pressional exemption falls. and both roads can be assessed up to the valuation per mile placed by an elective board of equalization in California, viz: $14,O00. The Southern Pacific in Arizona has bonded indebtedness of about S35OO per mile. It's stock issue is $45, 900 more per mile. At the lowest market prices those stocks and bonds have sold, in times of panic in Wall street, (fortY eight cents on the dollar) the value of that great property at 2 forced sale is about S3S,000 per mile. So the present assessment is less than twenty per cent of the value of the property at forced sale. Yet every ranch, every home, every shop, every stock of merchandise in Ari- zona is assessed right up to all 1t will sell for, and sometimes a great deal more. So is every mine, un- less it be owned by great and powerful corporation.
 8. The need of regulation Of freights and fares by an elective railway commission, provided by a constitution, such as the Texas commission. That body exercises control of all the railways in an area extending half way from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean, and nearly one-third the distance across the United States from the mouth Of the Rio Grande northward. It regulates freights and fares in all that great area. Upon staples, in carload lots, it gives a rate as low as sixty cents her hundred from Galveston to El Paso. TO meet that the railways across Louisiana and Texas have to give a similar rate from New Orleans; and railways from Mis- souri river points have to give the same rates to Fl Paso, or suffer ex- clusion from the trade of great and growing region. But the moment 1t gets beyond the reach of the Texas commission the rate jumps up to almost prohibitive figures. Upon all freight from Missouri river points the rate on certain commodities to Phoenix Is $2.25 per hundred. Sixty cents of that are from Missouri river points to Deming, a distance ex ceeding 1900 miles, and one dollar and sixty-five cents are from Dem- ing to Phoenix, distance of less than five hundred miles. With an elective railway commission, acting under constitutional provisions, where the power of the Texas com mission ended, that of the Arizona commission would begin. and rates would be regulated upon about the same basis as in Texas. The Salt. River valley would save at least one dollar per hundred on every commodity coming from the east, and much more on some commodi- ties. The annual saving would make amends for the loss of one hundred capitals.
 Mir. Ephraim of Nogales, (men- toned hereinbefore) relates the purchase of carload of hay at Phoenix, where he paid $9 per ton It cost him, laid down here, $22| per ton. He could have brought it from California cheaper. An elective railway commission, with the proper constitutional powers, would prohibit such discrimination against home producers, and assure them fair deal at least in Arizona IL ~ -f

DID WONDERS IN PROMOTING
THE SUCCESS OF LEWIS
AND CLARK FAIR.
General Press Bureau Of Exposition
Acknowledges Courtesies Shown
In Letter of Thanks.

That the success Of the Lewis and
Clark fair, which will close Saturday,
was due in a large degree to the pub
licity given the exposition by the press
OF the country, Is the unanimous YER
dict Of the persons who managed the
great fair. AS an evidence of the ap-
probation Of the work that the news
papers and magazines did in exploiting
the exposition a letter has been sent
out to the papers on the Pacific coast
Of which the following is a copy:
Editor of the Evening Statesman:
Walla walla:-
Dear Sir: Now as the Lewis ami
Clark centennial exposition is rapid
ly drawing to a triumphant close. I
take great pleasure in Offering to you
my sincere thanks for your hearty
cooperation.
The western worlds fair has been an
unqualified success. The attendance
has been remarkable Visitors from
every portion Of the country have
come to Portland during the past four
and half months to see the two great
expositions-the Lewis and Clark CEN
tennial and the wonderful western
country. The eyes of the world have
been turned towards Portland, Oregon.
and the Pacific northwest, which fact
proves without doubt that the Lewis
and Clark exposition has successfully
accomplished it's primary object, that
of exploitation of the marvellous coun-
try west of the Rocky mountains.
Aside from the fact that the Lewis
and Clark exposition has been success.
full in accomplishing it's purpose, it mas
also been a financial success. The adj
missions and money collected from
other sources of revenue will enable
the directorate to pay fair per cent
age of the stock subscription. The at
tendance is rapidly climbing toward
the two million five hundred thous-
and mark which is likely to be reached
by October 18TH. The admissions
have gone ahead of those at the Trans
Mississippi exposition at Omaha, which
| heretofore was generally conceded to
have been the most successful of all
worlds fairs. This result Is more re-
markable when it is considered that
within a radius Of 500 miles Of Omaha
there live 100000 persons, while the
population within similar radius Of
Portland is only 100000. This fact
shows that many of the visitors came
from distant points.
Too much credit cannot be given
the newspapers and magazines Of tha
country for their aid in making the
western worlds fair a success. They
have supported the exposition gener-
ously from the first and printers ink
has again obtained the desired re-
suit.
1 desire again to thank you for the
assistance your paper has given in the
work of making a successful expos1-
ton.
Yours very truly,

Manager, General Press Bureau,

Raped City Attorney.

