The Ship Subsidy Bill.

The maximum annual eXpendl
ture under the ship subsidy bill
now under discussion in Congress
is $9,O0O,OOO. Our government is
paying 81, 100000 to carry mail
that would be carried free by the
steamers which are expected to re
ceive the proposed subsidy. This
mail pay is increasing at the rate
of ABOUT 100000 yearly, and be-
fore the maximum Of the susidy is
reached would probably be $2,OO0,-
600, leaving 100000 as the ac
tual subsidy.
The provisions of the bill are
that ships already in the. service
shall not receive subsidies mole
than ten wears, and no new ships
more than twenty years. A steam,
er making twenty lone knots an
hour, which would have to pay
$28l,35S year for coal to keep
up that speed, would receive a sub
sidy of 1904, 290 during the year.
A steamer making only ten knots
would burn $33.1S0 worth of coal
and receive $4,000 subsidy. A
vessel making sixteen knots would
bum S10e,S64 worth of coal and re-
ceive $157.92O subsidy.
The committee on commerce,
through its experts, has furnished
the senate computations showing
the exact amount that would be
paid to each class of ships used in
the freight, passenger and mail bus
mess. 1t costs more than twice as
much to run fast ship as to run a
slow one. The consumption Of
fuel is the most important item.
For example, a steamer running at
the rate Of ten knots would burn
1913, 1000 worth Of coal a year, while,
If it ran at twenty knot an hour, it
would burn 1921, 900 worth.
In this we have very strong
argument against the bill as it now
stands, especially in so far as
freight transportation is concern
ed, as it favors fast steamers rath-
er than those that carry heavy car
goes. The objection to fast steam
ers is we'll sustained by Mr.. j. j.
Hill, of the Great Northern rail
way, and the committee of Com.
merce is now endeavorihg to pro-
vide for both kinds of steamers
fast packet and mail carriers and
heavev freighters-with equal lib

A shooting scrape occurred in front of the Clifton hotel late Friday night. A couple of Mexicans were trying to stand near the bridge. The keeper of the stand demonstrated, when one of them pulled a gun and shot the old man through the leg, after which both of them made their escape out of town. The wound is not serious and the old man will soon be around again attending to business.

By ar the best game of base ball that was ever played in this part of the territory was pulled off last Sun day on our home diamond, the teams being Morenci and Clifton. Long, Fl Paso's famous pitcher, did the work for the MOrenci club, while John Will Hams, of the A. c. Co. store depart ment, did the twirling for the locals. It goes without saying that Williams is the better pitcher of the two, as three hits was all the Morenci heavy batters got off him, while Clifton had picnic for while with Long. It was by an accident that the Morencies got the best of the game. At the close of the ninth inning the score stood 5 to 4, while Clifton had three men on bases. All the boys deserve credit for the way they handled the ball. Old timers say it was the best game of ball they have ever seen in the terri tory The ERA does not think much of Fosters work as a designer of trans parencies, but as a short stop it is free to admit that he probably stands without peer in the territory. Both teams were in perfect form, The Clifton rooters did some very hard work for the local boys, but the Mo- renci team had also some pretty good rooters who rooted to a finish.

It has been announced, and seems to be generally understood, that Wiley E. Jones, the democratic wheel horse af Solomonville, has decided to open law office in Clifton, and will make his home here. MT. Jones is one of the most able lawyers in the territory and will no doubt find his new field a most profitable one.

Mrs. O. K. Clinton and children re- turned Wednesday evening from a visit to the Texas coast. They were at Quintana during the storm which destroyed Galveston. QuIntana was a village, of about 400 building, be- fore the storm. After the storm had
 passed it was found that only 12 build ings were left standing in the place. The town was sIIual ed near the gulf, and was from three to ten feet under salt water. Mrs. Clinton was in one of the houses which withstood the storm. She thinks more of Clifton than she did before her trip to Texas.

Lordsburg vs. Clifton.

Sunday the Lordsburg team will be up to play the locals, and good game is expected. White, of the Tucson team, will pitch for Lordsburg, and our little Williams will do the pace setting for Clifton. Both teams are very strong and every one should go out to see the fun. The boys have a new ground which is two miles out and will have same in fine condition by Sunday. Excursion trains will leave the A. & N. M. depot at one o'clock sharp. Don't fail to see the game, and remember the time.

Clifton expects to have as swift ball ground as any other town in the territory. It is located on the old race track below town. Trains will be run out and there will be room for every one. The fare has been re- duced to the small sum of 25 cents for the round trip, and the game free. Don't fail to go out Sunday.

 A considerable amount of money changed hands here on precinct off cers. 1t is claimed that tmany par ties traded anything from congress- man down for vote for justice or constable.

The ERA is informed that it made an error last week in its report of the Lordsburg-Clif base ball match. The ERA gave the result of the game as IA to 10 in favor of Lordsburg. The Lordsburgers claim that the result was IA to in their favor. The Lib eral claims the game was won by Lordsburg rooters. Those Lordburg- CTS always were great rooters, and when it comes. to an authority on roofing the editor of the Liberal heads the list.
