VALLEY BANK WINS
IN ITS TAX SUIT
2AsslE
Cannot Both be Assessed.

In the case of the territory against
the Valley Bank, a tax suit, Judge
Kent yesterday rendered judgment for
the defendant, dismissing the com
plant This was a test suit to settle
the manner of making assessments of
banks. The bank had been assessed
for the full amount of the stock and
then its property consisting of the
buildings on the east side of Center
street between Monroe street and the
alley on the south was assessed.
Objection was raised by the bank
which claimed that this property had
already been assessed in the stock
which was based in part on this prop
erty. This view of the case was held
by the court holding that if the as
sessment on the buildings were to
stand the bank would be doubly taxed
as to them.

NORTHERN LIGHTS.

For the past three or four nights
there has appeared a bright light on
the mountains to the north of Mesa
and to the west of the Mcdowell Butte
or the red mountain at the Granite
Reef dam. For some time the residents
living to the south and east of Mesa
were of the opinion that it was the
transmission line on fire, but the con-
tinual burning from night to night soon
convinced them that this was an i'm
possibility. 1t is the opinion of the
old timers that it is a prOspectOr's
campfire, but if such is the case it is
hard working prospector who must
spend the entire day carrying brush
enough to burn well into the night

and which is already attracting con-
siderable attention. Every member of
the council with the possible exception
of Fred Bracket comes in for severe
criticism for happening to have AN
upturned nose or a dropping mouth or
a receeding chin or other little facial
expression which might in any posi-
BILE manner be magnified. Councilmen
Stanley and Cerney got off lightly
from the fact that in order to place
the men around the table two of them

There was full attendance at the

The next step to be taken will be for
the-merchants to make a list of all
bad accounts, which will be turned
into the association and from these a
black list or an undesirable list will
be made. Practically every merchant
in town has taken stock in the asso-
citation, which insures the success of
the organization provided the bylaws

Mesa and a little to the north of the
Roosevelt road, for the treatment or
tubercular affections or any other all
ment which will yield to the curative
properties of the desert air and Ari-
IONA sunshine.

As has been mentioned above the To-
cation selected for the sanitarium is
north of Desert Wells the first station
out on the Mesa Roosevelt road. A
tract of fifteen acres between the sta
ton and the transmission line has been
StCuItu anu Oll WHICH, NtilN iiVh'N'
will be located. The purpose is TO use
the water from the Desert Wells sta
ton, which is probably the primary OBJ
ject in locating the institution at this
place. The Desert Wells station was
built four or five years ago for the
accommodation of the stage horses and
freight teams A well was dug TO a
depth of $50 feet and numerous sheds
and cOrrals were constructed. 1t has
been estimated that no less than $4,000
was spent on the location before the
place could be utilized as intended.
With the completion of the oil hauling
contract and the changes made in the
stage line stations, the place has al
most lost its usefulness. The we'll can
not be moved and even the sheds and
buildings are not of much service else
where 1t was with this in mind that
the idea was conceived to locate the
sanitarium at this place. 1t is further
planned in the event that the PROPOSE
ton succeeds as the incorpOrators
have every reason to believe it will,
that an automobile line will be estab-
lished, at any rate as far as Desert
Wells The tent houses will be built
to conform to streets and alleys which
will be laid out, and a general system
will prevail.
The company will be incorporated
for $4,000 and the shares will be dis
posed of at so each. 1t is not known
at this time whether the stock will be
for sale or not, as that is matter
that will be taken up at the next meet
ing Of the organization.
