SAFETY IN RAILROAD TRAVEL

Increased safety in railroad travel is one of the urgent needs of the day. Railroads have never carried so many people, never run so many trains, never put on SO many cars, never em> ployed so many men. never covered so much territory and never been so pop ular as a means of getting about as today; yet with all this has come greater danger to human life, more accidents: more serious accidents, more people hurt and more damages inflict- ed. The simple truth seems to be that the railroad managers are not suffi- cieltly alive to the sacredness Of hu- man life. This is the most precious Of all earthly things. It is something that once destroyed, can never be replaced, and something the injury to which may lead to results of most serious conse- quences. There is a popular impress sion in Europe that railroad accidents

ARIZONA ASSESSORS
 MEET IN CONVENTION
Discussion of Means to Establish a
 Uniformity or Valuations.

Pursuant to the invitation sent out by Auditor John H. Page, eight of the county assessors of the territory gath cred in Phoenix yesterday and held an all day session over. matters interest ing them directly and incidentally every tax payer in Arizona. Those pres ent were:
 C. l. HOuck, Navajo county; Walter Brown, Mohave county; B. A. Cameron, Coconino county; B. J. O'Reiny, Co., chise county; Gus Livingston, Yuma county; Frank Luke, Maricopa county; D. J. Sullivan, Yavapai county; L. w. Wakefield. Pima county.
 MT. Birdno, the Graham county as- sessOr, expected to be present but was unavoidably detained and communica- tion from other of the absentees was at hand showing them to be in sympathy with the conference. It is believed therefore that all the county assessors are interested and would have been here if possible.
 The gentlemen got together early in the forenoon and there was no time lost until the close of the conference which was late in the afternoon. Au.- ditor Page presided and Attorney Gen eral Clark was present as an adviser in legal questions. The discussions were thorough, in many cases animated but in no case acrimonious and the meet ing was believed by all to have been one that will result in great good to the entire territory. It was designed to bring out of the practices in the various counties a system of greater uniformity to which all could adhere so that there would be uniform taxation in all counties and a consistent Talua- ton be placed on the same class of property in each county. In the dis cussion every kind and class of prop erty was considered as it was reached and all the straw threshed over. the conference not being called for the
Arizona republican., 1906-02-02

of different classes of property and for the guidance of all the assessors and a few simple rules were. agreed upon and adopted.
 One rule or conclusion arrived at be- tween the assessors was that in the event any assessor shall or county board of equalization shall return any kind of property at an inadequate val nation, making it necessary for the territorial board of equalization to raise the valuation as a whole, the respon- sibility for it shall rest on the local board or assessor of that county. The point is that the territorial board can not deal with individual property own CTS and if if srall be manifest that the valuation in certain county should be raised it could only be because the local county officials had not done their work thoroughly. The rule seems to have been made as an incentive to each individual assessor to try harder to list all property and to maintain the uniform valuations to be placed by the rules adopted by the conference.
 Altogether the people are to be con graduated for the interest taken in the for better system of taxation. by all the assessors who have earned the gratitude of their respective con stituents for attending the conference and devoting themselves so earnestly to the work in hand

discussion of the taxation of any par ticular class of property.
 One of the most important things decided upon was to adhere so far as practicable to the statuatory stand ard of assessing everything at it's cash value. There has heretofore existed Q. practice Of placing a valuation on prop erty for assessment purposes, smaller than the estimated cash value of the property. it having been the custom rather than any desire to deviate from the statute. It is admitted that the cash value of any property is apt to to be lower than the -alue placed upon 1t by the owner, and in order not to err against the property owner there has been a tendency to rate many kinds of property too low. The result of the new practice of assessing property at it's full cash valuc should result in very greatly increasing the total valuation of the territory. However ft is not nec- essarily an indication that property owners will have to pay more taxes and # anything it means smaller taxes for there is just SO much money to raise each year and if everything is placed on a uniform basis and closely listed up, the rate will be much smaller and SOHle pIODeILN VIII pc llSIeQ that per haps is now evading taxation entirely
 The entire forenoon was devoted to a discussion or the technical questions the assessors have to deal with, some being points of law and others ,tues- tions of practice. The assessors desired to ascertain both their rights and their duties in the various complicated sit nations that sometimes confront them These were brought out very clearly in the interchange of experiences and the attorney general made clear to them other points on which they were in doubt.
 The afternoon session began by a dis cussiOn of the best ways and means for the securing of a uniform assess ment in each county, on the same kind
 orOuerty, so there would not appear such a startling difference in valua- tiOn as has occurred sometimes on the same class of property in two adjoin- ing counties. Special attention was paid to those classes of property in which there is most, likely to he a disparity Then followed a discussion as to the most effective means of ascertaining the cash value

