MUCH WORK AHEAD
 OF THE LEGISLATURE

PHOENIX, May z9.-From a source of authority close to the throne, the Journal-Miner repre- sentative is informed that the governor will embrace the fol- lowing subjects in his call for the second extra session that will convene next Tuesday:
 l. Veto of the tax levy which was passed by unanimous vote of both houses.
 2. Veto of that section of the appropriation bill which reduced the employees in the incorporat- ing department from five to two.
 3. Veto of that section which through a clerical error, reduced the salary of the stenographer of the secretary of state from $1OO to S75 a month.
 4. Capital punishment, mak- ing the extreme penalty life-im- prisonment but not subject to a pardon.
 5. Providing for a labor com missioner.
 6. Permitting and regulating the sale of grain alcohol.
 7. To amend or repeal the law for the semi-annual payment of taxes.
 8. To provide for a miners hospital.
 g. To enact a land code.
 10. To regulate salaries in counties of the second class, re- ferring exclusively to Cochise.
 II. Relief for Navajo and Apa- che counties.
 It is predicted that fully 60 days will be required to act upon all of these propositions.

so literally rewarded in the property last mentioned. The Mohawk may in all justice be classed as preferred prospect of promising ore yielding possibilities as it is traversed by bold and well mineralized lodges and is neighbor to proven mines.
 The Big Jim's Octopus group is nearby the Pioneer group which was recently transferred by the Pioneer Consolidated Mines company to a syndicate of Colorado mining men for several hundred thousands dollars. Development work is being prosecut- ed under favorable mineral condi- tions. The deal of the Pioneer com pany with the Coloradoans included the tranfer of valuable equipment consisting of an 80-horse power en- zine and a 500-cubic foot compressor; a 25-horse power engine and hoist; a 15-horse power hoist; a 10-stamp mill and cyanide plant, and mine buildings and tools The foregoing facts are mentioned with the object of demonstrating the value of the acreage in the vicinity of the Octopus and the scope of mining operations thereon.
 New Phone Line.
 The first message over the new tele- phone line connecting Oatman with Topock on the Santa Fe railway went out this week from the Tom Reed mine to the Tom Reed company's s freight office at the point last men toned. Allen H. Ware, general man ager of the Arizona California Nevada Telephone company, builder of the new line, states that work on the telephone exchange building in this camp will be started on June lst, and that the phone system to the mines of the district will be in oper- ation within thirty days thereafter.
 The Harsud claims, two fractions lying between the United Western and the Long and McIver group, were taken over a few days ago by ]. o. A. Carper of Denver and Grip pie Creek Mir. Carper has also taken over the Straight, Cash Entry and Hardy groups and the Moonlight and Sunlight claims.

Special to the Journal Miner.

Special to the Journal Miner.
 PHOENIX, May 25.-By vote of 25 to 10 the house late this afternoon adopted the report of the conference committee on the appropriation bill, and it goes to the senate in the morn ing. The bill carries approximately an appropriation of S3,0OO,0OO for the biennial period as against $4,400,O00 of two years ago.
 Owing to compromises which gave appropriations for a dormitory for the Flagstaff normal, mining build ing for the state university, and in creased maintenance for the Tempe normal, the bill is $15O,OOO in excess of the original appropriation bill passed by the house.
 Before the measure came to a vote Pinkley of Pinal, defantly announced that he had twelve votes pledged to him, which would defeat the confer ence report but the vote indicated that he was running big bluff, and Johns of Yanapai, called" with the result that the measure received the necessary two-thirds vote.

existed in the treasury at the close of the present year, the tax rate for the ensuing year will not be reduced much below that of last year. This net deficit is $56O,000.
 In drafting the bill different meth cd was pursued from that of the pre- vious session. No maximum rate was placed in the bill, but the various items appropriated and those covered by other demands, such as interest on bonds and such other fixed charges, were all compiled and added to the total amount embraced in the legis- lative appropriations, and it remains for the board of equalization to fix the rate, which it has always done heretofore, making the naming of a maximum rate simply superhuous.
 After going over the various appro- priations and fixed charges, Auditor Callaghan and his office force made estimates of the probable rate re- quired and found that for the present year a rate of .4413 will be required, estimating the taxable property at $AOO,O00,OOO, which is $7,OO0O00 less than last year.
 The rate for next year on the same estimate should be not more than .345, the higher rate this year being caused by the deficit The appropria- ton bill has been so drawn that there should be no deficit next year, as all appropriations are specifically made and no blanket appropriations enact cd Another item is also added to inc total for this year in the separate appropriations made during the reg ular session, but which are not re peatcd in the appropriation bill.
 The total budget for the two years aggregates as follows: For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1916, $1,765,- 723.25; for the fiscal year ending June 90, 1917, $1,3SO,963.15.
 The next extra session of the lcgis- lature will probably add to this bull get. as any land legislation enacted will carry with it an additional ex- pense.
 PHOENIX, May 29.-In spite of the fact that a petition signed by 800 prominent business men and taxpay- CTS of Maricopa county has been pre- sented to the governor, asking that mine tax legislation be included in his call for a special session of the legislature, and in spite Of the further act that a great majority of voters throughout the state desire such leg station, the governor responded to n inquiry as to his intentions regard ng the matter with the cryptic re- mark: "See anything green in my eye"
 This is interpreted by the admin ;stration's soothsayers and crystal gazers to mean that dill pickles will grow on apple trees before the gov ,rnor will permit the legislature to consider this important matter.

