COTTON MEN VISIT BLYTHE.

Arglyle McLachlan, representative
of the cotton bureau in the depart
ment of agriculture, stationed at I'M
perial valley, and E. P. Riggle, in
charge of the cotton exchange at See
ley, were in the valley part of last
week looking over the cotton crop
here.
Mr.. Riggle stated that the cotton
exchange through which a majority
of the growers in the Imperial val
ley are selling their staple is doing
great work for the farmers. The
exchange, which has a branch in five
of the Imperial towns conducts a free
labor bureau, information bureau and
acts as selling agent for the cotton
growers.
The growers pay fee of 81 bale
to the exchange and this covers all
charges after the cotton leaves the
gin. The high prices which the ex-
change has been able to get for it's
members has made the dollar a bale
a paying investment according to Mr..
Riggle. 1t is this method of market
ing that has been largely responsible
for their getting a better price than
in this district
Mr. McLachlan, is enthusiastic over
the outlook for the long staple cotton
in this Colorado river country The
Imperial growers of Durango are get
ting nearly as large a yield as Me
bane planters and at present are re-
ceiving Is cents a pound for the sta
pie. He stated that the adverse re-
ports which had gone out regarding
the growing of Durango were inclin-
ed to be exaggerated. Mr.. McLach-
Ian firmly believes that long staple
cotton is to be the future product of
this district and is endeavoring to
impress upon the farmers the import
ance of keeping the seed pure.

THREE MONTHS AND 500.

Enricho Dominguez, the Mexican
who was arrested three weeks ago for
selling liquor to Indians, was last
week sentenced to three months i'm
prisonment and 500 fine by Judge
Walsh.
The Mexican was arrested charged
with federal offense but upon in
structions from the u. S. District
attorney in Los Angeles, was re-
arrested on charge of misdemeanor
and tried by the local justice. The
change in jurisdiction was caused by
the fact that the federal courts
in Los Angeles are overcrowded.
The Mexican pleaded guilty to the
charge against him. He was TAX
en- to Riverside Monday.

Railway,

Through her attorneys, w. Boyd
Hyans. of columbia. and James Il.
Tanning, of Springfield, Mrs. clara V.
Padgett, as administrative of the estate
If her husband, Lewis H. Padgets. has
brought suit in the Lexington county
court of common pleas against the
Sesboard Air Line Railway company
for S75, 900. Lewis H. Padgett. for
mer resident of Edgefeld county, was
employed as engineer for the Seaboard
aud while in the discharge of his duty,
at csyce, he fell into drop-pit in the
new round house at Csyce, his mangl-
ed body having been found on the
morning of January IL by his cowork-
ers, after an effort had been made to
find him by members of his train crew.
This is the largest amount ever ask
ed for b7 a plaintiff against railroad

exception of the Matte Moore case,
against the same company and for the
same amount, tried at the February

InuUeSt of T. E. Lewis.

Thos. Edward Lewis, shipping clerk
and foreman of the mixing de-
partment of the Pocomoe Fertilizer
Company at Cayce, met his death by
being crushed by some train OF the
Southern Railway, according to the
verdict of the cornoner's jury, which
was rendered at II O'Clock last night,
after a number of witnesses had been
sworn. The body of young Lewis was
found week ago today by train crew
No. q of the Southern Railway, lying
beside the tracks, with the upper por-
ton of his head crushed and a deep
long cash on the right side of neck.
After hearing the testimony Of two
witnesses last Sunday, at the request
of the jury, the proceedings were con-
tinued until O'Clock yesterday after
noon. Many witnesses were sworn
last night, and great deal of damag-
ing evidence going to show that the
young man had been murdered and
robbed, was adduced, but the blame
could not be placed on anyone. Sheriff
Miller, of this place, stated that the
finding of the coroner's jury did not
mean that the case would be dropped !;
that he would continue to work on the
case. Members of the jury believe. it
is said, that the man was killed .and
then placed on the track.

STATE VALUATIONS SHOW
CAIN OF l66 PERCENT
IN YEAR

The valuation of the various
counties of the state of Arizona,
after being equalized by the
boards of supervisors in the ca
pacity of boards of equalization,
are now in to the tax commission
and show an increase of $685.
983, 131. sc or 166 percent.
These totals were taken from
the assessors books of each and
every county in the state, and
from the abstracts of them.
Each county now has it's rolls
complete and there remains but
one more step to make in the
matter of making the levy for
the year, that is the assessments
have yet to be equalized by the
state board of equalization which
meets next week.
The radical increase in the valu-
alton of the property in the state
is the result of the activity of the
tax commission and of the asses
sors and supervisors in the vari
Gus counties. Early this spring
the tax commission issued an or
der to the effect that all property
must be assessed on it's full cash
value. The county officers, in
practically all cases, Immediately
placed their assessments on this
basis, and the increase noted
above is the result.
