COUNTS COST
 OF GOVERNMENT.
In Spite of Higher Rate of Taxation, Lower Valua- tion Burden of Taxation Will Be About the Same as 1t Was Last Year.

The county budget for the year was approved by the board of super visors yesterday and the tax rate was fixed at 5S cents on each $1OO of valuation. Thus the total rate for state. and county purposes is SLIP as against 96 last year. The county rate last year was 51IR
 Inasmuch as the valuation of coun- ty property. for purposes of taxation has been reduced about $3,000, GOO, it is estimated that the amount of tax will be about the same as last year. that is, the amount paid on the same property
 The increased rate is higher on ac- count of added expenses, including. the expense of the second division of the superior court about $10.000. the expenses attending the semi annual payment of taxes amounting to about S32O0 and the appropriation for rne state fair. The budget aggregates about $261,000 as against s237,O last year.
 The city rate is S5 cents this year so that counting the lower valuation the taxes will be lower than they were last year. The additional rates for the various school districts are as follows:
 Phoenix high school .......... .23 Mesa Union high school ........ 70 TpmDp higb Ccbn11 or

RUFUS COMES BACK
 GETS NINETY DAYS

On the day, some weeks ago, that lI;ufus Marshall, negro, looking for work and praying that he would not find it, was arrested for associating with Madeline Starr, he deposited twenty dollars with the city magis- trate as an evidence that he would he on hand Go stand trial. Then he se- cured a continuance or two and final ly failed to appear on the trial day. He felt that in forfeiting bail his case would be dropped.
 However, the police thought other wise, and on Saturday evening brought him to the police station. They also brought Madeline along for good measure. The old charge was re- Vived and Marshall was handed sentence of ninety days in the city Jail. Then the judge told Marshall that the sentence would not become effective for forty eight hours, which meant that the prisoners would have just that length of time to shake the dust of Phoenix from their feet.

SAFEGUARDING HUMAN LIFE

At regular meeting of the Bronx
Board of Business Agents of the New
York Building Trades Council, the
following resolution was unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, the twelve lives that
were lost in the Diamond factory fire
/ Brooklyn, N. Y, November 6, 1915
were sacrificed to the prevailing idea
that safety from fire is assured more
by exits than by recognized methods
of controlling incipient fires; and
WHEREAS, investigation reveals
, that the unfortunate workingmen and
workingwomen were victims of Off
cial negligence-the Diamond factory
was known to be unsafe, the owner
was not compelled to make it safe
and such easily accomplished means
of protection as fire alarm and auto
matte sprinkler systems were ignor-
ed and that the state and city gov
eminent is impOtent to protect from
wholesale slaughter the lives of peo-
pie striving hard for their sustenance
in the factories of this great state-a
severe Indictment of our laws and
their administration; and
WHEREAS, the safety of working
people from horrible and heart-rend-
ing murders in fire-trap factories and
shops is not assured by laws that al
low conflict of authority and make
troublesome the fixing of responsible
ity for fire disasters; laws admitted
ly difficult to comply with and open
ly violated; laws that ignore the prac-
teal achievements in the science of
fire CONTROL laws that require fire
men to risk their lives in fighting
easily preventable fires; laws that re-
lieve employers of the responsibility
of protecting the lives of workers and
impose it, not upon the state, but
upon the working people by requiring
them to seek safety outside of build
ings instead of being under protection
within; and
WHEREAS, the precious lives lost
in the Diamond factory fire would
have been saved if the fire had been
controlled in its incipency either by
automatic sprinklers or by the fire
department quickly responding to an
fire alarm or if it had been
confined to the place of origin by
