valuation of property for taxable pur- poses of 336, per cent their greatest claim is reduction of 5S per cent in the rate.
 Of course the average tax payer is more or less interested in the rate of taxation and a prospective invest or, either in business or in agricul- tural pursuits, will investigate that feature of governmental affairs, but the more important question is as to the total amount of taxes one is pay ing on his property.
 With a tax rate of from four to five per cent under territorial rule the av- craze property was in reality paying less to maintain the state, county and city governments than they are now with & very less rate.
 MT. Olney believes that govern ment is cos ting too much. He is not alone in his belief. Business men and farmers believe the same thing and are rallying to his support for the purpose of securing if possible a reduction of this excessive cost, by the practice of just ordinary business economy.
 In his candidacy he makes no at tempt to cater to any single class of people or interests, but proposes to treat all with equal fairness.
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1916-08-11

The Mascott and Western railroad represented by c. O. Anderson, as- sistant general counsel, appeared be- fore the board, in the afternoon, to protest against the valuation placed on the roads property for the year 1916. This valuation was made by the tax commission Anderson filed a brief, asking that the tax be reduced, but the board denied it.
 Anderson also inquired into the methods used at arriving at the valu-, ation placed on the company's tele- phone equipment The board ex- plained the method, which appeared to be satisfactory to MT. Anderson.
 At ten o'clock this morning, the board will hear the complaint Lof the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company.
 At two in the afternoon, the board of supervisors of Maricopa county will appear before the board in hearing, which will have a bearing on the ac- tion the state board of equalization, will take on recommendations made by the tax conference at it's recent meetings in Prescott, in regard to the 20 per cent reduction made on all IT, rigated lands, town and city lots in Maricopa county.

BOARD HEARS
 TAX COMPLAINTS

PHOENIX, Aug. S.-The State Tax Commission yesterday started it's session as the state board of equali- zation. During these sessions, which will last for eight days, the board will hear complaints which owners of property have to make in regard to the assessed values. They will also certify to the tax levy before next Monday.
 Yesterday M. H. Mclean, general manager of the Detroit Copper com pany of Arizona, accompanied by W. P. Weller, auditor of the same com pany, appeared before the board, in regard to the assessment levied against their properties.
 The Detroit people desired to pro- test against the assessment levied on their patented claims, which are not a part or contiguous to their produc- ing mines. The valuation made by the county assessor and capitalized by the county board of equalization, they considered altogether too high. The board took the protest under consider ation.
 They also protested on the valua- tion placed on their productive mines, by the tax commission. The commits sion denied the petition placed before them in this matter.

SOME OF HUNTS CLAIMS

PHOENIX, Ariz., Aug. 9,-The single claim is urged by Governor Hunts friends that he deserves a reelection for a fourth term, on the grounds that HE has been instrumental in se- curing a large raise in the valuation of the mining properties of the state, for the purpose of taxation, and that George A. Olney represents the cop per companies and if elected would release them from the payment of their just proportion of taxes.
 They studiously avoid any mention of the fact that MT. Olney was one of the very first officials in Arizona who not only worked to secure a raise in the assessed valuation of the properties of the mining con- panies of the then territory, but also advocated a raise in the valuation of the properties of the railroad con- panies as well as for the purpose of taxation.
 Neither do they make any mention of the further fact that under the ad- of Governor Hunt the assessed value of properties of all kinds have been raised-not in pro portion of the mining companies, 1t is true, but raised to such an extent that in many instances they are pay ing double or more taxes than prior to his going into office, in spite of the added revenues received from the other sources.
 They cajole the tax payer by saying that his rate of taxation has been greatly reduced and this may be a fact. The rate may be reduced. BUT the total amount does not show any decrease. With an increase in the

MAR|COPA COUNTY SHOULD PAY ITS
 SHARE TAXES
A Twenty Percent Reduction of Real Estate Assessment Condemned.

DOUGLAS, Aug. 8.-J. M. Sparks, chairman of the board of supervisors, Walter Thomas, deputy county as- sessor and A. H. Krager, clerk of the board of this county, have returned from Prescott where they went last week to attend the annual meeting of the taxing officials of the state, in cluding supervisors, assessors and clerks. This meeting lasted five days and was one of the most interesting ever held in the state Mr. Sparks and his colleagues extended an invi- tation to the convention to meet next 3O-. I Douglas, but under a previous promise it will be held at Nogales. The members of the tax commission were also present and quite a num- Der O. candidates also lowered around during the convention.
 One of the interesting fatures of the convention was the considera- tion of the action of the board of supervisors of Maricopa county when it reduced the assessment of all the

Supreme Court Affirms Death Sen
 tence of Cold Flooded Murderer.

PHOENIX, Aug. s.-On September 15 Robert Talley, under sentence of death at Florence must pay the su- preme penalty for the murder of Jesse Danner in Miami in 1913. The su- preme court this afternoon denied a rehearing of the case and set the date of execution of the condemned man for that date.
 The murder of Jesse Danner by Tal- ley was one of the most cold blooded crimes committed in the history of Miami. Danner was the father of a girl with whom Talley was in love. The attentions of Talley to his daugh- ter was discouraged by Danner and he sent the girl to Fl Paso in order to remove her from Talley's influence.
 The night of the shooting, Talley learned that his former sweetheart had been married the day previous in Ell Paso. Returning to his home Tal- ley procured his gun, and, meeting Danner in front of the postoffice. pumped his body full of lead, following a short strugge between the men. Death was instantaneous. Danner left a wife and several small children de- pendant upon him.
 Talley was tried and convicted in the Gila county courts following which he has since been under sen tence of death at Florence.
 Talley's last hope is now to appeal to the state board of pardons and paroles for communication of sentence. Mrs. J. M. Talley, mother of the con- demned man, appeared unofficially be- fore that body last week in an ap- peal for her son.

real estate, including city and town lots, in Maricopa county 20 per cent from the amount fixed by the county assessor. This action was opposed by he county assessor and by "A of the 2S taxing officials attending the meeting at Prescott, who after a long discussion in which Chairman Sparks lead against the action reducing the Maricopa assessment, recommended that the state tax commission sustain the assessor and thus compel the real estate owners of the Salt River valley to pay their just share of the burden of the state government. The fight over the matter showed the entire state was opposed to the attempted reduction of the assessment.
 Records of the county were pro- duced to show that recent sales of property fully Justified the action of the assessor in fixing the values on the lands and city real estate of Mari copa county.
 The data submitted to the meeting in Prescott were very interesting and one feature was the showing of growth of the Arizona cities and towns The increase of the value of improvements on city and town prop erty was shown as follows:
