Special to Review.)

TOMBSTONE, July 16.-The ac- sessment rolls of Cochise county will this year show an increase over last year of nearly million and half, the exact amount can not be deter mined at the present time, but the rolls this year will figure close to the 1O.5O0,O0O mark, while fast year the roll amounted to between eight and half million to nine.
 The rate of taxation will no doubt be reduced some. but cannot be re- duced much unless the territorial board reduces the territorial tax of su cents per hundred. It is understood from members of the territorial board of equalization that nothwithstanding the increase placed on the railroads by the boards and the increase that the various counties will show that the territorial board does not intend to reduce the territorial tax. The matter hardly seems just, especially when the fees from the articles of in- corporation filed with the territorial auditor are more than paying the ex- penses of the administration, that the same high rate of 90 cents per hun dred should be placed against the tax payers of the territory. The tax of Cochise county could be materially reduced if the territorial tax was re- duced to a reasonable basis.
