PHOENIX, ARIZONA. DEC. 10, 1905
Phoenix and the Capital.

The Tucson Star, which has for some years been unable to conceal a sentiment of irrltability whenever Phoenix is mentioned, exhibits a sar- castle glee over what It cOnceives to be the certainty of joint statehood and the consequent loss of the capital to this city. Phoenix will not miss the .capitaI-not much" chuckles the Star.
 That is right, Phoenix will no- miss the capital much, if it lose it at all. The Republican in its fight against joint statehood has not had in mind the possibility of the loss of the capi- tai. It would have no serious objec- tion to the removal of the capital to Tucson and the establishment of it Cn the present site of The Star office. From a financial point of view the capital has been of little advantage to Phoenix and from a moral point os view it has been Of no advantage at all.
 There is always an atmosphere of politics about a capital which has tendency to stifle business as will be observed by a contemplation of those cities in which capitals are located. There are few exceptions; for instnce, Indianapolis and Columbus, Ohio. Those cities have prospered as com mercial and manufacturing town, not in consequence of being capitals, but in spite of that handicap.
 But most cities which are so unfor- tunate as to nave been made capitals of states have become encrusted and have ceased to grow. A painful illus tration of the location of a capital up- on a town is Jefferson City, Mo. A city must be very resourceful if it can stand a capital without disastrous ef- fleets.
 There is building within few miles of Phoenix beet sugar factory which will be worth moro to this city than a dozen capitals. The Tonto basin dam will be worth more to Phoenix than a thousand capitals. We care nothing about the capital. Phoenix is too prosperous to be hurt a great deal by it, and so prosperous that the little money brought here by the bien- nial legislature and that distributed by resident officials is hardly apprecia- ble.
 The Republican believes that it is speaking with the authority of the people of this community when it sub mits the following proposition to Messrs. Roosevelt and Beveridge: Re move the capital from Phoenix to Tucson for the quieting of the Arizona Star and then drop this whole joint statehood business.

 The admission to the grounds will be free and all are invited. but the grand stand will be reserved for the stockholders of the association and their invited frien6s. The horsemen here, without exception have expressed an unqualified desire to help the as- sociation and stockholders in any way they can and have pronounced the track and grounds the finest in the country There is no doubt but that faster time will be made at this mat inee than was ever made before on an Arizona track by a harness horse.

TWO OPERETTAS.

Pretty and picturesque in every

which a fond parent poured 1er senti-
ments into the ear of the Reporter man
last night as the curtain at Ellis opera
house dropped upon the final scene
of Red Riding Hood" Certainly the
young folks acquitted themselves with
credit alike to the community which
encourages their talent, and to their
instructors, Prof. Simpson and his
wife. The professor took a pride in
the drilling of his pupils after they had
shown evidences of desire to master
the details of the two operettas. He
worked industriously and with success
full results, both from an artistic and
financial standpoint. For this he will
carry with him to the next point of

of the public and of the Order of Lions,
under whose auspices the operettas

There is testimony direct from the
members of the commission themselves
bearing on this point. Commissioner
Prouty gave out, on June 3, an ex
tended statement in refutation of Mr..
Meyers theory and backed it up by
citing cases and rulings of the COM
mission to show that lit (the commits
sion) has invariably declined to apply
the distance rule when competitive
conditions prevail" The commissioner
cited the last case decided involving
rates upon export traffic to Boston,
New York, Philadelphia and Balti
more from western points, in which the
commission held that the rate to the
port of export should not be deter
mined by distance, but should be SO
adjusted as to permit free competition
to all the ports.
The commissioner proceeded to dis
cuss this question at some length, in
the course of which he said: I'VE
must not be understood as holding that
the cost of transportation alone con-
trolls. Rates cannot be made with a
yardstick. Commercial conditions and
physical conditions and the condition
of the carriers themselves must be
considered. Few of the many misrep-
reservations which are being made to
influence public opinion at the pres
ent time have less foundation in fact
than this claim that if the commission
were to be. given power to fix a new
rate in place of an old one, found to
be unreasonable, it would be necessary,
under the law, to make interstate rates
upon a distance tariff basis
This statement of the commission
err, together with the cited instances
where interstate rates are not fixed on
the distance basis, is probably quite
as valuable a contribution to the dis
cussion of this subject as the specula-
tions of the professor from the Rock
efeller university.

DO YOU WANT LANDS?

We have had many applications IN
the past for scrip applicable to un-

scrip having that power were prohib-
tive. We can now locate unsurveyed
public land at a reasonable cost, COM
pared with the prices of scrip gener-
ally, and with absolute assurance as to
title. Good as Valentine. Many over
looked this opportunity when forest
reserve could have been used. This is
another chance.
We also nave forest reserve scrip,
for surveyed land, protected in the re-
peal act of March 3, 1905. 1t will never
be cheaper than it is today.

PUNISHMENT FITS THE OF'FENSE.

The unanimous action of the mayor
and city council in revoking the saloon
license of N r. Norman meets with
the approval of lawrespecting and
law-abiding citizens. 1t is an estab-
lished fact that Norman not only
loaned to Harry Schonleber the gun
with which Dudley Gully was killed
less than an hour later, but he denied
all knowledge of the affair in talking
to the chief of police next day and ad-
mitted the truth only wnen confronted
with Schonleber. His loaning the gun
might have been looked upon as par
donable indiscretion, but his attempt
to suppress information regarding a
supposed crime is a very grave Of
Tense. Moreover, it has been the COM
mon belief for many months that Nor
mans saloon made a business of SELL
ing liquor to minors. Norman has
twice within five years plead guilty to
the offense and paid fines. 1t is as
serted on good authority that only last
Sunday boys of 16 years of age were
sold liquor at Normans saloon and
later appeared on the streets in
maudlin condition. Normans disre-
gard of the law and defiance of decent
public opinion had in fact become so
fragrant and notorious that the mayor
and council could not we'll do other
wise than take summary action.
1t is possible that there are other
saloon proprietors VINO have also vio-
lated the law prohibiting the sale of
liquor to minors, and if so, the pun
ishment melted out to Norman should
be a warning to them hereafter to OBJ
serve the laws regulating their line of
business. The maintenance of bagnios
as annexes by saloons is a violation of
the law and an infringement of the
saloon license and the city authorities
should see that this abomination is
wiped out as we'll as the selling of
liquor to minors and to habitual drunk
ards.

AN OVERWORKED MAN.

Professor Hugo r. Meyer, of Mr..
Rockefeller's university, is a very ac-
tive man. His peculiar brand of ac-
tivity just now appears to take the
form of making addresses and Offer
ing testimony against the government
control of railroad regulation. OF
course. If Mr.. Rockefeller had not been
able to profit by railroad discrimina-
ton and secret rebates there would
probably have been no Chicago uni
versity, and Hugo Meyer would not
have been available for the purposes
for which he appears to be so useful
at present, but under the circumstanc.
es his activity seems to be justified on
the basis of paying debts of long
standing.
Mr.. Meyer has just been before the
hatlonal convention of millers in Kan
sas City repeating the testimony which
he gave to the interstate commerce
committee to the effect that it would
De quite impossible for the govern
hent TO take any hand whatever in
Inc making of railroad rates without
al once adopting the distance tariff
principle and depriving individuals
ana localities Of any advantage that
might accrue to them by virtue of
competition, geographic position or in
any other way. He makes the mistake
or not only declaring this theory but
oI asserting that the Interstate COM
merce commission mas generally acted
upon the distance tariff principle.
