Arizona Equalization Board Adds Six
 Millions to Railway Valuations.

Millions to Railway Valuations.
 Last Saturday the territorial board of equalization comp mpleted it's annual session in which it fixed the total value of all railroad prop erty in Arizona for taxation pur poses at $l6 633,68l.l5. This is an increase of $5, ,834, ,033 over 1910, or of considerably more than fifty per cent in one year.
 Another closely related item is the valuation placed upon Pullman property, which is $100,333.45. railroad property exempt from tax. ation is $8,389, ,925. The total value of all railroad and Pullman prop. erty in the territory is $25, 5,l23,- 93y.50.
 The work of the board during the week had the result of adding largely to the amount of taxable property. If the plans of the assessors be realized for a more equitable assessment of property through all the counties of the ter. rltory, it Is possible there may be material reduction in the tax rate.
 By far the heaviest taxpayer Is the Southern Pacific, with 3924 miles assessed at l7,500 a mile. The total assessed valuation of the s, P. for 1911, therefore, is in ex- cess of $6,800,000. The Santa Fe, Prescott < Phoenix is assessed at Sl0000 a mile. Its value is slight ly below $2,000,000.
 The shortest railroad in Arizona is the line of the Arizona Commer- ciaI Copper Company, which is 3,03 miles in length. It is assessed al S2825 a mile.
 The Congress railroad, operated by the Congress mines, is 8 so miles in length and is rated at 5000 a mile. The Johnson, Ora. goou < Northern, in the estimation of the board Is worth $500 mile. But it is 8.2 miles in length and is sizable railroad compared with some of them.
 The following tables will show at glance the valuation placed upon the various roads throughout the territory:

OUR SCHOOLS ARE ADVANCING.
Three More Oconee Districts Join in
the Forward Movement.

Petitions have been filed In the
office Of the County Superintendent
or Education from Coneross District
No. 81, Brewer District No. "a and
Bear Swamp District No. 72, asking
that the three districts be .consoli-
dated and good graded school built
In the consolidated territory. The
number Of names signed to the petit
tions shows the unanimity, of the
people concerned. That they mean
business is indicated by the fact that
the committee which presented the
matter to the county board urged
immediate consideration so that they
might begin to get the benefit this
coming session.
The little mountain districts Of
Village Creek and Bethlehem led the
way, but 1T Is gratifying to note that
the movement has also taken root in
such fertile soil as that around Cone
ross, Bear Swamp ana Poplar Springs
communities. May it continue to
grow.

Special: This section Is being
scourged with what Is thought to be
tick fever j. w. Jameson has lost
three milch COWS and a yoke Of steers
are now sick with it. Joe Hutchins,
a tenant Of Mr.. Jamesons place, lost
his only milch COW, w. M. Moody has
lost two and M. G. Holland one. The
disease has been pronounced distem-
per by some, but a veterinarian from
Clemson College pronounced it tick
fever.
We also have some disease among
the chickens. Some call 1t timber
neck, but 1t is what Is known as roup.
1t is very destructive.
The little nine-year-old son Of Mrs.
Kate Lee, who was kicked by mule
on the third Sunday in August Is
getting along nicely. He was able
to come to church last Sunday. No
one knows how near death one can
be and then get we'll. Very little
hope was entertained for Franks re-
covery, yet he is doing SO well now
that 1t seems almost a miracle.

REVENUE oFFICERs ARE ACTIVE
Captured and Destroyed Several
Stills and Made Two Arrests.

Last Thursday Revenue Officers r..
q. Merrick, w. T.. Orr, A. II. Reid
and H. G. LangstOn started out for
a trip into the mountains OF Oconee,
but before they finished their work
found themselves working over on
the Georgia side. -
Leaving Walhalla Thursday morn
ing the officers headed for Brasstown
creek, where they captured distill-
ing outfit and apparatus, including a
40-gallOn copper still, cap and con-
denser, 16 fermenters and destroyed
about 1000 gallons of beer. This
plant was located on the bank of
Thos. j. Patterns mill pond, about 20
feet from the bank Of the pond, and
1t Is said that evidence showed that
meal was transferred from the mill
to the still by boat, there being alb
solutely no trail from any point to
the still. A keg OF corn whiskey was
found about 400 yards from the dis
tillery and about rs yeards from
Mr.. Patterns home. The plant was
cold when the officers reached it.
On Friday the officers struck out
toward Madison, rounding up at the
nome OF Mrs. Emaline Lyles, in the
ce,lar or whose house was found a
40-gallon still, cap and worm, 10
and six bushels of meal, besides a
lot of malt and Is gallons Of corn
whiskey. This plant had been re-
Gently in operation, but was cold
when the officers paid their respects.
Samuel Smith was arrested, rs was
also Mrs. Lyles, and both were bound
over for appearance before Commits
ss!oner Shelor for preliminary hear
ing next Saturday. Although the
distilling plant was but recently op-
Grated, and was located In the cellar
of her dwelling, Mrs. Lyles affirms
that she knew nothing Of the exist
ence OF the plant, and appeared to
be greatly surprised that such a
thing could have been possible.
Sunday the officers visited the
Sandy Ford section Of Oconee, on
Chattooga river, where they crossed
to the Georgia side. Going up War
woman Creek about three miles they
ran into good sized plant which
had been in operation recently. The
outfit, consisting Of still. 10 ferment-
ers and 600 gallons of beer, was de-
StrOyed
