ANNUAL REPORT OF
LAND COM MISSIONER

as noted heretofore the actual increase
during the year covered by this report
was from S63, S36.6S to $l~12,513.6l, rs
per cent. The comparative statement
Of the state treasurer shows that
turned into the treasury from April /,
1905, to March 81. 1906, s115, 354.96, an
increase over 1905 of nearly s35 900, or
47h per cent
More Days of School.
This has resulted in a material in
crease to the smaller districts of the
state, meaning more days of school to
some and less taxation to others. Some
of them received this year nearly dou-
bic the amount distributed in 1904.
The counties in which most of the
school lands are rented have had the
bulk of their moneys returned to them
in this manner
The correspondence of this Office has
increased so largely that it deserves
mention. During the month of Febru-
airy, 1906, $50 letters per day were fire.
| quently received; for the month the
average was about 55 daily, including
Sundays.
Nearly All Lands Rented.
The granted and indemnity lands be
ing generally rented by reason of their
selection in favorable locations, it has
been hard work t increase the rented
area, but / believe | have succeeded in
renting nearly all the available lands,
and as shown by the annexed table,
have secured an increase of % per cent
in income from lands not before rented
or upon which leases had been allowed
to expire.
More Increases Looked For.
Further increases will come in due
time from the gradual increase in de
mand and consequent increase in rent
al valuation and from the exchange of
granted lands now producing but a
small rental for others more favorably
located. Respectfully submitted,
ROBERT p. FULLER,
Commissioner of Pubic Lands.

Sciatica cured After Twenty Years OF
Torture.

For more than twenty years Mr.. j.
B. Massey, of 1922 Clinton st. Mime
apolis, Mimi, was tortured by sciatica.
The pain and suffering which he endur-
ed during this time is beyond compre-
hension. Nothing gave him any perma-
nent relief until he used Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. One application OF h a
liniment relieved the pain and made
sleep and rest possible, and less than
one bottle has effected a permanent
cure If troubled with sciata or rheu-
matism why not try a 25-cent bottle or
Pain Balm and e for yourself how
quickly it relieves the pain. For sale

DISTRICT COURT.

The famons mining suit of Beemer vs. Pease, which had been on trial for twelve days, was ended last Saturday, the jury returning a verdict of one dol lar damages for plaintiff. The court withheld decision upon the annulment of contract
 Judge Street of counsel for Pease made motion for new trial, which was also taken under advisement by the court.
 As has been stated, the litigation be- tween Beemer and Pease grew out of a mining deal involving property in the QuartzSite district. According to a contract between them Beemer was 10 pay $2,500000 for the property, and he made one payment of SS5, ,0O0. The contract was entered into by Beemer upon representations by Pease and up on the report of an expert upon the value of ore samples taken from the property.
 T hO N4iNSS S"ulOlJo Ol lDCCIlSE we're UIlcU the representations were false and that the samples had been su bstituted. Be- fore making this discovery, however, Beemer claimed to have invested alto Gether about $350, 600. Several months ago be undertook to remove the ma- chinery from the property and was en- joined by Pease, who afterward threw thc property into the hands of q re- celver. Beemer had Pease arrested for embezzlement, but this case never got beyond the justice's court, where Pease was discharged upon ppelimina- ry examination. Pease then. brought an action to compel the fullfllment of the contract and Beemer filed a coun- ter suit for the annulment Of the con tract and for damages. By mutual agreement the latter case was, tried. the other being eliminated, and the re- suit Is in favor of BeeEer. Tn the meantime Pease has filed an action for $23,OO0 damage against Beemer be- cause of the charge of embe5zlemcnt This case, it is thought, as well as other pending litigation will be decid- ed in Tucson.

Norton incl dentaI!y touched on the Papago hi e, with which he is quite familiar. IL is To- ca;ed ab) put ten miles south of Mohawk, near the Sonora lice. That property is going to be ;s gold mine," said he. 'The Papago Mining Company has bought @ jen-stamp mill but it hasn't been shipped oat yet, though lam On deal with the company to haul it from the railroad station to the mine when it does come. In order to do this I shall have to build q road, which alone will be costly as the country is very rough. Not much publicity has been given the Papago property, but have examined it and it is certainly valua- ble. The ore I think runs S25 to $50 to the ton and there is big body of it.
