Abstracts of County Assessment Rolls
At the Office of the Territorial
Auditor.

Abstracts of the assessment rolls of
the various counties have been re-
CeiVcd at the office of the territorial
auditor and show a total valuation of
property for purposes Of taxation, of
$50, 1854, 969.71, less exemptions amount
] ing to $7O4, 622.1O. The latter figure is
an increase over the net valuation of
last year of $2,57S. 151.10. 1t is posi-
BILE that corrections in the abstracts
will show a net valuation for this year
of over eighty million dollars. to say
nothing of that raises that may be
made by the territorial board of equali
cation.
The figures from the counties are as
follows: Apache, $1.042, 953.SS; Cochise,
I$19,5SS,S29.37; Coconino, $4,S14,373.S2;
ella, $5,465, 1921; Graham, sS,199, 1873
%; Maricopa, $14,264,755.5S; Mohave,
$1,619,OsS11; Navajo. $1,S44,S72.63;
Pima, $7,230,4 1852; Pinal, $2,479, 415.37;
Santa Cruz, $1,721, SSO.O5; Yavapai,
S1O,244, 9S7S0; Yuma, $2.6S9,072.09.
The abstracts do not show that there
has been an increase of the valuation
of any class of property, on the con-
trary the mining assessments are a
little lower than they were last year on
account of the suspension of work for
time in many of the mines. The in
crease is made up of the rapid but ma
tural growth of wealth.
Maricopa adds nearly million to
the increase of two and half mil
lions There is a decrease of little
more than a million in Cochise county.
Yavapai shows an increase of more
than half million and the increase is
added to by nearly all of the smaller
counties and most of the larger ones.
Though ella and Graham are mining
counties the returns from both of
them are larger than they were last
year.

BEET SUGAR
ENTERPRISE
Future of the Industry Here
Now Assured
The Business In the Hands
of Men With Capital and
Experience.

After several disappointments the
future of the sugar beet industry in
this valley is now assured Mr.. W. j.
Murphy yesterday returned to Phoenix
from an eastern visit in the course of
Which he brought about an agreement
which will result in the reopening of
J the industry here with an assurance
that it will be kept open and will
keep growing bigger. In connection
with the object of his pourney he Wis
tied Colorado, Chicago. and Detroit.
He said yesterday that the Glendale
Sugar company, or more properly the
Arizona Sugar company had succeeded
in completing a contract under which
J. r. MKennie and R p Davie of Col
orado Springs have taken the control
and the management of the company.
These are the same parties with whom
an arrangement of the same effect was
made year ago but owing to the fact
that the reorganization of the COM
pany without foreclosure proceedings
as then planned required the unani-
nous approval of the bond holders, it
could not be carried out. The bond
holders were widely scattered and
many of them were reluctant to enter
into the agreement so that it was i'm
possible to secure the assent of and
foreclosure became necessary. The
bondholders bid in the property and or
ganized a new company and then it
became feasible to consummate sub
stantially the same agreement as that
of last year.
Messrs. M'Kennie and Davie have
been engaged in the sugar business in
Colorado and western Kansas for the
last ten years. They built and operat-
ed for years the sugar factory at Love
land, Col. Then they bought the
wreck of a factory at Grand Junction
and brought it out into a fine paying
property. Three years ago they built
a factory at Garden City, Kans, in the
Arkansas valley and it is now a fine
going property.
They have in their employ as fine
techinal skill as there is i'm the country
and they propose to bring to bring
their best men to Phoenix to complete
and operate the Glendale factory.
Messrs. Davie and MKennie are strong
financially and can furnish what ever
capital may be required for the COM
Both gentlemen were here last year.
They fully investigated the factory and
the situation in this community and
they have the greatest faith in the
ultimate result in this valley. The fact
that these men have taken up this
enterprise is a substantial guaranty of
its success. They are broad gagged
businessmen and will be a decided ac-
QUESTION to the valley. Mr.. Davie as
the active manager of the enterprise
will make the valley his home and Mr.
NJ Kennie later may do so. Mr.. Davie
will arrive here within a week or two
to take up the enterprise in it's various
phases and that time the details of it
may be announced.
The buildings of the Glendale fac
tory were constructed for machinery
with capacity of 1900 tons daily. Not
so much machinery has been installed.

