tastes. H. B. Spencer, who by the
way could pass for twin brother OF

But we want you to carry along with

ASSESSMENT FOR
THE YEAR 1908
1t Will Be 100000 Less
This Year In CoChise-Per-
SonaI Property Question.

County Assessor Charles r. Howe
and his deputies are busily at work
completing the assessment for the
year 1908. The majority of the as
sessment have been turned in and
the work of placing them in the rolls
will be started within tie next few
days. The assessor has about thirty
days more in which to complete the
work and the books will then be turn
ed over to the board of supervisors.
The assessment Of Cochise county
will this year show a falling off of
what it was last year of about $1,000
600 according TO the estimate Of the
county assessor. The mine produc-
ton fell off considerable and Lne
value placed On property in Bisbee
and Douglas as well as a number of
places was reduced this year by the
assessor on account Of the prevailing
condition of the country. The rolls
last year footed up to a little over
s20,0G0,000 while this year 1t is not
expected that they will go much over
$4,000, 900.
There are a number Of large ds-
sessments that will be added this
year that were not ON the rolls last
year: The Gadsden Hotel in Doug
las; the Warren railroad; Walter
Douglas residence in Warren as
well as a number of others there.
The question of what is considered
personal property is causing the as
SCISSOR considerable trouble at the
present time in view of the fact thai
Judge Nave in his decision on one of
the demurrers to the complaint in
the Copper Queen back tax cas- held
that the lien did not go to personal
property, only real estate, and in or
der to protect the county the assessor
is drawing the line as close IS pos
sible. At the present time the CUES
ton as to whether or not a tele-
graph line is personal property is
giving the assessor considerable
trouble besides a number of others
that have arisen since Judge Nave
announced his decision so that a num-
Der OF tax payers are liable to be con-
PEELED to pay on personal property
which heretofore they have been pay
ing on as real estate, or else put up
bond for. its payment until the taxes
become due in December

COUNTRY CLUB
Branch of Street Car Line Is
CompIeted-Temporay
Schedule in Use,

On Sunday the Warren-Bisbee
street railway company began the
operation OF cars on the country club
extension. Although the work is not

seeking recreation.
At the present time cars leave for
the club grounds from Bisbee on the
odd hours, beginning at Z O'Clock in
the morning and continuing through
out the day until nightfal. On Sun
days cars will leave here on the hour

porary. and if the management be
lieves that a closer schedule be in
accordance with the travel on this
branch of their system, it Is probable
that they will supply the wants OF
the patrons.
