STUDY 0F COUNTY TAX
 RATES DISCLOSE SOME INTERESTING FIGURES
Taxpayers Magazine Gives
 Some Statistical Data Re- garding The Collection and
 Expenditure Of All Money

Figures, as a rule, are not very in teresting to the ordinary reader. Long. detailed lists of statistical data re-
 ceive but scant attention from the casual reader who is after more in teresting matter; however, 1t is quite and taxation problems to pause for a time and contemplate the figures which tells a story far more eloquently than would nRny abstract statements of facts
 This is the first of a series of arti- cles which this magazine will publish and which have been prepared for the purpose of acquainting the taxpayers of the state, particularly with refer ence to counties. with the actual con ditions which have prevailed, compar- ative conditions, if you please, dur ing the past few years in Arizona with reference to its financial affairs. For the purpose of this particular article we will first take up the county of Maricopa. Maricopa county contains possibly one-third of the voting pop ulation of the state. Its values for the most part are embraced in agri- culture, livestock and real estate properties Mining values are not particular factor in the property val ues of this county. Within Maricopa county is embraced the great Salt River valley irrigation project with it's approximate 100000 acres of land un- der cultivation and with a consequent burden of some S13.0G0,0O0 to be paid for the construction of the irrigation project With this burden upon the people the question of the rate of tax ation, or to put it more forcibly the total amount of taxes to be paid, is of the greatest concern and importance. A farmer must be conservative. His land will produce Q certain amount, varying in it's efficiency in ratio with the intelligence displayed by the owner. However, there is a point be- yond which the producing ability of the land will not go. Consequently the money making or profit sharing feature of the land is absolutely de- termined by this particular point reached. Taxes must be paid and it is to the interest of the farmer that the cost to him of his proportion of bearing the expense of government shall be as low as consistent with public affairs properly managed.
 Yearly Comparison.
 For the information of those who are called upon to pay the taxes and [. who no doubt are comparing their tax burden this year with that as- sumed during past years, the follow ing comparative table of the various ! county rates for the six years imme- diately preceding the year 1916 is shown below:

NOW these are abstract ngureS that to the careless reader who does not delve into the truths as shown herein will probably not mean anything, but
 1t will not take an expert accountant to glean from these figures the follow
 ing simple facts which must speak eloquently to those who contemplate
 with concern the increasing burden of taxation within the state.
 It will be noted that in 1910 the total valuation of the county for tax numbers to S1S,OOO,0OO; that the as sessed valuation increased by leaps and bounds during the intervening years until in 1915 the assessed val uatiOn Of MaricOpa county amounted 10 approximately $74.000,O0O In oth- CT words, the total assessed valuation had increased four times. Now let us look at the rate. In 1910, the total state and county rate of Mariaopa county was S255 per hundred. and taxes were collected upon a valuation
 of :s1S.O00,000. In 1915, the above rate was SIP per hundred and taxes were collected. or in other words, this rate was applied. upon valuation of S74.000.0 coo. The rate decreased by approximately 1SO per cent, little more than having it cut in two. while the assessed valuation was increased , some 800 per cent This is a tremend- ous discrepancy and allowing that there has been natural growth and greater need for governmental activ- | ities the tremendous increase in val I nation and the comparatively low de I crease in the rate does not speak for | economy in any sense of the word.
 That the situation in Maricopa county is paralleled in other counties of the state is well shown by the fig ures relating to Cochise county. Refer to the table which follows and which has been compiled upon the same ba sis as that used in compiling the fig ures for Maricopa county. and the reader will be enabled to make some very interesting deductions.

 It was a hot day in camp yesterday and work was suspended until eve ming. The ice cream and pop wagons had more business than they could attend to. In some companies orders were given against drinking pop be- cause of the fear it would derange the stomachs of the men under their changed living conditions. The physi- clans have advised that the men shave in the evening instead of in the morning so that the dust won't irri- tate the skin on their faces so badly when out for drill. Some of the men did not know what it was to be in a dry state until they arrived here did not even know that Arizona had gone dry-and they missed their Pill sner from the list of refreshments. Arrangements are already being made to place electric lights and showers throughout the camp.
 The men feel the lack of fresh milk, and yesterady a milkman who drove through camp sold out in few minutes. A Jersey COW that strolled past the camp during the afternoon came near being robbed of her sup. ply.

