Every patriotic citizen of Ari- zona was glad when the legisla- ture appropriated $10,OO0 to pay for a monument for Hon. w. 0. O'Neil, who lost his life on San Juan hill when leading his company against the Spaniards. Arizona never had more popu-. lar citizen than Buckley" O'Neil, nor one who was more intensely loyal to Arizona. He came to Arizona a boy looking for a job as a printer, he left tito defend and uphold the glory of his coun- try. During his life in Arizona he stood at all times for those things which would upbuild and advance the interests of the terri tory. He was a brilliant news paper man and i'll the columns Ol the big papers of the country he always had access for his interes- i ting stories of Arizona.-Interna-

WHEN THE
 LIEN ATTACHES
The Opinion in The Aztec Land and Cattle
 Company Case

There appears to have been misunderstanding regarding the decision of the supreme court last Thursday in a very import ant and interesting suit, the Az tee Land and Cattle Company, appellant. against the county of Navajo, in which the judgement of the lower court was affirmed. The facts leading up to the act ion were as follows: In May, 1886, the Atlantic & Pacific rail- road for a valuable consideration made. executed and delivered to tie land and cattle company its warranty deed to certain lands known as indemnity lands to the grant to the railroad company and commonly called lieu lands. The railroad company had regu- larly selected all such lands long before but the selection was not approved by thc secretary ot the interior until the 3Oth day of March, 1903. The lands were assessed for taxes by the county of Navajo between the first Mon- day in February and the first Monday in June of the year 1903 and the taxes were paid by the appellant under an agreement or stipulation. This action was therefore brought by the appel lant to recover from the county the taxes so paid.
 In passing upon the case the court found that no interest Wa: acquired in the selection of lier lands which would subject then to local taxation until approva of the selection had been mad' by the secretary of the interior So the question to be determined was whether the lands to wh1cl the appellant had acquired right on March 80, 1903, wer rightly assessed by the count. for taxes that year.
 The opinion quoting the law of the territory bearing on tn question continues as follows:
 Ut will be observed that ou statutes provide that betwee the first Monday in Februar and the first Monday in June each year the assessor shall lis and assess the real and persona property subject to taxatlol and that no definite day IS ike at which time such property sha be subject to assessment and ta
 ation. In thls respect our la
 differs from that of many, if nc
 nearly all, the states where sut
 definite day is fixed and esta Q
Holbrook argus., 1905-04-08

lished bv law; and the numerous decisions in such jurisdictions holding that property acquired after such fixed day is not sub- feet to taxation for that year, have no direct application to the case before us. Under our law 1t is clearly the duty of the assessor between the dates named in the statute to assess property sub- feet to taxation that he may find in the county, and in the absence in the statute of any fixed date at which property then owned shall be assessed for given year, it is his duty within that time to assess for that year all property subject to taxation. whether ac- quired prior or subsequent to the first day of February. Nor does the fact that the statute provides that the lien of the tax shall at tach on the first day of February, while it may by custom afford a convenient date for the vendor and vendee to determine as be- tween themselves who shall take the burden of the payment of the tax, make it, in the absence of such express provision as we have referred to, any less the du- ty of the assessor to assess, dur ing the period while such assess
 ment is in progress, all such prop erty as he may find to be taxa
 ble and untaxed, though acquir-
 ed by the owner subsequent to
 the date when the lien attaches
 The property in question, there.
 fore, though acquired by the
 appellant subsequent to Febru
 ary first, and assessed prior te
 the last mentioned date, was le gally subject to taxation fol
 that year.
 Our opinion IS in accord witl the views expressed by the su s preme court of the United State , in the case of Hunnewell vs. Gas , county, 22 Wallace, 464; and b, 1 the supreme court of Nebraska a under similar statute, in the cas ,. of Jones vs. Seward county l The judgement of the distric h court is affirmed.-Republlcar q April 4.

al diplomatic instructions required
him to report to the state department
even rumorsl which might assist the
American government in shaping for

qnently not under obligations to prove
the truth of the Loomis accusations.

