FOR ARIZONA
ARE NOW FIXED

ton Makes Uniform Value

ing Mines in Territory,

PHOENIX, Aug. 12:-The territor-
ial board of equalization has fixed the
valuation per acre for non-producing
oatented mines in all counties AT
$3A40 per acre. This resulted in in
creases in some counties, from So
in Cochise. for instance and reduc-
ton in others. as from 5000 per
acre in ella. This figure OF S354O
does not decrease aggregate valuation
which amounts 20 S2.556 2S7.33.
The acreage Of nOn-producing pat
ented mines in the territory is 72.2ll,
SOP The total value returned was
s2.34S.097.3S. The greatest acreage
is in Yavapai with 27,S91 $40. In Co
chise there are 16,O1S.215 acres.
The valuation of fourteen miles OF
railroad beginning TO the ella Valley.
Globe and Northern. including the line
TO Miami. and TO Amster was reduced
and pro-rated on the whole division at
1886 per mile. The valuation of the
NJ. & p. tracks from Mesa to Tempe.
a distance of sevel miles. was reduced
from s7.s7S29 to approximately 81 600
per mile.
The Arizona and Eastern, represent
ed by Gibson Taylor. is not satisfied
with the boards valuation of the
property of the road as compared with
the valuation of the lines of the ella
Valley. Globe and Northern. Taylor
appeared before the board again to-
day. He claims that the valuation OF
the road should be based with regard
to its earnings and not as to the phys
ical Investment.

Dr. Vega Reports that There
Is no Longer Any Serious
Danger from Cattle Cross

The Texas fever tick situation in
Sonora is rapidly improving and the
danger of a general infection of the
greater part of the ranges of the
state is past, due to the prompt act
ion taken by DR.. Vega. the Mexican
federal veterinary and the state OIL

DR.. Vega was in Bisbee last evening
and stated that there is very little

only places where there is any In.

the range. The Cachuta people have
dippd the greater part Of their stock
and have about extermlnated the
ticks
The ticks have disappeared from the
other parts Of the state and the cross
country guarantees have been re
moved except on the ranches named
above. While in the past ticks were
found on cattle in many parts Of the
state none OF the stock had the Texas
fever said to be caused by these ticks.
A little more than a year ago the
situation was thought to be serious

inspected the cattle. After his trip
he reported to the governor and quar-

methods the ticks were exterminated

as final, and the politicians looked
hopefully forward to an opening of
campaign barrels such as had not
been seen here since the memorable
campaign Of 1892, when democrats
and ''mugwumps" made a most de-
termined effort to displace Senator
Aldrich and had the active co-opera-
ton Of the so-called muck rakers
yellow journals and magazines. Bu.
MIR. Aldrich was reelected by an
overwhelming plurality. and since
that time has gone on succeeding
himself with no appreciate difficulty.
Public opinion in the last two
months seemed to have crystallized
rapidly IN favor OF the election OF
/ Colonel Colt, who was the majority
candidate Of his party to succeed
Senator George Peabody Wetmore,
but was defeated by a coalition of
| democrats and republicans who re-
fused to go into caucus, and frittered
away the January session OF the 1907
/ general assembly with fruitless bal
loting. Colonel Colt. whose loyal fol-
/ lowers had remained steadfast
throughout the session, announced
his withdrawal from the senatorial
race. and the next year Senator Wet
more was reelected, with but little
opposition. even from the democrats
and their Lincoln party associates.
HaviLs gracefully stepped out of the
way two years ago. and practically
given up politics. though always a
most generous contributor. Colonel
Colts attitude toward the Aldrich
suceessorship cannot be told with any
degree OF certainty. Those who
know him best profess to be sorely
concerned lest he refuse the honor,
even should il come to him from an al
most unanimous general assembly.
It is certain that Colonel Colt is
stronger with the people than he was
three years ago.

ESTIMATE FOR STAMPS.
Over 3,OOO,OOO,OO0 Needed in To
bacco Business This Year.

Over 3OOO.OoO.Oo0 internal revenue
stamps will be required for the cigars,
cigarettes, strip tobacco and snuff during
the current fiscal year. according to a de-
ficiency estimate sent to the House today
by the Treasury Department.
This is an increase of 32O6O0.OOO to 4O0,-
OOO, 900 over the number deemed neces-
sary by the internal revenue officials last
August. 1t is attributed to the unforeseen
increase In the demand for the stamps
