Coconino county is evidently making a last effort to get even with the Santa Fe railroad and the big landed corporations which have hitherto succeeded in evading the payment of their just proportion of taxes. The lands of these corpora tions have this year been assessed at a good round figure, under the belief, as the law provides, that if the taxes are not paid they will stand as a bar to the exchange of these lands for other government land, as agreed upon. Coconino county's assessment, as it now stands, foots up s4 ,527, ,439. .66, which is far above the mark entitling it to a place among first class counties. However, Coconino county's eleva- tion is likely to be short lived, as in the event of the consolidation of the forest reserve the lands revert ing to the government would be ex- empt from taxation.- Globe Silver Belt.

Cave creek overfiowed its banks last Saturday morning and deluged all the country roundabout Glen dale, Peoria and New River, small villages located northwest of Phoe- nix. The flood was the biggest ever seen in that neighborhood. Cave creek in the mountains is but a small stream, yet when it reached the desert it spread over a large area. There was nothing to check the rush of water save the bank of the Arizona canal, and it broke in many places and vast quantities of water went to waste.

We are pained to hear a rumor that the republicans of this terri tory are trying to induce our old friend, E. s. Clark, to sacrifice him self on the altar of the republican congressional nomination. Clark, we believe, is too smart to bite at such uncertain honor harnessed to certain defeat No republican can win in that race, and Clark is too good a citizen to march up to the sacrifice.

found it necessary to acquire the lands
occupied by several of his tenantry

Irish landlords, he simply turned the
occupiers out with very scanty COM

extension was completed Mr.. Glad

under which it became difficult to
eject tenant farmer without giving
compensation. So exaSpcrated was
the earl with this legislation that he

FROM IRELAND :

Tue Fellow Who Fights Alele.
The fellow who fighs the fight alone,
With never word of cheer,
With never friend his help to lend,
With never comrade near
Tis he has need of stalwart hand
And heart not given to moan
He struggles for life and more than
life,
The fellow who fights alone!
The fellow who fights the world alone
With never a fathers smile,
With never mothers kindly tone
His sorrowful hours to guile,
Who Joins the fray at the dawn of day
And battles till light is flown,
Must needs be strong, for the fight is
long
The fellow who fights alone!
All, bitter enough the combat is
With every help at hand,
With friends at need to bid godspeed,
With spirits that understands;
But fercer far is the fight to one
Who struggles along unknown
Oh, brave and grim is the heart of
him,
The fellow who fights alone!
God bless the fellow who fights alone,
And arm his soul with strength!
Till safely out of the battle rout
He conquering comes at length,
Till far and near to every ear
The fame of his fight is blown,
Till friend and foe in the victory know
The fellow who fights alone!

flagration which had taken place the
previous night, by which the residence
of a lady named Mrs. uackett, of

dence on Sunday afternoon to visit
some friends at Woodbrook. When
she left small fire was burning in
