Says Measure Suspending Mine Assessments Should Be Opposed

[ justice of the law, but 1t Is interest ing to observe the results.
 There came a great demand for all metals and prospecting increased. There was money available for pros- poets and those with good property found more buyers than in previous years, In other words. the man with good property was better off during the war than before, and he was ex- empt from taxation
 The natural result of this exemp- tion was to acquire the largest area possible, and men who thought four to ten claims sufficient. increased their holdings in many cases to 50 and 75, representing 1000 to 1,500 &C., res, without taxation.
 Those men who were unable to sell let their property go: failed to keep up monuments and improvements, so that at this time it is impossible f0r prospectors now in the field to tell whether a piece of ground is aban- doned or is being held under the ex- emption law. This feature alone Is causing many conflicts and disputes
 Outside corporations and individ- uals are holding ground in the state without taxation and preventing le- gitimate prospectors from entering and developing these areas.
 Discussion of Present Bill.
 The Bursum bill now proposes to exempt on mining claims until 1923.
 This annuls an expenditure of some millions of dollars a year for development of Arizona
 It exempts one class from taxa tion but does not exempt patented claims, homesteads or farms, and is, therefore, only class legislation.
 It allows withholding of areas which might be developed to pro- vide work for prospectors and others.
 It allows corporations who usually employ labor for the work to sus- pend all work at a time when work is greatly needed
 It handicaps legitimate prospect ors and involves titles to many claims
 Most mining men and prospectors oppose this bill. It favors those seek ing special privilege to the real det- riment of the mining interests of the state and the prospectors themselves
 Arizona is vita1ly interested and should express it's opposition to the passage of the Bursum bill.

Declaring that the Bursum bill now in the United States senate, which suspends assessment work on un- patented mining claims until 1928, should be opposed by the people of Arizona who, he says. have vital interest in the bill. F. G. Salisbury, mining engineer of Phoenix, has, at the request of the Phoenix chamber of commerce, given his views of the matter. His communication is as follows.
 A bill has been introduced in the United States senate by Senator Bur son of New Mexico. suspending as- sessment work on unpatented min ing claims until 1923. As this is a matter of great importance to Ariz- cna- it is well to turn on the spot light and see how 1t affects us.
 To understand the situation clearly, the meaning and object of assessment work must be explained. Under min ing laws there are two classes of ownership:
 First: Patented mining land which is ground on which mineral has been actually proven of value by spec flied amount of useful work The owner is given title and holds it in fee as any farm land Is held, so long as he pays taxes
 Second: Unpatented claims or land. This is open government land on which the prospective owner thinks or hopes there is mineral suf- ffcient to. be profitable. As profit able mineral is not shown, the law refuses permanent title or patent which would remove it from use for farming or stock raising. The law x-lx 1aVfQS d fixed tax of $100 a year on each claim of 20 acres or less. based on flat rate of $5 an acre. On account of the uncertainty and hazards of mining. and to force actual develop ment of the property, the cash tax is remitted to the prospective own CT, with the specific requirement. that it be expended in actual work on the property. This work is known as assessment work and is simply the remitted government tax
 To appreciate the force of this law. assume there are 50,000 unpat- ented claims in Arizona The gov- sernment taxes this land $5,000,000 a year and turns 1t back to develop the property and incidentally the state.
 As the tax may be paid by days labor, the poor prospector may hold land as well as the ricneSl GIL izen- By doing 20 days work year on each claim without any supplies, or much less time If he uses powder or supplies. the title is protected. In actual operation, prOspector usu- ally holds title with about one third of the above work
 Tax Exemption
 When war was declared. 1t was shown that many of the poorer pros- pectors or claim owners would lose 1ll their rights if called to the col- ors. and also that those at home could be used in more useful war work. A law was passed exempting these claims from taxation, but not exempting patented claims, Farm land or homesteads This law was later amended giving until July l, 1921, for complying with tax provis- tons for the year 1920.
 There is no need to discuss the

 The new Seagraves triple com bination pump, hose cart and hook and ladder probably will be quar- tered at either No. or No. 3 station house. Other apparatus will be dis tributed equally among the three out lying department.
