PHONE RATE OPPOSED

Anniston, June 9.-(Special )-Capt. A. r Agee, leading attorney and for severa years connected in various capacities with the city government Is being given warm support in the fight he is making Anniston, to be secured at a special ses- sion of the legisla ture through constitu. tional amendment.
 Captain Agee states that several oi the leading citizens of Annston have pledged their support in the matter of securing the tax increase, realizing thai while it would amount to a very slight additional burden upon the property own CT individually. 1t would mean much to- ward relieving the financial embarrass- ment of the city and at the same time reduce the burden of exhorbitant occupa- tion taxes
 With the lowest rate of taxation of any city in the country. in all probability Captain Agee says Anniston has reached d crisis in it's affairs and has outgrown it's present revenue limitations. Addi- tional sewerage in West Anniston and in the northern part of the city is badly needed. as are better health precautions in other respects public library is these things are dependent on more reve- nue.
 A public meeting to discuss the ques- tion is being considered and 1t may be called at an early date.
 Notwiths standing the fact that the city council committee was reported favor ably on the proposition, considerable op- position has developed to the proposed increase in telephone rates in Anniston. Gerard Schumacher general manager of the Union Foundry company has been collecting data on charges made in other cities and has laid the comparative rates before the people. Judge D. c. Black we'll representative in the next legisla- ture has also gone on record against the raise. suggesting that 1t be investigated by the Chamber of Commerce. This may be done.
 Speeding in Anniston must be stopped, ,' said Judge J. F. Green from the police court bench Tuesday morning, and I announce herewith that the next man arraigned before me for this offense. whether white or black, will be put to work on the streets of the city, if con- victed."

Ell PAsO WHEN MEXICO HAS PEACE.

Apparently the dominating thought of the
energetic citizens of FL Paso at this beginning of
the New Year is the marvellous development that
is scheduled to grasp their city Immediately upon
the ending of the civil war in Mexico. The
daily press of the Border City is in a happy mood
when in discussion of this uppermost Question; in
this outlook it is in sympathy with the united
voice of the business community all firms OF the
city evidently making preparations for the era OF
progress that is destined to favor the city of
their pride.
Even though Mexico should fail in having
peace, FL Paso could yet go forward with strides
in her progressive career. Arizona and New
Mexico alone have sufficient resources to guaran-
tee to FL Paso permanent career as their COM
merca1 center. And with the great field afford
ed by the western portions OF Texas, bright flu
ture is promised El Pasoans But peace will come
to Mexico and with its coming an era OF pros
perity before experienced will make OF FL
Paso city that will be known the metropolis
of empire of possibilities that will require gen
erations in their development.

COOPERATION WITH ARIZONA.

The Forest Service announces the
com pletion of a cooperative agree
ment with the State Land Commits
sion of Arizona, whereby the western
yellow pine on the University lands
comprising approximately 10000
acres within the Coconino and Tusy-
an National Forests in northern Ari-
iona is to be cut in accordance with
the Forest Service contract require
ments. This marks a distinct step
in the progress of conservation. Ari-
IONA isthe first state in the South
west to cut its timberlands on for
estry principles. In accordance with
the terms of the agreement, the trees
to be cut are to be marked by an
agent of the State who will be a
trained forester, and the cutting will
only remove about two-thirds of the
standing timber. The remainder is
to lie left for a second cut and for
seed. A close utilization of the
merchantable produce is a part of the
agreement with the lumber company
and the stumpage price agreed upon
is placed at SO 90 per thousand feet.
The agreement also provides for the
the fire season by the State, whose
duty will be the protection of the
timber on the University lands from
fire. Since these lands are surround
ed by National Forest lands, the need
for cooperation in the prompt dis
covery and suppression of forest fires
has been fully recognized in the agree
ment.

THE VALUE OF ARIzONA's MINES.

OF the utmost qualification to the residents
of Arizona making their pride in their state all
the stronger, is the announcement of the United
States geological survey to the effect that the to-
tai output of Arizonas mines for the year 1913
was ST., ooo,ooo.oo.
Arizona is recognized among mining
men the world over as the premier state in the
production of copper; it is conceded that in the
very future the young state, Judging from
proven formations, will have established name
as leading producer of gold and silver, these
fine metals every year being found in greater
abundance. From every direction and every
county of the state there daily comes information
of new discoveries, until the inhabitants
aroused the fact that their attracting the
attention of all who make of mining their
livelihood 1t is said that nowhere in the world
can be found more advanced methods of concen-
tration that are daily in operation at the sites of
Arizonas many mines And these reduction
plants being yearly increased that the volume
of the mineral wealth might be constantly ncreas-
ed In mining alone Arizona has resources that
will suffice to make of it commonwealth that
will prove of the greatest importance in compari-
son with the union of states.
