Advice from the North
There is a great deal of nonsense be-
ing published in the state papers re-
garding assessment and taxation. All
that Is necessary to secure all the reve-
nue. that Is needed to meet all legiti.
mate public expense is to see that the
revenue laws of the state are properly
enforced. The low assessment Of
railroads in the past has encouraged
prominent live stock owners to ask
for a lower valuation upon live stock
upon the ground that the valuation per
head In this state is higher than in 9TH
er states. This is a specious argu-
ment. and when backed by the implied
threat that stockmen will leave the
state unless the valuation is lowered,
carries some weight with many per.
sons. 1t should be kept in mind, how
ever. that in Nebraska and other states
the tax levy is lot limited as in Wyo-
assessment Is not 80 great as It ap.
pears. II the request of the live stock
grower is granted by the state board
of equalization, owners of other classes
of property have just as good a right
to demand of the county assessors
that their assessments shall be lower.
ed on the same basis. This law savors
too much Of tax lodging. All should
realize that public expenses must be
met and If the assessment is lowered
the tax levy must be increased and
thus II all property is assessed upon
an equal basis there is nothing gained.
Let the state board of equalization
place a proper value upon railroads
and live stock and the various coun.
ties properly enforce the laws for the
assessment Of other classes of proper
ty and the alleged difficult problem
would be solved.-Newcastle Journal.

Mining Man Says Tiburon Island
 is Not Rich in Mineral.

James Barrett, who was in Bisbee a few days ago on his way out of Mexico, says that Tiburon island is not rich in mineral He spent several weeks pros pecting for ore, but was unable to find anything that looked good.
 "The stories told about the island being rich in gold. silver and copper, and being uuexcelled for grazing pur- poses are incorrect,r- said Mr. Barrett. Il went all over the island and failed to find anything such as has been talk ed about recently in, |5e newspapers.
 "Tne island is not far from the Mex ican coast. The people there made no attempt to do us any harm, though we hear about their being cannibals eager to devOur the white man who is brave enough to set foot on the island.
 ''I was very much disappointed in what saw. I went there with sev- eral others expecting to find fabulous iy rich lodges O: gold and copper. l thought so little Of what found that did not make any effort to stake out any claims"
 It is to Tiburon island that "Ari- zOna Charley Meadows recently started on an exploring expedition. He has several California people in- terested in the enterprise.

Historic Parral Produced 6O,OOO,OO0
 Says Bancroft

Parral, or Hidalgo del Parral. was established in l600. and while the date of the first mining operations is not known, the Jesus Maria and rajo mines were being worked as early as l632; in 1884 the report was officially made that silver ore carrying 240 ounces per ton had been discovered; from l64l to 1649 the records show a registration of four and half million ounces Of silver, and from l6i9 to l6sS two and half million ounces. Alter that time the records fell into the hands of the French and were de- stroyed. Bancroft records Parral as being the second richest district in Chihuahua, having yielded S60,000, = 900 in gold. The most important dis trict is Batopilas, which hds produced from loo, 900, 900 to 300, ,000, GOO ounces in silver, The Santa Rosa de Cusi- huirachie was operated from l666 to lSl0, and produced S0,000.O00 ounces in silver, when it was abandoned be- cause of the revolution.-Los Angeles Herald

The copper output in Mexico is in creasing very rapidly. as shown by the exports Of the first ten months Of the fiscal years l90l-l902, which amounted in money value to Ell, ,23S, 0l1 gold, gain of near 5000, ,000 over the corresponding ten months Of l9o0-l90l. It is predicted that :he production of copper during the cur rent fiscal year 1902 1903 will show a still greater increase, as q result of several new mines Of large producing capacity being now ready to yield. Practically all the copper produced in Mexico is exported, a large part of it is assorted orc.

The Cananea company has greatly decreased its working force, and a large number of men have gone into Arizona to spend the holidays. The number of men let out is about 100. Just why the men have been released is not known. The company has plenty of work on hand and enough more to keep the entire force busy for several months. The working force in the mines has been greatly de- creased. It has not been learned whether or not they will be put back. Among the big things planned for the coming year, and which will require the services of large number of mechanics, are the building of twenty five miles of railroad south and a Sl50.- GOO water line from the head of the Sonora river to Cananea.

4 pretty good story is going the rounds Of the press relative 10 the in- vestigation Of the senate committee on territ ries at this point. The com mittee first went to the college and went through the halls and the science buildings with undue haste, plainly nOsiGg around for adverse criticism In the meantime the secretaries were subpOenaing justices of the peace, the county clerk and others at Las Cruces While Dona Ana county has had for several administrations, probate clerks oi Mexican extraction. the books are models of systematic and competent record and neat in the extreme. lsidor Armijo, the present clerk, was called upon to testify and place his records on inspection. Beveridge looked over them awhile and finding one in Span ish, remarked: An. 1 see you keep your records in Spanish.' The clerk replied: "I make yerbatum copy Of deeds. II a deed is presented in Span ish, l copy it in Spanish; l: it is French, I copy it in French; likewise if it is in English,' Beveridge then asked: Well, you are Mexican are you not:" Armiio replied: 'I am an American citizen" "Your ancestors were Mexicans. were they not?' My ancestors were Mexicans. Yours l understand were Dutch, but that hasn't anything to do with American citizen ship" Beveridge turned red, while taries smiled.-Rio Grande Rcpubi- can.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS.'
News Items" a Century Ago

DUNCAN, January ?. 1903

EDITOR ERA-I spent Christmas at Stecple Rock, with Sanford Robinson and family. Among many other inter- esting things be has an old family bible. centuries old. Under it's cover I discovered a newspaper which among other things contained an account of the burial of George Washington.
 Thinking it might interest your readers not only from a literary stand point, but as the landmark of the pro- gress of civilization and commerce and the wonderful growth of our great country, I made some copy. and if you think it worth while to insert it iu your paper, I have no doubt it will be q revelation to many of your readers, a. 1t was to me.
 The paper, as you will see, was printed one hundred and two years ago. Many people sigh and wish for the good old times. l am thankful I enjoy the blessings of today instead or that Of the date of the paper.
