WRIGHT SAYS MUST PUNGLE DOUBLE
 ROAD TAX Attorney General Renders Decision at Request
 of Assessor

In the opinion of John B. Wright, territorial attorney general, County As sessor R. F.. Merritt has no option but to collect road tax both inside and out side of this city, regardlesss of whether or not the people of Globe may be forced to pay double tax as the re- suit.
 An opinion of the attorney general was received at the assessor s office yes terday, in response to communication asking for information on the subject. In this opinion Mir. Wright says:
 "Under the old law, the following words were contained in the statute in reference to road tax, viz: That everyone mot residing within the cor porate limits of an incorporated town or city should pay. Under section ,, chapter 63, session laws of 1909, the law reads that every citizen must pay road tax regardless of whether he re- sides within city or town or not. '
 As the result of this opinion, it is probable that those who are preparing to bring an action in the local court to dispense with the necessity of pay ing double taxes for road and street improvements, will direct such a suit against the city rather than the county.
 District Attorney Shute stated yes. terday that territorial law would take precedence over a conflicting city ordi- nance and it is probable that an at tempt will not be made to evade pay ment of county road tax, as provided by the territorial laws, but that an at

CHRISTENSEN MAKES GOOD IN MATCH
 LAST NIGHT
Puts Ed Husson to Mat Four Times in Fast Order
 Cancel Fifth Fall

In every way superior to his oppOn- ent, Al Christensen threw Ed Husson four times in l3 minutes and 3l sec conds at Dreamland last night, winning the match with ease and showing him self to be a wrestler which any mat artist of his weight would have a hard time defeating.
 At no stage of the game did Illus son have a look in. In spite of the fact that the odds were as heavy as to l against him, Christensen dis posed of Husson with apparent ease and at the end of the fourth fall, the latter was so thoroughly convinced of the futiity of his attempts that he gave up the match.
 In the first bout, Christensen threw Husson over his shoulders to the mat and with a simple scissors hold, pinned him to the mat. Husson struggled to overcome the advantage, but was forced to give in. Time, 4.32.
 In the second bout, after 8 short scrimmage, the men went down off the mat They were broken by the referee and in the center of the mat, Christen- sen gave Husson his own hold. With | combination bar half toe lock and neck chancery Christensen threw his op- | ponent within few seconds after hay ing given him his own hold. Time, 205.
 In the third bout, Christensen used | the head scissors lock to advantage, after considerable preliminary skirmish- ing; forcing HussOn to the mat after a l lengthy struggle. Time, 3.O4. | In the final bout, a combination half | scissors head scissors and bar lock was used to throw Husson this bout clearly showing that the local man had no chance with his opponent. Time, 3.5O.
 Husson threw up the sponge after the fourth bout and Christensen was de- clared the winner. Not only was the southern champion too heavy for his | opponent, but he possessed a knowledge of the game which showed him to be decisive winner. He had over forty | five minutes to complete the bout and win, had Husson not given up the .rin- equal contest.
 A good crowd witnessed last night s exhibition and there were not few women in the audience.

SON IF SAM KEE |S IN GLOBE UNDER
 SlOOO BOND
Alien Gives Surety That He Will Leave States When
 Business Is Finished

For the first time in the history of the territory, as far as can be learned, Chinese, who would ordinarily not be allowed within the country, is visit ing Globe under the authority of the government.
 The Chinese is Wong Thung, a son of Sam Kee, the wealthy Chinese mer- chant who died in this city few weeks ago. He is travelling in this country under bond of $l,000, furnished by the First National bank of Fl Paso, as surety that he will immediately leave the country when he has completed his work in the United States, that of talk ing charge of the remains of his father.
 Wong arrived here last night, accom- panied by Charles l.. Rawlins, who ar ranged his bond. He will take charge of the remains of Sam Kee at once and will accompany them to Hong Kong, where they will be inferred with the bones of his forefathers
 The Chinese is expected to leave fer San Francisco early next week. He will make the entire trip to China and probably return to his home. in Mexico after the body is inferred.
 According to the Chinese religion, 1t is considered almost sacrilegiOus to all low the bones of native of that coun- try to rest in foreign soil and in many cases, bodies are exhumed years after burial and shipped back to China. For this reason the remains of sam Kee were not buried here, even though fun eral services were held, but have been held here since the funeral, awaiting the arrival of Wong Thung to accom- pany them to China
