twice before expressing an opinion"

your ideas unless they understand them
You can't say for sure. Sometimes an

A SANE CONCLUSION.


 :. Undoubtedly the most remark able utterance that emanated from official railroad circles is thai which will appear in an early issue uf "World's Work" from the pen of B.. F. Yoakum: chairman of the executive board of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railway. The article deals with railroad con ditions and suggests ways and means by which the present agitation against these corporations may be brought to an end and a perfect and satisfactory understand Ing be established between them and the people.
 Mir. Yoakum declares that as condition precedent to better feel ing the railroads should voluntari ly agree to federal control of capi- talization, publicity in accounts and operation and d complete and fair adjustment of the public's interests, =:
 Perhaps the: most striking part of the article is where the writer says that, "the tfTfis has. gone by whasn the railEoad;could go ahead apdlwoTk. out itsl,1arts, and carry. on it's operatians, Without consult ing the interests of the people.

INCREASE OF SIP, ,O0O,OO0

Easing his figures on partial returns received from the assessors of the thirteen Arizona counties, Public Exa miner Foster estimated that the total increase in the assessment of all the counties for 1907 over 1906 will be about $12 100000.
 Under the provisions of the Doran bullion tax law, the princi- pal mining counties in Arizona show marked increase, Cochise county leading with $4,OOO,OO0 more property on its tax roll this year than it had last year.
 According to figures that have been submitted by County Assessor Luke for Maricopa to Public Examiner Foster this county has $1 ,224,4 29 more property on the tax roll this year than in 1906.
 Foster does not attribute all this increased assessment in Arizona to the working of the Doran tax law, but states that part of it is due to increased prosperity in all parts of Arizona.
 Foster has heard officially from nine of the thirteen counties, and only in Apache and Navajo coun- ties is there a decrease. Apache has $22,OOO less than last year. and Navajo is $14,942 short of 1906.
 Next to Cochise, Yavapai county has the largest increase. It is .esrimated that Cochise will have about $17, 100000 worth of proper: ty on its tax roll this year, while Maricopa will have about SIS oO0,: 900. The increase on the Yavapai roll is $2,129,46O. ;. Posters figures are compiled for the benefit of Governor Kibbey that the latter may keep closely in touch with the situation in, all parts of the territory;. especially since the Doran-tax la w took from his hands the taxation of mines.
 Within the next ten days Foster expects to have complete and | accurate figures showing the in tereases and deficits in all parts of | Arizona and the :otaffor the. terri tory. His fgures:.fer- counties with [ increased assessments thus far are as. follows: ::::::: Cochise. $4,ooO,ooo;. :::coconino, $6S1 1903; Graham, $47Q,644; Mari copa, $1 .224, ,451.29; Mohave, $97, O63; Yavapai, $2,129,46O; Yuma, I $411. .625.

MILLIONS IN CACTUS

An El faSO Qlspatcn conveys ln- that a plant is soon to be installed in that city for the extraction of alcohol and ether from the cactus plant and the manufacture of fibre from the residue of the process.
 The success of the project will doubtless mean the building of similar plants at various points throughout the southwest. Tucson might we'll become interested in tht subject. With a. manufacturing industry of. such character es- tablished upon a commercial scale the planting of regular crops of quick growing varieties of cactus upon the waterless and now un- productive mesa land would add resource of great value to the city. Of course, the existing wild growth of cactus would suffice to supply such a plant for some considerable time, but eventually it would be found more profitable to plant acreage convenient to the factory site rather than te transport the raw material from a. distance. With the conversion of cactus to regular crop would come a selection of the varieties best adapted to the purpose and to this end the ex: periments already made with view to producing a spineless variety would assume practical Importance.
 The uses to which the various products could be put are mani fold. Probably the first in inn portance would be alcohol. A large supply. of denatured alcohol would go far: toward solving the fuel question which grows more perplexing to power users in Ari- zona as the supply of California crude. oil dwindles. CheaR: fuel; alcohol. would keep gas. engines al work in thousand places where high priced .gasolene .ss :.diatlElate cannot be used. It wouldcPum water to irrigate thousands of acres ef1ana, now valueless becanse un; productive. ManufaatnEipg-plants of manN- kinds could proftably operate in TpGson with +the aid oi cheap power from cheap. p.fuel. ::
 The seaof the fibre presents almost equally great possibilities. Tn pulp state it can be. given any desirable form and can be put to many of the: minor uses in which wood is now employed, beside the various special purposes to which it is alone applicable. There will doubtless be by-products which can be utilized profitably. As an example. the manufactured various kinds of cactus candy might be mentioned.
 The possibilities of commercia use of cactus have been written of before but until now nothing oi a practical nature has resulted. Il I Fl Paso is as successful as sanguine in the treatment of cactus Tucson will not be long in following the | lead. Tucson Post.
