Still Want Passes.

Announcement is made that the traffic managers of the western roads have decided to refuse the re- quest of the National Live Stock association for the resumption of passes to live stock shippers. It was held that no state has the right to pass law requiring a railroad to give something for nothing. But this decision on the part of the traffic managers will not discour- age the cattlemen from continuing their effort. The meeting of dele gates in Denver early next month will likely give consideration t" this matter as we'll as other ques- tions.-Stookman..

MAY BE COMPUTED
Similar Lands Only May Be &c.,
 Iected Outside Reserves

Washington. April 6.-Senator Hansbrough's bill relating to the creation of forest reservation on the public domain, as amended by the committee on public lands, was favorably reported today.
 The committee adopted an amend ment providing that all selections of lands made in lieu of land here after relinquished to the United States within any forest reservation shall be limited to land of the same character and quality, both as to soil and timber, as the land relin- quished. Senator Heyburn offered an amendment requiring that SC lections be made in the state and territory in which the land relin' quished is situated. This amend ment was rejected and an exemp- tion was made of the state of Idaho, so that no selections shall be made in that state except for land relin- quished in the state. It was pro- vided further that the amendment shall not affect the agreement en- tered into by the secretary of the interior in regard to the San Fran cisco mountain reservation. The section of the bill relating to rail road land grants was amended so that it provides that no forest res ervation shall hereafter be created covering any lieu land or any lands within the place or indemnity linn its of any railroad land grant or any plated village, town or city. The secretary of the interior is au- thorized to ascertain all lands within such reservations, which are chiefly valuable for agriculture, and permit these to be disposed of to actual settlers, under the new home stead laws, in tracts not exceeding 16O acres in area.

The cause of mot known" is as- signed to 23 patients admitted on commitments, while alcoholism fol- lows, 9 in number. Gov. Brodie in his annual report on the insti- tuition says:
 'The real cause of many of the ''unknowns," in my opinion, may be traced to alcoholism, making in- temperance the greatest primal cause of insanity in these cases. This class of patients, I may add, embraces in major portion men from mining sections.
 "Miners, as rule, indulge in in- toxicants, while the privations-a lack of proper bodily nourishment and a solitary life-are great auxil- iaries in deranging the mental faculties.
 "Of those admitted during the year 22 were married men, 4 wid- overs and 46 single. Of the r females, s were married, s single and 1 widow"

New Road to Grand Canyon.

The Grand Canyon, north of Peach Springs, is at last to be con nected by rail with the outer world. This week Delegate Wilson intro duced a resolution in congress granting to the Peach Springs and Colorado River railroad company a right -of-way through the Wallapai Indian reservation. It is proposed to build a trolley line from Peach Springs into Diamond Canyon and operate it solely for sightseeing in the sublime depths of natures greatest wonder-the Grand and Diamond Canyons. At the point where tLe railroad reaches the can yon Major Powell reports that the sublimest sights and deepest gorges of the whole canyon system exists. A railroad from Peach Springs will reach the canyon in twenty miles, as against seventy miles from Will jams, and should be paying prop osition. In the Canyon country are also immense bodies of rich copper ores that cannot be handled under present conditions.-King- man Miner.
