Mohave Countys Assessment Roll.

"oHaVe SountyS Assessment Noh.
 Sheriff Walter Brown, who is also the assessor of this county, this week
 turned over to Thomas McNeely, clerk of the board of supervisors, the .origi- nal assessment roll for the year 1909,
 which shows material increase over that of last year. The roll as con- pleted shows 1,627, 459.22S as against ,496, l53$ last year. It is expected that this amount will be increased fully 2O0,O00$ by the board of equal- zation. Last year the board increased the original roll from l,469, 1888 to l,645, ,637 .53$. The railroad assessment was not received by Assessor Brown before completing the roll and the fig ures are based on that of last year, which has been considerably increased this year by the territorial board, which will make considerable differ- ence in the duplicate roll. Next years roll is expected to exceed this years by large amount, new property Of large value coming in too late for listment this year. The county is al- most sure to pass from the fourth into the third class, which will make a ma terial difference in the classification.

Judge Sloan f1onored.

Judge R. E. Sloan, who was dele. gate in the republican national con- vention, returned to Prescott last Tuesday morning and was met at the train by great delegation of Prescott people, irrespective of party, and with brass band, escorted him to his home. This spontaneous act was in recogni- tion of his great service to the terri tory in framing and forcing into the republican platform a plank pledging single statehood for both Arizona and New Mexico, and that speedily.

Grover Cleveland Dead.

Grover Cleveland, the last of the ex. presidents, died suddenly at his home in Princeton, New Jersey, last We'd nesday morning. He had been i'll the past year and while not unexpected, his death came as a surprise to friends and relatives. While numbered among the great men of the United States by the tinanciers of the east, he lived and died with few if any friends among the people of the great west and south west. He was essentially an eastern man in all his views, there not being one spark of sentiment in his make up for the great western country that will some day represent the wealth, intelligence, population and progress of the United States. But he was the president of the people and all will bow their knee in humble reverence for the man who held the highest of flee in the gift of a great nation.

THOUGHT TRANSPARENCY
is AN ESTABLISHED FACT
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

There may be tremendous obstacles
in the path, but thought is tremend-
Gus also, and capable of wonderful
achievements.
Thoughts of hate, vengeance and re-
taliation poison the atmosphere and
produce numerous disasters.
During a recent great national trag-
edy I heard excellent Christian people
expressing much regret that the as
sassin had not been turned over to
the populace to receive lynch law.
"In such case it is the only thing
To do" was frequently remarked In
my hearing.
No one seemed to consider the effect
upon the populace. Law abiding citi-
gems, who believed theoretically In
Christ's law OF love, turned temporar-
lily iato bloodthirsty wolves and advo-
Gated practically the methods Of the
dark ages--that is what lynch JUS
tice'' means.
No matter what severe punishment
one man may deserve, It only paves
the mental track for otier crimes
when the worst passions Of the masses
are aroused In a mistaken idea that
they are instruments OF God dealing
swift vengeance.
Violent feelings and murderous de-
sires produce mental waves which
submerge weak and unbalanced minds
even at a distance.
Public executions almost invariably
are followed by deeds OF atrocious
crime.
Thought OF all kind Is a dynamite OF
more or less power and Is continually
blasting its way through space
It depends upon It's nature whether
1t clears the way for better or worse
conditions.
