A New Rule.

- w" fhetNs
The rule made several weeks ago
by the Hawaiian Navigation Com
pany that freight for its steamers
would not be received on sailing days
after a certain hour has worked with
so much success that ii is probable
that ,me next few weeks will see all
the local companies adopting it. Yes
terday il was given out that the sail
ing time of the Mauna Loa had been
changed to noon and that no freight
would be received for her after 10
o'clock on the morning of the sailing
day. II is said that the rule will be
strictly adhered to. BY people who
have a good deal to do with the hand
ling of freight for the island boats 1t
is said that although due notice OF
sailing time is always given in ad-
vance of the departure of steamers
the shippers have made it practice of
sending stuff to be shipped right up to
the time of the sailing instead of rush
ing themselves to get it to the wharf
a little earlier. This is certainly true
of the shippers by the larger steamers
which lie here two or three days tax
ing on freight Especially is 1t no
ticeable with the Kinau. This vessel
always arrives here Saturday after
moons and by five or six o'clock she
is discharged. Sunday of course is
day of rest and Monday there is but
little freight sent to her. She sails
at noon ON Tuesdays and from the
first thing in the morning of the day
Of sailing until the, vessel is ready TO
leave there is a bowling mob OF dray
drivers fighting for their turn at the
gate to get rid of their freight. The
freight has to be hustled aboard in a
hurry and ii is often damaged. Then
there is q roar from the shipper about
the way the steamship company
smashes things.
Said one OF the freight clerks yes
terday: IF the people who do the
shipping here would only try and help
us folks out little there would not be
near so much confusion as there al
ways is on sailing day. Everything
is rushed down at the last minute and
we are at our wits end to know what
to do with IL An hour before the YES
sci sails sometimes someone will want
TO send several thousand feet of lum.
Der or a horse or some mules or LOT
of fertilizers OF course not knowing
of this we have not figured for the
space and probably the stuff has to 60
on top OF some other freight that will
have to be put out first We like to
oblige our patrons as much as We can,
but ali system is Knocked in the head
by this very fact that we try to ohlige
everybody. and then as rule get
jumped on for IT. II the companies
viii all get together and make q hard
and fast rule anu then stick by it and
not break il in single instance we
viii be able to do Justice by every
! body This rule works at the post
Office about the closing of the mails
and | don't see why. il it was lived
up 10 by the steamship people. i
could not be made a great aid in the
handling of freight"

Fooled the Union.

Although the American bark Pal
myra was not supposed TO have her
crew completed yesterday she sailed
in about as short notice as any YES
sci ever leaving this port Captain
Keller had stated when he first arriy-
ed that he would not take a Union
crew. The Sailors Union declared
that he would not sail without Union
men. A watch was placed on the yes
sci. but as no men appeared it was
not thought that the crew was found
The vessel was all ready for sea with
the exception of a crew at noon yes
terday. Shortly before 2 o'clock the
crew was put aboard and before the
last man was over the side the Fear

Master Frank Turk was on the wharf
to cast of her lines. Captain Keller
was on the poop and waved good

to deal with he subject at all, the widest possible latitude should be given to the interior department in the matter of figures.
 The national leasing proposition is one more illustration of the dis advantages of leaving the arid lands in the hands of the gen. eral government. However dili- gent Washington officials may be in studying conditions in each locality, it is practically impossible at a distance of thousands of miles to deal with purely local questions as satisfactorily as they could be handled at home. If Arizona owned her arid lands an acceptable and equitable system of leasing the ranges could be devised, and the resulting revenues would ma terially lessen the burden of the taxpayers. The situation in this respect will be greatly improved, of course, if Delegate Smiths state hood bill becomes a law, for then the state will own a large portion of the land covered by the ranges.

Official Paper of COconinO County
LEASING THE GRAZING LANDS.

It is evident that during this session of congress there will be a determined effort to establish a leasing system for the grazing lands of the public domain, and it is also evident that the congressman who are trying to deal with the subject need enlightenment concerning the diversified conditions under which stockmen are operating on the open ranges. It is such a difficult prob lem to solve that it is next to inn possible to have national legislation upon the subject without doing in justice to many localities and de- feating the ends of the proposed legislation, so far as revenue is concerned
 It is generally conceded that there is justice in the-abstract prop osition that the grazing lands should yield a rental Perhaps a majority of stock owners themselves favor the idea At least the Ma tional Live Stock convention held at Chicago the first of the month adopted resolutions in favor of a leasing system Such a policy, if properly worked out, would put an end to conflicts over range rights, and from this standpoint the idea appeals to stockmen. But the diff ficulty lies in framing a law which will be just to all sections, unless wide discretion is left with the sec retary of the interior.
 The bills introduced in the lower house by Representative Stephens of Texas and Representative Bow ersock of Kansas, both provide that the minimum price shall be two cents per acre. There are many ranges in Arizona, as well as throughout the arid region, for which rental of quarter of cent per acre would be too burden some to the cattle raisers. Numer- ous ranges embrace vast areas of land upon which the actual grazing is almost a minus quantity, yet such areas are necessarily embraced in order to afford the proper pro- lection to each range. It is the manifest ignorance concerning these conditions which makes it danger ous to fix arbitrarily minimum rental figure If the government is ]

Officially Announced.

