After September 1st coyote scalps
will be worth 81 each, and our local
nimrods are cleaning up their fowling
pieces and traps in anticipation of
rich harvest. The law is little TOO
liberal in this matter. A twenty-five
cent bounty would have led to an ex- {
termination of the coyote tribe just as (
speedily and would not have carried l
with ii the risk of also exterminating
the cash in the county treasury. I'm
der the new dispensation coyote propa-
cation would be profitable industry
and some OF our plainsmen are liable ,
to "catch onto" the idea.-Arizona

Assessor f. y. Chamberlin has COM {
pleted the work of assessing, and left I
Monday for the San Pedro country, to I
enjoy rest and recreation. The total {
of the assessment roll is about 81 $685. [
900. This amount will probably be in :
creased by the Board OF Equalization. {
The large number of cattle shipped out ,
of the county during the early spring, ,
and the closing down of the Ray. and S
the departure OF the large number OF
freight teams formerly employed in
hauling freight for that company, have :
caused slight shrinkage in the total
property valuation of the county, and
also in the poll and road tax.-Blade.
