beds of the raw material, there is not
a particle of doubt. AS to the cost Of
manufacture. he says he can rely upon
the statement that the cost will not
exceed one-third or one-half hat of
the Colorado product. leaving a large
margin for the cost of marketing as
compared with the established trade
and cheaper freight rates on the Col
orado product. He believes, as do 9TH
ers, that the Colorado concern has an
expert here for the purpose of devel-
oping the beds found on the plain, and
that a cement works of considerable
size will result.
The state chemist, Prof. knight, and
his assistant, Prof. Moudy, have lent

washington, Jan. 1.-THE Philip
pine tariff bill having been gotten out
of the way last evening, passing the
house by a large majority, the railroad
rate bill is now the feature before con-
gress.
The senate seems to be at sea on this
question. The Dolliyer bill proves in
adequate. Intended as a means to ex-
pedite the determination of freight
rates, it is found to be ineffective in
many particulars, n a new MEASURE
will have to be drawn.
Statehood still seems a vital topic.
This morning Babcock, Minor and Taw-
ney claimed to have enrolled seventy
republicans against the program TO
force Arizona into the union. The OPP
position to the statehood, therefore, is
stronger than ever before. The presi-
dent is very much interested in favor
of the proposition, and is reported to
have said: The railroad and mining
interests of Arizona are eXerting all
their influence to defeat statehood be-
cause they are beneiciaries of a lax
system of taxation in the territorial
government"