 Western Well Financed.
 The directorate of the United West ern company has sold block of 10O,- 900 treasury shares at twenty-five cents per share under conditions which eliminate all cash commissions. This means that every share was sold at twenty-five cents per share, and that every share sold netted the com pany's treasury twenty-five cents per share. It also means that the United Western company is well financed for future development work. The company's machinery equipment was bought on a cash basis at a cash basis price, and will be paid for in cash upon its arrival at the mine in good condition There yet remains in the company's treasury 500,000 shares of stock, and arrangements are being made by the directors to sell an allotment of 100000 shares in the East and Middlewest at fifty cents per share.
 Development work in the Pittsburg mine is being furthered under nor nal conditions now that the heavy flow of water which for a period of thirty days inundated the workings has been controlled and the mine been unwatered. The drifts to the east and west on the 300-foot level, from which the miners were driven when the water burst through the vein casing, have been extended length of 150 feet. The west drift shows marked improvement in min eral conditions and presents strong indications of making into large body of pay ore. The Pittsburg is considered ono of the most promis- ing partially developed mines in the district by all persons who are con versant with thei mineral showing therein. Present conditions warrant the statement that it will in due course be classed with the pay ore producers.
 Plant For Big Jim.
 A 25-horse power hoist and com pressor have been ordered for the Big Jim group-one of three groups located within the camps pay area that are owned by the Big Jim Gold Mining company. A depth of 500l feet is the objective in the shaft to be sunk under contract on the Big Jim group. The acreage is admirably To- cated for the discovery of pay orc in large tonnage as it lies between the Black Eagle and Ben Harrison claims of the Tom Reed company, both of which carry ore bodies of demonstrated value. Deep mining, 2ncrgetically prosecuted, sums up the development campaign planned by the Big Jim directorate.
 On the company's Mohawk group, located between the estate of the | United Western company and that of he Tom Reed company and adjacent 10 the United Eastern mine, develop nent work is to be prosecuted along ines similar to those that are being l

 PHOENIX, May 26-Responding 10 tclephonic summons from Presi- dent Sims, Senators Bacon and Kin ney arrived by automobile from Globe late this afternoon, and their presence completed the l3 votes necessary to adopt the senate conference commit tee report on the appropriation bill, as adopted yesterday by the house.
 There were six absentees, among them Senator Munds, who cast the sole negative vote against the senate measure. She worked in the house, particularly upon Mrs. Berry, to pre- vent that body yesterday from adopt ing the conference committee report, and her absence today is regarded as peculiar
 By the vote yesterday, g to 10 the administration forces, which have stood for the continuance of the land commission, and other extravagances, were badly routed. It was stinging defeat for the Hunt lobby and the main credit for the victory is due to Representative Johns of Yavapai, Loyalty backed by Leepe7 and Orthel, all of whom throughout the session have stood for every measure de- signed to effect an economical and efficient system of government.
 Those who voted against the con ference report, after each had drawn $231 of the taxpayers money, for this extra session, were: Briscoe, Claypool, Edwards, Farrell, Francis, Lee, Mahoney, Pinkley, Proctor and Sweeney.
 Both houses will probably remain in session until Saturday in order to be in a position to act in case the governor vetoes the appropriation bill, which has cost $25,OOO to form uldlC anu lludl4g pdSo'
 It is expected that Hunt will issue his call for the second extra session to convene next Monday.
 PHOENIX, May ?. - Usually a mild hammered man of urbane de meanor, Representative Mahoney of Mohave, lost his temper this morning, and shaking aloft a copy of yester- days Journal-Miner, denounced it as dirty rag" and expressed the in humane wish that a way could be found to exclude it from the floor of the house.
 The reason given for the verbal eX- plosion was the article concerning Pinkley of Pinal which gently chided him for his thrift in resigning his position as carctakcr of the Casa Grande ruins, and having his wife appointed to fill the vacancy in order that he might serve his countrymcn in the legislature
 In the plcnitude of his natural gal lantry, Mr. Mahoncy considered this as reflection upon the lady and it offered him opportunity to relieve his feelings which have been at high ten sion since the Hunt faction in the house was defeated in the appropria- ton bill fight. Proctor and Lines, valiant but vanquishcd cohorts of Mir Mahoncy, also spoke in the same vein, and Johns and Christy sought 10 pour oil on the troubled waters by explaining that men in public office must expect criticism and should stand the gaff like thoroughbrcds. The temperature then subsided and various members then took occasion to throw bouquets at MT Pinklcy who unfortunately was not present to hear the enconiums and public ac- llnowledgement of his statesman ship. Lest the gentleman from Pnal might acquire too much fame, Johns moved a recess and that closed the incident
