Tie Law Must Be Changed

Whatever may be the outcome of the litigation precipitated by the Yava- pal county board of supervisors in lowering the basis of taxation of the mines of that county, one thing is all ready certain and that is that our laws regarding the taxation of mines will have to be changed.
 The state will probably win in the present case, the authorities seeming to hold that the Yavapai board can not review it's own action and having once made return to the state board of equalization it canpOt change those returns. Those returns constituted a part of the total upon which the state board estimated the tax rate. Any subsequent reduction of the valuations would reduce the tax to be raised be- low the amount expected and needed. The matter is said to be covered by a New York case.
 But it is practically admitted that the county board could have disre- garded the orders Cf the commission relative to the mine taxing basis though in the beginning it was as stunned that the power of the com mission was supreme. So, if the Yavapai board had done before it made it's returns what it did after ward the state would have been help less
 Therefore, as matters now stand the business of taxing mines is en- tirely in the hands of the county boards no two of which may entertain the same views. One corporation may be taxed on 100 per cent of it's gross output and another in another county may be taxed upon 25 per cent or any other per cent which happens to strike the fancy of the local board.
 This situation is unlike anything anywhere else in the country and perhaps unlike any other that has ever existed since civilized men un- dertook to distribute the burden of taxation

FACE TO FACE WITH TWO LIONS
 AT THIRTY YARDS

Stewart Edward White, writing on lion hunting in the September Amerl- can Magazine, relates personal eX- perience he had with two lions that came onto him unexpectedly during a recent years hunt in Africa. He goes on to say:
 They were about thirty yards away; and sat there on their launches, side by side, staring at me with expressiOnless yellow eyes. stared back. The Springfield Is a good little gun, and three times be- fore I had been forced to shoot lions with it, but my real lion gun with which I had done best work was the 4O5 Winchester The Springfield IS too light for such game. Also there were two lions, very close Also was quite alone.

Who, When and How?

A MT. Schermerhorn of Detroit the other day at a Michigan farmers pie nic declared that the real victim of the Chicago robbery was Senator La Toilette. He neglected to disclose the identity of the robber. MT. Roosevelt has been much more specific.
 MT LaFouette went into the con- vention with, as We remember, forty four votes As things turned out that number would not have saved MT. Roosevelt and MT. Taft did not need them.
 Beside, they were with MT. LaFol- lette to the last. Hence MT. Scher- merhorn has not accurately described the location of the crime. that is as the lawyers say, he has not laid the venue properly. Neither has the time been rightly described. The indict- ment should have contained the words lon or before" the Chicago conven- tion, in order to cover the indefinite period within which the robebry com plained of was committed.
 Assuming though, that Mir. Scher- merhorn means to charge both MT Roosevelt and MT Taft with partici- patton in the crime, the regular re- publicans may offer the old Persian or Arabian defense that it is not q violation of a moral law to steal from a thief

