Railroad Building In Idaho.

Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific in the extreme northern part
of the state, the Oregon Short Line

Idaho's development, has spurred
others to look into the state with
envlous eyes.
That the Rock Island is behind
one project for invading Idaho has
caused the Short Line to take i'm
mediate steps toward the repair of
it's fences, and that this will be
most vigorously prosecuted is now q
foregone conclusion. The new line
projected to Boise seems to have
substantial backing. and should it
once reach the state, the Hartman
lines would suffer.
The Short Line, as has been de-
tailed time and again, has three &C
tive projects on hand, the Minidoka
& Southwestern, the Malad branch
and the extension from St. Anthony.
Each would develop some good ter
ritory, but what is of greater i'm
portance. each would serve to hold
valuable right Of way, which might
prove good route to another line.
Then spur has been decided upon
east of Boise, three miles from the
natatorium. and while this will tap
a big lumber mill, it will hold the
entrance to Boise from that end.
The Mlnidoka & South western and
the Malad line could be connected

damage noted occurred on the Son. orc railwav-which it did not. On that line the roadbed is in as good condition as any other with rails of the same weight anywhere in the United States. Nowhere are em- bankments, waterways, bridges and all but rails better than on the So- nora railways and whenever a heav- fer traffic demands the 60-pound rails now in use will be displaced. And when the present condition of the roadbed of the Sonora railway is contrasted with the shocking ap- pearance 1t presented some years ago, great credit is due Manager J. A. Naugle, under whose supervision two streaks of rust and a right of way" have been converted into a real railroad--one that will com pare favorably with lines far more pretentious.

UNFAIR AND UNJUST.

Although J. A. Naugle has spent a few dobies in repairing the track between Nogales and Guaymas dur ing the summer, the track is in ve- ry poor condition. As an evidence of this on Tuesday evening trained for few minutes, and this light rain was enough to tie Mr Naugle's trains for some time, causing great damage to passengers on the road. If Mir. Naugle should concentrate his attention to this one small piece of road and try to keep it in the proper condition without attempt leg to raise eighteen millions for other enterprises, he might be a more successful manager Cana nea Herald.
 The foregoing is utterly without truth or foundation. There has been no detention on the Sonora railway since March last, when the Cananea railway, the Southern Pa cifc, and all the railroads in Ari- zona were interrupted by floods. The washout instanced by the Herr aid was in the vicinity of Fairbank, on that part of the Sonora route of the Southern Pacific which is under control of the superintendent of the Tucson division, and 1t was about seventy-fve miles from Nogales, the point where MT. Naugle's juris- diction terminates. And the water which fell within a few minutes at the point damaged would have tied up any railway anywhere in the world. A cloudburst is no respecter of railroads, just as yellow news paper is no respecter of persons.
 The attack made by the Herald upon MT. Naugleis both unfair and unjust. It would be so had the

RAILWAY ASSESSMENTS.

The recent action of the territor- rial board of equalization calling for duplicate assessment rolls from the various counties, with inteD- ton declared of raising assess ments of the properties of the great mining companies to forty millions of dollars, or thereabout which would be about twenty per cent of the actual cash value has raised a storm of indignant protest from all the subsidized newspaper organs of the mining companies, which all declare with unanimity that is edifying, and in style that indicates emanation from the same source of insplr;t- ton, that the proceeding is outra- geous in the extreme. and solely in the interest of the railway compa- nies, which are asserted by the or gans of the mining companies to own the territorial board, and con- trol absolutely its policy and action.
 That assessments of railway propery y in Arizona have been al- ways ridiculously low THE OASIS las consistently and persistently maintained. It has also with like persistence and conscience insisted that assessments of the great pro- ducing mining properties within the limits of the territory have been also ridiculously low. Now that the territorial board of equal ization has taken up one phase of the intolerable situation, and prom ises partial relief in that direction this newspaper is disposed to ap- plaud, and encourage the board in the good work inaugurated, hoping that another year it may be induced to turn its attention to the rail- ways and raise their assessments to somewhere near the actual val ues of the properties, as evidenced in the market prices of their secur- ities, at the lowest quotations in Wall Street.
 But should the board teke up the problem of equitable taxation of railways--i. e. assessments that would be equitable when contrasted with assessments levied upon small properties throughout the territory
 -it would find itself prohibited by an act of Congress from making such an assessment upon one of the great railways of Arizona-that part of the Santa Fe system form. erly known as the Atlantic & Pacific railway When Congress granted a charter and a subsidy for

