NECESSITIES born of social life and
advancing civilization are the real
measure Of wages. says Hon. Thomas
B. Reed. This question of wages is
all-important as bearing upon the
question of consumption. All produc.
tion depends upon consumption. Who
are the consumers? In the old days
when the products of manufacturers
were luxuries the lord and his ret tainers,
the lady aud her maids. were the con.
sumers. class apart by themselves,
but to-day the consumers are the pro-
ducers. Long ago the iaborer con-
sumed only what would keep him
alive. To-day he aud his wife and
children are SO immeasurably the most
valuable customers that If the shop had
to give up the wealthy or those whom
it is the custom to call poor. there
would not be a moments hesitation or
a moments doubt.

No MORE PRIZE FIGHTING.
The Catron Bill Has Become
a Law.
Tho Bill Makes Prize Fighting Pun
ishable by I,nprisonmen ont for
Not Less Than Ono Year.

On February 9th Delegate Catron
introduced a bill in the House to pre-
vent prize fighting in the Territories
and the District of Columbia.
The object Of the bill was to prevent
the coming prize fights which were
supposed to take place in New Mexico.
Governor Thornton of that Territory
was disposed to let the fight come or +,
and will probably do nothing to inter-
fere with it If he can avoid doing so.
The law is broad and covers any kind
Of pugilistic encounter, and in future
there will be nc excuse for the officers
Of the Territories not preventing slug
ging matches. The following is the
full text of the bill as it passed the
House and Senate and was signed by
the presidents:
THAT any person who in any of the
Territories or the District of Columbia
shall voluntarily engage in pugi!istic
encounter, between man and man. or
a fight between man and bull, or any
other animal, for money or for other
things Of value, or for any champion.
ship, or upon the result of which any
money or anything Of value is let or
wagered, or to which any admission
fee is charged. either directly or indi-
rectly, shall be deemed guilty offelony.
and upon conviction thereof shall BE-
punished by Imprisonment in the peni-
Tertiary for not less than one year nor
more than five years.
"By the term 'pugilistic encounter
as used in this bill is meant any volun-
tary fight by blows, by means of fists
or otherwise, whether with or without
gloves. between two or more men, for
money or for prize of any character,
or for any other thing Of value. or for
any championship, or upon the result
OF which any money or anything of
value is bet or wagered. or to see which
any admission fee is charged, either
directly or indirectly"
The big prize fight is set to come of
tomorrow and Governor Hughes has
taken steps to prevent it taking place
in Arizona. He has ordered the militia
along the Southern Pacific railroad to
be in readiness for action at mo-
ment's call. But it is probable If the
fight does occur in Arizona that it will
be over before the authorities are
aware of it.

BETTER THAN LITIG ALTON
object Lesson on the Benefits of Arbi
tration.

tration.
An excellent object-lesson on
the value of arbitration has been
furnished by the Midland Railway
case, as referred to yesterday by
our New Zealand correspondent,
writes the editor of the Sydney
Telegraph. For many years the
plaintiff company, which had un-
dertaken to construct a railway
upon certain terms, had griev-
ance against the Government,
which was reciprocated. The claim
of the company against the public
taxpayer amounted to something
like million and half, while the
Government, who had seized the
uncompleted line on the ground of
breach of contract, claimed very
heavy set-off. For a long time
the dispute over this matter form
ed disturbing element in New
Zealand politics. Submitted to a
Court of Arbitration, with the Hon.
Edward Blake as arbitrator, the
matters in dispute have been sift-
ed, and decision come to within
a month. This was a case which,
had it been sent for settlement to
the law courts in the ordinary
way, would probably have kept
an army of lawyers in regular and
highly profitable employment for
months, or perhaps years. We
have had in these colonies some
instances of heavy litigation of
the same kind between Govern
ments andi contractors, in which,
after prolonged efforts, the legal
agents have succeeded in piling
up colossal amounts in costs,
almost totalling the amounts of
the claims. 1t is surely time that
the more rational and effective
method of settling disputes of this
class, which is furnished by
tribunal of arbitration consisting
of men with knowledge and sound
Judgment, replaced to large ex-
tent that of RELOCATING them to
professional quibblers about in
terpretations, precedents, and law
points. A few years ago, under
the auspices of the British Cham
bers of Commerce, there were
established Courts of Arbitration,
in which lawyers were not allow
ed to appear. Instead of them
reliable experts were entrusted
with the decision on all subjects
of dispute into which trade or
other technicalities entered. The
result has been such a striking
success in the saving of time and
money, and the replacement of
common sense judgments on the
merits of the cases submitted for
decision according to the letter of
the law, that it is surprising the
principle has not been more gen.
orally adopted.
