Arizona Assessors Face
 Many Problems This Year

Phoenix, Jan. 26.-How to make Arizona's income and outgo balance without boosting taxes to a painful altitude is affording state officials and county asses sors much concern, as was brought out at meeting of tke state tax commission and the county asses sors here just after the new state administration took office.
 The three great industries of Arizona, mining, agriculture and livestock raising, from which Ari- zona has derived most of it's tax revenues, have been suffering ex- treme depression. Other indus tries and businesses have also suffered in the general readjust- ment. Assessors, having been warned against reducing assess ments on any class of property and thereby placing heavier bur dens on the rest, are nevertheless faced with what appears to them the fact that many industrial holdings are worth less than last year, and therefore, will make strong bids for reduction of as- sessments. If general reductions were granted, the tax rate would have to be raised correspondingly or the state expenses reduced far below the 1920 fignre.
 State officials already have been pondering over the 1921 budget and trimming it down. They con- sider they have pruned it about as severely as possible, but the total is understood to be we'll over $4, ,00O, 900; in fact, to be larger than 1920 figures.

E. s. Clark Moves
to Phoenix

E. s. Clark, one time attorney general and one of the best known and most successful attorneys of the state has moved from Pres colt to Phoenix, after a residence in the former city of P years.
 Mr. Clark has been a member of tte Arizona bar since 1893, be- ing admitted from Coconino Co.
 He is a former newspaper man, ex-District Attorney of Yavapai county-and when it comes to inn portant cases is regarded as first choice among the many legal lights of Arizona. He is big favorite in Northern Arizona and especially in Navajo county. and judging from the support given him in the recent primary cleo tion he should have chosen Hol- brook instead of Phoenix to drop his anchor-but then attorneys and even newspaper men some times slip cog. -Holbrook News.

The bilious and dispeptic are constant sufferers and appeal to our sympathies. Many such, however. have been completely restored to health by the use of Chamberlain's Tablets. These tablets strengthen the stomach, invigorate the liver and improve the digestion. They also cause a gentle movement of the bowels. When you have any trouble with your stomach, give them a trial.

ON THE SKY LINE.
(BY DON MARIUS)

One living at an altitude of eight thousand feet should be able to free the mlnd of the sordid cares of life and let it play among the stars.
 Our visions and dreams tinged with the mystic things of the yet unknowable lead us far. and wide, until the demands of the stomach or a drop in the temperature brings us up with jolt.
 But. after all, what is more wonderful than the process of digestion by which our food is transmitted into rich red blood and sent coursing to the brain to enable us to renew it's flights above the sky line.
 Only a very short time ago we knew as little about our. circula- tion and digestion as we do today about the cranberry crop on Mars.
 However. viewed from the sky line, things look encouraging.
 A goodly portion of mankind has thrown off the "Old man of the sea" has crawled from under the incubus of the triple demands, fear and dread and superstition and are giving rein to the mind in its search for the infinite.
 God ties no strings to a mans mlnd as long as he uses it to his own good and to the advancement of his fellow man.
 We use the word God in a re- lative sense, for if we look up the etymology of the word we will find it derived from good. We have personifed the principle ''good" and called it God.
 So we use the expressions, Mother Nature" "The Great Creative Force" and God inter- changably, all meaning the same thing.
 Why split hairs over a name?
 It is well once in a while to for get the petty cares, that would engulf us if we let them, and take an inventory of our mental, yea spiritual, store house.
 Again, it is we'll enough to bear in mind that we can not place a dolIal and cent estimate on our mental equipment.
 No man with a liberal educa- cation would exchange it for the worlds gold.
 A wlse man provides for the future but if in doing so he neg lects his mind and his soul he be- comes a pauper indeed.
 Every human being is entitled to sufficient food, clothing and shelter provided he has exercised due diligence to secure them.
 There is no excuse tor stacker even in times of peace.
 But the manwho piles up wealth by exploiting his neighbor is a thief.
 He may not violate any statute law but he does violate a divine law and thus makes of himself a spiritual pauper tho he rolls in wealth.
 Everyone is familiar with the habits of the honey bee. With due diligence they gather their store while the getting is good. Bees have been known to rob an- other hive but only when starVa-