empsed the property from taxation in the territories With that pro. vision in that charter. as territory Arizona cannot force collection of one dollar of taxes from the conn pany owning and operating that line of railway. But each year the Santa Fe company voluntarily pays into the territorial treasury a sum of money which Is about what would be the tax were the line in Arizona assessed at 5000 per mile The main line of the Southern Pacific, operating com peting line for through traffic, Is assessed by the board at ST,000 per mile-forty per cent more than the assessment voluntarily rendered by the Santa Fe. The inquiry natur- ally arises as to what would be the result should the territorial board advance the Southern Pacific as- sessment to a rate that would be really equitable for small property holders, whose scant possessions are assessed at full valuation. 1t is plainly apparent that while the main line of the aSouthern Pacific l in Arizona is assessed at but about fifteen per cent of its actual cash value Gas shown in the lowest mar ket quotations of its stocks and bonds), 1t is inequitably assessed and taxed in contrast with it's prin- cipal competitor. Should the ter torial board raise the assessment of the Southern Pacific to the same rate per mile as that levied in Cal ifornia -$14,0 ,000--would not that corporation have just ground for l a successful appeal to the courts, pleading unconstitutionality of the assessment as unequal2 For such an assessment contracted with the Atlantic X Pacific self-imposed as- sessment, would be unequal and
 unjust. Whether the courts would
 hold that under the peculiar situa- ton of legal exemption from taxa tion enjoyed by one line, fair as- sessment of another would be une- qual taxation, is an open question. It IS one which would take time and expense to determine. The inequality of the present assess ments is not sufficient to provoke test. To double 1t would surely l do so.
 The foregoing shows plainly that the problem of railway taxation in Arizona is somewhat complicated. But there would be one way toun- ravel the tangle and make all rail- way property subject to equal and equitable taxation. When Arizona 
 ceases to be territory the Con- gressional exemption from taxation given the Atlantic 6 Pacific will jall. When Arizona becomes q
 state that line will have to stand
 upon terms of equality with all the
 other railways in the common

When the surface grew hot tho sub
way grew hotter, and in the historic
July furnace days the ''hole in the
ground"-a long hole now, running at
last to the lower end of the city-be::
came simply unbearable. The cry that
went up from the disappointed New
Workers was one almost of rage. That
the subway, after all the insular sadul-
alton it had received, should turn
traitor to it's complacent patrons was
too much. The cry of complaint was SO
unmistakable and the falling off in
patronage was so unmistakable, that
the management bestirred itself. As
an example we may take the Forty
second street station, where 80 big elec-
URIC fans are hustling the air. More
tnan this, vents have been cut to the
surface through which powerful mo.
TORS are sucking the lamp-heated air
and generating new currents Of
draught. The trains, too, are opened
from end to end. AS a result of these
preliminary moves-and they are I'M.
derstood to be but preliminary-there
Is q decided improvement in the at.
mospheric condition of New York's I'm.
foreground service. Before another
summer comes round it is devoutly to
be hoped that. further practical steps
will be taken; for it will be very, hard
for New York to give up the notion
that it's subway is unreservedly a good
thing. It is the usual sarcasm about
the metropolis that it will be "a good
town when it is finished"
The Virginia enterprise. [volume] (Virginia, St. Louis County, Minn.) 1893-19??, 1905-08-18

United States who wish to be made
beautiful do not come to New York,
otherwise how do so many beauty
makers thrive here? say thrive:
they at least find occupation. This is
not to speak of complexion doctors and
halr-dyers. Beauty-makers now have q
soul above freckles. They halt not be-
fore the awkwardness of nature. They
fold back ears, lift, lover, shorten OF
lengthen noses; they smooth out wrin-
kles; put dimples in cheeks or chins;
mend eyebrows; round out necks and
shoulders; and they do tor start to
DO 1t-While you wait. They also buy
and sell features. If you have lost an
ear or nose, your case is not by any
means hopeless. To be sure you must
have little money if you wish to be
repaired, but with the money your
course is clear. The beauty doctor will
advertise for some one ready to part
with the feature you lack, and you will
have to be grown to this person for
While until the part which used to be
his and is to be yours becomes securely
fast to both of you. Then it is cut from
him, and there you are.
Unfortunately the game does not al
ways go smoothly. Two or three suits
are now pending on behalf of people
who have not been beautiied according
to the claim, or who say they have not.
There is much complaint by many who
are unwilling to accept the publicity
OF suits, but who plainly are not beau
tlful enough yet Sometimes, it an
pears, wrinkles are taken out and
scars remain where no scars were to
be. Noses are Strengthened, but at ap-
palling loss of comfort, and with marks
as disfguring as natures original awk-
ward lines. Thus the beauty doctors.
for all their skill, are having a hard
time of it just now, never quite so hard
it might SEEM and the trials set for
the early fall are likely to bring into
interesting relief the question of the
responsibility to be assumed by those
who promise to successfully mend the
human countenance.