are more frequent in America than abroad, because the American trains are run at a higher rate of speed. This contention is hardly bOurne out by the facts, since with the exception of one or two recently established trains. the fastest trains in the world are opera ted abroad. Tke numerous accidents are due not so much to the rapidity with which American trains are run as to the carelessness with which they are operated, or the indifference with which the American public at large views the railroad. An accident that involves a person not an employe of the railroad or not passenger may be due to the injured ones carelessness. An accident to a passenger is mostly due to carelessness in railroad man asemept-From American Homes and Gardehs for February.

ADVICE TO LAWYERS.

From Frederick Trevor Hilrs "I;incoIn the Lawyer" in the February Century
 Discourage litigation" was his ad vice to lawyers. Persuade your neigh DOTS to compromise whenever they can. Point to them how the nominal winner is ofter the real Ioser-in fees expenses and waste of time. As q peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of becoming a good man. There will always be enough business Never stir up a litigation. A worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this. Who can be more nearly fiend that he who habitualIv oVernauls the register of deeds in search Of defects in titles. whereon to stir up strife and put money in his pocket? A moral tone ought to be in- fused into the profession which should eIlVe such men out of it."
 It has been truly said that those words should be posted in every law office in the land and it will be seen when Lincoln's record is fully exam ined, that it was not a mere tneorist who wrote them. but an active prac- toner of wide experience who lived up to his teaching.

Eat What
 You Like
Don't StarVe or Diet, but Use M-o-na,
 and Cure Your Stomach Troubles.

Don't StarVe or Diet, but Use Mi-o-na,
 and Cure Your Stomach Troubles.
 The average treatment of stomach troubles consists of a rigid diet list. which often half starves the patient Of course it would be foolish for any one who knows that. some foods arc positively harmful and poisonous to continue eating them, even while fol- lowing the Mi-o-na treatment, but in ordinary cases of stomach troubles 1t is not necessary to starve or diet if Mi-o-na is faithfully used, a tablet be- fore each meal
 This scientific remedy for the cure of stomach troubles, acts upon the whole digestive system, and strength ems the organs so that they are able to digest any food that is eaten with out fear of distress. If you suffer from loss of appetite, belching Of gases, sour taste in the mouth, fur red tongue, severe pains in the region of the stomach. depression of spirits, bad dreams, lack of energy, a stomach cough, offensive breath. headaches, back aches, loss of strength and weight, you can be assured that these troubles are all due to imperfect diges ton.
 Strengthen the stomach by taking a Mi-O-na tablet before each meal, and soon you will gain in weight, strength will return, and your food will give nOurishment so that the rich red blood will carry good health to every part of the system.
 H. Goodman has so much confidence in the power of Mi-O-na to cure stom- ach troubles and resulting ills, that he gives a guarantee with every 30 cent box to refund the money unless it cures.

OUR LANGUAGE UNIFORM.
While Great Britain, for Instance, Has
 Many Different Languages.

From H. NJ Kingery's 'The Language of the Map" in February St Nicholas.
 It has been observed that the lan- guage spoken in the United States is remarkably uniform. True there are many dialects, but Great Britain. less in area than any one of a half dozen states, contains such very diff ferent languages as English. Welsh and Gaelic of the Scottish Highlands to say nothing of the provincial dia- lects of Cornwall and Yorkshire and the unique speech of the London cock ney; while in this country with its vast expanse of territory. it's settle ment by Spanish. French. Dutch and Swedish colOnists and it's millions oc Immigrants, drawn from nearly every country, large and small all over the world, there is far greater uniformity Of speech than in any other land Of equal area and population.
 The causes can be readily seen. The public schools have made us a nation of readers. and the press has supplied books and papers without limit. Press associations have done their part to- ward giving q uniform and fairly good tone to the newspaper language of the day. The telegraph and telephone and cHedp postage nave brought ulS tant parts of the country into quick and easy communication, and have so aided in teaching a common language. The railroad has penetrated every corner of the land and made us q nation of trav- elers. Countless human shuttles are thus thrown daily across the land in every direction, carrying with them the threads of thought and speech and do- ing their part to make one pattern of the whole. No doubt, our maps which still present so many different kinds of names, will in time lose the strange ness and the foreign air that are so noticeable now
