Railroad Man S View

In an interview a prominent railroad official said:
 President, Roosevelt in his recent message to Congress, expresses the opinion that at present it would be undesirable If it were not impractlc. able finally to clothe the Interstate Commerce Commission with general authority to fix railroad rates, but he recommends that the Commission be vested with the power to fix and, pend. ing judicial review, to enforce a reas- onable rate in place of a given rate found to be unreasonable.
 If the Commission were clothed with the general authority thus condemned by the President, to fix all railroad rates, it is clear that it would, in ex. ercising that power, charge only those rates which 1t regards as unreasonable. It is equally clear that the Commis- sion would have and exercise exactly the same extent of power under a grant of authority to fix and enforce a specified rate in place of specific rate found to be unreasonable. Un- der the narrower language the Com mission could in single proceeding investigate and correct as many rates as 1t chose. and it could do no more
Bisbee daily review., 1905-01-15

if the grant Of power were in the general terms. The Commissions rul- ings would be just as final in the one case as in the other, and the character of judicial review practically the same
 Under the present law the Commis sion never claimed any rate making power beyond that of substituting reasonable rate for a specific rate found, on all investigation, to be un- reasonable, and yet in single pro ceeding it undertook what amounted to a reconstruction of the rates on practically all the traffic moving from the cities of the east and middle west to all the southern states, and the Supreme Court declared that if the Commission had the power claimed as to a single rate, it had the power to change every interstate rate in the United States in a single proceeding
 If, then, the Commission is to be given the rate making power, the sit nation should be met and facts dis cussed. If the Senate Committee in 1886 was right and President Roose- welt is right at the present time in declaring that it is undesirable and impTacticable to give the commission the general rate making power, the

Weather and Crops

During December the weather was generally favorable for agricultural and stock interests. Light rains feil over the territory in the early and latter parts of the month, but with the exception of the southeastern counties there was a deficiency of precipitation. The last few days of the month were Icold. Frosts occurred in southern counties. and in the eastern and north ern counties there was some snow on the moutains.
 The crop conditions are normal in the southern and central sections of the territory. In the southwestern section alfalfa and other seasonable crops made good growth until the cold days near the end of the month checked plant development In the northern section cry little planting has been done on account of the dry weather. and all seeded crops are dor mant. In Cochise, Graham, Maricops and Pima counties grain and garden truck are growing nicely. Flowing and seeding are still in progress in southern sections. and the soil is in fine condition for spring crops. In Maricopa county marketing of citrus fruits continues. The yield of oranges and pomelos is above the average and the quality is excellent.
 The ranges are generally well sup. piled with feed. Ranges and stock

 An incident that occurred last week on Main street has more significance than the mere majesty of the law.
 A troupe of players had come to town, aud late in the evening some oi them, women as well as men, conclud- ed they would see a mining camp as Vt is. This does not mean that they look an excursion into the mines.
 Oh, Nol They went to see some ef he other sights that are invaTiable .ccompaniments to a mining camp. That is, those resorts for gambling and drinking that are warm freside" to many a homeless man.
 Well, these women and men were being entertained quietly and politely snjoying the no doubt strange sights. Others were enjoying it, too. The lact of a woman being in a saloon, .onlokers though they be, attracted at tention, and people were jostled and crowded just to get a glimpse of them. Men rushed in and crowded up to the windows to gape and stare and ex- clami.
 Then an officer of the law came along and sent those girls home, or back to their hotel rather. He told them the law forbade women in saloons. Of course he found out later that his rem dering of the law was not exact, but no matter; the fact remains they were sent away and the crowd dispersed. wonder what was the real true cause Of the curiosity of the men on the street, and later the prompt enforcing of what he thought was the law, by the officer? I think it was this: They were shocked, every mothers son of them. A man has a strange philoso- phy, all his own. No woman's mind can quite gather all of it in. In the first place most men are reasonably certain that most women are better morally than they. Tn the second place they think they are wfser than
Bisbee daily review., 1905-01-15

the women, as no doubt they are. In the third place they are full of an mate chivalry toward womenkind, and DO matteI how steeped in the sicken- ing slime Of the half-wOrld, there yet remains their ideai Of a woman and 2 woman's proper sphere, and this ideal Is capable of shock. Perhaps most, if not all of the men who watched these women taking in the sights of that saloon, were men whose lives are, as the world goes, moral, and men whose hands and brains know the blessings of daily labor. It was not mere idle curiosity that made them Istare-gape. They no doubt disap- proved of women in saloons, and, like the officer, were convinced that, not Ionly by their own standards of women they were debarred. but also debarred by a city ordinance.
 A man has strict lines drawn over which a woman may not pass. A man may cross and recross those lines as much as he likes and as much as he cares, and as for as retaining a certain responsibility is concerned, he is unharmed Here we are not going into the ethics of the thing, merely dwelling a little on that mans strange philosophy, and the law a mans nature has laid down for a woman. respect and admire him for that law. It may seem out of joint and lacking sym metry, and even justice, but it is his attitude toward his superior. Not his superior in brain power, either, fer the brightest, deepest woman was never as bright or deep as the bright est, deepest man. But he's one little freside goddess, whether it be wife. mother sister or sweetheart, and the moment that godddss descendsfrom her pedestal. then we see these men shocked, and staring as at some strange vfsitant, and when he sees really what she is, he does the best he can to put her back where she step pd from, just as that officer did