AN ANCIENT MAP
OF "ARRIZ0NIA'
The Western Part of the United States
Looked Different Fifty Years Ago.

Whether or not those who have
been accustomed to call or spell it
-'Arizonan" have been convincer of the
error their ways, the discussion of that
matter which has taken place in the
columns of The Republican has not
been without good result. james c..
Goodwin Of Tempe became so inter
ested in the subject that he resUrrect-
ed an old map which had been in his
possession for Years. He took it to
the capital yesterday and presented it
to Governor Kibbey, who had the fact
of the presentation and the name of
Mr.. Goodwin printed on it. and it will
henceforth adorn the walls of the
executive chamber.
The map was PUBLISHED by Johnson
just fifty years ago, in 1858. 1t is the

The INCORPORATING
BUSI-

NESS.-The fees received at the office
Of the territorial auditor for filing ar
ticles of Incorporation for July were
$2729.20, a falling off in comparison
with the figures of July last year of
$4,000. The receipts were also less
than those Of June of this year by
about $1,000, from which it is conclud-
ed that the Incorporating business OF
the countr-- is on the wane in conse-
quence of the depression from which
the country has suffered.

 View.
MINDS MUST BE TUNED

I read with much interest the news paper account of the dream of the sis ter of a recently murdered girl Many, no doubt. sneered at the narrative and gave little credence to it, while prais- ing the creative imagination of the narrator. But the number of occur rences which have taken place from the most ancient times to the present in this connection give more and more weight to the theory that at times such abnormal incidents do occur. In the Nun Priests Tale of Chaucer an ae- count is given of the revelation of a murder by the spirit of the murdered man, and hence comes the express sion borrowed from our ancient poet Murder will out" Chaucer in this case is quoting from Cicero.
 It will no doubt be remembered that some time ago a murder occurred in Northwest Canada. and the brother of the murdered man was stated to have had dream in which he saw the murder. and travelling over to Canana ltentl1leu the SHSpetlcu iildii as the murderer In fact and fiction ghosts are represented usually as the spirits of those who have died a vio- lent death The exceptions to this statement are so insignificant that they may almost he neglected.

These are expressed in a suited, formal manner before any ordinary conversa ton is taken up. and even then tho .syl- lable shi must be diligently avoided, though 1t becomes necessary to take a very roundabout way to express ones meaning. The language abounds in this particular sound, and without great care fl Is sure to slip out What makes matters worse for the inhabit- ants of Tokio, who are the Cockneys of Japan, they are in the habit of placing tho sibilant "s'' before every word be- ginning with an "h," SO that words which would otherwise he admitted on New-vear's day are inadvertently con- yerted into the tabooed expressions.

gave certain commissions to Bezuel peared.
 Spiritualists will at once say that they show that spirits can and do communicate with their brethren on the earth Those, however, who have not spiritualistic bias explain the matter differently. They picture to themselves the feelings and thoughts of the murdered man during his futile struggles with tho murderer He is alone ard helpless. Pre-emihently among his thoughts surges up an in- tense desire to acquaint the world with the circumstances of the crime Tho idea strikes him of reproducing the scene until it's meaning is understood and the murderer brought to justice. So we get haunted house, and people with strong nerves may nightly witness the reproduction of the tragedy.\
 Can the mind of man create such phantasms? After weighing the evi- dence it seems that we must answer in the affirmative. If each person eN- amines his own experience and the eX- periences of others he will no doubt find plenty of matter with which to work. Take, for example. persons suf- fering from deliriim They sec objects which are unseen by people in normal health Either their minds create these objects. or else these objects really ex- ist If the first alternative is taken, then the latter theory, or, as we may call it the telepathic theory. gains prominence Thus, I1milv Dimmook. strugslirg in the grasp of her murder CT. her mind wildly agitated. projects her phantasm. projects her thoughts through space, seeking a receiver which would he sympathetic The message is not picked up hy other minds-they are not tuned to her.

 The above is very brief exposition of the telepathic view, which may or may not be the correct one.
