sion handed down by the Supreme
Court The decision is considered oil
the utmost Importance, inasmuch as
IL reversed a verdict of the District
Court of Mesa county which. II allowed

dered impracticable the enforcement
OF the game laws of the state.
The Supreme Court also upheld the
right of the state to impose a nav tax
upon foreign corporations in Colorado
engaged in il erstate business. The
litigation dates back to the admins
tration of James Cowie as secretary
of state when the Colorado South
ern refused to pay flat tax OF cents
per 81 900 OF its capitalization, claim
ing among other things that 1t was
exempt from such tax because en-
gagged in interstate business. In max
ing its finding the Supreme Court up
held the question of states rights as
applied to taxation.
There must be limit and line
drawn somewhere concerning the
question of interference with Inter
state Commerce by way Of taxation,
If government by states is to con-
tinue," says the decision.

Diversified Mineral Products of Northern Part of State Guarantee a Wonderful
 Showing in Mines for 1916.
(By William P. De Wolff

PRESCOTT. Arizona. Jan. S.--At the outset of 1916-a year of splendid promise for the mining interests of Arizona-Yavapai County enters upon what bids fair to be the most prosper ous cycle in it's mining history A cy- cle that will in all probability record. not rejuyenated mining industry for nothing moribund attaches to it as al present established-but one in which the performances of past years will be exceeded and new and even more enviable record be established.
 Plans to that end are we'll advanced and are being furthered in manner which bespeak their success along di- versifed lines of mining endeavor. These plans have the backing and f. nancial support of the large monied interests. with the result that cam paign of mining development in gener- al has been formulated along progress i've and well defined lines.
 A rodeo of the year which has just been thrown into the discard of time. discloses the agreeable fact that it was one of unprecedented mining a. chievement in Yavapai County. Which is to say. it surpassed all previous years in the scope. energy and value of the mining work accomplished.

FURTHER EFFORT MADE TO GET

Director of United States Bu- reau of Mines Writes on
 Status of Matter. Three to

Advices from the United States Bu- reau of Mines of the Department of Interior make it possible for the direc. tors of the Commercial Club to outline further plans for their efforts to se- cure for Arizona g mine experiment station. These advices are contained lin the reply oflyan H. Manning. direc- tor of the Bureau of Mines to the let ter sent him by Secretary Gray of the Commercial Club.
 Mir Manning writes that while con gross at the last session authorized the establishment of ten mining expe- riment stations in addition to those al ready established. no funds were pro vided to cover the cost of establishing and maintaining. The necessary funds for three such stations are included in the Bureaus estimates for the next fiscal year. The authorizing act per mits the creation of only three such stations in any one fiscal year. Thus it appears that the first thing necessa. " is the passage of the appropriation bill that includes these items.
 Continuing. MT. Manning says that. when the necessary funds are made available and are forthcoming. the matter of location of the first three stations will be determined by the Sec retary of Interior, in whose hands the

OLD DOMINION MAY
 LIST ITS SHARES ON NEW YORK EXCHANGE
Gila County Property's Stock,
 Now Listed on Boston Ex-
 change, May Soon be on New York Market.

Word comes from Boston that there is more than an even chance that ap- plication will soon be made for the listing of the shares of the Old Do minion Go. of Maine on the New York Stock Exchange. There are 2ss,s5s shares outstanding. par $25. of 35O.- 900 shares authorized. The matter is in the nebulous stage. but the argu- ments ih favor of New York listing appeals to the Old Dominion manage ment.
 In the first place, Phelps. Dodge & Co. and their friends control more than a majority of the stock. and as the headquarters of this copper group are in New York this controlling in- terest is naturally in favor of having a market for Old Dominion on the New York Stock Exchange Besides this owner ship. which by the way. is individual and not as a corporation. there are over 1000 other sharehold- CTS. many of whom look with favor upon the plan.
 Another reason for seeking a N-w York listing is that Old Dominion shares have had a very narrow mar ket ie Boston. and the complaint has often been made when New York in terests wished to add to their hold ings that 1t could be done only by bidding up the price. Conversely, if it became necessary to sell it could be done neither quickly nor without sacrifice of values.