New York. May 16.--Mr. and Mrs.
John ID. Rockefeller attended services
at the Fifth Avenue Baptist church
Sunday. DR.. Johnson, the pastor,
preached on the Importance of doing
away with creeds and dogmas and the
organization of a great universal
church where all Christians could wor-
ship the one living God. In a word,
he said the time was at hand to con-
solidate all creeds into one.
After the services, Dr. Johnson and
Rockefeller discussed the sermon.
Excuse me for speaking sharply"
said Rockefeller, "but when we first
began work in consolidating the COM
petitive system some one said: 1T
can be done. 1t must be done. 1t has
got to come and to-day we are vim
dictated in our Judgment, for we can
show the world the progress achieved
by consolidation and it's benefits to

BAD FREIGHT WRECKS

In freight wreck, which oc-
Cured on the south approach to

cars in the middle of the train
were piled up, telescoped and
thrown over the embankment.
The cause of the wreck is being
investigated by the railroad Of

been due,to the breaking down
of the forward truck of the first

FOR SALE
Of DARK TOBACCO CROP
Committee at Work on Contract by
Which 10 Control Crop.

Hopkinsville, KY, May TO-
An important meeting of the
Executive Committee of the
Dark District Planters Protec-
tive Association was held here
this afternoon.
The feature of the meeting was
the report of Chairman Ewing,
who recently returned from New
York, where he spent several
weeks in the interest of the as
ISOLATION. While declining to
give the result of his trip in de-
tails, the committee expresses
itself as jubilant over the out
come, and confident that the
fight of the farmers against the
Tobacco Trust is practically won.
A committee was appointed to
draw up a contract with G..
Reuzins, of New York, in the in
terest of the association and it
reported that the entire 1904
crop of the members of the or
ganization is involved in the
transaction.
Chairman Ewing was instruct
ed to forward to all the county
chairmen pledges for the 1905
crop, and President Fort says
that the signing of these pledges
will sound the death knell of the
trust. The Executive Committee
claims that 80 per cent of the
1904 crop is now pledged to the
association. The committeeman
present stated that the trust, an
ticipating a movement of this
sort, was already Offering farm
ers in some sections $40 all

WARNER MUST DIE
On the GalIows Friday. Gov. Beckham
viii Not Interfere.

Frankfort, KY, May 10th.
Concerning another effort to be
made to get Gov. Beckham to re-
open the case of George Warner,
under sentence of death for the
murder of Pulaski Leeds, in
Louisville, it can be stated that
such an effort will be useless, as
the Governor has very carefully
gone over the entire case, and is
convinced that it is not one de-
serving clemency, and he will
not take it up again.
Monday Warner for the first
time showed any signs of realiz-
ing the gravity of the situation.
He talked freely as usual of mat
tiers in general aside from his
own affairs, and he displayed no
alarming symptoms of a nervous
breakdown; but his head was
bowed and his eyes averted as if
in abject hopelessness. His pas
tor, the Rev. S. S. Waltz, of the
First English Lutheran church,
visited him again yesterday af-
ternoon and had long consulta-
tion with Warner, who was glad
to see him, as he always is.
The Rev. George F. Herr,
prison evangelist, says that War
ner's attitude is puzzling and in
applicable to him. Warner at
tends religious services, as do the
other prisoners, but he has never
taken an active part and is APP
parently not in the least affected
by the exercises. Attempts to
draw him out on the question of
his preparedness result always in
the same reply: 81 am ready to
go. | bear malice toward no
one. | never did anyone inten-
tional injury $3.50.
Today Warner will probably
be placed in solitary confinement
and the death watch will be
maintained until the Sheriff
takes charge of the prisoner Fri
day morning.
The death warrant, which was
mailed by the Governor to Sheriff
Schmitt March 81, following the
dismissal of a petition for re-
hearing before the Court of APP
peals, will be read to Warner by
the Sheriff. The death warrant
commands the execution to be
made some time between sunrise
and sunset on Friday, May 10,
but according to custom it will
take place at sunrise.
