DEATHS IN MESA COUNTY

A careful compiling of the deaths
throughout the county for the last
four years shows an even more sat
isfactory low death rate than was
furnished the Democrat exclusively
two weeks ago by City Physician He

made at that time on the report, and
the Democrat has gone deeper into
the matter and secured the follow
ing data of deaths i'm Mesa county,
which has population of 10000,
making the rate extremely low:

La circular numcro 81 del de-
partamento de Tesoreria, ha
producido entire Ell elemento

gusto.
Sea por la forma defectuosa
en- que esta redactada 6 porque
el espiritu de la circular sea Ell
que han pretendido poner en-
vigor algunos agentes del fsco
es 10 cierto que la circular del
Tesorero ha producido en- la OPT
nion Ell disgusto que anotamos,
va que evoca y reCrudece ante
riores desmanes de que han sido
victimas los colonos contribu-
yentes. mientras que han desf.
lado por el departamento de la
Tesoreria los predecessors de
Mr.. Gromer.
Seg1n nuestros informes, Ell
sabado han sido embargadas al
gunas propiedades que no adeu.
dan al fsco mas que Ell pago de
la contribution del primer Sc
mestre.
Y este va no es solo resucitar
las truculencias pasadas, sino
llevarlas a TN grado de exacer-
bamiento enemigos, de antipa-
tico recrudecimiento.
Antcs, no sc embargaban las
propiedades hasta que transcu-
rria Ell segundo semestre y Ell
plazo breve que siempre sc ha
senalado, como prorroga indis-
pensable. Lo que Sc hacia con
los contribuyentes morosos, era
aplicarles Ell uno por ciento de
recargo, cuando dejaban de pa
gar q tempo la contribution
del primer semestre.
PerO ahOra, sea como hemOs
dicho, por defecto de redaccion
de la circular numero sesenta V
unO, o sea una mala intelligent
cia de los subalternos del Teso-
TerO, Sc ha rOto con la practica
esta blecida, sc ha alterado cuan.
to estaba en- uso, Sc ha prescin-
dido del procedimiento usual Y
Sc ha procedido desde luego al
embargo de bienes de los con
trlbuyentes que no han pagado
Ell primer semestre.
Suponemos que a estas horas
va Sc habran dictado por la Te-
sereria las ordenes precisas,
aclarando el confuse parrafo de
la circular que sc haya presta-
do al error de los agentes del
fsco.
FL proposito del Tesorero nc
puede ser Ell de violar la Lev

cion en- terminus que hagan i'm.

de TN sensible error de subal-
ternos modestos que subsanara
que ha debido subsanar q esta

del autor de la circular, .que ha
ctsasado en- Ell publico Ell estupor

HIGH DISTINCTION FOR A LOCAL
BANK.
(From Sundays Daily.)


BY reference 20 the announcement ON
page 3, IL will be noted tnat the Pres.
colt National bank has earned u place
on the "Roll of Honor" Of the national
banks Of the United States. A "roll OF
honor" bank is one possessing surplus
and profits in excess Of its capital, and
II is an honorable distinction Of which
any financial institution in the United
States may be justly proud.
According TO the statement Of 1.-THE
Financier," there are 5000 national
banks in the United States, but only
900 Of them are entitled 10 an enroll.
ment on the Roll Of Honor. Such n
distinction is a guarantee 90 local pat
rons and bank correspondents that tacy
are doing business with n financial in.
stitution Of unquestioncd strength and
stability. People like TO deal with
strong banks.
or the 900 banks on the Roll Of
Honor the Prescott National bank is
ranked as No. 700, the rating being
based on the percentage Of the surplus
and undivided profits to the capital.
For instance, the capital stock Of the
Prescott bank is 100000, while on
January !, 1907, its surplus and undi.
yidcd profits were slOo,99o, thus Civ
ing IL a ranking percentage Of 109.o9
per cent. There are only three banks
Of this class in Arizona, which appear
on the Roll Of Honor. The Consoli.
dated National Of Tucson while appar
emily the best rated, with a percentage
Of 1905, is actually not as strong as
the Prescott bank, for the capital stock
is only $4,000. It's surplus is $5s,o2o,
thus giving il apparently higher per
centage.
Since January !, the business If the
Prescott National bank has grown re-
markably, the result being that its sur
plus and undivided profits amounted "a
H23,277.37 at the close Of business, on
May 20 Were a comparison made now
il is believed that the local bank would
ou,rank the Tucson bank, despite the
latter's mathematical advantage Of a
low capitalization. The Phoenix Ma
tional bank Is the other Arizona bank
On the Roll of Honor.
The principal reason for the high
standing of the Prescott National bank
is that the directors have been en-
trcmely conservative in the matter OF
dividends They adopted the policy OF
declaring moderate dividends in order
70 build mp a large surplus fund ~ 'b'
