MINING CLAIMS ARE
 TAXABLE PROPERTY

PHOENIX. May 5-That mining claims are Roperty in the fullest sense of the world. distinct from the land H. self. vendible. inheritable and taxable. is the decision of the supreme court handed down yesterday in the case of Frank and Josephine Powers vs. R. K. Earhart, treasurer and ex-officio tax col. Iector of Santa Cruze county The case which was brought to secure the repay ment of taxes paid under protest on the Harshaw group of mining claims. was reverse and remanded with directions to sustain the demurrer and dismiss the action.
 In its opinion the supreme court de- fines mining claims as right to engage in mining operations. and as in m way affecting the ownership of the land which in this case was vested in the United States court The court held that the state had the power to tax the mining claims in question and that if it had been necessary to enforce col lection of the tax by sale of the pro pc rty. such a sale would have conveyed merely the right of possession and af- fect~d no interest of the United States

SLOT MACHINES AND
 PUNCH BOARDS MUST 60

Sheriff Harry Wheeler of Cochise county has sent out the following let ter 10 all his deputies in the county re- ferring to the operation of slot machines and punch boards, in the county
 Dear Sir
 In view of the recent action, in Pima County, whereby slot machines aud punch boards are declared ille g al. wheth CT played for money or checks. or any consideration whatever will instruct all my deputies to arrest any and all persons found using slot machines or punch boards. whether for money. cred il. checks or merchandise. after the 18th of this month (May) Because of pre- vious uncertainty regarding these devi- ces May l2th is given all persons in possession of said machines, that they may take advantage of this warning In yiew of Judge Lock wood decision wherein he upheld the action of this of- flee as regards 2cc and Barrette. all Dep uties are instructed to arrest all persons making or selling any 2cc, Barrette. Golden Ribbon. Golden Ribbon. or in fact any near beer. or any modification of beer, or any similar beverage, made 0. sold under any name whereby the regular purpose of the Dry or Prohibi- ton Law is intended to be defeated. thwarted or evaded.
 All Deputies are again instructed to arrest any and all persons playing any card game money or checks that repre- sent money. Pang uini or any similar game, tho not mentioned in the statues, to my mind is as much a gambling game as poker or any other game

TOMBSTONE IS
 LOOMING UP NICELY

Tombstone is looking better all the time and there is every indication that the county seat will soon attain once more something of her former glory as a camp of famous mines. according to the statement of Douglas Gray, presi dent of the Machomich Mercantile company. who was here yesterday.
 The Phelps Dodge company is con- stantiy increasing the number of men employed on the properties which they took over about a year ago. The upper levels of the various shafts are being thoroughly prospected. while the mill is being repaired in order to make test runs on low grade ores which lie on these levels in large quantities. The various shafts are being thoroughly repaired. timbering being replaced with new timbers wherever necessary,
 As a resnlt of these activities Tomb stone people are feeling more and more confident of the future. Even the water problem in the mines no longer strikes them as being nsuperable. The quantity of water to be lifted does not strike them as being too great problem for the efficient engineering staff of the big company to solve. II is pointed out by Mir. Gray that the quantity of water to be lifted to un- water the lower le veis of the proper ties is 10 greater than that handled at Globe. The chief difficulty lies in the fact that it must be brought up trough one shaft-Dispatch.

 According to report published in Mexican newspapers, Gen. P. Elias "alies. commander of the garrison at 2 qua Prieta. made an unsuccessful attempt to enlist Lieut. Col. Juan Talsmsntes in his cause.

 'I have received your letter in which you invite me. in company with the forces under my command. to join your troops.
 Such a proposition has caused me no little hilarity and l must tell you in all frankness that my men feel as l do and that We will never turn trait or. We have the conviction of serv- ing noble cause and would much pre- and glory of the cause than to enjoy and riches and honors at the expense of those who trusted us.
 Should it SO happen that the innu- cerable victories attained by the glo- rious division of the north be turned into so many defeats for us: should fate conspire against us and the tri- umph of our ideals turn into chi. mera, to the eternal misfortune of the fatheriand. then.
