Land Lost by q Treaty.

The wording of the treaty by which
Arizona was ceded to the United States
by Mexico was loosely drawn, otherwise
we would have enjoyed the distinction
of having deep water harbor. The
line, which leaves Nogales and makes
an angle at that point by taking a more
northerly route until it reaches the Col
aorado river, should have kept on a con-
tinuous straight course. which was the
intent of the agreement with Mexico.
It was arranged to give Arizona deep
water harbor on the gulf Of Mexico by
making the treaty read that the boun-
dairy should be drawn in a straight line
from Nogales to point 20 miles below
the mouth of the Colorado river. After
the papers were drawn up and signed it
was observed that the reading had been
changed to make the line run to point
20 miles below the mouth Of the Gila
river.
Besides losing the harbor of Port Isa-
bel and 90 miles of deep water coast,
Arizona lost some of the best land in
Sonora. 1t was considered in the days
when the treaty was signed that Ari-
zona soil was not worth cent a quarter
of section, and the matter was dropped
without contesting.
Now that the discovery is made that
the land which the United States gave
up to Mexico by this error is worth more
per acre for the growing of tropical
fruits than any other part of America, it
seems as though our government should
take some steps to recover it, even though
q few million dollars were necessary to
move the line TO where it properly be-
longs. 1t is worth asitatng.- Tomb

Justice to the Hard-worked Letter Car
riers,
The letter carriers-that hard worked and
poorly paid class of Government officials
have at last secured what it has taken them
a very long while to obtain, that is, simple
justice They have received from the high
est tribunal in the land, the Supreme Court
of the United States, decision which says
that they were right in every Interpretation
they put on the eight.hour law Of Congress,
as it applied to them, and that the officials of
the Post Office Department, who used their
every endeavor TO make the law practically
nugatory were wholly wrong The court
says that when a man is employed to work
eight hours day and his employers order
him to be on hand at a certain time to begin
his labor that is the time when his eight
hours commence no matter whether the
work he is expected to perform is ready for
him or not.
If the work he is to perform is not ready
for him that is not his fault Nor can he be
assigned to other work in the meantime
The court says that the eight-hour law with
the letter carriers means just what it means
with any other class of worlsmen either il
public or private business 1t is contract
that has but one Interpretation. 1t has beer
the policy of the officials of the Post Office
Department to get away from and around
this law in every way conceivable. This
came from desire they had to get extra
work out Of the carriers without extra pay
so as to keep down the expenses of the De
partment and thus make a favorable show
ing when they wen. to Congress to ask fol
their annual appropriations. It looks like q
small matter, but it meant a change Of seq
eral hundred thousand dollars.
The decision is of the utmost importanc,
to every laboring man in the country, as il
shows the attitude Of the greatest court il
our land on question that is most vital tC
them. We believe the principal credit O.
pushing the fight to the finish is due to the
organization of letter carriers connected Will

WAGNER AND MELROY.

They VIII Enjoy Sheriff O'NeiPs
Chicken Dinners Awhile.
Judge Buckley yesterday listened to
the plea of guilty from Albert Wagner
and Frank McElroy for stealing chickens
from Maria Fountain and #. G. Eilers.
c. T. Jones, counsel for the defense,
asked the leniency of the court for Wag
ner. and he had promised to avoid such
trouble in the future. The court said the
Otfense was one that differed from ordi-
nary petit larceny cases, as 1t involved
the liability that the owner might either
take a shot at the thief and kill him, as
had been done during the past winter, or
might go out to investigate, with the re-
suit of harm to both parties. He had,
therefore, been in the habit OF pronounc-
ing sentence for six months. AS one ofthe
prisoners had, however, given the officers
information which enabled them to locate
the owners OF the chickens he felt little
inclined TO mercy.
The City Attorney, however. nipped
the Judges clemency in the bud by stat
ing that the ottense was really burglary,
but that lie had consented 10 a reduction
of the charge TO petit larceny, but thought
the prisoners were getting OFT lightly
with six months, especially as one OF
them had prior conviction against him.
Upon this statement the court fixed the
term of Imprisonment for each at six
months, saying in effect that 1t was we'll
hat those who were troubled with fowl
-tomachs which only other peoples prop
erty could cure, should understand that
they would be sequestered from public
gaze for a sufficient time to restore them
10 their normal condition aud remove all
symptoms of chick n-heartedness from

WHY IS IT
That CalifOrnianS Cannot supply the

mat Cal1IOrnianS Cannot supply the
Market With Eggs and Corn!
A most suggestive sight was seen yes
terday in the railroad freight depot. A
car OF eggs from the East had just been
unloaded, while farmers are getting
thirty-tive cents for fresh eggs. 1t set Il
RECORD reporter TO wondering
how it was that poultry does not pay
here when such prices can be realized for
eggs, and yet we have to send East for a
supply.
1t was an object lesson that appealed
more strongly to the mind than a whole
table of statistics on our imports as usu
ally prepared and tabulated. Piled up i'll
close proximity to the eggs was a carload
of canned corn from Nebraska, consigned
to a wholesale house here, which came in
the same train as the eggs, and a short
distance away was another carload, which
came from Iowa day or two ago and had
not yet been removed from the depot.
Many such carloads are noticed in the
course of the season and suggest the
question Of why we cannot have home
canneries to supply this market and give
employment to large numbers of people
during these hard times.
