A LETTER from the second assistant postmaster general says that in Texas New Mexico and Arizona an improve ment in the mail service on the staI routes has been inaugurated. Any per son living on or near route, and no, within the corporate limits of any town, and who provides suitable and convenient receptacle for the carrier, can have mail delivered. The carrier is not required to collect mail from the boxes, but there is no objection by the postal department to his doing so if it does not interfere with his making the schedule time.

HUMANE people should emphatically protest to their senators and members of congress against the passage of a bill which has been reported from the house committee on commerce. The bill proposes to make it possible to de- tain cattle in transit on the cars with out rest, food or water for forty hours at a stretch. The present law limits this torture to twenty-eight hours.

WITH the retirement of Gov. N. O. Murphy the territory loses an excel lent official. He leaves his office vol. untarily, having resigned, to enter upon business career, which we trust may be as successful as his public career. Gov. Murphy has been per- sistent worker for the advancement of Arizona and has accomplished much toward its development. He has with ability filled the office of secretary of Arizona and served twice as governor, and no one believes that during his public service he has been guilty of a questionable act, and he retires from public ofBce with the respect of every well-thinking citizen in the territory. The general consensus of opinion is that he was the best governor Arizona ever had.

THE new governor of Arizona takes his place under favorable circum- stances, and it is his desire to i'll the position with credit to himself and to the territory. He is liked and trusted by everyone. and will make popular and efficient official. He is thoroughly acquainted with the needs of Arizona
 and with her people. His long resi- dence in the territory and his ability fit Col. BrOdie for the honorable office.

Mrs. M. A. Jolley, Noble, o. T., writes: II have used Heroine for a number of years, and can cheerfully recommend it as the most perfect liver medicine and the greatest blood puri- fer. It is medicine of positive merit, and fully accomplishes all that is claimed for it." Malaria cannot find a lodgment in the system while the liver is in perfect order, for one of it's func- tions is to prevent the absorption of fever-producing poisons. Heroine is a most efficient liver regulator. Soc at Pioneer Drug Store.

SECRETARY ROOT's recent communi- cation to the senate contains signii- cant statement of the gradual reduc- tion of the military forces in the Phil. ippines. In 1891 there were 10000 American troops in the islands. To oday there are but 23 1000, and orders for the return of 5000 more have been issued. No better evidence of the pacification of the islands could be desired.

CROW FILES HIS SUIT.
Attorney General of Missouri Believes He
Has Sufficient Evidence to Crush
the Beef Combine.

Jefferson City, Mo-, May 1O.-At-
torney General f. C. Grow Friday
filed his petition before the supreme
court for custer proceedings against
the beef trust, which he believes
is operating in Missouri to control
the prices of meats. He believes the
testimony at the hearing before the
supreme court developed ample evil
dence to GUST or fine the packing
companies severely for violating the
antitrust law of this state. The at
torney general says he believes he
will be able to destroy the combine.
For the use of Attorney General
Knox, who has requested it, a copy
of the testimony taken at jefferson
City in the recent investigation will
be sent to Washington for the use of
the federal authorities.

q. CLAY EVANS STATEMENT.
The Ex-CommIssioner of Pensions Says
FOw Words AbOut His Leaving the
Pension Bureau.

Washington, May 1O.-After the
announcement yesterday that his
nomination as consul general to Lon
don had been confirmed by the SEN
ate, Mr.. Evans made the following
statement:
Much has been said and much has been
written about my retiring from the pen
sion bureau. 1 am exceedingly grateful
for the kind treatment and support
have received at the hands of my su-
press, the approval of the people and the
trained and competent corps of expert
enced employees in the bureau. while hold
ing the most trying position in the gov
eminent. have given over five years
of the best efforts, most diligent atten-
ton and close application to the duties
pertaining thereto. I am much pleased
with results and present conditions
About LOO, GOO claims have been adjudi-
Gated during this period. June 90, 1885,
there were 635,00O claims pending. The
work then was largely in arrears (from
two to three years, according to the
class). 1t is now current.
There have been no scandals connected
with the service or any branch of it.
The disbursements through its various
agencies have amounted to over $780,
100000. have been only one of the con-
tributors to this work; the great results
are due to the loyalty, efficiency and in
telligent aid had from the officials and
employees of the bureau and it's agencies.