Glasford VINO had seconded Kirk
mans motion to refer the mayors mes
sage to. the judiciary committee
thought the council should have the
opinion Of the city attorney before any
action be taken. He thought it strange
that the city attorney was not present
at the meeting and declared that the
practice of getting opinions on city
matters from outside attorneys should
cease, especially when the council had
no idea what outside counsel was
charging the city for the services rend-
city attorney will not attend to bust
ness that it was time the council was
employing an attorney who would. He
said the opinion rendered by the may
or's attorneys might be all right but 1t
was establishing bad precedent to
be continually depending on outside
counsel in city matters.
NdyOI IluIlI odlN lAldI 1AC Wdo III Su
of calling the attention of the coun-
Gil to the fact that the way the city's
legal business was attended to was a
farce. In matters of Importance he
said it was necessary to secure the
advice of his own attorneys.
Refused to Put Motion.
The tilt between the mayor and Kirk
man and Glasford came when
the chair refused to put Kirk
mans motion to refer the
mayors message to the judi
ciary committee. The chair read that
section of the city charter which pro-
vides what course to pursue in dis
posing of a veto of the mayor which
says that the veto shall be rejected by
a. five-sevenths vote of the council.
GIasford contended that the council
had the right to consider the veto and
take as much time as needed. Mayor
Hunt ruled differently and still refuse
to put Kirkman's motion, but instead
put his own motion as follows: "Shall
the council sustain the mayors mes
sage?" Hickman appealed from the
ruling of the chair and on a vote, the
appeal was sustained by unanimous
vote.
Heads Win, Tails, You Lose.
Kirkman then put mis- motion again
to refer the message to the judiciary
committee and the mayor still refused.
Relations between the mayor and the
council at this period were strained
to almost breaking point and the
spectators eagerly drank in every
phaze of the controversy as 1t was ap-
parent the mayor was determined to
bring matters to focus one way or
another. The mayor still refused to
nut Kirkman's motion and offered his
own motion again in plain language:
"Is the mayors message to be sus-
tained or not?" Kirkman, Glas-
ford and Bridges refused to
vote. Bachtold voted yes, and

Mayor Hunt at last nights council
meeting, effectually squelched the at
tempt on the part Of several members
of the council to give the Warren Con
struction company a monopoly on paw
ing contracts in Walla Walla, by We
toing the two ordinances, awarding the
Elm and Spokane streets to the War
rem company without first advertising
for competitive bids on different kinds
Of pavement.
The message Of the mayor vetoing
the two ordinances involved several
members Of the council and Mayor
Hunt in sharp tilt on parliamentary
law and finally resulted in Kirkman,
Bridges and Glasford refusing to vote
when the mayor put his own motion,
whether or not the council was to sus-
tain the vetoes.
In citing his reasons for returning
the two ordinances unsigned, the may
or said that first they were against
public policy, in that they prohibited
competitive bidding, and second, that
they were invalid On all street i'm
provements he contended the people
are entitled to competitive bidding and
that to name only one kind of pave
ment, and that patented, owned and
controlled by one corporation, shut out
every other competitor.
Attached to the message was the
opinion of Sharpstein and Sharpstein
Mayor Hunts attorneys in the matter.
Immediately upon Clerk Reynolds
reading the message Kirkman moved
that the ordinances be referred to the
judiciary committee for consideration.
Glasford seconded the motion.
Mayor Hunt deurred and requested
that some action to either sustain or
reject the vetoes be taken. Kirkman
still contended that the judiciary COM
mittee should first consider the mes
sage and that inasmuch as there were
two paving companies in Walla Walla
seeking contracts that representatives
of the two companies should appear
before the committee So that the legal
side of the question could be threshed
out.

naively asking whether it took a FIVE
lsevenths vote Of the whole council to

AS only four had voted Bachtold's

ment. Mexican further relieved the
situation by asking which was the
most, three-fourths or fve-sevenths
| The answer was voted too difficult to
figure out.
The mayors veto of ordinance No.
1015 was then taken up and on the
mayors same motion: rs the mayors
message to be sustained or not?" the
vote stood: Glasford, Mexican and
Cox, no; Bachtold and Martin,
aye; Bridges and Kirkman re-
fusing to vote. The chair
declared that the veto had been sus-
tanned. In refusing to vote Bridges
said ne was heartily in accord with
! the mayors stand in the matter of
competitive bidding but as to the le-
gal side of the situation he thought
| the whole matter should be referred to
| the council to look into. AS the mat
ter was forced to an issue he de-
clined to take sides either way.
Mayor Hunts Message.
To the Honorable Council of the City
of Walla Walla, Walla Walla, Wash
ington.
| Gentlemen: 1 return herewith ordi-
nance No. 1912, without my approval,
for the following reasons:
1t is against public policy, and in
valid. 1 will not consent to sacrifice
the acknowledged rights of the peo-
pie for the benefit of any individual
or corporation. On all street improve
ments the people demand and are en-
titled to competitive bidding. To
name only one kind of pavement, and
that patented, owned and controlled
by one corporation, shuts out every
other competitor.
AS to the illegality of the ordi-
nance, I base my decision on the opin-
ion of my attorneys; they having made
careful research of the decisions of
many courts. They find the weight of
authority against the validity of the
ordinance so great that there seems
but little question as to It's il1egality.
Section 80 of our city charter pro-
vides that any freeholder may take the
contract from the successful bidder,
under certain conditions This would
be impossible if the contract was for a
patented pavement.
Respectfully,
GILBERT HUNT, Mayor.
| To the Honorable Council of the City
of Walla Walla, Wa1la Walla, Wash
ington.
Gentlemen: I return herewith Ordi-
| nance No. 1015, without my approval,
for the same reasons as given for dis
approving ordinance No. 1912.
Respectfully,
GILBERT HUNT, Mayor.
