 The name of the organization is the Gochise County Taxpayers as sociation. It's headquarters shall be at Douglas. The officers of the body are a president, a secretary, a treasurer and six vice presidents.

 The officers elected yesterday will serve until the second Monday in February, 1912, at which time the officers shah be elected by the board of trustes, which shall be elected by the association.
 The dues of a member shall be 9 sum equivalent to one per cent of his city, county and territorial taxes.
 Col. J. F. Crowley, of Wilcox. made the point, giving his views at length, that no one who was not a tax payer of the county should become a member of the association or hold office in the association. He made the assertion several times during the meeting and was finally challenged to name a member or officer present who was not a tax payer, and he asserted that J. N. Gaines, secretaly of the body. was not tax payer.
 NIT. Gaines asserted that he was a tax payer and that he owned prop erty in the county and the matter dropped.
 The membership committee report ed that it had secured a number of members and was actively working for others, and merely reported pro gress." On motion the membership committee, which was named at the organization of the teIpporary meet ing at Douglas, ~as continued in existence and increased in number to fifteen. All officers and members of the board of trustees will be notified by letter Of their election and all will be mailed = printed copy of the bylaws of the asso citation.
