4 SUPERIOR COURT

A new court bill is now under prep sration by Hon. Selim Franklin, of Tucson, and ex-District Attorney Jones, of Stafford. It is upon the same lines as the 1ill drawn by these gentle men, several years ago, which was passed hy the house of representatives and came near being a law at that time. The present bill confers the same jurisdiction in all criminal cases, and gives the conrt the jurisdiction in civil cases that is BOW exercised by the distric tcort. The bill provides for a judge in all first class counties, and authorizes the judge to hold court in any other county on the request of any other judge, thus giving the smaller counties the benefits of the law. Ii provides that court may be held three times year where the congested con. dition ot litigation requires it. and adjourns and special sessions may be held on the order of the judge. It is to be called the superior court and has long been needed. It gives the people the privilege of electing their own judges, the same as in the states. Prot ate jurisdiction is conferred upon the superior court and the present pro, bate judges become clergs of that court, with the same fees as now pro vided by law for probate and district courts.
 In the event of single or joint state, hood this law will not be interfered with, although it is probable the supe rior court judges will have their jnris. diction extended oyer fixed circuits.
 Until the next election, the first judges will be appointed by the gov. ernor and confirmed by the council. - Guardian.

SMALL VS. LARGE COUNTIES
 New Mexico has twenty five counties with sn area of 122, 58O square miles. Arizona has only thirteen counties with an area of 113,O0 square miles. By the census of 900 the population of Arizona was 122.OO while by the same census the population of New Mexico was 1856 Thus the popu- lation of New Mexico would give to its twenty five counties an average population of 1900, while the average population of Arizona's thirteen coun- ties amounted to 93s4 according to the last census. According to the New Mexican, published at Santa Fe the making of small counties in our neigh bor territory has been found to be satisfactory to all concerned. We take the following fropl that paper:
 "New Mexico now has twenty five counties within its borders. Some of them are larger than good sized eastern states. There is room for several new counties. There should be no opposi- tion to their creation where the people want such, are sufficient in mum Der and haveSenough taxable property to sustain a county properly, efficiently and economically. Small counties are better and more cheaply administered than are large ones. This has been proven in New Mexico since 1883 when the county of Sierra was organ ized. Since then eleven more coun. ties have been created and all are doing well.

Senator Foraker, Of Ohio, is fighting for an amen 1ment of the joint state
 hood bill which will pull its stinger. so far as Arizona is concerned. For aker asks that an amendment be added to the bill provided that the adoption of the new states constitution will depend upon majority of the people in each of the new state's constitution will depend upon a majority of the people in each of the two territories voting for it separately. This would be all that Arizona could ask for; it Mould be the death of joint statehot d

THE MORMONS

The Santa Fe New Mexican takes no stock in the bugaboos indulged in certain quarters about one of the dan gers of statehood for Arizona and New Mexico being that the Mormons would soon be in political control. This is the n5eIest rot; the number of Nor mons in Arizona is not sufficient to interfere in any way with tie control of the government. The Mormon peo- pie have done the pioneer work of digging canals and reclsiming some of the principal valleys to fruitful and profitable cultivation along the streams of the territory. they are hard work ing and progressive people as anyone will say who visits their settlements in Cochise. Graham and Marloopa enun- ties and sees the handsome school houses, churches and many beautiful homes. As class they are economi- cal in the,r habits and always self supportinng. They are not a unit in politics by any means. A majority of the Mormons in Arizona are democrats, its true, but among them many promi- nent churchmen are loyal to the reprb- lican party. There is no occasion for fearing that the Mormons will ever become. strong enough to dominate either Arizona or New Mexico or both.

Senator Bard has pndone much of the harm he did to Arizona in the senate two years ago when he made his speech against the passage of the omnibus statehood bill We fear, however, Arizona will be unable to repair the gap 1t made in Bard's sena- toriai fence in California during the campaign last summer The speech delivered Friday by Senator Bard in opposition to the joint statehood bill shoudI be appreciated by the people of Arizona, as it was an exhibition of true repentance for his sins of two years ago.

As soon as this result is achieved, the

will then be unable TO offer any oppo-

RAILROADS PAY
 ENORMOUS TAXES Meeting of Assessment Board Attracts Interest BOND ISSUE IS POPULAR Large Part of the Alabama Issue Will Probably Be Taken By the
 People of the
 State.
BOND ISSUE IS POPULAR

Montgomery, February 4.-(Special.)- The meeting of the state board of as- sessment this week adjourned to Febru- arr 21, has attracted anew the public mind to the enormous value in dollars of the interests that are considered by the mem- bers of the body, the governor, the state auditor and treasurer and secretary of state These include the railroads. tele- graph lines, long distance phone lines, ex- press companies and sleeping car lines. Tne express and sleeping car companies are reached only by a privilege tax pro vision, and by the counties if they have property. By the returns for the year end ing September 30 last, 1t is found that of the $321, 900, 900 valuation of property in Alabama, the railroads pay on $52,00O 900, besides licenses, which amounted in 19O3-4 to s13s17.
 n the year ending September 3e, 1903, that being the last printed report of the state auditor, It is shown that there were in the state 4l31 miles of main line and 1OS2 miles of side tracks and branches, making 52l3 in all dt is now 5450) valued at $49, ,977, ,734, and on which state tax of sz63S SIT were paid not including values of depots and section houses, assessed by the counties, of $1,02j064, paying a tax of s5e37 to the state and grand sotal valua- ticn of SEQ, ,997, 79S, paying to the state s269,- 51t To this is to be added $3,S17 for license making the states cash returns from the railroads alone $2S2 331. These fig ures are for year ago on a valuation of over S2 800, 900 less than is now the case, which would make the showing for this year very much larger
 During the year ending September 30, 1904 the twenty-five railroad companies of the state earned, according to returns to the railroad commissioners, $50. 053. 50 per mile. with operating expense of s. 561 % and net average per mile of Sl,502.57. The per cent of expenses to earnings was 70 47 For the year closing September 30. 1903, the total gross earnings of the roads of the state was $27, ,615, 56S; operating eX pense, $20.S45526; net, s677O,OH.
