chimes during the summer take their
lives in their hands, said one agent
the proportion of deaths and accidents
is pretty we'll divided throughout the
year."

more taxes to pay the running eX-
penSes. 1t is also evident that we
are collecting more than we need.
What the taxpayers of the State
must do, is to not only look into the
affairs which concern them most,
but see to it that men are selected
to go to the legislature, who will
correct the laws which provide for
such an expensive government, and
that only men of responsibility,
naturally taxpayers, have to do with
appropriations and the handling of
public funds.
Men who succeed in private life
naturally are most likely to make
good in public office. TAXPAYERS
should get to thinking and solve
this tax problem at the polls Be
not influenced by sentiment, but
cold facts. Figures don't lie, the
politician said. So say |.

Resources from Which to Col
lect Taxes

The greater the taxpaying popu-
lation within the State, the lighter
will be the burden upon the indiVld-
uaI taxpayers. We have tax vaIu
alton for 1915 of $422, 423, All 81, as
against SAT, 267, 1893 II in l9l4-a
gain of SIS, l56, 01S IS, an increase
in one year of nearly 10 cents on
the 500 valuation. That means
that every taxpayer will have to
pay one. fifth more in 1915 than he
did in 1914. The State tax rate was
"a Ia cents on the 500 in 1914, as
against 81 cents in l9l5-an in
crease of 9 | 2 cents.
Our mining industry 1918 assess
ment valuation is $l2l, 225, S33 "a,
and on improvements and machinery
$50, 36l ,O82.75. Railroads have a
very high assessed valuation. Take,
for instance, in Graham county, the
Arizona Eastern Railroad pays over
