TIE CITIZEN Is in receipt of pam phlet written by Gerrit l.. Lansing, and read a short time ago before the Chit Chat club Tn San Francisco, entitled "The Right of the Railroad to Reason able Rates" 4 careful review of tha' work by intending legislators on this branch of the public service would result in a saving of time and talent for other and more profitable purposes. We do not say this for the purpose of justify ing the railroads in wrong doing any more than we would countenancs such action ia others, either 6s pubic corpo- rations or private individuals but for the reason that railroad legislation mas too often been the stock in trade of Arizona statesmen to the exclusion of other i'm portant measures and the detriment of the state A history of the different at temp,s at railroad legislation Is given and the methods by witch these efforts were made pugatory, either by public sentiment or through the Instrumental ity of the courts. Legislatures, MT. Lansing maintains, shouli be reason able and just towards all busine-s s investments. Cases are cited to show that when legislature passes law that violates constitutional rights the rail road affected can go into court and have same equilsbly voided. From this fact Mir. Lansing concludes that courts are safer tribunals for the settlement of public grievances than inexper!en ced legislatures. IF this policy, the writer continues, was generally recognized rail- roads would be no longer forced into politics for protection and cheap politi- clans would be out of job.

A CORRESPONDENT writing to the American Economist tersely gives his opinion of the word protection" Ut is word," he says, that should be held dear to the hearts of every Ameri- can, man, woman aud child.

It is very hard to explain to a man that is not informed what a cartel of commerce Is, that it is a writing contaInirg stipuiations that gives aid and comfort to him in his everyday transactions.

SEVERAL MeAicaus have recently beer

SEVERAL MeAicans have recently been arrested for cutting wood presumably
 on government land. If this is so it is of course an infringement of the law that carries with It certain penalties. The msn who did the cutslng may per hsps have been aware of this or may have been ignorant of 1t, but however this may be, the implicated are hard working, industrious men who were striving to keep body and soul together. Certainly they are nos, from what we have been able to learn, the hard and lawless characters they have been paint ed, and it is unjust to so characterize

THE Bowie and Globe railroad has about loo men at work. Grading and track laying will be pushed ahead at the rate of about mile day. By July 1t is expected that all Globe freight will be delivered at that point. This is the road for which Tucson resoluted itself hoarse and the county added S20O,OO0 to its in debtedness. Unfortunately our good in- tentions fell by the wayside and all at tempts to get the road farther than the county line ended only in disappoint- ment. Graham county has been more fortunate.

A CORVETTE INVASION. Fifty Men Holding a Train at
 Yuma.
They Refuse to Get OF the Cars and The Train Will not Be Moved
 With Them.

Arizona is keeping up with process sion, being now out with a genuine in- vasion of Coxeyites.
 Trey are at Yuma, fifty strong, of the party who underwent so many vicissi- tudes at Colton. A freight train is now at Yuma that apparently cannot be taken away without the fifty Coxeyites on top of the cars. A day or two ago they arrived, says Conductor D. F. Brown, and when the train started to pull out they were on the cars. The conductor of the train ordered them off but they would not get down. The sheriff then came along and told them they were under arrest.
 The men have drum and bugles and flags. With all in full display and drums a-beating they went to jail. The district attorney, Calvert Wilson, had them arrested for felony. A habeas

THE town of Wilcox Is undoubtedly the best of the small towns along the line of the Southern Pacific railroad. Outside of Tucson it has the most sub stantial business houses 0f any toTn be- tween Yuma on the west and Demlpg on the east. There Is danger, however, of temporary decadeDce when the new railroad from Bowie to Globe has been completed evan so far as Solomonville. But fortunately for the town it has future before 1t that nothing can shake. The Sulphur Springs valley is one of the fairest in the country. The soil ia rich and water abundant at ID great depth. Both soil and water will De brought into use in the course of time, and Wilcox will be surrounded by one of the most pro- ductive agricultural countries in the west. The cattle interests of the country are also large and well establi shed, and enters largely into the main tainance of good town. Its citizens are wide awake progressive business men who are fully alive to the necessities of their town. Wilcox is deserving of prosperity and the CITIZEN joins them with her good wishes.

