Chickamauga Park Ca, May 81
The United States government has here
IN operation one of the largest acety-
lene gas plants in the world. The mill
tary post at the entrance of the histor-
ical Chickamauga battlefield where
thirty thousand Union and Confederate
soldiers were lost in the memorable
battle of Sept. 10 and 20, 1868, contains
about one hundred buildings, the
seventy-five principal ones of which are
lighted with acetylene. To accom-
plish this six and one-half miles of
mains and two miles of service pipes
are in use. while sixty-five street
lamps brilliantly illuminate the ave
nues of the post.
In 1903 the War Department In
stalled test acetylene plant at Fort
Meyer, Virginia. The results were
so gratifying and the superiority
of the illuminant so evident that the
government, March 20, 1904, placed
the contract for the Chickamauga
plant, in which every citizen OF the
United States should have his pro
rata of pride.
But the government has not con-
fined its acceptance of acetylene to
this military post. Since becoming
satisfied of the efficiency, superiority
and economical advantages of this
particular illuminant, the United
States has installed number of
plants in Indian schools and other gov
ernment institutions.

Remarkable Artesian Wen.

The twelve-inch well the Sonora
CMexico) railway has bored at Pesqui-
era station has encountered strong
artesian flow which is remarkable. At
n depth of 160 feet the water gushed
to The height of eight feet above the
surface. Sinking was continued TO a
depth of $50 feet. and the flow in
creased TO height of thirty.five feet.
The new well will supply water for
all purposes needed by the railway.
And 1t demonstrates the feasibility of
securing artesian water for irrigation.

FIXING RAILROAD RATES.

Making railroad rates is like play.
Ing a game of checkers or chess. Com
munities TO be benefited. producers.
manufacturers or shippers TO be aided
represent the pieces used. Every pos
sible move is studied for its effect
on the general result by skilled traf-
fic managers. A false move in the
making of freight rates may mean the
ruin of n city. OF n great manufactur-
Ing interest, of an agricultural com
munity. Railroads strive to build up
ali these so that each may have an
equal chance in the sharp competi-
tion of business. So sensitive to this
rivalry are the railroads that In order
to build up business along their lines
they frequently allow the shipper 20
practically dictate rates. Rate max.
ing has been matter Of development:
OF mutual concessions for mutual
benefit. That is why the railroads of
the United States have voluntarily
made freight rates so much lower in
this country than they are on the
government-owned and operated rail.
ways OF Europe and Australia that
they are now the lowest transporta-
tlon rates In the world.

ANk

HIFeaoy EXECUTED Elgnt Meh-Sec-
retary Favors Habitual Criminal
Act.
Denver, May 27.-With the convic-
tion of Joseph Johnson at Trinidad on
the charge of killing John Fox there
rado awaiting execution under the cap
ital punishment act. These are Fred
Arnold and Newton Andrews, con-
demned to die in the week beginning
June 1lth; Patrick Bremen, convicted
of killing his sweetheart at Leadville,
to hang the week beginning July 21st;
Charles O.. Peters, to hang the week
beginning November 10Th, and Joseph
johnson, date not yet set.
All of these men are under thirty
years of age, except Johnson. War
den Cleghorn has already executed
eight men for the state, and if he re-
mains in Office and there is no inter.
ference with the cases, he will have
hanged thirteen by the end of the pres
ent year. There is the possibility, of
course, that there may be others added
to the list in the meantime.
In discussing the capital punishment
act recently, Secretary C. T.. Hagar of
the State Board of Pardons expressed
the opinion that there was bill be-
fore the last Legislature which, If IL
had become a law, would have done
more TO lessen crime than did the law
of 1903. He referred to the habitual
criminal act. Under this act ii is pro.
posed that when a man is committed
to the penitentiary of n state for the
third time, he is to be declared an in
durable and incarcerated for the re-
mainder of his life.
The theory of this law is that If
man has demonstrated that imprisOn-
ment does not cure him of criminal ten.
dencies, then there is nothing left for
society to do but protect itself by put
ting him out of the way. Humanity
rebels at executing him, and, therefore,
he must be left in prison. that he may
no longer prey upon society or repro
duce his kind. Many crimnologists
declare that executions and imprison-
ment do not have a deterrent erect,
thus. the fear of life Imprisonment
might not actually lessen the proper.
tlon of crime. but with the habitual
criminals gradually becoming incarcer'
ated there would be n perceptible de
crease in the number of crimes com
mitted.
Mr.. Hagar says that study of the
records at the prisons is very interest.
ing showing that majority of those
who commit crime are extremely ig
norant and unlettered.
