PICTURE FRAMING See Drayton at GRAVES' INDIAN SHOP SQUARE DEAL FOR MINES (Continued from Page One) L. S. Thompson spoke along the Isarae line, and told of the importance , of the mines to the prosperity of ! Phoenix and the Salt River Valley. I "The mines of Arizona are the greatest asset the Salt River valley j has, with the single exception of the j Roosevelt dam," declared Dr. R. AV. i Craig, who made a strong plea for a square deal for the mining interests and a fair tax on mining properties. He pointed out the fact that the citi zens of Maricopa county not only have no resentment or prejudice against the mining interests, but are anxious to see that they are assisted in every legitimate way in developing the statei's resources. John L. Irvine pledged his support to any move which had for its object the bring ing about of a better understanding, and a fairer division of taxation. Co-operation based on justice to all interests, and a solution of the problem that would not serve the special interest of any one, but would give a square deal to all the people of Arizona was urged by Dwight B. Heard, the next speaker. Mr. Heard presented figures showing the propor tion of taxes paid by the mining companies during the past, and out lined the provisions of the special mine tax law which was introduced at the regular session of the legisla ture. "If that bill had been handled with good judgment, and if the men who introduced it had been willing to make an amendment providing for a larger multiple of the net production, I believe its chances of adoption would have been greater. But this problem is not one to be solved in the light of any special interest, but for the larger interests of the people of Arizona." R. L. Balke, who said he had grown old waiting for a main line to be built through Phoenix, told of his in terest in that project, and of its im portance to this section. He empha sized the fact that the time had come to act, and pledged the first $200 to ward a bonus for the building of a main line. His remarks, as those of the speakers who preceded him, were heartily applauded.- Sid Henry said it was natural for all to think that taxes were high, but that he had supposed everybody was getting a square deal. He had been surprised, he said, to learn that the mining interests thought otherwise, j and upon investigation he had come to the conclusion that they were jus tified in this stand. The people of Maricopa county, he declared, wanted to see that they had a square deal, and he called for the reading of the resolution, which was then put and adopted unanimously. Vic Hanny, the next speaker, told of the importance of the mines to the merchants of the Salt River valley, and brought out the fact that capital, like trade, goes where it is well treated and stays where it gets a fair opportunity. W. T. Smith, endorsed the remarks of the preceding speakers, and told of the reasons for a special tax law for mines, and said that attempts to estimate the value on the basis of other property were in effect taxing the imagination of the men who had put their money into the property. J. C. Adams told of the conference a few days ago on the main line ques tion, and pledged his hearty support to any movement which had for its object making Phoenix bigger and better. He referred briefly to the as sessment of the Ray short line, and said that while not one word had NEW DENTIST There was a baby boy born to Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Belt Sunday.

The meeting he declared had been called by business men and taxpayers, - who realized the import ance of the mining interests, and what they were doing for Arizona. In the course of his remarks he referred to the crisis that confronted the citi zens of Phoenix last fall, and pointed out that it was mining men who come to their aid and reorganized the Val ley bank. He presented a resolution calling for the organization of a tax payers' league which was adopted by a unanimous vote. ' Representatives McClain, and Good win, and F. E. Rich were also called on for remarks, and responded briefly. The Resolutions The( rollowing resolutions were adopted unanimously: "Relieving it is for the best inter ests of the tax payers and citizens of Arizona to have some specific mea sure in which to assess the mining property of the state, therefore "Be it resolved that we the tax payers and citizens of Phoenix and Maricopa county in meeting assembled respectfully urge and request the members of the legislature represent ing Maricopa county to use their best effjrts to have the governor of Ari zona include in his forthcoming call a mine tax bill." Your committee recommends the organization of a Maricopa County Tax Payers' league" to which all the tax payers of Maricopa county shall be eligible for membership. Member ship fee shall be one dollar and one per cent of all tax paid in excess of $100 per year. This fee shall be paid annually in advance, excepting in the case of members whose annual dues shall exceed $20, such members may have the privilege of paying the aforesaid fee semi-annually. We re commend the appointment of a com mittee to prepare a constitution and by-laws and to take of the securing of members. AVe recommend for this committee the following: Eugene Hackett, J. C. Adams. R. E. Moore, H. J. McClung, Frank Whit ten, S. W. Higley and Lon Harmon. Copies of the first resolution, asking members of the Maricopa delegation to work for yie inclusion of mine tax legislation in the governor's call, will be circulated in the city today. In addition to those in the hands of the committee, copies of the resolution may also be signed at the Adams hotel. o FINANCES AND MARKERS associated press dispatch NEW YORK. May 25. The most conspicuous feature of the market was the extreme apathy compared with the previous day and trading was dimin ished more than fifty per cent. It was plainly of a professional character there being absolute absence of public in quiry. Dealings were again limited to so-called war specialties, with the dif ference, that this group manifested more or less heaviness throughout. The opening prices were irregular and this tone was maintained with slight changes; until afternoon, when gradual recessions took place in all branches of the list. The movement began with an abrupt break in Reck Island, follow ing news from Washington that the fn terstate commerce soon would resume its investigation of the financial affairs of the system. Final prices showed net losses of from 1 to 2 points in a num ber of issues, including I'nited States Steel, Reading and St. Paul. In the early operations such shares as Repub lic Steel common and preferred, pressed steel car, American Can, and some cop pers and motors made gains of from 1 to 3 roints. Revival of the Mexican situation and the possibility of an ex tra session were among the adverse home conditions. Total sales amount ed to 264,000 shares. Bonds were ir regular, with weakness in Rock Island and Wabash. Total sales represented a par value of $1,892,000. United States coupon 4's advanced 1 per cent, and Panama coupons 3's on call.
