PROGRESS or THE UNITED STATES.
That interesting annual with the re.
pellant title OF the statistical Abstract
of the United States" for 1907 Is out. II
il the record OF the nations progress az
certified by the government. According
to the book the population Of the United
States is now 72,sO7,0OO. Thirty years
ago, In 1867, the population was 32,2l0,-
600. Just about one-half what II Is now.
We are increasing at the rate Of 100000
a year. The money In the country Is
$34.25 per capita. That Is more than the
per capita OF any but six years in the
thirty past. Il ia Sl.37 more than Il was
in 1896. The largest amount Of money
In the country for any n year since the
war wa 1851 in 1892. The public debt
Is now 1883 for each one Of the popula-
ton. In 1867 1t wa s69.26. The pen.
sions cost now t12i per capita yearly.
That is slightly less than the cost for any
year since 1891. The pension list is
growing, but not quite as fast as the
population. The expenditures OF the
government are now $500 per person,
A rather curious column Of the abstract
Is that which shows the per capita
consumption Of imported merchandise
Americans now take Of the products
OF other countries $l0.s4 worth il
a year. In 1857 the consumption Of for
eign goods was sl0.44 per person. Their,
has been but little variation. The pei
capita OF products Of other nations con
sumed has been below $40, only hyI
times in thirty years, and above Sl5 pei
capita but once. The duties now col
lected are only ~ 43 per capita. In 1879
they amounted to GAGS. The progress o
the country is shown In It's population
and its exports. In 1867 the Unite,
states sold OF Its products t7.78 worth pc
capita, and in 1897 Sl4.l7. There hay,
been only six years in thirty during
which the per capita OF exports reaches
, tl4. Only in 1892 has the export pc
a capita been greater than that Of 1879

Graham County, Arizona, IeUnng Ner-
vous About the Money.
Extract Of law passed by the last legis-
lature:
Section l.-Transient herds Of sheep
and coats shall be assessed and the taxes
shall be collected in the county where
the owners reside, but II shall be the
duty Of such owner to report, under oath,
10 the C Junsy treasurer Of what length
OF time, II any, his sheep have been out
side the county this year, and the length
OF time they have been In another county
or counties Of the territOry-naming
such county or counties; whereuDOn tho
treasurer will transmit TO such county or
counties the proportion Of the amount OF
tax collected as corresponds TO the time
the herd was In such county or counties,
less s per cent for collection; provided,
however, that transient herds OF sheep
or goats, owned and grazed In the terri
tory Of Arizona by nOn-residents shall be
assessed in the county In which they are
found.
Sec. 2. All acts or parts Of acts In con
fiict with this law are hereby repealed.
Sec. 3. This act shall take effect and
be In force from aud after Its passage.
Since November I, OF last year, there
have arrived In this county from Apache
county large bands OF sheep aggrega-
ting not less than 10000 head. They
left Apache county about October 81,
and il will be the middle OF May before
they will return. According to the
above law, enacted by the Nineteenth
legislature. these sheep will necessarily
be II sted in Apache county. IL Is the
duty Of the asses sOr OF that county to
see that they are all given In, although
at present they are grazing on the north
side Of the ella mountains, in this
county. These sheep will remain in
Graham county at least six months and
We will be entitled 10 one half Of the
amount OF taxes collected on them, LEES
the 3 per cent commission. The asses
sor Of this county should give the sheep
ranges a close inspection, and bands
brought In here from northern New
Mexico must be assessed in this county
as the law directs. There are at least
10000 sheep on the ranges OF this county
that have been brought down from
Apache county. Sheep were assessed
last year at ell 80 a head. At the same
figure this year these sheep will repre-.
sent 100000 Of taxable wealth. The tar
rate in Apache county is about s3.25
per 800 80 IL will be readily seen that
Apache county will owe Graham county
about $1,000 for taxes collected on sheer
that were In Graham county more than
half the time. The largest owners are
Montana and Conklin, who have brought
their sheep TO Graham county every win
