extends throughout the northern part of Ari- Zona, and south as far as Bisbee. At Bisbee there are eight carloads of bar ley used every month. If we had the grain we could have this trade, but as things are now we won't have enough barley left to feed until the new crop comes. This southern mar ket has just been opened to us, and we had not figured on it at the begin ming of the season. We would have been able to keep California out of our territory altogether if we had but raised enough barley. I believe the price is going still higher, and be- lieve that the supply will not last until the new crop comes. With our | increasing trade I think the ranchers should raise more barley this year, and the price will remain good. We could have sold 100000 pounds more to the mining camps if we had it to sell. We had an order yesterday from Congress camp for 22,000 pounds, and another order came few days ago from Bisbee for two carloads.
 Barley started at 671a cents," con- tinued MT. Smith, land it has risen steadily until the present time. The men who bought early and held on have made a good thing, it is true
 but they took chances which might have proved disastrous. The drouth in California and the big shortage in the barley product there was an in- centye to speculation in barley here and today we find the entire supply in the hands of few men. But it is a legitimate deal, and there was no eff fort on their part to corner the mar ket. I know of one rancher who stored 100000 pounds of barley until the price got up to $1.10, when he so'd so you see there was no ring.
 s'It is my judgment that 25,00O,0OO pounds of barley should be produced in the valley this year to supply the de- mand. There is the Big Bug railroad and several other projects of a like nature where barley is required for teams, and then the opening of the southern territory to our barley should not be forgotten by the ranchers." A number of the other grain men Of the city were interviewed yeste day by Republican reporter, and they all | agreed that the amount of barley in the valley would not reach noe than | 400, 900 pounds. It is said that five men hold that amount, of which Mir. Hill was the first to sell his share | Whether the others will sell at the same figure remains to be seen, b-t it | is likely that they are ho- ng on with the expectation of getting a better price as the end of the season draws | near. The purchase yesterday of MT. Hills barley was made to supply the local trade

THE BARLEY SUPPLY.
It Is Enough to Satisfy Home Con-
 sumption Until the New Crop.

The visible supply of barley in this valley is but 100000 pounds, and that IS held by five men. If the amount of barley they hold was larger there might be some ground for the belief that they had successfully "cornered the barley supply of the valley. But it is legitimate transaction. and Cal ifornia puts a limit to the price they can ask for it.. Walter Hill, who bought 100000 pounds last summer at 70 cents hundred pounds, yesterday sold his entire holdings to the Phoe- nix Hay and Grain company at $l.2O a pound. He believes that the price has reached it's highest point, but this belief is not shared by some of the grain men of the valley, who are hold ing for greater rise, which they think zs inevitable. The price of barley yes terday was $1.35 a hundred pounds. This is the highest point it has reached in many years. Last year at this time the price was between S1 cents and $1.
 The shipment of barley out of the valley has been stopped, and it is probable that the present supply will not be sufficient for the local demand until the new crop comes in about the middle of May. Feeders will p-ob- ably shut off on barley if the price gets higher, and some have already stopp2d feeding it and are feeding hay alone This is the ground on which MT. Hil bases his theory that the price will net get any higher. In southern Cal ifornia there is also a shortage ot barley, and consumers there are pay ing higher price than in many years At San Francisco barley is quoted at $115 a hundred, and throughout the southwest the price ranges very high
 The northern Arizona market was supplied by this valley to the ex- elusion Of California up to two months ago The Salt River valley is pre- ferred to the California product by buyers in northern Arizona on account of it's superior quality, and it was not until the supply here got short that California began to ship to this terri tory. The northern barley shipments ran on an average of one carload a day until the valley was required to cease shipments. John Y. T. Smith of the Phoenix flour mil1 said that his shipments averaged seventeen cars a month for June, July, August and Sep tember. There was practically no southern market for Salt River valley barley until short time ago when the Southern Pacific made a rate which gave shippers here chance to get into Bisbee and the big camps in the south ern part of the territory. MT. Smith says the present supply of barley will run out some time before the new crop, which will necessitate shipping fn here from California.

DOUBLE TAXATION.
An Important Suit Growing Out of
 Mesa Bank Stock Assessment.

A very important suit was fled in the office of the district clerk yesterday.
 An application on the part of Dr. Will bur and his wife of Mesa for an injunction was made
 by Judge J. B. Woodward ag inst the town of Mesa, and c. B. Lewis. city
 marshal and collector of taxes Dr. Wilbur and his wife are the owners of
 .50 shares in the Mesa bank which
 was assessed for taxation. Ths plain
 tiffs resisted payment and the shares
 have been seized by the marshal who
 yesterday advertised them for sa-e
 The complaint embraces three
 theories or grounds of action. The
 first is that the bank having paid taxes
 upon it's corporate property, an at tempt IS being made to levy d-uble taxation upon the property of the plaintiffs. This theory is supported
 by section g of the revised statutes which says: Shares of stock in a corporation possess no intrinsic value over and above the actual value Of the | property of the corporation for which
 they stand and represent and the as sessment and taxation of such shares and also of the corporate property would be double taxation. Therefore all property belonging to corpor ations shall be assessed and taxed, but no as sessment shall be made of shares of stock, nor shall any holder thereof be taxed therefor"
 The defense claims that it is given authority under an act of the last ses- sion of the legislature to tax shares of bank stock
 Another ground of complaint in case 1 1t should be shown that the city has the right to assess the shares is that the plaintiffs do not live within the city limits of Mesa and should not be compelled to contribute to the support of the municipality. Still another ground is that the shares have been
 assessed too high, taking into consid-

The tug O. P. Raymond. manned with nhu-

The trunks the Raymond WIS after had been

why the talent was sent to sea. A reward Eas
