Copper Queen to Fight Tax Raise

As predicted at the time the Ter ritorial Board of Equalization made its last raise on the assessment of the mines in the territory. the Cop per Queen has gone to the courts in an effort to defeat the raise, and the annual tax case had again come to the front. The question will again be threshed out in the courts as to whether the Territorial Board of Equalization has the right to raise the valuations of the patented mining properties in some of the counties in the Territory and allow others to remain as they were turned in by the Assessors.
 Suit has been filed in the District Court at Tombstone by Attorneys Herring, Sorin and Ellinwood for the Copper Queen company against Cochise county and J. N. Canes, as ex-officio Tax Collector of the county, to prevent the county from collecting the taxes levied upon the patented mining claims of the company on account of the 400 per cent raise made by the Territorial Board of Equalization and subse- quently placed upon the duplicate assessment roll of Cocohise county by the Board of Supervisors.
