Hands Down an Opinion.
Washington, Jan. 10.-The inter-
state commerce commission today
in an opinion by Commissioner
Clements, announced its decision
in the case of Fuller Il. Galloway
of La Grange, Ga, against the Louis
vile and Nashville Railroad company,
Western Railway of Alabama, and At
lanta and West Point Railway company.
The case involved the reasonableness of
freight rates from New Orleans to La
Grange, and the lawful relation of such
rates to charges from New Orleans to
Atlanta, Fairbury, Palmetto, Newman
and Hogansville. The commission de-
cides that the rates from New Orleans
to La Grange are unreasonable in them
selves and relatively as compared with
the rates to Atlanta and the other places
mentioned.
The rates from New Orleans are high
,.sOrter DIS,
IMAM for She longer distance over the
same line to Hogansville, Newman, Pal
metto and Fairbhry, all local points on
the Atlanta and West Point Road, and
such higher rates are also to be held in
violation of the long and short haul
clause. The rates from New Orleans to
La Grange are made by combining the
through rate to Atlanta with the local
rate back from Atlanta to La Grange.

About Eggs.

There is no excuse to fall back on
when poultry man sells stale or rot
ton eggs for fresh ones. Eggs from
new nests" should be tested before
selling-if sold at all. Nest eggs
can not get mixed up with good ones
if the poultryman knows his business.
China eggs or egg gourds used for
nest eggs will prevent this.
The tester, such as we have sew
cral times described, shows concu-
sively whether an egg is fresh or not.
A perfectly fresh egg is clear and
no air space can be seen in the large
end. AS the egg gets older this air
spaceenlarges until it finally occupies
half the egg. A perfectly fresh egg
will not shake, j. e., the contents will
not shake when the egg is shaken,
no matter how violently, but eggs
cannot stand the constant little jar
ring such as transportation in the
cars. Even if eggs are fresh when
started, if carried fifty or more miles
they will shake little when re-
ceived at the destination.
The old-fashioned test for eggs
is the water test. Take large pan
filled three or four inches Tor more)
inches with water. Place number
of eggs therein. those eggs that
Law on their side on the bottom are
fresh. The ones that stand up on
the small end are stale and those
that float are bad.-Agricultural
Epitomist.

American Securities Abroad.

The sales of American securities have
been, according to London advices, very
large abroad of late. If this state of
things holds, there will be an increased
influx of British gold into this market.
This demonstrates the faith abroad in
Me stability of our credit. There is an
other point of faith for which the peo-
pie not only of this but foreign countries
have good grounds for %credence. and
that is belief in the efficacy of Hostel

HE EXPECTED US.

II asst week, as noticed by our con-
L. temporary In a double-leaded arti-
Gle with three scare heads on il, jim
Renshaw, who owns the Cactus ranch
out on the Tucson road, refused to take
his copy Of the Kicker out Of the post
office. Jim not only owed us $3.50 on
subscription but refused his paper to
hurt our feelings. He's been sore on
us ever since we refused to lend him
our white shirt-the only one in town
to go on a drunk in.
We want to show an accommodating
spirit towards all, and we have the
name of being a good fellow, but we
want to say right here and now that
we believe a common blue wool shirt is
good enough for any man in this town
to get drunk in. If it isn't, he'd better
stay sober.
When we saw Jims little game we
mounted our mule and rode over to in
terview him. He was expecting US.
One bullet went through our hat and
another raled our mule. but after that
Jim lay down, and we dug the bullet
out of his shoulder and helped him in
to his dug-out He not only paid us all
his arrears in spot cash, but dollar
on advance subscription; and as soon
as able to move about he will person
ally canvass for subscribers.

victorious. We think we know our
gait without advice from the Recorder
or any other source AS a senator,
representing this glorious territory, we
put on more dignity than a horse can
draw, and even stand the governor of.
As mayor of this town we are "boss,"
and have the right of way over all
vehicles on the street and deadhead
passes to all shows which come along.
As postmaster we cock our nat on our
ear and step high, and as editor and
proprietor of the Kicker we can bor-
row money at the bank without an in
dorser All this is all right and as it
should be, but when the fit takes us
to throw off these mantles of dignity
and become a private citizen for a few
hours, we propose to follow our in
clinations and let the earping public go
to grass.

1T WAS A BLUFF.

ma ONDAY morning, while his honor
Il the mayor (who is ourself) was
transacting official business in his
room at the city hall, a Pine Hill cow
boy named Joe Scott sent in word that
he was on the public square prepared
to take and hold the town. In Just 10
seconds after receiving the message, his
honor had buckled two revolvers about
his waist and was at the foot of the
stairs. His prompt response to the def
ratified Scott, who put spurs to his
broncho and clattered out of town
without firing a shot. His honor got
two shots at the flying coward, one of
which passed through his hat, but he
got away unhurt, and people who met
him seven miles out say that he was
still on the gallop.
The Pine Hill chaps might as well
quit their blutfing and knock under.
They could scare the former mayor out
of his boots with one war whoop, but
things have changed. The present
mayor (who is oursel) doesn't scare,
and he is bound to run this town on the
law and order principle if it necessi-
tates adding ten more acres to the
graveyard.

A sTRANGER,s MISTAKE.

E7THE other day man who gave his
Il name as Hurricane Jim arrived in
this town on mule. He was piratical-
looking critter, and was armed with
four guns and knife. We were taxi
ing our regular afternoon nap when he
halted on the public square and uttered
his first yell, and we got out doors just
as he began shooting all over town, and
announcing that Arizona had seeded
from the United States of America and
was going it alone under his leadership.
We don't run the territory, and never
claimed to, but most everything with
in a radius of so miles around this
town takes off its hat to Jim Hellso. 1t
was our duty to point out this
strangers mistake, but he was a man
who wouldn't listen to argument or
reason. Before we could address him as
a fellow citizen he had opened fire on
us, and our only recourse was to shoot
back. The fusillade was lively while it
lasted, and it's only justice to Hurri-
cane James to say that he was no duff
fer. Three of his bullets grazed us as
they flew, and he was still popping
away when he lurched from the saddle.
The doctors have picked four bullets
out of his anatomy up to date, and are
on the trail of two more, but they say
he will pull through all right. We are
glad to know it. He was simply labor
ing under a mistake, and there is the
making of a good citizen in him if he
RECEIVERS. 1t is just as well that all
others of his ilk should know that we
are the man who runs things in this
locality, and that any attempt to usurp
cur privileges or belittle our dignity
means a row right off quick.
