Arizona Tax Rates.

Seven counties in Arizona have a
lower tax rate for 1907 than in 1906,
four have a greater rate and two
haye the same. This is shown in a
table prepared by Public Examiner
Foster, who has received returns
from all the counties.
Most of the counties in which the
tax rate is the same or greater than
in 1906 attributed this to the building
of court houses and similar purposes,
which have caused unusual heavy ex-
penditures.

And started out to roam
Till they found trading place
Where people trade at home.
Mr.. Brown of Shopless Town.
When shops were plenty there.
Used to mail his cash afar
For trifles light as air;
For substantial things as we'll.
To those mail order trusts
TITS no wonder that at homo

THE ALLUREMENT,

In the spring the city Teller,
Not intending any harm.
Thinks to add unto his fortune
He will get chicken farm.
Where the chickens. bless their hearts
Will come practicing their arts.
With one rooster and q dozen
Hens whose pleasure Is to lay
He can gather in basket
Full of eggs. he thinks each day.
Some he'll sell for prices high.
And the rest Of them he'll fry.
Visions Of some dainty puliets
Stepping round at his command
And in winter and in summer
Laying eggs to beat the band
And unto his Joy and pride
Matching brOilers on the side.
He can see the profits rolling
To him all along the line;
He can see his neighbors jealous.
And the game looks pretty fine.
He'll know better by and by,
When he's given the thing q try.

Home Trade Hints.


The home trader Is the home builder
The man who trades ut home knows
q good trade when he sees 1t.
When you trade ut home instead of
by mail order you save both postage
and prestige.
Lots Of women refuse to take mail
orders. but they are SO fond Of sending
mail orders that they risk their cash
that way.
Some women sweep disdainfully by
bargains in the home stores ana send
to the big city just because they like to
get mail.
In my opinion the man or woman
who trots around to the postoffice to
mail money to the big city mail order
houses and then trOts around to q
neighbours and complains that this
town Is no good is neither a philoso
pher nor a patriot

SHIPMENTS
ARE STOPPED
From CoIdfield Until
Samplers Will Pay
Cash for Them

A large force of men was laid off
on the Mohawk yesterday, owing to
the dilatory tactics of the smelters
Only men employed on development
work We're retained. The explanation
given by Mr.. Wingneld himself, fol
lows:
We have 139 cars OF ore between
here and Millers stations. This stuff
is worth $4,000. The smelter peo-
pie at first said they could not ten
when payment would be made, but
finally agreed to settle for the cars
in transit. Under the present order
OF things We will ship no more ore
We will oppose any talk on the part
OF the smelters that they will settle
at their convenience. We want
money for our ore and If we can t
get it, we won't ship the ore. That
is all there is TO it.
Both the Nevada-Goldheld Reduc:
ton company and the Western Ore
Purchasing company have ceased to
receive ore until the financial situa-
ton clears sufficiently to allow them
to make cash payments.
Attachment suits We're filed yester
day against the NeyadaGoldfield Re
auction by the Mohawk Combination
Leasing company for s14,3 for ore
delivered since September i, ana by
the Mohawk Combination Leasing
company also filed ano,h her suit stat
ing that So 800 worth OF their ore
is detained by the defendant, and
asking that it be delivered to them OF
payment made. This is no refect,In
upon the defendant but is merely a
legal measure OF the plaintiffs to pro
tect themselves while the ore is IL

the smelter deferred payment system