THE case of the territory against Judge J. T. Fitzgerald, says the Graham County Bulletin, came to an abrupt ending in the district court last Friday. The trlal had been put off several times on motion of the district attorney be- cause of the absence of R. E. Wilson, who he claimed was the material witness in the case. Wilson had been i'll, but on Friday afternoon he appeared iu court, but to the surprise of all was not sworn in the case Only two wit nesses were sworn for the territory. The defe1ss did not offer word of testimony or explanation. On motion Of Judge Edwards the court instructed the jury to bring in a verdict of not guilty. It was asserted from the beginning by Judge Fitzgerald and his friends that there was absolutely nothing in this case. The result of the trial fully iusti- fi-d their claim.

A Grave Question.
Prospector.


 The case of the Territory vs. Chas. Overlook for the slaughte'ing cattle without inspection was called to Justice Kaska's court at ? p. today.
 Frank Broad, cattle inspector, dis covered that MT. Overlook was slaugh- ter ng cattle without the formaliiy of ealing him to inspect them, and had him arrested on complaint charging that he was violating the cattle insps c tion law, which requires all persons butchering in towns of over 1000 inhab- itants to p.y the inspector 9 cents per head for inspecting them.
 Mir. Overl1ck's defense was that Tom bstone does not come under the provisions of the act for the reason that Tombstone has less than 1000 inhabit- tants. He pleadsd his own case before the jury.
 The jury in the case of the territory vs. Overlook brought in verdict of not guilty, after ten minutes deliberation. The district attorney objected to the defendants attempt to prove a shortage Tn Tombstones population, which was sustained by the court. The jury look ed upon the matter from supreme standpoint. and declared the act of the legislature unconstitutional.

THE WOoLEN MILL PIPE LINE.
A Protest Against the Uso of stesl
Pipe.

Protest Against tho Uso OF stesi
Pipe.
Mr.. Gay S. Alien, jr.. OF 1928 West
Second street, writes to the HERALD as
follows:
In the Issue OF your paper OF last Tues
day the writer observes with greatest
surprise the report of the zanjs commits
tee to the council at its afternoon ses-
sion recommending the acceptance OF the
bid for riveted steel pipe for the Lake
Shore avenue and Second street pipe
liue, more commonly known as the
Woolen Mill pipe line. This, you NAV
observe, is the same kind OF pipe. viz:
22-inch No. II. steel riveted pipe that is
now in the ground and causing such
damage to this public thoroughiare and
the property in that vicinity.
II was hoped by all citizens in this
district that the new work advertised
for would bring relief to this leeky and
dangerous pipe line, but by adopting
the came character OF pipe that has
proven a lamentable failure in the past
it is to be the same experience over
again, and an enormous aum Of money
spent in addition to what has already
been expended. instead OF having q per-
manent improvement.
The following amounts have been
spent for two pipe lines of this char-
actsr. not taking in account the sum
spent for constant repairing and tearing
up streete.
In the spring of 1887 % inch. No. IA
riveted pipe was laid, at an expense OF
81 % per foot. Total cost, $7,6S7.b0.
In August, 1890. a portion of the
above pipe line, viz 1870 feet had
rusted out beyond all repairs (same as it
is now and contract WAS awarded for
22-inch No. u steel riveted pipe at an
expense OF sl.52la cents per foot. Total
cost $36l4 25.
This you will observe shows On ex-
penditure OF sll. .3O1,75 for period of
hardly four years. aud not considering,
as above stated. the expense OF repair
ing the pipe, which has likely been in
the neig hborhood of $1,000.
The present contract II executed will
be another outlay of sS52500 for the
same kind OF pipe, making total cum
OF $40 S26 rs epent since the spring OF
1887.
In opening the bids for this work
there were several bids OF different
classes of pipe, aud among them 10 the
laminuted pipe, known to withstand the
action of alkai soil such as this, but
which is found to be some higher than
the pipe adopted.
Is it not economy to lay pipe in this
work that will not only last but prove
permanent improvement, and get rid Of