PUBLIC LANDS. !.

received 8 strong protest against the Martin bill from Hon. Wesley A. Stuart. of Sturgis. s. D., a prominent advocate of national legislation and active in promoting the government ir rigation project at Belle Fouche. s. D.
 MT Stuart asserts that this land is of a rich fertile character that will grow Rocky Ford" melons and Greeley Potatoes" and that one coun- ty included holds the highest record of sacchaTine beets. MT Stuart re- cites the following dialogue with prominent local stockman: Well. Mir Stuart. I understand you are against our $40 aere homestead bil?"
 Yes. I am. decidedly"
 Well. now. Mr Stuart. if We can only get this bill through, young fel- lows can get s4OO to $500 for selling their homestead rights and the stock men in this country can have a chance Ito get a couple of townships apiece and run a few hundred head of cattle within our own fences"
 The results of the passage of this bill. Mir. Stuart writes, would be to turn over to a few stockmen. through their ability to buy mp homestead rights all the public land and absolute- ly prevent settlement He denounces it as a proposed legal graft and one which will seriously interfere with gov, ernment irrigation projects.

 COMPANY LAUNCHED
BEFORE ALLOTMENT OF SHARES HAS BEEN DECIDED STOCK
 QUOTED AT 35 CENTS.
Amount of First Issue Has Been Over subseribed-At Property Two Drills Are in Operation to Test Formation and Location of Proposed Shaft.

The stock in the Denn-Arizona com. .pany was quoted in the Copper coun- try at 35 cents a share, according to reports received at the office of Brok- Ter Graf in this city.
 It is an evidence that the Copper country people think favorable of the ground adjoining the Saginaw as well as the Bisbee investors. This advance come before the stock has been is- sued or even allotted. It is known that the amount of stock offered in this company has been many times over- subscribed and that applications are now in from Bisbee to take more than half of the allotment
 At the property of this new conner into the Warren district two drill holes are being sunk under the direction Of Mr. Pattison. superintendent of the Shattuck & Arizona, which is practi. cally owned by the same crowd as the Arizona-Denn company.
 The object of this drill work is to test the formation in that locality and the result of these tests will justify the location of the shaft, if the show ing made in the drill holes justifies more extended developmnt.
 In all it is proposed to sink four drill holes on the Denn ground and the work has now been contiued for thirty days. Two drill holes are at present in operation which will be sent through the formation for a distance of not less than one thousand feet.

J. $. Palmerlee, General Manager of the Huachuca Development company, operating in the Huachuca mountains, arrived in the city Thursday. direct from his property. Development work has been discontinued for the very good reason that enough ore has been blocked out to justify the erection of a seventy-five ton plant, the build ing of which will be commenced short ly.
 MT. Palmerlee estimates that there is enough ore in sight that gives values of s9 per ton and over. to feed such plant for the period of three years. With this showing already accom- plished the company propose to pro ceed to the erection of reduction plant.
 The plan adopted by the directors for raising sufficient funds for this purpose is to issue thirty thousand shares of the development stock at S2 per share, open to subscription of the present stockholders only. When this issue has been subscribed for the company will be organized as a min ing company and a bonus of one and one half shares of mining stock will be issued for every share of develop ment stock and the capital stock in creased to $25O,O00. Circular letters announcing the plans of the company will be mailed to the stockholders of the company this week. The directors of the Huachuca Development compa- ny are James G. Cowen, s. W.

 The water supply is more plentiful for irrigation and stock purposes, ex cept in the northern section of the territory where water for stock is scarce. In Coconino county cattle are driven long distances for water. In Graham county the precipitation for the month amounted to about two inches. being very helpful to stock in. .terests.
 Stock of all kinds are generally in good condition. Range cattle are co- ing well. Ranges in central and southern counties are sufficiently sup piled with feed and water. and even in the few northern localities where scarcity of water continues, feed is plentiful and cattle are doing well.

Washington, Jan IA. (Special)-A phase of the western land question which has thus far attracted but little is the evident effort being made by certain interests to practically annul the old homestead law and substitute therefor a GAO sore or square-mile homestead. At the tail end of last session such a law was passed apply ing to Western Nebraska. This ses- sion two similar bills have been intro dueed by Representatives Brooks and Martin applying to Colorado and the western portion of South Dakota re- spectively.
 It is charged that these measures are in the interests of stockmen and will prove a serious detrimeut to real settlement and development The Nebraska law contains a provision that in case a man had already filed on 160 acres as a homestead. he should be entitled to take up an adjoining com plementary 4SO acres. and the state ments came from Nebraska itself that cowboys had in advance secured fil- ings on 160 acre tracts and were thus able 10 take the additional 4S0 acre tracts for the benefit of the employers while the real settlers look second chance.
 Chairman Lacey, of the Public Lands Committee of the House, has
