SOUTHERN PAClfIC'S
 LINE INTO SONORA s-i Believed that Final Route for New Road Has Been
 Determined

Douglas, AriZ,, Jan. 31.-tSpecial.D-
 The Nichols surveying party which passed through Douglas to Agua Pri- eta some weeks since and of which nothing could be learned save that it was connected with the Southern Pa cifie railroad system, has been stead fly at work ever since it crossed the border. It will be remembered that there have been previously indicated three possible routes that the new railroad extension, for which they are supposed to be surveying, might take.
 The International-Ameri has at last ascertained the proposed route of the survey and the line which the new Southern Pacific extension will take.
 The Nichols party, consisting oi about twenty people have run the line from Agua Prieta to Rovalle. near Morales colony on the Babispe river Thence they are proceeding right on through Morales and down the Va qui river along the east bank. The present survey is along the prelim mary survey of last year, and bears every evidence of permanent sur vey previous to practica! railroad building This is in line with the pre- vious plan of -the Southern Pacific
 to finish its extension from Pearce Arizona, to Douglas and Agua Prieta The new line thus connected with th' ! main line of the Southern Pacific vii give it an outlet down the Yaqu liver to point on the Gulf of Cali fornia, near the Pacific outlet.
 This means not only new rail
 road for Douglas, bur direct railwa, ] communication with the Californi; | gulf ard the Pacific Ocean.
 The Nichols party is now working out from Rovalie, about forty-ffv
 miles south of Douglas.

Douglas, Ariz.. Jan. .3I.-tSpscial.l--
 This morning about o'clock in Ragtown the fourteen-year-old girl of Mrs. Trinidad Ochoa disappeared from her mothers house. The girls name is Conception Ocboa and she is thought to have been enticed away by one Francisco Pacheco, as it is claimed that he has fer some time had designs upon the girl.
 The mother of the child appeared in Judge McDonald's court this morn ing and swore out a warrant against Pacheco, charging him with all the crimes that come under the head of abducting a female under age. The warrant was placed in the hands of Constable Shropshire, who soon found the missing couple on Sixth street. He brought them both into court this

 G. l.. Andrews, the Douglas broker. is possibly the best informed man on Sonora public sentiment-or on what might be called official Mexican senti- ment-of any American doing busi- ness in Douglas. He is in everyday touch with the people. the officials and business interests of both sides of the border. He represents many large mining interests of Sonora and both his correspondence and person al contact keep him posted and very much on the inside.
 Mir. Andrews can therefore speak adEisedIy when he says that the American interests in Sonora have not been hurt and cannot be hurt by the late ruling of the Mexican govern ment. as to the acquisition by Amerl- cans of mining property in Sonora.
 Br. Andrews said: T know the feeling of the Mexican government to be kindly toward Americans and American interests in Sonora. The recent ruling only means that the Americans may operate to better ad- vantage in Sonora by the forming of Mexican corporations through which to transact their business with the government. It is a better way for all parties concerned; and more sat isfactory. It is also simple and very cheap. When the facts are under stood am sure Americans will be pleased with the new order of things, and surer of protection

owner of the Swansea mine of the Bocoachi district, has been in Doug las several days. He went to Albu- querque. New Mexico, yesterday and will return to this city in a few days.
 Mir. Tomlinson gives out good news to those who have been disturbed in their mind by the recent ruling of the Mexican government purporting D bar foreigners from acquiring min ing property in Sonora He is in re- ceipt of information from the secre- tary of the department of Fomento, City of Mexico. to the effect that the new mining law for the state of So- nora will be promulgated in about twenty days. The communication is full of assurance that the law will be favorable and liberal to Ameri- can prospeCtors and investors in So- nora. The assurance is given that the Mexican government is as friend ly as ever to Americans, and will con- tinue to encourage their investments and developments in the republic
 This bears out what all well-in- formed Americans and MexicanS in Sonora have said during the period of uncertainty which has followed the promulgation of the anti-foreign ruling. The InternationalLAmeric has taken this view of the matter from the first, and has done all in its power to feassure those contem- plating prospecting or investing in the state of Sonora.
 The result of this assurance will be good and prospecting will proceed as usual,

Concerning Negro Education.

