4 Good Appointment.

The RedIands (Cal.) Citrogrnph has the following: Personally we are much gratified that ex-Senator ThOmas H. Carter has been elected president of the Federal Worlds Fair Commission. which fair is to be held in St. Louis two years from now. MT. Carter is q delightful man, personally, good talker, ready debater, and breadth of executive ability. He has been of much service to the national irriga- tion movement, and is an enthusiastic supporter of the national reclamation of arid lands. He will add much to the interest to be awakened to the great fair and We predict that it will be the greatest exposition the world has ever witnessed.

Sugar Beet Industry.

The beet sugar industry, says the Yuma Sentinel, is making rapid strides. In nearly all of the western states it has taken strong hold. It is evident that the Pacific coast is better adapted t0 it's production than any portion of he east from the fact that it's climate is so much superior. Arizona has taken the right step in exempting beet sugar machinery from taxation for a series of years. Nearly all of our valleys are we'll adapted to beet productions: in some of them-as for instance the valleys of the Col oradU and the Gila-the manufactur- ing of beet sugar could be carried on twelve months in the year.

HARD WORK FOR FUNSTON.
Eneray Made 1t Impossible to Down the Tireless Little Night
 Horse of War.

All that Funston has won, says an exchange, has been by the sheerest hard work. From the first he had more or less of a false reputaiiO at home, where the people thought that he was a bowling daredevil of a Kan san who swan rivers under fire.
 Upon his return 10 the Philippines, after going home with the Kansas regi- ment, he was given the great district around San IsidrO. which had already been occupied by our troops. The work of reconstruction was not to his taste. He found it. still more irksOme when sharp fighting was still going on in the other parts of the island. It was then, so far as the army is con- cerned, that he laid the ghost of his reputation as a mere swimmer of rivers, by learning Tagalog, studying the manners and customs and making the big province of Neova Ecija, Prin- cipe and Nueva Viscaya, with the small force at his command, among the most peaceful in lhe island.
 The natives came to call him the "little night horse" because of his ac tivity. He organized a fine native in- telligence bureau and score of scouts mounted on native ponies, which he laughingly called his "household cavalry" Whenever the intelligence department brought news that Il band natives with rifles were gathering in u certain place, Funston, with his scouts would sweep down upon them. In short, his assignment at San IsidU showed how impossible to down an en- ergeLic man. His provinces joined those in which Aguinaldo had his headquarters. When one day he cap tured letters showing exactly where Aguinaldo was, if General McArthur was willing, it was certain that either Aguinaldo would be taken or Funston would die in the attempt. The pres- tige of his great reputation among the natives was the talisman which made the ex-insurgents who accompanied him loyal to him. He is great little man.

deputies appointed under this act shall
be learned in law and admitted to prac-
tice in the September court of the state
before they shall have been appointed
assistant or deputy county attorney.
Section 4. That the county attorneys
of counties of the first and second class

mine the compensation allowed assist

If any opposition is made to the pas
sage of the bill by those members Of the
legislature who think the financial condi-
ton of their own counties will not war
rant the appointment of a second assist
ant their attention will be called to sec
| ton five which gives county commissions
ers the right to fix the compensat ton Of

Of, Alderman Bryant called the attention
of the council to the dangerous condition
of Harrison avenue at the crossing of
the Northern Pacific tracks. He said
that it was constant menace to the
people and a cut should be made in the
street SO as to permit travel under the
Northern Pacific tracks. AS the season
of construction was approaching he
moved that a committee of three he APP
pointed to act in conjunction with the
mayor and city engineer to confer with
the management of the street car COM
pany and the Northern Pacific with re-
gard to the expense each party will be
willing to bear in making the improve
mcnt.
The motion was carried and the mayor
appointed on the committee Aldermen
bryant, Macarthur and Mayo.
1t is understood that the improvement
will cost about $4,000 and Manager Wharf,
ton of the street car company has stat
ed that he will bear his proportion of
the expense. The verdict is unanimous
that the improvement should be made.
The apparatus of the fire department
in the city hall was moved into it's new
quarters in the Quartz street station to-
day with the exception of the chemical
engine. which will retain it's station in
the city hall and within few days the
place will be fixed up so that the Jail
Office will be on the same floor.

THE RAILROADS

Towards the close of la year practi-
tana. Spokane and coast traffic includ
ing the ST. Paul and Chicago lines. each
of which was represented by the highest
traffic official, entered into an agreement
which has for its object a strict mainte-
rance of tariff rates and rules and the
prohibition of all free transportation
Mllatever, that would in any way affect
or control competitive traffic.
This agreement took effect January l
and all the traffic men in this section are
working under these instructions. No
flee passenger transportation can now be
granted to shippers by any of the roads.
Formerly large shippers could occa-
sionally get favors of this character but
the rule now in force is general and Is
more stringent than any formerly made.
The presidents and vice presidents of the
large systems have taken the matter in
hand and seem determined to stop ndis-
crminate giving out of transportation.
1t has always been hard for the freight
agents to draw the line between large
and small shippers and as there has been
much abuse of the privileges the roads
have solved the question by cutting off
that class Of transportation altogether.
The roads feel that both the freight and
passenger rates are reasonable and So
long as there is concerted action on the
part of the roads no injustice will be
done to any of the shippers.
