INCOME TAXPAYERS WILL BE. ASSISTED
 BY ADVISERS.

Office of Collector of Internal Reve- nue, Phoenix. Arizona, Jan. 31,- Collector Franklin has been informed by the Department at Washington that the Internal Revenue Bureau is arranging to furnish for the benefit of Income Taxpayers in every city and town in the country, free ad- visory service by trained collectors, agents, inspectors and deputies. At the offices of Collectors and their Deputies, and at other central points, free information and advice with re- spect to filing returns under the Revenue Bill may be had up to the final date for filing such returns.
 Banks. trust companies and similar responsible institutions have always co-operated in furnishing authentic In come Tax information, and have gen. erously offered to serve the govern ment and taxpayers in this respect again this year.
 It is the aim of the Bureau to bring it's agencies as close as possible to every person and to make valuable in every official form all necessary information regarding the require ments of the law. The Bureau well comes aid from every responsible agency in it's effort to enlighten the people on tax matters.
 Every taxpayer is assured that the action of the government will be based entirely on the tax laws and regulations and the facts in his case. No other influence is allowed to enter into Internal Revenue matters and the statement of any firm or indi- vidual that they are in a position to exert special influence with Internal Revenue offilcers is wholly without foundation. Painstaking and open minded consideration is given in every | case regardless of whether the tax payer appears in person or by at torney.

HON. LAMAR COBB WRITES
 OPEN LETTER ID LEGISLATURE (Continued from Page 1.)
(Continued from Page 1.)

Highway Engineer Commissioner no may concede to him. He should not be a member of the Highway Board, he should be subject to it's orders and superior authority, but he should have undivided authority as the working head of the Highway Departments constructive forces, which means all of them, for there is no business in Highway department except engineer ing business.
 Permit me to call your attention to the dangers of a Highway Commis- sion. The word itself Commission" conveys the thought of executive or administrative dutiesS as for instance Corporation Commission or Tax Con- mission, both properly executive or administrative bodies. The moment you affiX that word Commission" to a body of men they will almost in- variably assume active executive or administrative duties, no matter what may be their proper function nor for which they were created. If you will pardon the reference, tha t is what is the matter with the Commis- sion of State Institutions. Created to exercise supervisory authority, it's members took unto themselves active administrative duties to justify the employment of three, when there was work for only one.
 After personal contact and inti- mate association with many members of Highway Commissions of various states of the Union. north, east, south and west, have been reluctant ly forced to the conviction that High way Commissions are too often ere ated to furnish jobs for aspiring poli- ticians.
 With the exception of financing the work, and supervising the expendi lures, there is no business connected with highway construction that is net properly the function of the highway engineer I do not seek to eXalt the engineer to a position of supreme au thority. for he must at all times be subject to the orders and superior lauthority of the Highway Board hut I beseech you not to divide the au thority, be it little or great, you made concede him.
 Examples so numerous as to fill pages could be cited in support of my lconclusions. Suffice it to say that America stands foremost in magni tude of business enterprises and their efficient management. The scheme of organization for all is one and the same-a Board of Directors responsible to the stockholders. who name or appoint the Executive ol Administrative head to direct the af fairs of the corporation or association Let that be your guide and you can not fail to provide the proper state highway organization.
 Respectfully submitted, is''':'-- LAMAR COBB, State Engineer, March 1912 to June 1917 Jan., 1918.

MRS. D. c, HOBART CLAIMED BY DEATH

In the death of Mrs. Theodora Ho- bart, widow of D. c. Hobart, at Tucson, Ariz., last Friday, at the home of her son. Charles H. Ott, the Southwest lost one of it's best known and beloved pioneers. Mrs. Hobart was 72 years old last December. She had been in failing health for some years, but in the past year or so had shown some improvement. Her death was sudden, being caused by com plications brought on by rheumatism from which she had suffered for some years. The end came peacefully while Mrs. Hobart slept.
 Born in Las Cruces, Mrs. Hobart grew to young womanhood there. She was married to Captain Peter Ott, who in the early days was one of the principal freighters, operating between San Antonio. Tex, and Las Cruces, before the railroad came to this part of the country. He came to New Mexico with the California column. The Otis later moved to Silver City from Las Cruces, and for years they conducted the old Fremont House, in those days one of the famous hotels of this region situated at the corner of Main and Yankie streets. The flood of years ago partially destroyed the property and it was later razed.
 | Following the death of Captain lOtt, Mrs. Ott married D. c. Hobart another pioneer of this section. who died about ten years ago. For 32 years Mrs. Hobart made her home in Silver City, going to Clifton, Ariz. about 13 years ago to live with a daughter. Mrs. F. A. Sanders. How ever, she visited here frequently and spent several weeks here last sum Imer
 Mrs. Hobart was a remarkable woman in many ways. She had braved the dangers of early days when Indians were constantly on the warpath and had gone through al the hardships incident to life on the frontier in remote settlements Though for years she was afflicted with rheumatism, she bore her pair with wonderful fortitude, never com plaining. Hers was the most beauti fu1 character and priceless heritage to her children, to whom she was in tensely devoted.
 Surviving the deceased are si, children as follows: Mrs. J. E. liar vey. Silver City; Mrs. R. R. Copelen Ell Paso; Mrs. F. A. Sanders, Clifton Mrs. w. A. Leonard, Ely, New. Charles H. Ott, Tucson, Ariz. ant Edmond N. Hobart. Santa Fe. All O the children are here except Mrs Leonard, who will arrive today. Th, body was accompanied to Silver Cit, from Tucson by Mrs. Harvey, Mrs Sanders and Edmund Hobart, arriv ing Sunday afternoon.
 The funeral will be held at 33, o'clock this afternoon from the Cath ollie church. Final interment will b, in the Masonic cemetery.---SilveI lCity Independent.
