Rebels Firing Over Into Texas.

Ell Paso, Texas.-Disguised as a rebel
soldier, San Jarvis has arrived here
on a freight train from Colonia Bublan,
the American settlement, 200 miles
southwest of the border.
Travelling overland toward the west.
he says, are the men who remained
last week when the women and chill
dren were sent to Ell Paso. Fearing
to move north through rebel territory
they preferred to take chances by
joining the federal army of General
Sanjines which is approaching rapidly
the Casas Grandes district.
Jarvis said the men who departed
Saturday from their homes of many
years, did not join the federals as
fighting men, although the Americans
are carrying a few rifles hidden at the
time of the rebel confiscation of arms
held by foreigners. They merely be-
lleve, according to Jarvis, that the fed
eral army will offer better protection.
Village Is Deserted.
The village that a month ago con-
tanned 1900 Americans is deserted by
its inhabitants, the rich fields untitled
and the Americans homes occupied by
about 400 Mexican rebels, who have
taken possession of everything left by
the refugees. Jarvis remained to at
tend to the shipping to Ell Paso of two
cars of provisions which the men
could not carry on their overland Jour-
ney, and which they believed would
be of service to their wives and chill
dren now refugees in Ell Paso. The
shipment of the provisions to Jaurez
was prohibited by rebel leaders, Jarvis
says.
Jarvis, a young Mormon in his teens.
believed he could not reach the border
in safety unless in disguise.

ASSESSMENT OF
MINERAL RIGHTS
AUDITOR GENERAL FULLER is
SUES CIRCULAR OF lNSTRUc.
TONS TO THE ASSESSING
OFFlC GERS.

Auditor General Fuller has issued a
circular of suggestions and instruc
tons 10 the assessing officers relative
Go the assessment Of mineral reserva-
tons under a law enacted by the last
regular session OF the legislature, as
follows:
This act provides that In all cases
where the mineral rights are owned
by other than the owners @. the sur
face rights, such mineral rights shall
he assessed separate from the surface
rights.
In the case Of mines in actual oper-
alton, the mineral rights owned by
such mining company are in many in
stances a great deal more extensive
than the mining company's ownership
OF surface rights. Where the mineral
reservations owned by such companies
are contiguous 10 the mining prop
critics the value OF such contiguous
mineral reservations Is properly taken
into consideration in determining the
true cash value OF the property, and in
such cases I'm assessing the surface
rights which are not a part OF the
mining property. the description should Z
be less mineral reservation" but
there should be no separate assess Y
ment of the mineral reservation on I
such descriptions for the reason that !
the value of such reservations has al |
ready been taken into consideration in 4
fixing the cash value Of the mining /
property.
The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1912-04-03

Since October. 1903. in all sales ~

missioner, there has been a reser-.stior
Of all mineral rights 10 the state and
only the surface rights have been con.
vcyed. and in assessing sucn lardF 20
the owners, the same should co. ar
sessed less mineral reservation. There
need not. however. be any aEsessnert

being reserved under the provisions
Of Section 3 Of Act ESQ. public acts of
1909 as amended by act 294. public actsI
OF 1911
The mineral reservation should. OIL

same, and in order 10 determine such
ownership, Il viii undoubtedly DC nee
ossary for the assessing officer to make
an examination TO some extent at leas.
OF the records in the office OF the regis
ter OF deeds, and undoubtedly thei
township boards. village or city coun-
ellis, would be willing TO authorize SIS
assessing officers TO do whatever * /
necessary 20 he done in order to com.
Tly with the provisions Of said act.
The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1912-04-03

u is probably true that in many
c"nveyances, there are reservations of
mineral rights, and that such rcserva-
lions have no known value. In such
cases there should Doe an assessment
OF the land less mineral reservation. to
be followed by a description of the
mineral reservation. with A note on
Dosite thereto stating that the same
is q no known value.
The tax roll should be an exact COM.
Of the assessment roll Including the
notes relative % mineral reservations
as assessed OF not.
Section six o. said act reads as fol-
lows:
In assessing such lands for the mr.
pose Of taxation. the value OF the right
reserved as fixed by the assessor shall
be deducted from the whole value oil
such lands as fixed by him. and only
the differences between the value such
reserved interest AM the whole value
Of said lands as 80 fixed shall be as
sessed against the owner of TIE sur
face right fee or the remaining inter.
est therein.
The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1912-04-03


Under the provision OF Section . of
said act, it becomes necessary in the
assessment Of the mineral rights. in
50 far as the description Of the same
may be concerned. that such assess
nent must conform 20 the assessment
a the surface rights. that is 10 say: If
the mineral reservation under an en-
tire section is owned by any one indl-
idual. company. partnership or
corporation. IL should not be assessed
merely as mineral reservation in Sec
ton ], - but should be assessed i'm the
same manner as far as descriptions
are concerned, as the surface rights
are assessed 70 the various owners on
the same section. This same rule would
apply 10 the assessment OF mineral.
reservations in plated property. and
u the mineral reservations in the en-
tire plat is owned by one person. firm
CT corporation, and the various lots
in such plats are owned separately.
then there must be a separate assess
ment and valuation of the minera,
reservation on each particular lot or
lots according 70 the ownership of the
surface rights.
The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1912-04-03

In using the actual operation" in
connection with mining properties IL
IS not intended 10 mean that at tho
time OF the listing Of propery for as
sessment. such mines must be in ac-
tual operation. but the term Is used in
showing a distinction which exists
between mining properties and min
cral rights which are not actually con-
tiguous 10. or a part o., the mining
property.
In making an assessment under this
act. the description should be given
less the exception as follows:

The surface rights should be assess

same rule should be observed so as toI
assess the mineral reservation TO the

the same.
