THE Arizona board OF equalization
got after the mining interests OF the
territory last week. The board had
let the big railroads of easy, and had
to raise some properties to get of even.
A motion was made 20 raise the min
ing properties 100 per cent and upward.
This was defeated by a tie vote. After
the vote was taken the board adjourn
ed for the day Governor Kibbey iuvit-
ed A. s. Donau, the member from
Pima county, to resign, which he
promptly did. The governor then ap
pointed General Wilson, OF Tucson, in
his place. After the general took his
seat II did not take long to pass the
resolution, which provided that the
patented mines In Graham county
should be raised in valuation 400 per
cent, 10 Cochise county 1900 per cent,
and in other mining counties from 100
TO 500 per cent. The patented mines
OF Graham county we're listed at over
81, 0OO, 900, out OF a total taxable valua-
tion Of some 81, 1000, 900. This raise will
make the valuation OF the patented
mines in that county over ten millions
Of dollars, more than twice as much
as all the other taxable property 10
the county. This action OF the board,
II it is sustained by the courts, will
put a stop to patenting mining prop
erty in Arizona. Mr.. Donau gave as
his reason for refusing to vote for the
resolution, that 1t was unfair. While
he did not dispute that the valuation
of some OF the mines should be raised
he claimed that because Senator
Clark, and some of the other rich
mine owners did not put a fair valua-
ton on their property that vas no
sign that every owner OF a patented
mine In the county was an equal tax
dodger. He considered the raising OF
the valuation Of all the patented mines
In a county by an arbitrary multiple
TO have been unfair.

For some time the people in Arizona
have been quiet regarding the govern
meut officials. AS a general thing the
Arizonans are busy trying TO get some
government official removed, but since
Governor Brody was appointed the ter
rltory has been quiet. Now trouble has
broken out again. Recently q man
named Tucker from Iowa was appoint
ed district judge, and was assigned to
the counties Of Pinal, ella and Ora
ham. He has not given satisfaction,
and charges have been preferred
against him, The most startling charge
Is that he occasionally sat with bis
feet cooked up on a table while listen
ing TO a lawyer argue. The lawyer OBJ
jected to talking to the judges feet
instead OF his head. The charges were
sent TO Washington, and the depart
ment has sent a special officer out Il
investigate the judges feet.

ARIZONA is being covered by petit
tlons protesting against joint state
hood. The league has sent them to
every p~ostofice in the territory and
asked the postmasters to secure sig
natures. Some OF the postmasters are
doing it aud others claim this is Of the
political work prohibited by the rules
OF the department. The petition was
drafted by Wiley Jones, aud treats
New Mexico very respectfully as COM
pared with the way many OF the pap
ers do when writing about joint state
hood. On this point it reads: 1--WE
entertain for the people of u sister
territory Of New Mexico the kindest
feeling and sympathise with them in
their efforts for admission as a state
OF the Union, yet we sincerely believe
that the union Of the two territories
as one state would be inimical to the
hest and highest interests Of the peo-
pie OF both, and because OF the condi-
tioDs OF our history, laws customs and
races, and because OF the geographical
divisions which naturally separate and
divide us such a union would be par.
ticularly harmful TO the people OF
Arizona" Many Of the men who sign
the petition have no hopes Of securing
anything but joint statehood, and des-
plte their boasted opposition to 1t will
vote for 1t rather than remain a ter.