OSBORN

OSBORN DISTRICT, Sept. 2.- George B. Sexton, a recent arrival in the valley has purchased the r. C.
 Everett ranch of twenty acres and has moved his household goods out
 from Phoenix. The price paid for the
 twenty acres was S6500 cash. This
 price was very good considering the cash price. MT. Sexton has been in many parts of the world and has
 seen many irrigation systems but af-
 ter all he thinks this the best place
 on earth to live. He says the eli
 mate is the best year round climate
 in the United States, while the water
 system is the best and cheapest and
 most reliable he has ever heard of
 MT Sexton will begin to make inn
 provements on his newly purchased
 ranch as soon as possible. The fields
 which are now in a somewhat run
 down shape will be plowed, harrow
 ed and ub-soiled till November when he will plant the entire place to al- falfa. The lawns and barns will also be changed to make this one of the most attractive places in the valley. Trees of every kind will be planted in spring
 MISS NdIltidllld " dIu uellSnlIuIlS entertained a party of young people at her country home on the Indian school road on the evening of Aug 23. The yard and house were beau l tifully decorated with ferns, palms and Japanese lanterns. Those who | enjoyed the event were Misses Nancy Lee Heard, Irene Biehn, Lorel Miller, Beatrice Miller, Eugenia Glasscock, and Messrs. David Creighton, Keith Evans, Callie Moore, Marion Winker, ] George Sole, Maurice Lynn and Wes | ley Speakman. After games and mu sic dainty refreshments of cake and l ice cream were served.
 Clarence Beard formerly employed on the Weber ranch, has left for Winkelman where he has secured a good position. MT. Beard has been here but a short time and his friends
 are numbered by his acquaintances
 He likes this valley and says he will
 return often.
 l MT and Mrs. Jesse Hedgepeth and l son have returned after a short visit with friends at Liberty. MT. Hedge beth says the crops are in fine condi- tion, especially the alfalfa seed of which much is being grown. Judge J. c. Phillips and son, Ralph are expected home from Prescott after an extended stay in the mile high city.
 Horace Ferry, who has been spend 1 ing a few months at the home of Rev | J. Coy Williams returneS to Texas much pleased with the valley in gen
 eral. He says he hopes that this will
 not be his last visit to this valley.
 Mr Terry is a brother of Mrs. Will Hams.
 J. T. Perry has just finished blow | ing and cultivating his ranch by which he expects to eradicate the Bermuda grass which has killed out
 the alfalfa that he had planted. He
 plowed this piece when it was dry and narrowed it many times, thus
 exposing the roots to the sun which killed it.

ing by the crowds which met MT. Bryan his election seemed probable. No other man since Blaine had so enthused the multitude. Yet, he was defeated
 In successive campaigns, though growing in eloquence and fame, cap able of firing his still larger audiences to hotter enthusiasm, he has steadily been defeated by increasing majOrities.
 There is some reason for all this. We believe it to be that q majority of the voters are of the opinion that the oratorical candidate is displaying an eagerness for office that is not compatible with the dignity of the office.

 BIRTHDAY

It is a favorable day and general good fortune will follow you through the year. A letter will cause you some annoyance and you should take especial care of your wealth.
 Those born today will be generous and good hearted and will have the brilliant qualities which make for success. Their drawback will be a lack of the plodding earnestness necessary to bring out their best pos abilities.

looked at each other, turned quite leisurely, and began to move away at a walk.
 This was a different matter. If I had fired while the two were fac ing me. I should probably have had them both to deal with. But now that their tails were turned toward me, I should very likely have to do with only the one; at the crack of the rifle the other would run the way he was headed. So I took a careful bead at the lioness and let drive.
 My aim was to cripple the pelvic bone; but unfortunately, just as l fired, the beast wriggled sidewise to pass around a tuft of grass, so the bullet inflicted merely a slight flesh wound on the trump. She Whirled like a flash, and as she raised her head high to locate me, I had time to wish that the Springfield hit a trfle harder blow. Also l had time the barrel.
 "The moment she saw me she dropped her head and charged. She was thoroughly angry ana came very fast. I had just enough time t0 steady the gold bead on her chest and to pull trigger.
 At the shot; to my great relief, she turned bottom up, and I saw her tall for an instant above the grass -an almost sure indication cf a bad hit. She thrashed around, and made tremendous hulla- baloO of snarls and growls. I backed out slowly my rifle ready. It was no place fol mo for tnc f,rGsA was oVsr k, ct hi h

Labor day has become a great in few years ago and it is increasing in importance every year. It's great pur- pose is to establish organized labor more firmly by bringing union men to- gether and giving them a date from which to reckon events just as we reckon from the Fourth of July and as the French count from the Four teenth of July There is no doubt that the day has been one of the great contributory causes to the growth and stability of unionism.

sorry feature optional in the counties.

the immediate passage of this bill of
the Educational Committees for the

Be it further resolved, That twenty.
four States of the Union as well as
all countries of Europe, having enact.
ed laws, limiting the hours of labor
for women, that Maryland too, shall

coming generation. We ask this in
the name of humanity, morality and
welfare of the race and earnestly urge
our representatives in the Legisla-
ture to vote for the Ten.Hour Law
for Women.
