BENSON' IS AFTER
THE COUNTY SEAT.
That tti'e county scat of Cochise
will not bo without bidders is shown
from tho fact that 'Benson is the
latest to declare its aspirations for
the prize. In a kindly and' graceful
tribute to' Tombstone the Press- Caste
Benson's castor into the arena. lien
son is unwilling to rob poor Tomb
stone but if the battle ts forced will
just simply have to step In and take
the court house so as to stop all the
squabbling. Incidentally the- Press
pays its compliments- to the Douglas
ites who' are so actively advocating
the claims of the Smelter City.
This is the apology to Tombstone
and the challenge to the field that
Benson offers:
The Benson Press does- not favor
removal of the court houw from pres
ent location at Tombstone, nor does
any other paper or person who Is not
actuated by mercenary cravings.
. "We would" not rob the historic old
camp of anything conducing to Its
welfare while Oie location Is an ideal
one: public buildings are in excellent
preservation and If would be foolish
and unjust to say the least, to burden
the taxpayers by such an imposition
as is glaringly souht by the two ele
lu'ents on the border of the Republic
of Old Mexico.
"But when the battle begins to rage,
and when Mr. J. X Gained goes forth
to win his victory, he will find north
ern Cochise county a solid and Im
pregnable phalanx, and of whose hon
or and Integrity there can be no
doubt: such men will favor Benson
to the exclusion of a very small ring
who ivuuid make enormous profits
wrung from the coffers ot miners,
farmers, cattlemen-, and others. When
the contest Is pulled off. Benson will
occupy a prominent position in the
race and come out winner in the
great county marathon."

different methods of assessment must

the fluctuating price ot Mocks in the

the agricultural interests have all the
best of it under the recently passed
taxation measure. It will take time

MINE TAX LAW
IS EXPERIMENTAL.

themselves. It admits that tho assess

It mast' be admitted that the rten
that has been adopted 13 merely ex
perimental. It says thaJn some in.
ttaHCee valuations have been quad
rupled. It continues that ot from six
to ten mines that might bfe'mentloned
not one of them could be purchased
for the assees&d valuation.
' When thS figures are given out it
will be found that the assessed val
uation of Cochise county has been'
' more than trebled. We doabt vert

uates that producing mines should b9
assessed" at their asking price but if
it were suggested that the lands that
are being held in Maricopa county,
especially in tke Salt River vatlej

President Wilson Is now proving
himself to be every whit as strong
as Col. Roosevelt, but his strength is
of another kind. He was asked re

"I have taken my stand with the

Enough said. I am not looking for

ON SAVINGS
System In Saving
t
A prominent editor writes:
"In regard to the saving of money there is no better
course than the systmatic putting away every week of
the amount fixed upon, whether it be cents or dollars.
This soon becomes an established custom that its moral
effect is as gratifying as the gradual growth of the fund
that is one day to mean so much."
This is good advice. We believe emphatically in
system in saving and. we know that the best possible
aid to systematic thrift isa savings account.
You can start one with us with one dollar and we
pay 4 per cent interest per annum, compounded every
six months.
