points over last weeks close and at

was an advance OF 81 to 81 points.
Better weather conditions ruled
in the eastern a Of the cotton belt

ever. was not sufficient to balance
the reports of damage in the West.
The worst reports referred to South

of Texas and oklahoma was regarded
by the bulls as wanting moisture

The government has brought an action against Ora Haley and B. F. Saunders to cancel patent to tracts of land in the north part of this and Cc- conino counties. It is alleged in the complaint that at the time patent is- sued and at the present time neither one of the claimants have been resi- dents of that particular land district. Saunders is an old timer in the north part of this county. but is now under stood to be resident of Utah. The government takes the position that a claimant to lands must be resident of the district, and the final proof cer- ,ainly contemplates this view of the case.

Tax Commissioners.

c. M. Zander, c. R. Howe and P. J. Miller, composing the State Board of Tax Cor missioners, have been in kingman this week, meeting with the county board of equalization to talk over tax matters and try to get a line up on the matter of mine and other forms of taxation. The board recently ruled that all producing mines must be entered on the roll according to their production and from that basis the assessment must be made against the property. According to this the Gold Road, Tom Reed and Golconda mines would be hit for large assessment While the gold producers would have to pay on large production instead of a physical valuation of the property the base metals mines would be still harder hit. This would be the case with the mines such as the Golconda, whose product is shipped to Oklahoma. and the fixed charges against it's pro- duction amounts to more than sixty per cent of the values contained in the ores. It does not appear just and right that such mines be made to pay on something that they do not get, and we hardly believe it to be the in- tention of the commission to make a heavy levy against such a property. The same is true of the Grand Gu oh. which has to make long wagon haul and then ship its product to the Salt Lake smelters. A heavy assessment against them would practically wipe out any possibility of profit from thelr mining operations.
 Incidentally in connection with the assessment of property in this county, the Assessor has listed property to the amount of 3,SSO, O,OOOs, aside from that of the railroads, railroad lands, telegraph and telephone lines, express, private car service, and number of other things, which would bring the assessment up to about seven millions. It is probable that many listments of property will be added to by the board. The Santa Fe and its Western Railway line to Chloride, have been assessed at 2,443, ,OOOS, nearly as much as the entire tax roll of the county last year. While the listment of prop. erty will be nearly three times that of last year it is probable that the levy will be approximately the same, as the necessities of the state and county demands greater revenue.