House Gases.
sell to them.

Jefferson City, Mo-, May 12.-The
supreme court has fixed May 20 as
the day when the packing houses
must answer to the charge of main
tanning a combine in defiance of law.
On that date the writS of quo warran-
to issued yesterday afternoon on the
application of E. C.. Grow, attorney
general, are made returnable. The
attorney general picked the most Sc
we're remedy the state can use for
furnishing the combine. If he can
maintain his position the packing
companies, so far as Missouri is con-
cerned, will be at the mercy of the
court. The law is a severe one. The
great insurance combination admitted
its validity without carrying it to the
supreme court of the United States,
and a packing house combination
would hardly carry the fight to that
tribunal while the attorney general
of the United States is hunting for
evidence with which to prosecute the
packers.

recent years at least, the remains of
the late William Thomas Sampson,
rear admiral in the United States
navy and cOmmander-in-chief of the
United States naval forces on the
North Atlantic station during the war

tiOnal government was represented.
The procession to Arlington lay
through the western section of the
city and historic Georgetown,
whence, after crossing the aqueduct
bridge, it went by way of Fort Meyer
to the cemetery. The weather was
exceptionally fine and crowds of peo-
pie, approXimating between 10000
and $4,000, thronged the streets and
the country roads and gathered
about the grounds at Arlington.

NOW IT IS UNCLE SAM.
At Chicago Attorney General Knox Began
Suit to Throttle the Alleged Conn
bEae of Packers

Chicago, May 12.-The much
talked-old suit by the federal gov
eminent to probe the alleged pack
ers' trust was filed here Saturday by
United States Attorney Bethea by df-
rection of Attorney General Knox.
The bill of complaint is against
Swift & Co., the Cudahy Packing COM
pany, the Hammond Packing COM
pany, Armour & Co., the Armour
Packing company, The G. H. Ham
mond company, Schwarzschild & Sulz-
berger, Nelson Morris & Co., and the
individuals composing these corpora
tons and firms. The defendants, it is
alleged, control about 60 per cent. of
the total volume of trade, having
during 1901 purchased, slaughtered,
sold and shipped 100000 cattle, s.
100000 sheep and 100000 hogs. In
violation of the provision of can Act
to Protect Trade and Commerce
Against Unlawful Restraints and Mo-
nopolies," and in order to restrain
competition among themselves they
have directed and required their
agents at the various stock yards to
refrain from bidding against each
other, except perfunctorily and with
out good faith, when making pur-
chases of live stock and by this means
inducing and compelling the owners
to part with it at less prices than
they would receive if the bidding
were really competitive.
1t is also alleged that they
have engaged in and intend to con-
tinue an unlawful combination and
conspiracy to arbitrarily, from time
to time, to raise, lower and fix
prices, and to maintain uniform pri-
ces at which they will sell directly
or through their agents fresh meats
to dealers and consumers, holding
secret, periodical meetings and agree
ing upon the prices to be adopted
and enforced until at subsequent
meeting the same may be changed,
restricting and curtaiing the guam
titles of goods shipped whenever nee
essary to the maintaining of prices
fixed by imposing against each other
penalties establishing a rule for the
giving of credit to dealers and to the
conduct of their business with penal
ties for violations, keeping ''black
list of delinquents and refusing to
sell to them.

ANOTHER LAND LOTTERY.
Secretary Hitchcock Making Arrange
ments to Open Up 100000 Acres OF
Lands of the Rosebud Indians.

Washington, May 12.-There will
soon be another wholesale lottery,
conducted under the management OF
the federal government, with valu-
able homesteads as prizes. There
will be no blanks in the approaching
drawings, although some of the
prizes will be more desirable than
the others. About 100000 acres Of
land of the Rosebud Indians, in
South Dakota, were recently pur-
chased by act of congress, the law
providing that the territory should
be prepared for settlement by the
department of the interior.
Secretary Hitchcock, in making ar
engagements to open up this land, has
decided to follow the plan that was
operated so successfully a year ago
in connection with the Kiowa and
Comanche lands in the Indian terri
tory.

The Fairbanks bill appropriating
