railroad men have watched the proceedings OF
the present session of congress with great inter
est since 1t first assembled. Latterly this inter-
est has been changing to impotence and dis
gust. The reason of this is the slow progress, or
rather the want OF progress. that has been made
toward the passage of the proposed amendments
to the interstate commerce act legaIizing pool
ing and giving the interstate commerce commits
zion the power to regulate pools, when formed,
and enforce agreements pertaining to them after
they have been once accepted by the roads par
ties thereto There now remain but five weeks
oil the life OF the present congress, and with the
press OF other business that remains 10 DC at
tended to in that time it is more than likely that
the interstate commerce &C. amendments viii
be lost in the shuttle.
III the meantime the roads are preparing to act
as Ii the desired legislation had already been Sc
cured The new presidents agreement provides
for the organization OF big tariff pool. and the
commissioners now in session have been charged
with the duty OF working on the details of that
pool. The roads claim that ii is only money
pools that are forbidden in the interstate COM
nleree act, and until the question is decided in
an authoritative manner Ill accordance with the
bill introduced by Congressman Anderson. they

The center Of population in the United
States is gradually moving westward.
Ten years ago the center as determined
by calculations Of the census office, was
eight miles southwest Of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Recent calculations show the center to
have crossed the Ohio line and now to be
in Indiana, not far from Greensburg.
AS to the success or failure of the ses-
sion, much depends upon the action of
the house of representatives during the
coming few days. Many excellent meas.
ures that have passed the council by
unanimous vote are now pending in the
house. They are measures in which the
people feel deep interest, and should
they be killed, as some threaten they may
to appease growing spirit Of petty re-
venge for fancied wrongs in the past, the
people will be made to understand Just
where the blame must rest.

SCHOOLS IN INCORPORATED TOWNS

SUdUULS In 1NUUhPUhAT6U TOWNS.
After all the howl the house of repre-
sentatives and its friends have made of
late respecting good school system, lis it
not a bit singular that that body should
have 80 mercilessly crucifed the council
bill providing for graded schools in in
corporated towns and cities? This was
very excellent measure, prepared by
Senator Perea in his usual careful, palms.
taking manner. Its provisions were
so just, fair and timely that the
measure met witt, aln,nst tho
unanimous approval OF the members of
the council. We trust sincerely that there
is no spite work at the bottom of the
treatment accorded this measure in the
house, for whatever may occur let it not
be said that petty spitefulness was al
lowed to be dragged in to cucumber and
harrass the efforts of the Republican
members Of the council to provide the
people Of New Mexico with a first.clsss,
modern school system.
