DELINQUENT TAX ROLL OF
 STATE NEARLY MILLION

Arizona's taxpayers who really pay are carrying one million dollar bur- den imposed upon them by the tax payers who do not pay, according to figures just submitted by the state tax commission to show that the de- linquent tax bill that has been accu- mulating during the last five years now amounts to $954, 4,557.16. Mari copa county is the worst offender, with burden amounting to $297,- O69.48, the statement shows.
 The figures represent the total de- linquency of state, county, city and town taxes, including the delinquents to the first installment of the 1919 taxes that was due on the first Mon day of last November, and the figures are computed from the date of Janu- ary 5, 1920.
 The state has an assessed valuation of 855,000,000, according to the com mission, and in 1919 it collected from all sources $13,56S, ,59287 as the amount budgeted, to handle the state expenses.
 Out of whatever amount was delin- quent in 1915, the sum of 56,123 .62 remains unpaid, or did on January 5, 1920. The unpaid remainder from 1916 amounted last month to $74,5S1.78. The 1917 balance stood at $127 ,923.38. Of the 1918 tax bill there remained unpaid $314,756.64. The first install ment for 1919, still unpaid, amounted to $3S1 ,171.74, making a delinquency burden of almost $1,000,000 for the five-year period.
 The tabulated figures show gen. eral tendency toward better collec- tions in the mining counties, as against the agricultural counties, it was said. Santa Cruz county had total delin- quency for the five-year period amounting to $113,43945, which is explained largely by the fact that the ownership of tract there known as the "Baca Float" had been in dispute and as the ownership recently was de- cided in the courts it is expected that the tax delinquency thereon would be settled soon.

WASHINGTON'S
 FAREWELL
(Washington was born 188 years ago,
 February 22,)

Washington was born 188 years ago,
 February 22.)
 Against the insidious wiles of for eign influence q conjure you to be- lieve me, fellow citizens) the jealousy of free people ought to be constant ly awake, since history and experi- ence prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of re- publican government. But that jeal- ousy, to be useful, must be impartial, else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive par tiality for one foreign nation and ex- cessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are i- able to become suspected and odious, while it's tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people to surrender their interests.
 "The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations, is in ex- tending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political con- nection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.
 Europe has set of primary in- terests which to us have none or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially fnraie<v, to fore, it must be unwise in us to impli- cate ourselves, by artificial lies, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics or the ordinary combinations and col lisions of her friendships or enmities.
 Our detached and distinct situa- tion invites and enables us to pursue a different course. If we remain one people, under an efficient government, the period is not far off when we may defy material injury from external annoyance; when we may take such an attitude as will cause the neutrality we may at any time resolve upon to be scrupulously respected; when bel ligerent nations, under the impossi- bility of making acquisitions upon us, will not lightly hazard the giving us provocation; when we may choose peace or war as our interest, guided by justice, shall counsel.
 "Why forego the advantages of so peculiar situation? Why quit our own to stand upon foreign ground ? Why, by intervening our destiny with that of any part of Europe, en- tangle our peace and prosperity in the coils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor or caprice?
 "It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any DOT ton of the foreign world; so far, l mean, as we are now at liberty to do it; for let me not be understood as ca pablo of patronizing infidelity to ex- isting engagements. From George Washington's Farewell Address.

EIGHT GALLONS OF RUM
 REMOVED TO PRESCOTT

Sheriff Warren Davis left Thurs day for Prescott with his car loaded to the guards with rum of superior degree of potency that was captured the night before by Deputy Sheriff Fred Hawkins at the Ross place near Boynton Pass.
 There were eight gallons of the il- licit booze and Justice of the Peace Hughes declares that he is mighty glad to be rid of it as the perfume was not attracting any business to his office, even if a few of the official thirsty ones Of the camp did come around to sniff eagerly and to drool little as the rummy odors awakened recollec- ton of the good old days now gone beyond recall.
 The still captured was rather in geniously made of a large oil can with tin tubing soldered into the top and a well made worm worked into the pip ing, which is said to be of block tin A large package of yeast was also found on the premises as well as two barrels of black-strap molasses. The top of a second still was found, but there was no trace of the body of the appliance.
 The defendant, N. D. Ross, has been a resident of this section for more than thirty years and is said to be highly connected in the state.-Jer- ome News.

Assistant County Attorney Geo. w. Harben tells this Nigger watermelon story:
 "In the front window of store down in little town in Georgia where l lived there was gigantic water melon displayed. It was more than two feet through the smallest way. A prominent politician from another county, with my father and lot of others were standing in front of the store, talking. The politician noticed that melon. I'll bet no one nigger could eat that melon in ten minutes,' he said.
 "I don't know my father said, but I think l have a nigger who can.'
 "'I'll bet $15 that no nigger can eat that melon in ten mjnutes,' the politician insisted.
 Father walked around to the side of the store and called Jim, lanky colored man who was pulling fodder for him in the field next to the store.
 'Jim,' father said, can you eat that watermelon in that window in ten minutes
 "'Dunno, sah,' Jim said. If yo' gib me few minutes I'll tell yo' fo' sho.' Father agreed, and Jim dis appeared. In about fifteen minutes he was back.
 "'All right, sah,' he said. I kin eat dat melon in ten minutes
 "The money was put up by both sides, Jim started in and in just eight minutes the melon was picked clean.
 ''The politician then asked Jim:
 "Why did you want time to decide whether you could eat that melon in cen minutes?
 "'Well, yo' see, boss, Jim explain ed T had mother melon jes' bout dat size in de grass back dar. So went an eat dat melon in sebben minutes. Den 1 knowed I could eat dis one in less dan ten minutes easy.'"
 Now that Lorren w. Cress has bought home he has decided it is no longer dignified for him to do some of the things he did formerly. Con- sequently, the other night he formal ly announced to his young son, Leigh ton, that he was plenty old enough now to bring in all the wood and get the milk. Hereafter, young man" he said, "those jobs belong entirely Ito you, and don't you expect your dad to do them"
 Leighton didn't offer any objection at the time, but we notice that his dad is still carrying the wood and milk.
 Once--so the story goes-when Jimmy Mitchell wanted to come back to Flagstaff from Williams on the train he just missed it. Up the track the train was pulling, and up the track after it went Jimmy, yelling:

 q had a dream the other night" says Bert White, "that l was with Jack Diamond down in Phoenix and he asked me would have drink. Thinks I, would duck swim; an seein' bot tie of whisky and some sugar and lemons on the sideboard, told him I didn't care if did take little. Shall we have it hot?' Jack asked, and l said, Yes Then he went into the kitchen to get some hot water and was gone so long I woke up. I've been distressed ever since because l didn't say I'd take it cold"

We have a store. and our customers called for Black Drauqht so often decided it must be good. so thought l would try it myself.
 "I began its use and found it just fitted my case. It neither griped nauseated me, was an easy laxative and not hard to take.
 had had headaches a great deal. no doubt from torpid liver. The Black-Draught would cure them. The best way find to take Black Draught is to take one or two good sized doses until the liver begins to act, then taper the doses to just pinch after meals.
 Tt will insure good digestion, do away with the gas or bad taste in the mouth, and is without doubt the best liver medicine in the market. I have found it so. I can recommend it to my friends, for I believe it will do them good"
 Most dealers carry it in stock.