 FOR NEW ONSLAUGHT
Frightful Carnage Told Of h Mighty Offensive At
 Battle Of Somme
(By Review Leased Wire.)

LONDON, July 7.-Reuter's core spondent at the Press Camp, British army in France, sends the following dispatch under date of July 6:
 "The forward movmeent fthe En- tente Allies has been checked, but certainly not arrested. The allied ar mics are busily consolidating their gains and drawing deep breath ir readiness for the next mighty thrust. In the meantime, they are battering. bombing and bayonetting the enemy by night and day with the most effec- tive results.
 "The fighting is reminiscent of the Ver6un battle, with the important dis tinction that the position is reversed and that the enemy has no such line upon line of fortified positions to re- treat upon in the face of our smashing blows, as the French have had, de lending their great fortress. At any moment the weakest link in the chain may snap and the broken ends fly apart.
 'The enemy is straining every nerve but is being attacked as never before. From the coast to the trenches Of northern France on-flowing streams Of khaki are pouring in a literal flood and I am unable to resist the contag- ious confidence of our army corre- spondent who says:
 Now that, it is possible to write with some fullness the story of Sat urday's attack. one almost shrinks from recording it, so terrible was the toll taken from the enemy.

GREAT PERSONNEL
 INCLUDED IN NEW
 JERSEY MILITIAMEN
Brokers, Bankers, Profession al Men And Others Of Like Standing Included In Mus ter Rolls Of N. J. Soldiers

Unique among the militia organiza-
 tions in the city is the Essex troop,
 officially known as Troops A and C of the New Jersey national guard, which arrived in camp yesterday, says the Douglas International. Big
 business men and heads of corpora tions in New York and Newark are serving in the troop side by side with men who work for wages or small salaries.
 See that sergeant receiving in structions from the captain?' re marked one of the men to visitor in camp yesterday. His life is insured for SITS, 1000, and he's worth S2,OOO,- 900, I suppose"
 Just then the sergeant left to drill a bunch of recruits in marching in column of twos.
 Capt R. P. Freeman of Troop A is a Wall street broker. Capt. Wilbour Kyle of Troop c is an exporter First Lieut. Walter R. Boyd of Troop A is head of a department of the New York Edison company. one of the largest corporations in New York The other officers are Second Lieut.. George E. Wilkenson of Troop C, First Lieut. Hobart B. Brown and Second Lieut. Lewis B. Ballantyne. The troop is 25 years old. It is made up of men in Newark, Orange and Montclair It has always been known as the Essex troop but was divided into two troops when a squadron of cayaltt: was. formed out of the New Jersey national guard. There are S6 men in Troop 4 and 94 in Troop C.
 The chaafcter of the men is re- vealed in the conversation about-camp. There is no rough talk. Orders are given and'received in the finished English of a drawing room. The men are as polite to each other as if they were playing polo or on a country club hunt. and incidentally there are some excellent polo players in the out { fit. It is interesting to watch the style that the son of a rich man who i drives his Pierce Arrow at home puts into the task of policing the kitchen. i There are no shower baths in camp, | and more than one of the volunteer troopers bather yesterday afternoon in a water bucket for the first time in his life Others journeyed to the i Y.

FCounty purposes. *sState

The readers attention is invited to the fact that in 1910 the total state and county tax in Cochise county amounted to $2.75. By 1915 this rate had been reduced to S1.07. The as sessed value table shows that when the S275 rate was in effect in 1910 that Cochise county valued it's tax able property at approximately S19.- 100000. In 1915, when the rate Of Sl.07 was in effect. which is more than One-third of the 1910 rate. the as sessed value of taxable property in this county was over S1O0.0O0, 900, or five times as great.
 Now the plain inquiry asserts itself to the axpayer: Why. if the assessed valuation has increased so tremend- ously, should not We at least have reasonable and consistent decrease in
