The assessed valuation of pro- perty in Imperial county this year will be more than S9,- 100000 and probably very close to $10,000,000. A two per cent tax rate would yield between $18O,OOO and S2OO,OO0, of which the State takes about $45, 1000, leaving something between S135,OOO and $155,000 for coun- ty expenses. The county prob ably could get along very com fortably with $135, ,000, and it is the business of the supervisors to see that no unnecessary eX- pense is incurred. The tax ques- tion will be worked out satisfac- torily to the people, and all the bowling that was set up a few weeks ago will prove to have been nothing but one of those unnecessary noises which civic societies endeavor to suppress for the public good.

According to the San Diego Union the c. D. Go. intends to appeal from Judge Wellborn's decisions, and if defeated in the United States Supreme Court may shut down it's works and ruin the valley in revenge for loss of it's suits. It is incredible that the Southern Pacific, which controls the c. D. Co.,, has made any such threat. By action of that sort the c. D. Co. would forfeit it's franchises, it's con- sessions, it's appropriation of water and it's right to be re- garded as anything but a public enemy and an outlaw. Manager Cory does not talk that way; he accepts the situation in a reasonable spirit and urges friendly adjustment of all ques- tions at issue,

Uncle Sam is doing his best to save the forests of the country. He creates reserves, employs rangers to guard them, makes fire-breaks and plants more trees, and along comes a locomo- tive, coughing out sparks, and undoes his work in a moment. There is no excuse for the in cendiary locomotive in these days, and if the railroads were forced to pay for the damage it does, that antiquated ma chine would disappear suddenly.
Imperial Valley press., 1908-07-18

Complaints made to the city trustees indicate that some citi- zens do not understand clearly the nature and purpose of the occupation license tax. A tax of that character cannot be ad- justed to the volume of business done by each individual. 1t is not an income tax. It is only an expedient to distribute as equit- ably as possible the cost of minor public services which were paid for by the voluntary contributors of a few persons before the city was incorpOr- ated. The older residents went down into their pockets to pay for making the town habitable and attractive, and it is only fair that later-comers should help bear the present burden. When the city derives an ade- quate income from a property tax, the license schedule can be revised to bear mainly upon those who do not pay in other ways for the benefits they en- iOY.

BY Associated Press
CHICAGO, June 22.-The hottest day
| of the year, with the mercury standing
at "a degrees, brought death and suf-
fering to Chicago today. Eight deaths
were reported to the coroner's office,
and heat prostrations were numerous.
In addition, a mad dog scare spread
through the city and the chief of police
ordered his men to shoot all unmuzzled
dogs. A similar order issued in Morton
Park, a suburb, resulted in the killing
of forty dogs in a few hours.
The death list follows:
FRANK CASS, 35; overcome while
working in his garden at La Grange,
a suburb.
SAMUEL DOUGLASS, rs, negro;
made dizzy by heat and fell off yacht
into Jackson Park lagoon, drowning.
JOHN GOLDEN, drowned in Des-
PLANES river while seeking relief from
the heat.
WILLIAM DETTLING. SIS, negro;
crazed by heat and committed suicide
by drinking paris green.
WILLIAM HOBSON, IS; dropped
dead of heart disease, superinduced by
heat.
BABY GUNTHER, 2 weeks old; died
at county hospital of heat prostration.
SARAH OSKMOS, 9, died at Presby-
terrain hospital after heat prostration.
ESIELIE ELI, 10 udyS Olu, uieu dt
county hospital of heat prostration.l
The number of prostrations reported
to the police totaled several score. The
most serious of these included the
the cases of James Burton of 344 One
Hundred and Fourth street, New York,
who came here to attend the Republic
can national convention, and of Mrs.
Mary Brown of Bishop street, Chicago,
who was overcome while sitting at a
second story window and fell fifty feet
to a pavement, suffering internal in
juries which may prove fatal.
The mad dog scare was due to the
unusual number of attacks made by
vicious CANNES within the last few
days. Chief of Police Shippy said to-
day that ten cases had come to his no.
tice since Friday, and he sent out a
general order that all unmuzzled dogs
should be killed. Thus far none of the
persons bitten have developed symp-
| toms of rabies. but all are being
watched by health officers.
| The thermometer reached "a at
o'clock this afternoon. According to the
| local weather bureau only one other
| city, Ell Paso, Texas, showed q higher
! temperature during the day, Sc degrees
being reported from there.
A continuance of the hot wave is ex-
pected tomorrow, hut by Wednesday
showers and a shift of the wind from
| the southwest to the northwest are ex-
pected to bring relief to this section of
| the country.
