 IMPROVED CAR LINE.-The street car system of Phoenix now represents a trackage of more than ten miles. Four years ago the trackage did not exceed three miles. The last extension com pleted is a line from the Washington street line at Seventh street to the Marlcopa & Phoenix depot. Cars on that line run in the morning and even ing, principally to make connections with the trains, suspending operations between 10 o'clock in the morning and o'clock In the afternoon. The general ing plant, which until two years ago found much difficulty in supplying power constantly to two or three cars running on the Washington street line and one on what Is known as the north division, after several improvements, now furnishes without cessation power annnrrh In tn fnt s~s Nr the Washington street line, one to ga Indian school on new line. one on the northern division and a car running to the depot. On extraordinary occasions others arc pressed into service. and with large crowds aboard the cars have successfully taxed the generating plant without break down. Work is in full blast on the Seventh avenue extension of the city railway line from Washing ton street to Van Buren street.

The grounds at the capitol building, which G. II. smith, the gardener, has labored for several years to beautify. present. magnificent appearance. Without extra establishment they will be SO inviting as to delight the presi- dental party which will view them on May and impress upon the president in a more decided manner than could volumes of language and descriptive reading matter the magic power of water in causing desert to bloom. Ac- cording to the plans of the reception committee, no especial effort will be put forth to beautify the grounds. They will be clean (but they usually are) and the new Improvements and plants will be carefully watched, but there will be no artificial decorations It is alto cether likely that new artifices would detract rather than add to the beautiful appearance brought out by nature.

had gathering of 5000 The CENSOR
representative was present that day
and was surprised and gratified to see
every department filed with a most
creditable exhibition. The county ed
ucational department under Supt Brin-
dley, exceeded anything we have ever
beheld at a county fair. There were
800 entries in this A large field of

not started on account Of heavy track.

EXPLANATION OF ASSESSMENT FIGURES.

10 its publication of county assessment
figures and facts, last week, the CEN
sOR might have entered into explanation
to sorre extent, which would have set
right the attitude of two or three towns
and villages with reference to decrease
In their assessment az comparing the
two years. Not to call attention to
these matters at this time would do in
Justice to at least the towns of Forest,
Clinton and the Village of La Fargo.
To their credit let 1t be said that their
assessors and boards of equalization, in
1900, pulled away from the old rut of
one. fourth and one-third valuation in
assessm snt and endeavored TO comply
with the law. As result of former
good work, their showing the present
year under general changed conditions.
does not look favorable on paper, when
in fact il is TO their credit,
For example, in Forest the record of
real estate sales during the past year
were only ten per cent above the assess
ed valuation on the same lands, while in
other towns equally as good, or better,
the assessment was but thirteen percent
of the selling price. The same is true
of La Fargo village, where the percent
age of assessment was .S8 as compared
with price sold for. Clinton stands in
the same attitude at .G5 per cent. These
are remarkable records and demonstrate
that the people of those towns, as COM
pared with their neighbors are paying
their full share of taxes.
In 1900 Clinton's valuation as made
by the assessor was 1852, 320, while the
splendid adjoining town Of Christiana
was but $162, 500. In justice to Clinton
the county board, last fall, equalized
the former town at s146, 760, and Chris
tiana at 1896 GA Forest was equalized
by the same body at st04. 407, while its
town authorities assessed and equalized
il at S412, ,573.
In Clinton the decrease from last year =
assessment was 81, ,S47, which is entirely
personal decrease. Between assessment
time of the two years Miner Brothers
big numbering plant and mills were re-
moved, which easily makes the differ
ence.
The CENsoR's figures Of last week
were comparisons of assessors work
and town board equaliZations. Some
readers evidently construed the figures
quoted for last year to mean equaliza-
ton as made by county board. This
view Is erroneous.
The above figures and comparisons
are made in justice TO the towns named.
As a whole they serve to demonstrate
the inaccuracies of the past system OF
taxation not only in Vernon county, but
in avery other county in the state.
