been authorized BY the commissioners
and worked out by the prosecuting at
torney.
At the outset II IL known that the
first step of the commissioners will be
to attempt to collect the $4,000 bond
OF the former assessor and ex officio
tax collector given by the Fidelity &
Deposit company OF Maryland, Of
which McCrea & Merryweather Of Spo-
kane are general agents.
Mr.. Smith moved from the state since
1912. and IL now believed to be living
In California.
A deplorable condition Of laxity In
the matter Of keeping the county rec
ords Is said to have been revealed by
the examiners.
Practically every known offense In
the category OF fraudulent entries has
been disclosed, ranging from the dis
appearance of entire books to the mu-
tilation Of special and vital pages.
In one instance, It Is reported, "a
pages Of an important tax record have
been removed and the book from which
the sheets were taken shows the clean
cut Of knife where the sheets were
trimmed from the cloth binding. Over
charges and under-charges have been
revealed, taxes collected more than
once and many other Irregularities
found which viii be substantiated
when the auditors report 10 made
public.
In some instances property owned by
favored people has been skipped en-
tirely. It is alleged, and in others an
unauthorized reduction OF taxes has
been made. Disclosures Of this nature
show a range OF from 10 per cent to
90 per cent reduction Of the original
amount Of the taxes shown on tax rolls.

with the completion Of the audit and
1 the filing Of the report on the Smith
term, the examiners have started on a
check Of the term of r. e. Wonnacott,
1911-12; c. e. Acton, 1913-14, and F. e.
Wonnacott's second term, 1915.
| In order to hold Iames w. Smith

great constancy in the Jerome Camp proper. Further south. at the Black Hills property. and al the Copper Chief mine. there are considerable areas where the strike is almost east and west, duetno doubt to local crumplng and shearing in that direction. and the ore bodies at these properties follow this east and west strike. For these reasons all prospecting should be done as much as possible by running long drifts along the strike of the schists and numerous cross cuts therefrom at right angle to these drifts.
 Acid dikes encountered underground should be followed as they have been found in practice to lead to ore bodies.
 Ores
 The ores of the district are massive copper pvrites (chaicopyrite) peacocK copper tbornite.) and copper glance (ehalcocite.) associated with iron py- rites. Carbonates and oxides of cop per ure almost totally absent.
 The primary (originaD ores are the copper and iron pyrites.
 The peacock copper proDably is. and the copper glance certainly is. or secondary origin.
 They occur in huge bodies and the percentage of primary chalcopyrite is so high that these ores form probably the highest grade large copper deposits in the world.

A company composed of a number of Arizona s most prominent business men and capitalists. including Mayor J. j.. Gain, Eugene NJ. Barron. Edison 1hacker, Ii. w. Thacker ana R.

Enough money has already been subscribed to place the com ranv on a substantial starting basis and in addition to this limited number of organization interests arc heing offered at 15 cents per interest.
 IL is now planned to incorporate the Squaw Peak Copper X Mining Co, with q capitalization of two rallion dollars, divided into equal shares of one dollar each.
 Much interest is being taken in the holdings of the company which are the claims of L. NJ. Olden interests which were located over thirty years ago, but have remained in cbscurity like other Squaw Peak properties. several specimens of ore have been taken from the prospects on the com pany's property, which show an eX- ceptionally large percentage of cop per per ton.

The storekeepers are uti- lizing their counters and the business men their desks. these crowded days, and four and five in a room is the rule at the hotels. the first man to bed after dinner getting the choice.
