No Change in Main Linz

St. Louis, Mo, Dec. 21.-Chief Engineer Morse, of the Santa Fe announced yesterday that second tunnel will be driven through Raton mountain, New Mexico. It will cost $5OO,OO0
 Work on the new tunnel will be started within thirty days and it is expected it will be completed in eight months. It will be 3,O7O feet long. It will parallel the present one under the mountain and will connect the ends of the second track which has been built to either side of the mountain. The walls of the new tunnel will be sixteen feet apart at the base and about foot wider at the spring of the arch the center of which will be twenty five feet above the floor.
 This announcement, following close upon the one that the Santa Fe would spend $25 100000 on inn provenents, is strong indication that the entire main line will be do lble tracked, and Is evidence that the company expects to make the present main line carry traffic to its fullest capacity, even though the Belen cutoff has been built Raton mountain has been one of the greatest obstacles the Santa Fe has had to contend with. Another tunnel would greatly facilitate the getting of trains through northern New Mexico.

WAS TO BE EXPECTED

The action of the Copper Queen company in invoking the aid of the courts in an attempt to defeat the action of the Territorial Board of Equalization in raising the assessed valuations of many of the great mining corporations, was no sur prise. Indeed this action has been confidently looked forward to as in line with the policy of the Phelps Dodge people.
 This company which, since its organization, has practically been exempt from taxation, has con- sistently fought every move looking to it's being forced to pay some slight portion of the taxes it was justly lia ble for and this latest suit brought in Cochise county is but d repetition of others gone before. |. Laying aside consideration of the legal phase of the question the suit instituted by the Copper Queen is sad commentary on the busi- ness methods employed by the latter day corporations that con- trol millions and pay other millions in yearly earnings and while de manding the protection of the law and the benefits of government, re- fuse to pay a few paltry hundreds in the way of taxes.
 The financial giants inveis h against what they are pleased to term the arraignment of the masses against the classes" they call it crime when some "agita tor'' brings to the public notice such travesties on justice as have been the enforcement of Arizona's tax laws in the past, but it is business methods such as the Copper Queen employs in the matter of taxation that have brought odium on great aggregations of wealth and will ultimately force respect of the law and justice upon them.-Gazette

Skidoo to Gambling in Arizona

Gambling in Arizona is to be stoppedl
 This sounds almost unbelievable doesn't it? Nevertheless it is true The gambler must go-Arizona has said it.
 A poll of the members of the next legislature shows that the majority favors the repeal of the statue licensing gambling and making it a lawful business.
 Three of the principal cities of the territory have adopted pro- hibitive licenses and succeeded in driving the gambler out. Tucson, Douglas and Phoenix could not make a misdemeanor of a business recognized by territorial statute, but at special elections they voted to a high license, which makes gam mbling so improbable that it cannot be conducted.
 Tucson was first. There lived Ezra c. Bartlett, dean of the gambling fraternity in Arizona. The front of his famous palace of chance, the Legal Tender, bears sign reading "closed."
 Douglas, a city on the inter national line. followed, and Phoe- nix, the capital, recently did like wise.
 The last general election in Ari zona surely sealed the doom of the gambler in this territory. Nc lobby which he can maintain will be able to pursuade legislators to break their promises to their con stituents.

How to Live

Be cheerful, 'tis but waste of time, Your woes and cares to tell; For these are found in every cline Where human lives do dwell. Not any heart but what has some Bright hopes which they could
 share So scatter joy where'er you roam And tighten every care. Be smiling; for, with every smile, You shed ray of light; 'Twere we'll worth while to give a
 trial
 And note the faces bright. A smile costs nothing, yet, bestows A pleasure so serene; [ 'Twere we'll to plant the seed, it And forms placid scene. Be faithful, for mere words are
 weak,
 To save soul from sin; Unless your actions, kind and meek The erring mind may win. Lead such life, pure and upright, A guiding star twill be, Let every deed so shed it's light Twill strenghthen all who see.

THE postoffice department has made a new ruling in the matter of renting lock boxes in postoffices. Heretofore it has been the rule to put cards in the boxes at the end of the quarter informing the holder that his rent was due, and to forfeit the box if he did not pay on the 10th. The new order is that ten days before the last day of each quarter postmasters are required to place bill bearing the date of the last day of the quarter in each rented box. If a holder fails to renew his right to his box on or before the last day of a quarter, the box shall then be closed and offered for rent and the mail will be placed in the general delivery.
