PHOENlX, Ariz., Feb. lJ.-Thc 3- cent fare bill passed the House this afternoon. From n probable victory for the railroad lobby it was turnS1 into an utter routing of these forces.
 At the morning session the speaker took the floor and asked that the House postpone action on the bin for one day, in order 10 allow time to hear further statements from the railroad lobby bearing on the measure.
 His motion prevailed, and at the noon adjournment the friends of the bill were feeling rather blue. They felt that they had received great setback. The railroad interests were feeling eorrespoudingly happy.

One of the most iniauitous hills ina, mas thus far been introduced in the Legislature is Council Lill No. i5. In. uor the flimsy guisc of not placing a tax on producing mines, it's real purpose is to permit the big producers to escape their just proportion of taxes. Another vicious feature of ,ho olil IS that il rcpcals the Andrews act which provides that any taxpayer hay ing a grievance against bis assessment. must first pay his taxes to the county. before he can bring suit.
 The provisions of this bill were dis. cussed at the last meeting of the board. the assessor and the district attorney being called into consultation, and it was the conclusion of the board that tho enactment of the proposed law would result in an immense loss to this county and force the board Co raise the tax rate.
 Accordingly, the following rcsolu. ton was unanimously adopted and or. dcrcd transmitted Co both Houses of the Legislatures:
 Whereas, There has been introduced in the Council of the Legislature of this Territory. now in session in Phoe. nix. bill known as C. B. No. 45, pro viding for the taxing of the mines of this Territory, and

 Whereas, An examination of the bill and a familiarity with the conditions leads the members of this board to ,bc firm belief that this plan for taxing mines will not result in benefit to inc people of lavapai county or of the Territory at large, but that on the contrary, SO far as Yavapai county is concerned it will he detrimcnt. and will result in n loss in the assessed value of mining property in this coun. ty of over One Million (si ,0O0 OOO) Dollars for the year 1907, this state. ment being made upon the calculations of our county assessor;
 Now Therefore, Be It Resolved. That this board of supervisors hereby protests against the passage of said bill; and
 Be It Further Resolved, That copies of this resolution be presented to the Council and House of Representatives of said Legislature.
