SITTING AS BOARD
 0f EQUALIZATION
Board Of Supervisors Acting On Assessment Rolls At
 Tombstone

TOMBSTONE, June 2.-(Special) )- The board Of supervisors, acting as a board of equalization, met Thursday and will be in session for the next ten days or from time to time as re- quired by law. The board will go over the rolls as turned in by County Assessor Hughes and make such changes as they deem best in the in- terests of the taxpayers of the county. Those who have complaints to make should appear before the board at this time as it is the only chance that they will have. Should the board make any raises Tn the assessments as turned in by the assessor the notice of the proposed raises will be published and the interested parties notified. The assessment rolls have Lot been totaled up and will not be until after the 20th, at which time the assessments of the mines, railroads, telegraph and telephone companies will be received from the state tax commission. There will probably be a slight increase in the totals from last year. The cattle assessments which were expected to fall off will not show such a big decrease and this will be offset by the thousands of acres of land that has been patented during the past few months. All of the Santa Fe and Moqui script lands that were being held will he placed on the rolls this year. The mine assessments this year will probably show an increase over last year. It is expected that the assessments this year will reach close to $104,O00, 900. The board will act as the board of equalization until the 10th of June.

 Road Gang at Work.
 One of the county road gangs, under NJ. Brown, has been at work for the past week on the road between here and the Bisbee Extension and have made considerable improvement in that thoroughfare. The loose rocks and those that were sticking up to any great extent were removed and num- Der of the deep ruts filled up. The gang is still working on the road but no great amount of repairs will be made at the present time on the road between the Government Draw and the Extension. A new road is to be surveyed between these places within the next week Or ten days as soon as the gang can be arranged for and then some preliminary work will be done on the road. The main repairs to be made now will be on the road between this city and the Government Draw.
 Registrations Coming In.
 There are now in the recorders of fee nearly 7,500 registrations from the different precincts of the county. This is about one half of what is expected before the fall elections. The women are not registering as fast as was eX pected. During the first week or so they registered rapidly but the past two weeks shows a falling off. There have been a number of requests to have registration blanks returned to parties who failed to state their party and who now want chance to put it on, as they have dis covered that they cannot vote in the primary. There are about three hun dred that will suffer from this over sight nnless some one is discovered | to allow them to change it. There | seems to be but little chance of this now under the decisions that have been rendered by Attorney General Wiley Jones and the county attorneys | of various counties who have looked | into the matter It behooves those who have not registered and who wish | to vote for candidates on the regular tickets to state their party affiliations.
