WHEN taxes are pail early it
is an indication that people are
prosperous. The collection of
taxes is always an indication of
business condition. VIII n peo-
pie are making money they pay
their taxes promptly, even liber-
ally, but when they are not
prosperous they put off the evil
day as long as possible. Taxes
in this city and the town of
Washburn are coming in fully
as well as in previous years, and
this in spite of the fact that they
are higher in the city than they
have ever been.

ASSISTANT Postmaster -Cener-
al Hitchcock has figured out a
new salary system for postal
clerks and letter carriers all
over the country that will be OF
interest to thousands of en-
ployees. He shows in his an.
nual report just submitted that
it is very difficult to keep good
clerks in the postal service.
About II per cent of the clerks
resign annually, while 8 per cent
of the letter carriers also quit
the public for private service.
He therefore recon mendS that
there should be graduated sa-
larry roll beginning with 5000
and running from that to $500,
and then by jumps of 800 to
$1,000 per annum. He wishes to
promote the clerks and carriers
regularly from 5000 to $500
grade according to their term of
service and after that to make
their promotions depend entirely
on efficiency and competitive ex-
aminationS. 1t is believed in
this way that it will be possible
to get better grade of men in
the service and keep them there.

Along the Grand Canyon on the south side, extending for some thir- ty miles south of the canyon from Bright Angel, is section of coun- try which contains deposits of cop per ore, which for the most part lies in pockets, and is easily mined. These deposits number of years ago were all located, but could not then be worked at a profit. Recently, since the start ing of a smelter at Humboldt, there has been created a demand for this ore on account of the fluxes 1t contains, and now ore is being shipped at good profit and mining has taken a boom in Coco nino county. North of the Colo rado river, in the Buckskin noun tains, are similar copper deposits, but the distance from a railroad prohibits their being worked. In the Navajo reservation there is also large deposits of copper, and the claims are owned by local par ties who expect to dispose of them and are now entertaining a proposition to purchase from east ern parties. Coconino may some day have paying copper mines within her borders.

Fast Mail VIII Be Taken of.

The Santa Fe fast mail which now runs west of Newton, Kan, leaving Kansas City at 2::20 a. m. will be discontinued after June l6.
 The mail train makes connections at Newton with the Wichita line and the southwestern lines, and also train No. 9 which leaves Kansas City at l0:30 p. m.
 The cause of this decision is given by the operating officials at Topeka, as due to the general movement throughout the west in annulling all fast trains on account of adverse state legislation.
 On that date the two Santa Fe limiteds eastbound and westbound, will have their time increased, making it a number of hours longer to reach Chicago from California.

LINES TO TIE MEMORY OF MISS
 FLORENCE SiPE.

A precious one from us has gone, A voice we loved is stilled, A place is vacant in her home Which never can be filled. She died, and is there cause for woe That she has left our midst? Ah no! Since her freed spirit felt no gloom When sheldescended to the tomb. God in His wisdom has recalled The boon that he hath given; And though the body moulders here, The soul is safe in heaven.

The territorial board of equali- zation at it's session last week raised the valuation of railroads twenty-two per cent over last year. The total valuation of assessable railroad property as fixed by the board is So,o4I,o88.88. The raise of the railroad valuation and the increased valuations of mines under the new law are expected to reduce the rate of taxation so that the railroads will pay no more taxes than last year. Higher val uation of taxable property and a lower tax rate will be the expected result, and that 1t will benefit the smaller taxpayers--a matter yet to be demonstrated.

Every Man liIs Own Dieter

The average man cannot afford to employ a physician for every slight ailment or injury that may occur in his family, nor can he afford to neglect them. as so slight an injury as the scratch of a pin has been known to cause the loss of limb. Hence every man must from neces- sity be his own doctor for this class of ailment, Success often depends upon prompt treatment. which can only be had when suitable medicines are kept at hand. Chamberlain's remedies have been in the market for many years and enjoy a good reputation.

The Great Song Town.

Philadelphia prints more than one
quarter of all the music N the United
States, and the total amount of it is
six times as great as it was Is years
ago But, while Europe shows no such
increase as that, this country's total
output is still less than half that of
Leipsic, Germany, and less than that
Of several other European cities In
this city the amount OF instrumental
music printed used to exceed that Of
vocal music. This was due, it is said,
to the cheapening Of pianos in recent
years and the popularity of banjo and
guitar music. Now, however, the
banjo, at least, has lost some of its
popularity, and the gain in vocal music
until it is about equal to the instru-
mental in quantity-is attributed to
the current prevalence of musical com
ed1es. In vocal music the comic and
the sentimental keep about even. The
gain IN religious music has not been so
great as that in other 1ines.-Philadel-
phia Record.
