MOUNTAIN LIONS ARE
KILLING MANY CATTLE

w. w. Wilkins, stock man of Do
wey, who has 10000 head of sheep
grazing in the lower Mingus mountain
country, lost 100 head Hast year
through depredations of predatory
animals, mostly mountain lions, and
is beginning to lose again already this
year, he reported to the Prescott for
est service officials.
The 100 head reported killed repre-
sent Wilkins losses alone, not includ-
those of other Yavapai cattle and
sheep raisers in lion and coyote in
tested districts.
The forest service is unable to rem
der anything like an approximate ac-
count of the number Of head of stock,
sheep, cattle and horses killed annual
ly by these animals, for the reason
that the only figures it is able to Sc
cure are those of known killings. How
many more head are killed and never
found, it is impossible to check up.
Districts infested by mountain
lions and coyotes in Yavapai county
are the area from the lower Mingus
country to the Cherry Creek district,
and the Bloody Basin and New River
sections, where many colts are re-
ported killed annually.
Ramsey Patterson, government
hunter, is now located on the Fred
Young ranch in Yaeger canyon, and
is preparing to get the lions and coy
otes that are active among sheep at
the head of Ash Greek and the lower

JOHN R. NORTON IS DEAD;
NOTED CITIZEN OF VALLEY

John r. Norton, Arizona pioneer
and for years a predominant figure
in Phoenix business and civic circles
died at his home in 351 West Portland
street Monday afternoon, following an
acute attack of heart disease. He was
SO years old and had been a resident
of the state since 1881. His death
was entirely unexpected as he ap-
parently was in excellent health.
The death of Mr.. Norton brings to
close a career marked by big
achievements and closely connected
with the development of Arizona.
While extensive ranching and cattle
interests occupied the greater portion
Of his time he was the leading spirit
in several constructive movements in
this and other parts of the state.
Among them was the Taxpayers
Economy league, formed to work for
a general reduction of taxes. He was
instrumental in initiating this organ
ization and served as an executive Of

LAND DEPT. STATEMENT
SHOWS RECEIPTS GREATER
THAN IN TWO YEARS

Total receipts of the Arizona state
land department for the month OF
January, 1923, were the largest for
any month during the past two years,
according to the monthly statement
for January issued by Rudolph Kuch-
ler, state land commissioner. The re-
port shows the total net receipts to
be $73,633.54 for the month. The
net receipts for January, 1922, were
$51, ,722.52.
One reason for the large increase
in the receipts of the department Mr..
Kuchler said, was the fact that a
large number of five-year leases ex-
pired on December 81, 1922, and were
renewed by the department. The rem
tails on these leases, he said, were
paid promptly.
This is an indication that the cat
tie industry of the state is improving,
Mr.. Kuchler said, as most of the
leases were renewed by cattlemen who
lease the lands for grazing purposes,
and who paid for their renewals in
cash. During the past two years,
Mr.. Kuchler stated between 1000 and
5000 leases have been issued by the
department

receipts of the department follows:

ATTORNEYS OF STATE
TO CHANGE TAX LAWS

The desirability of changing the
present law relating to the collection
OF delinquent taxes was the principal
| subject of discussion at the annual
meeting of the county attorneys of
the state, held in the office of John
w. Murphy, attorney general, in the
state capitol. With the exception of
three attorneys, all the county attor-
neys in the state were in attendance.
The main address Of the day was
given by John F. Ross, county attor
ney of Cochise county, whose subject
lection. Mr.. Ross used as the basis
Of his address and as an example of
the collection Of taxes under the pres
ent law, the copy of a tax suit filed
by him to collect taxes delinquent
and due in Cochise county.
The cost of printing the complaint
and the summons, Mr. Ross said, was
$4,000, and the expense of serving the
defendants brought the total cost up
to $4,000. There were more than
1900 defendants named in the suit,
he remarked, and he then exhibited
the copy of the complaint. 1t cover
ed 1899 pages of closely printed mat
ter. 1t would cost, he said, under
the present law, approximately one
half of the amount of the tax sought
to be recovered through the expense
of bringing the litigation, provided
the suit was successful in collection.
Otherwise the county stood loss. He
urged that the present law be simpli-
fled, the judiciary committees of both
houses of the legislature were present
during Mr.. Ross discussion.
The pardoning and paroling of
prisoners in the state also was dis
cussed by the attorneys. ALI were
of the opinion that the present meth
cd of paroles and pardons was much
too easy and that the matter should
be made more serious. Some Of the
attorneys voiced their approval Of Civ
ing more publicity to the application
of prisoner for parole or pardon.
Mr.. Ross was appointed as COM
mittee to write and present bill to
the legislature amending the law per-
tanning to real property for delinquent
taxes and to provide for summary
sale upon the tax becoming delinquent
and to give the owner specific time
in which to redeem the property. He
also was directed to present bill to
clarity the law as relating to the is
surance and sale of school district
bonds.
Gene S. Cunningham, county attor-
ney of Maricopa county, was appoint
ed to write and present bill enacting
a bastardy law to cure the defects
in the old law, which was declared un-
constitutional. He was directed to
make the new law civil procedure
instead of a criminal one, as under
the old law. Mr.. Cunningham also
was directed to prepare and present
bill amending the present divorce
law by providing a penalty for viola
tion of the law which prohibits remar-
riage until one year after the div
orce has been granted.
With the exception of H. Fl. Baker
of Yuma county, E. L. Spriggs of
Graham and Ross H. Blakely of Mo-
have county, all the county attorneys
of the state were present.

The order denies the application of

on the land to the board does not in

ASKS CONTRIBUTIONS
TO LENTEN OFFERING
Episcopal Church Board Issues Ap.
peal to Sunday School
Workers.

The board of religious education of
the Episcopal Church of the diocese
OF Washington Is issuing to Episcopal
clergymen and Sunday school work
ers an urgent appeal for increased
contributions to the annual chiIdren's
Lenten offering, which has become a
largo factor In the missionary re-
sources of the general church.
The treasurer of the National Coun-
Gil of the Episcopal Church has an
nounced that immediate retrenchment
In the expenses In the missionary field
must be adopted because of the fall
ing off of contributions during the
year 1922. In 1920 the church pro-
1ected the nationwide campaign.
which greatly stimulated offerings
for all purposes. Similar amounts
were pledged for 1921 and 1922. and. in
fact. the total receipts for 1921 were
greater than for the previous year.
Plans for 1929 and 1923 were based
on the expectation that these contrl-
buttons would be continued, but a
very considerable deficit was created
In 1922 by the failure of the dioceses
to pay their quotas. The diocese of
hand, but some dioceses ran as much
as $26, 900 behind, It Is stated
In this crisis, while appeals will be
made to the people of the church gen.
orally for increased donations, the
board Of religious education has de-
cided that the children's offering must
also be Increased. To this end mass
meeting for all the Episcopal Sunday
schools in the District and surround
ing counties will be held at Epiphany
Church Sunday afternoon, March IL.
at o'clock.
