The Mammoth Mine.

THE receivership Of Mammoth
mine" said Senator George P.
Blair last evening, "is simply to
bring about a substantial and safe
title to the mining property of the
company. The step was not taken
as many believe, because the mine
was not paying. The Mammoth
has always been a profitable min
ing property, but the company
long ago decided to take steps to
improve the property in the direc-
tion Of bringing about the mini
mum cost in the operation of the
mine. Some of the stockholders
object to the improvements, and the
gentlemen who see the necessity
of making them have entered the
courts to bring them about"
Senator Blair stated that the
company will no doubt tablish
an electric power plant in Tucson
and transmit power over copper
wires to the mines to be used in
operating the mill and hoists and
other equipment. 1t was first
thought advisable to locate plant
i'll the Catalins where there is wood
and water, but the project to bring
the plant TO Tucson is received
with greater favor on account of
the railroad facilities which will
provide cheaper fuel. The power
plant will be located upon the
river close to the Southern Pacific
tracks. Besides providing power
for the mines, the company will
also sell to manufacturing establish
ments in Tucson.-Citizen.

In telling about "Some People l

witnesses the parents of both bride

refused to say the last | repeated
it and waited. Again she refused,
and | shut up my book. Then
there was a scene. They talked
it over, and the more seriously
they argued and discussed the
more stubbornly she refused. The
parents became angry, the groom
excited, and the bride hysterical.
To humor her he joined in the re-
quest to have me leave it out. But

a little sternness from me in the

which he did. He gathered his
hat and started for the door when,
presto change! she sprang after
him, led him back by the hand,
looked meelkly up at him and said

By either coincidence or design,
the life of Capt. Dreyfus, written
by himself, and telling in graphic
detail the horrors of his imprison-
ment on Devils island, is published
the same time with the confessions
of Count Esterhazy, who was one
of the chief instruments of his
prosecution. There are intima-
tions that the whole Dreyfus af-
fair is to be reopened, in order that
the truth May be established and
the public informed OF the precise
nature Of what appears to have
been broad conspiracy, of which
Dreyfus happened to be the prin-
cipal victim merely because he got
in its way. 1t will be shocking
exposure if all is true that is as
serted, but it will be a wholesome
experience for the French republic.

THE INEQUALITIES OF
TAXATION
From the Tucson Citizene.

iahut WV L
fective reformer now in official life,
continues to stir up the mossbacks
and give surprise to the thinkers
Mayor Johnson is paying particu'
lar attention to the taxing system
of Cleveland. Like most cities,
Cleveland has costly government
and Mr.. Johnson is trying to ascer-
tain out of whose pockets the
money is taken to pay for munich
pal government.
Like all intelligent persons who
have examined the question, Mayor
johnson has arrived at the conclu-
sion that under the general prop
erty tax system all inequality OF
taxation is inequality of assess
ment, and he has announced that
he desires to "fnd II system for the
valuation of property which would
value the poor mans property by
the same rule that the property OF
the rich man was placed on the
duplicate" Some persons may
say that is demagogy, but it should

1t is simple Justice. 1t is the
absolute requirement of every tax
law in the country. 1t is prin-
cipal which no honest man can
controvert. In the course of a
speech recently, Mayor Johnson
made one suggestion which is start
ling in its evident truth and inn
portancc. He said:
"The city now receives $1,000
900 income from its various
sources, and from 81 100000 to ST.
100000 is expended in watching
how that sum is expended. In
watching the sources from which
income comes not more than 81
600 is expended and that is ex-
pended by the county. / would
suggest that the city employ man
whose duty it is to act as prose
cutor in these valuations. He
would show to the boards reasons
why valuations should be raised.
The whole scheme of the present
Government is to watch the outgo,
but not the income"
This is true not only of Cleve-
land, but also of every other mu-
nicipality in the country, and when
its significance is considered it is
most absurd condition. Here in
Tucson we devise system for put
ting the city business on a business
basis. We make most careful pro-
vision for the proper expenditure
of money by requiring the investi-
CATION and approval Of boards and
councils, and every item passes
under the inspection of an auditing
department, but for inspection of
the city's income from taxation we
do nothing.
Every taxpayer gets his prop
erty past the officials on as good
terms as possible without any no.
tice from the city. If anyone
should conduct his private business
on such a basis, he would be a !
laughing stock. Suppose a rail
road company should try to get
along by concentrating its watch
iulness on the expenditures and
citing its ticket selling and freight
contracts go unmatched, where
you'd it land?
The result with II city or county
$ similar, and we hear on all sides
he complaint that property es-
,apesiaxation." SO it does, and
,vhher property is overburdened to
he same extent. Can remedy be
