 A bill has been introduced in the legislature, q copy of which is in the hands of Mr. Lewis Williams. which provides for the levying of special school tax, the minimum of winch is x cent on $i00 and the maxim um Is eignt-tenths Of q cent OH $l0O. The taxable property in Cochise county is, in round numbers, $4,0o0,000. The sum raised on thls amount, at the rate fixed by this bill would, if the minimum is taken, be $32O, and if the outside limit Dc levied it would reach the insignifcar sum oi k560.
