The management states that the mon ey was so readily procured in advance on account of the remarkable show ing made in the work which has been done by the Development company, and that they estimate that at least 15,000,000 tons of ore will be shown up on the claims.
 The transfer of the title of the property to the Live Oak Development company is of much significance and value to the stockholders, many of whom live in Globe, for two reasons:
 First. Every stoekholder now has an equity in the ground, whereas be- fore only stock in the development company was owned.
 Second. The stock will in all prob ability be listed on the Boston Stock Exchange, giving it more latitude and resilieney.
 The many friends of the Kalden- bergs will congratulate them upon the final eonsummatiOn of this important deal which means so much, not only to them, but to the Globe district as well in that it shows the confidence which men with money have in the copper deposits of which Gila county is so proud

BIG CASH PAYMENT
 MADE FOR LIVE OAK
Reputed to be Largest Amount Ever Paid in Single Lump for Mining
 Property in Arizona

GLOBE, Ariz., Aug. 1s-A payment which is undoubtedly the largest cash payment ever made in a single lump for mining property in this district, was made in New York today, when the Live Oak Development company paid over nearly s40O,OOO to the Live Oak Mining company for its property near Miami.
 The property consists of eleven mining claims and has been under de- velopment work for over two years by the purchasing company. This final settlement makes total of about $5OO,OOO which has been paid for the claims.
 Fred J. Kaldenberg and his son Forest J. Kaldenberg, the former owners of the property, are well known in Globe, the father having lived here for about three years and the son for nearly fifteen years, dur ing which time the Live Oak prop erty has been worked and developed.
 Most remarkable is the fact that the final payment was made eighteen months in advance of the time it was due, the option calling for the final settlement December 3. 1912.

ton has not vet completed any Of the property schedules, but yesterday 1t computed and fixed the levy for terri torial purposes for 1911, at 65 cents, which is five cents lower than last year, which in turn was lower than any preceding year. Also the board fixed the levies for counties and cities that are indebted to the territory for funded bonds.
 To determine the total rate for any section of the territory, the reader should take the levy of 65 cents for territorial purposes, add to it the levy Tor the county. if there be one in the appended list, add to that the levy for the city if it be in either Pres cott, Tombstone or Tucson, and to that total add 9 cents for the terri torial road fund, in the case of all counties except Apache where the levy Is but cents.
 By this process the levy in Mari cOpa county totals 97 cents made up as follows: Tax for territorial pur poses. 65 cents. levy for funded debt . cents. for territorial road fund 9 cents. The city of Phoenix has no bonds funded by the territory so the entire county is on the same basis.
 To further illustrate, in Yavapai county at large the levy is @ cents for territorial purposes, I5 cents for county funded debt and 9 cents for the road fund. total of $l.O5. But within the city of Prescott there should be added % cents more for the city's funded debt, making total of S1.25-
 The board also fixed the rate yes terday on patented non-producing mines, which will be further referred To later on in this article The levy for territorial purposes for the year 1911. on each $lOO valuation of prop erty, is made up as follows:
