Value of Railroads.

The results of an investigation into
the actual commercial value of the
railroad property of the country have
just been given to the public IN the
form of a census bulletin. The pur-
pose of the investigation was to md
out how much money is invested in
the railroads and how much the prop
erty is worth 1t was found, for one
thing, that the roads are not worth
as much by more than billion dol
lars as the amount of their capitaliza-
ton and debts, the figures being SILL
244.S52. 900 for the value and $685.
990,25S for stock and indebtedness
The difference is accounted for by
the fact that many of the railroads are
overcapitalized. A great deal of wat
er has been poured into their pre-
ferred and common stock. Pennsyl-
vania stands at the head of the list OF
states in railroad values. The rail-
roads of the state are commercially
worth $1,42O,6GS,OOO. No other state
shows a valuation as high as a bill
lion Delaware stands lowest with
only s17,2S5,O00.
The valuations given are of railroad
property purely. They do not include
private cars and car lines. such as
the Pullmans and the refrigerator and
fast freight cars. The Fullmans alone
are worth s51,OOO,0OO and the private
cars show an aggregate value of S12,-
100000 If they were added to the
other list, and they might properly be.
the grand total would be considerably
in excess of eleven and one-half bill
lions of dollars.
A comment on the bulletin says:
I'm all the states and territories ex-
cept Connecticut the assessed valua-
tions of the railroads are less than
their estimated commercial values. In
that state the total assessed valuation
is 1144 per cent of the commercial
valuation. In Arizona, on the other
hand. the assessed valuation is but 81
per cent of the commercial value, in
Oklahoma but 1872 per cent, in Iowa
but 1871, in Kansas but 1863. The per-
centages vary from this size up to 40
per cent in Michigan and 63.S in Illf-
nois.
Apparently In all the states, ex-
cept, perhaps. Connecticut and one or
two others, the railroads are treated
with great fairness and are not re-
quired to contribute in any larger pro-
portion than other persons and corpo-
rations doing business in the commun-
ity TO defray wing the expenses OF gov

Another Richmond dem ocratfc paper
of character and influence, the News
Leader, sizes up the republican con-
vention as a body of respectable and
responsible citizeas. 1t remarks that
the democratic party i'm Virginia has
'unquestionably fallen into shabby
condition" 1t expresses a hope that
the appearance in the field of a really
formidable opposition may have the
happy effect of forcing the party to
brace up. clean house, nominate it's
best men. and win elections ON the
merits rather than by cold -blooded,
degrading and fragrant tricks with
ballot boxes"
The esteemed Norfolk vfrginian-
Pilot insists that the state is still
safely democratic and sure to remain

VALUES STILL GOING UP
The Board Of EquaIizatior Now Deal
ing With Live Stock.

The territorial board OF equalization
continues to supplement the work eff
the county assessors and the county
boards of equalization. There is a
general tendency to move things up
ward. Yesterday the board dealt chief
ly with live stock, all Of which was
found to have been returned at too
small figures. IT was decided to eis-
vate the prices of range horses in
Pinal and Yavapai counties to $40 and
a uniform valuation of sac was fixed
on work horses throughout the terri
tory. The board is still not quite
through with the stock element of the
territory's wealth but may be able to
fiHish that part of it's work today.
It was thought that the matter Of
increasing or at least of equalizing the
assessments of improvements OH
mines would be disposed of yesterday
but the subject was not taken up at
ALL That is about the hardest question
the board has before it.
No one has attempted a close ealcu-
lation but it is thought that when the
board gets through the total valuation
of the property of the territory for
taxable purposes will be between $685.

A New Day In Virginia.

The state convention of the Virginia,
republicans at Roanoke last week was
peculiarly a white mans convention"
and it evidently made an impression
on the minds-not to say the nerves
of the Virginia democrats. The edi-
torial pages of the big newspapers
supply that. The Richmond Times
Dispatch speaks of the convention as
the ablest, most respectable republi-
can gathering of the sort ever seen in
Virginia. 1t speaks of Judge Lewis,
the republican nominee for governor,
as "a man of ability and character
who is deservedly popular and COM
mands the respect and confidence of
all classes of Virginia citizens" 1t
reminds everybody concerned that the
negro can no longer be used as a
DOGGY to brighten Virginia white men
into voting the democratic ticket. 1t
prints a letter from a state senator,
A. 5. Thomas of Lynchburg, who says
he'll vote the democratic ticket if it's
an honest, clean ticket, and continues:
81 serve notice now on the political
cratic party in some parts of the state
that fraud vitiates all contracts, and
that If they steal the nomination, or
adopt corrupt practices in the forth
coming primary, l shall feel free to
join hands with the decent people of
Virginia to break the hold of political
knaves on the affairs of the common
wealth." And our valued Richmond
contemporary says on its own ac-
count
The democratic party has a stiff
fight on its hands and should recog-
nize and accept the fact. The party
must be on its good behavior. and es-
pecially must the managers be care
full that the forthcoming democratic
primary is conducted so fairly that
there will be no suspicion even of
fraud or trickery. There are
many other democrats like Mr.. Thorn
as The political thieves will wreck
the party If they are permitted to
manipulate the ballots. They must at
all odds be kept out of the polling
places, or, as we served notice several
days ago, the democratic party will
be in danger of getting the worst
thrashing it ever received. The public
mary any such outrageous frauds as
were practiced in the Richmond pri-
mary. This is a warning which the
party managers will ignore at their
peril

SIMPLE REMEDY
FOR CATARRH.
just Breathe HoneI -Four Times a

II few years ago someone had said
you can cure catarrh by breathing air
charged with healing balsam, the idea
would have been ridiculed, and it re-
NAMED for that eminent Investigator,
K T. Booth, to discover in IyOmel this
method of cure.
Hyomei has performed almost mir
acuous cures of catarrh, aud is to day
recognized by leading members of the
medical profess as the only advertised
remedy that can be relied upon to do
lust what it claims The complete out
fit of Hyomei costs 81 90, and consists
of an inhaler, medicine dropper, and a
bottle of Hyomei
Breathe Hyomei through the inhaler
for few minutes four times day, and
it will cure the worst case of catarrh.
1t soothes and heals the mucous mem
brane of the air passages, prevents ir-
ritation and effects complete and last

In Skowhegan there are scores of well
known people who have been cured of

the Homeopathic Medical Society of the
county of New York la only one of

said his effort met with defeat. In that
Gaze the disease was far advanced
DR.. Dieffenbach described his method
of treatment in detail. 1t consists il
dipping celuloid or hard rubber rous
into so utons of salts of radium These
rods are then inserted into incisions
made in tumors. The effect of the
radio-actiyitr, he said was TO DESTROY
diseased TISSUES. There are some hope
less cases where the growths have
spread over large areas.
Prof Hugo Leiber of New York city
has been experimenting in injecting
radium into the tissues without the use
OF rods or sheets of celluoid He said
that three cases of tumor and cancer
had been treated with remarkable sue

in medical knowledge. Though at pres