A telegram from Washington, dated Dec. 25, states that it is an- nounced authoritatively that Gov ernor Leslie NJ. Shaw, of Iowa, will be appointed secretary of the treas ury, succeeding Secretary Lyman J. Gage. There will be no change in the office of the secretary of agriculture, Secretary Wilson, also of Iowa, continuing to remain in that position. The date of the transfer of the treasury department will depend on the mutual conven- fence of the outgoing and incoming secretaries Gage having signified his entire willingness to remain at the head of his department until such time as it may be agreeable to his successor to take hold. It is supposed however, that Shaw will be inducted into his new office some time in January. It has been known for two or three days that he was slated for the appoint ment to succeed Gage but not until today did the Iowa executive ac- cept the tender made him.

WE had expected to devote some space to the dance given on Christ mas Eve, but, owing to the manner in which the affair terminated, have decided that q description of the "doin's" had better go untold. Such actions might go on the Bowery in New York, but the civ ilization of Arizona has passed that stage and we hope to hear of no more such disgraceful events.

THE NEWS acknowledges receipt of q recent number of 'The Skirm- isher," published by the cadets of St. Matthew's school, at San Mateo, Cal, of which Ivon Everett Dennis, son of MT. and Mrs. J. M. Dennis, of Rhoades, is editor in chief, and Maurice Salzman, of this city, bus mess manager. The magazine has improved wonderfully since we last had the pleasure of looking over a copy of the same and shows that great interest is being taken in its different departments.

SHOULD START AT THE ROOT.

That Western physician who boldly advocates the plan of killing all men, tally and physically imperfect children that are born, on the plea that such course would improve the human race, doesn't go far enough. He should begin his system of improvement at the be- ginning. There will be imperfect off, spring as long as there are imperfect parents, and if this neartless theorist expects to make a success of his idea he should begin by killing off all the mental. moral and physical failures among the grown people so that they can have no opportunity to perpetuate their infirmities. The physical, mental and moral degenerates who perpetuate their kind must be electrocuted or oth- erwise disposed of if the Doctor expects to make a complete and finished job of it. He must not murder the helpless babies and pass bv those who are re- sponsible for imperfect children. As one of Dickens characters puts it. That ain't not bein' fair"

The Fortune That Came.
London Sketc

London Sketch.
 A man in rough clothes went into quayside barber's shop at Cherbourg for a shave He said that he was go- ing to America, as fortune was dead against him in France. As he sought for the pence, he came across crum- pied morsel of paper, which he glanced at and handed to the barber, with the remark, "oYu can take that rubbish. ," It was a ticket for the "Loterie des Artistes Dramatiques." The Figaro crumpled it still further and threw it on the floor. His wife found it and ironed it out. The emigrant had for gotten it, the barber had forgotten it.; but, when the lottery wheels told their tale on May 31 at the Marie of the Tenth Arrondissement, that re- jected piece of paper was worth 100000 francs, and the smile was on the pru- dent wife's face. What fortunes are going a-begging over French lotteries is incredible. The banks ask for the owners of tickets that in regard to Panama represent such prizes as 500,00O francs.

ALWAYS READY FOR WAR.
Reasons Why Germany is Ever Up
 in Arms.
The Spectator.

The Spectator.
 1t must be very horrid, from one point of view. to be a German. We English constantly forget 1t. because we at once admire and slightly dread the action of the German Emperor. but no people are anything like so dangerously situated as the Germans. who at three days notice may all be fighting for their lives. We English get panics occasionally. but we have al- ways a secret confidence in the sea. The Australians have many troubles. but they have only one foreign enemy, and friend whom they regard as al- most irresistibly strong. The French are nervous. but they can be invaded only from one side and besides their fre- quent historic success against that en- emy they trust in an ally. who they think will make the invaders always dread an attack in rear.
 But the Germans are liable to inva sion at once from the east and from the west. in each case by the mishtiest armies of Europe, separated from them only by frontiers which in history have always been successfully passed. The rock upon which the German mill itary system rests is black necessity. No Germans home can be made safe without a prodigious army. an army unprocurable by wages; and even that army, vast as 1t is, would not be cuff fic;ent security but for a professional perfection which makes it superior to enemies far beyond itself In the num- bers WlB can be drawn together for bat tie. Taking the fighting class as 6 per cent. of the nation, Germany has only 5000, 900 warriors, against 9,500,000 who might be opposed to her, and the dif- ference can only be made up by inoes- sant attention. rigid drill. and g. cer- tain military tone infused into the whole life of the nation. Everybody to take a single illustration familiar to all Germans, must not only be ordered, but be ready, to give up his horse If the cavalry requires the beast. or to obey with certain willingness any other requisition.
