HON. NEIL BAILEY |S GOVERNOR WILSON
 ENTHUSIAST
We'll Known Democrat Says Northern Part of State is Strong For New
 Jersey Governor.

PHOENIX far as Yavapai County is concerned, we will give two votes for Gov. Wilson for president for every one for Taft and Roosevelt com bined." Thus spoke Neil H. Bailey, one of Arizonas best known demo- crats who is in the city today from Jerome Junction.
 The people of northern Arizona remember Taft'S record when Arizo- na desired admittance to the Union as a state, and hold his unheard- of actions against him to such a degree that he will be left at the post. As far as Roosevelt is concerned, we all remember how he endeavored to hitch Arizona onto the tail of the New Mexico kite when the joint-state- hood matter was under discussion, and this will prevent him getting hundreds of votes that he would oth- erwise receive" added MT. Bailey.
 Bailey, who was once speaker of the legislature is in close touch with democrats all over the state and from letters he receives almost daily, is of the opinion that the re- mainder of Arizona is as strong for Governor Wilson as is Yavapai coun- ty.

 Will Expiate Grimes on Oct. ii

PRESCOTT-Migue Peralta was sentenced to death by Judge Smith in the Superior Cour yesterday for the murder of Mrs. Carmen Aros at Jec- ome on June 29 last. The date of his execution was fixed for October Il, at the state penitentiary.
 Peralta shot and killed the woman and a Mexican named Juan Delgado entering the room occupied by both and later made his escape He was captured near Tucson eighteen days afterward and brought to this city. where an information charge of murder was filed against him. He appeared in court and pleaded guilty to both crimes. His plea was ac- cepted by Judge Smith, who in- formed him, however, that this ac- tion would not be construed by the court in mitigation of his crime. Sentence was deferred for several days and yesterday was set for the accused to face the inevitable Many witnesses were examined after the man confessed to the double murder rom whom the evidence was conclusive of the committing of a cold-blooded murder in each case
 Peralta will probably be taken to Florence tonight to await his doom. There have been sentenced to death in this city inside of one month four murderers- B. Chavez, for killing officer Charles King at Je- rome; William Campbell, colored, for the killing of Kid Kirby in Prescott: Miguel Perez flor the shooting of F'eliciano Chacon at Congress June tion, and the one of yesterday, all due to eXpiate their crimes on the fatal day of October II, next. In senteenc- ing Peralta yesterday but one crime was specified, and the murder of his other victim was not passed upon by the court. Peralta's only response on being asked why the death penalty should not be imposed was: AS long as I committed the crime I have noth- Ing to say"

counties.

There is, however, bright side to the picture. The taxable valuation in the state of Arizona will be far in ex- cess of the valuation heretofore ap- bearing on the books of the territory This year it will probably go over $150, ,000,000. This will mean a levy of about $1.30. Of this S1.3O, 65 cents will have to be paid into those funds which can be regarded as extraordin- ary, while the other 65 cents will take care of the demands of the state government. Considering the added burdens of government to the state and the deficit left by the recent gov ernment, the tax rate this year cannot be considered excessive. The gen eral belief is that next year the rate will be lower on account of the work ings of the tax commission and so on until they reach a minimum. It has been the experience of every state that as soon as it passed from territo- rial government to state government the burdens of the government for a while were greater than those of the territorial fc~-r

WHO WILL HANDLE SCHOOL LANDS ON
 FOREST RESERVES
Dispute Occures Between State and Government Officials Alas To Who
 Shall Have Control

The land question in the state
 of Arizona is conceded to be one
 of the most intricate problems be-
 The administration of the land laws
 is also conceded to be equally
 difficult, presenting questions that
 are not easy of solution. For the
 proper administration of these laws,
 and to perform such other duties as
 and selecting still other lands in lieu
 of those which have been disposed ot
 or settled since the first allotment was
 made many years ago, a state land commission was created by the last legislature and appointed. by Governor Hunt. Since it's organization the land commission has been busily engaged in formulating a scheme for Keeping the school lands which have been leased still under the same lessees until such time as the state by defin- ite action decides either to retain the title in perpetuity or to sell the lands to the settlers.
 In it's work the commission has encountered many problems that are difficult of settlement, but no one more nose above the horizon of the con- missions duties within the last few days. The United States Forest Ser vice and the state land commission have come to a conflict of authority upon the question of administering designated school lands, and the set tier who happens to be on the school lands within the exterior limits of the forest reserves is in a quandary. not knowing which is the Caesar to whom he must pay tribute
 The state land commission leases the land; the forest reserve leases the land; both administer the same land, l or at least they are trying to, and the result of this may be some try ing and continued litigation in the United States court. The controversy proper rages around the right of the land commission to administer the | law with reference to sections l6 and | 36, and some of the settlers on these | lands claim that they are harassed by | the employees of the forest service in | the peaceable possession of the land i which they have leased In some | cases the forest service, it is claimed, | 1as gone so far as to cut down fences and threaten to remove buildings that | nave been erected on these numbered 1 
 A majority of these cases are in the northern part of the state, and | most of the men effected are either cattle or sheep men, who, in addition to their having leased school land, are also renters of pasture from the for est service, and many of them are To- cated upon sections 16 and 36, hay ng been there, many of them, from a ,ime prior to the creation of the | national forests. The creation of the national forests in many instances placed the exterior limits of the for ests around the locations of these cat .le and sheep men, and under the au- ,hority of the secretary of interior it is understood the lands have been
