reduced IN Polk county, by the state
board, about SIS.
And this year they have been placed
back to about what they were before
being reduced, so that in 1904 the rail-
roads will pay no more taxes in Polk
county than they lid under the old
revenue law, and not as much as tt ey
did pay ten to twenty years ago. And
further, that the assessment under the
new law cost Polk county some s., 200
more than un.er the old.
1t is to be hoped that the day may
speedily arrive in this state when its
officers may feel that public Office
is public trust, and that that trust
should be kept so sacred as to let no
act of him who holds it cast any sus-
picion thereon. At least that he who
holds these high and sacred positions
may so guard and protect them both
by act and expression as not to poison
the fountain of patriotism in the minds
of the rising generations.

Another Warning Comes to
 Arizona of Its Danger
TALKED OF AT DINNER
Republican Members of the House Committee on Territories Believe the Bill Will Be Passed this Session Delegate Rodey Urging It.

Washington. D. C., Feb. 3.-(Special to The Republican, )-Former Governor Murphy of Arizona gave a dinner to- night to the republican members of the house committee on territories at the Arlington at which Judge Kibbey, B. A. Fowler and Sims Ely, editor Of the Arizona Republican of Phoenix; F. s. Clark, of Prescott, and C. C. Randolph, of Washington, were also guests.
 There was a full discussion of the statehood question in which Governor Murphy. Judge Kibbey~and other Ari- zonians strongly opposed joint state hood with New Mexico, while Delegate Rodey of New Mexico advocated It, as the only solution possible.
 The members of the committee made 1t plain that in their opinion joint statehood only will be considered by congress and in their opinion the bill will pass this session. MT. Ely sug- gested that the bill should contain @ provision that the proposition be sub mitted to the territories separately per hitting the people of Arizona to reject joint statehood at the polls, if taey choose.
 Chairman Hamilton said that that was a new suggestion and ie was lis posed to consider it Jsvora bly, The other members of the committee ind. . cated a like willingness to incorpor- ate the provision but probably New Mexico people will oppose such al ar rangement. C. c. RANDOLPH.

Russians Say Will Be Re-

IF WAR SHOULD COME
Though There Were Few Develop ments Yesterday the Indications of An Outbreak Are Growing Stronger The Reply Expected Tomorrow.

London, Feb. Especial dispatches received from the far east and pub lished this morning add little to the knowledge of the actual situation.
 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily Telegraph quotes from the Novoe Vremya a bitter editorial at tack upon the United States. which he supposes to be an outcome Of the dispatch of American consuls to Muk- den and Antung. The Novoe Vreyma accuses the United States of a desire to win control of the entire globe and exclude Europe from the far eastern market and declares "If. as it seems likely. war breaks out. it will have heen instigated by the Yankees with their utilitarian views
 Baron Hayashi. Japanese minister to Great Britain. described the situation in the far east as certainly very threatening" but he said everything depended upon Russia's reply.
 Just before adjournment of the nights session of the house of com mons a member asked the government whether it had any information con- corning the rumOr that Russia had declared war.
 To this question Home Secretary Akers Douglas replied None what eyer"

TeIegra1hic inquiry vas received at rhIs office yesterday from Los Angeles. respecting Mrs. Belle Kendall. an ariisra. model who disappeared sud- denly in this city on January l2' and "a ho. the dispatch said. had been found ln i-cs Angeles Tuesday"
 It was learned on inquiry at her former home here that she had dis appeared as reported and that her mother and sister are in the city. one cf them spending the winter here Cor her health.
 The mother was yesterday appraised nf tre information that her daughter haa been located md asked for further particulars respecting her disappear 4uce. She refused to talk saying only that she had heard from her daughter. that she was an right. was old enough to take care or herself and was her own master. She admitted though, that sl,e had been worried for few days alter the young woman left and before sine heard from her. She said her movements were the business of uo uu- elee and she saw no reason for any publication of the incident. Some publicity had been given the affair, however. by the fuct that a young. gen tlcman friend had been greatly inter rFf-d and was very anxious 10 locate htr. Clearly. however. he had nothing Co do Nith her disappearance for he, like the mother, was very much wor- rifd and had made diligent inquiry re- srerting her whereabouts.
 As thare is but one art studio in the c.ty where life models are employed, application was made there in the hope that some information concerning the mls4iug woman might be secured. All that could be learned was that she came from Chicago. was professional
 model and had been employed. She only worked but one day. however. and the next day sent word that she could not keep further appointments.
 Since the gathering together of the above Information. it has been report ed from various sources, taat she has a husband in Chicago. Whether she came here merely to be with her rela- tikcs or iu search of more rcmmerative employment in the line of her work is not known except for the information from Chicago but while here she was heard 10 say that she was disappointed Iu Phoenix. that it was not as large rlace as she had expected and she had in mind the continuing of her journey Co California. It was that eN- precision. no doubt. that led her friends to think she had gone tc Los Angeles. There seems to be no reason why Mrs Kendall should have left Phoe- nix without notifying her friends, but because she did go so suddenly she caused them considerable worry and gained the very publicity she seemingly sought 10 avoid.
