CARELESS FIRES A CRIME

Some cities in this country
have taken the advanced GROUND d
of adopting ordinances !ixing
criminal responsibility uron per
sons who carelessly cause fires.
Tho carlese fire is just as much
of a social crime as a neglect of
sanitation. 1t visits its loss upon
the just and the unjust.
The fire hazard in America 10
meny times greater than it
should be, and much greater
than in any European country.
This is due largely to the care.
lsssness OF tho psDpIe with re-
spect to prevention. A MAORI.
ty of forest fires are started by
beopls who leave live embers
behind them to be- famed into
blaze by the Wind. The sccu-
mutation of rubbish in the cities,
and the ca 'eless use Of matches
anc cigarettes, account for a
great numoer of city fires. A
law which would make a man
both civilly and eriminally liable
for starting of a careless fire
would probable work wonders in
reducing the etdless loss.
II is not alone for the sake of
a saving in rates that fires
should be prevented. The social
loss from fires represents a di-
rect reduction of the nation al
wealth. 1t adds to the cest Of
living and reduces the capacity
for production. One mill burn

Of the mill, but also the loss
of all the goods it might
have Manufactured had it
not burned, No ons escapes the
penalty imposed by criminal

TAX BOARD AT PHOENIX HOLDS

 Companies

PHOENIX, Aug. 2. - The state tax commission at it's first session today as state board of equalization, held hearings on protests against the as sessed valuations for tax purposes placed on the properties of the Ari- Zona and New Mexico railroad com pany, the Arizona Copper company, and the Postal Telegraph company. The complaint of the Copper Sulphide company was also set for hearing but no one appeared in the company's behalf.
 The Arizona and New Mexico Rail- road company was represented by George Drysdale, it's secretary. The railroad had been assessed at S5O,- 900 a mile. Mr. Drysdale set forth that while that might have been a fair assessment last year, the busi- ness of the company had been so re- duced in consequence of the falling off in mine production that such an assessment now would be unjust. He said transportation of mine products was the principal traffic.