Ii will perhaps astonish q great many
complacent and unsuspecting persons
in this part of the country to hear it said
that a very considerable number, il not
a majority, of the old time great South
ern slave holders were heartily opposed
to ~the institution" Such is the truth.
nevertheless, az every n familiar with
the inner history Of that section knows
full well. There is no room for argu-
ment. When we enter the domain of
~imperishable fact we shake from our
heels the dust of controversy. But a
still more novel and disturbing truth is
that long before the civil war certain
Louisiana landowners of the magnifi-
cent, patriarchal type conceived a plan
for educating" their slaves, 80 wise, so
enlightened, and, rs it proved, so sub
stantially beneficent, that modern pater-
nalism could advantageously bark back
to it at least in some particular respects.
To put it briefly, we may say that long
before Uncle Toms Cabin" saw the
light, and while as yet the great slave
holding magnates of the South regarded
slavery as an establishment beyond the
reach of social agitation or political
vicissitude, wise and kindly members Of
the ruling class had conceived and set
in operation a system whereby slavery
could be robbed Of all it's most repuIsive
aspects and transformed into an agency
OF e~xaltation. They were not doctri-
naires, these well meaning men, but they
loved their slaves and they felt it their
duty, as it already was their earnest wish,
to lift them out Of the mire Of degrade
ton and subsection, il such a thing were
possible. Thus it came about that

Chinese Prohibition OF Opium.

An imperial edict in China has pro-
hibited the cultivation OF the opium
poppy and the use Of opium in any form
except under medical prescription. This
is the second time that China has at
tempted TO free herself from the evils
Of opium. The first attempt resulted
only in fastening the trade upon her and
in involving tho country in a costly wal
with Great Britain.
That country did not propose TO sacri-
fee s5,OOo,ooO a year which the Indian
Government was making out Of the tax
on opium exports 10 China; and 90 wal
was declared in iS4o, q few months after
China's attempt to enforcs her pro-
hibitory decree. The result was that
China had TO throw her doors wide open
to Indian opium and pay q fine OF ss,ooo,-
600 for kicking up such q row..
The opium poppy thrivee in parts OF
China also, and the Government decided
to let the farmers grow all the opium
they pleased, though tho cultivation OF
the poppy in China had been prohibited
for many years. The Chinese crop finally
became so large that the sales OF the
Indian drug were cut down from sac, OO0,-
600 in 1870 to SIS, 900, 900 in 1890. The Chi
nese Trade Reports for 1905 said that the
lower cost Of Chinese opium was deoid-
eddy attractive and il was tending more
and more to supplant Indian opium.
The new decree against opium is the
direct result of the visit of the Chinese
commission to this country and Europe
last year. II was found that China
would have the moral support Of most
of the Western nations in any effort she
might make to mitigate the terrible
evils that the opium habit inficts upon
her people. China cannot prohibit the
importation Of opium, for India's privi-
lege to send the drug to Chinese mar
kets is secured by treaty; what China
is trying to do is to kill the market for
opium by prohibiting its s
1t is unfortunate that in renewing the
war on opium China must strike at the
root Of "a great industry which it has
done its best TO foster. II has promoted
the home cultivation OF the poppy in it's
desire to reduce the volume Of Indian
impOrtatiOns. The complete change of
policy announced by the new decree will
cause suffering for a while among many
thousands of farmers, but the great evil
cannot be abated without many pangs
OF Transformation.
The Chinese themselves say that opium
is the blacklist cloud that hangs over
their country. The medical missions
and nearly every town in China have at
least one opium retreat where attempts
are made to cure tho cravin for thedrug.
The habit has become so firmly fred
upon great numbers Of the people that
it cannot be eradicated without drastic
measures that will cause great suffering.
