Want Better Freight Rates.

B A. Packard, leader in the move ment to get better freight rates, ad- dressed the board of trade this morn - ing, outlining to them the plans of the Arizona Cattle Growers association, and explaining that $1O.000 will be necessary to carry the discriminations made by railroads in Arizona before the interstate commerce commission.
 Packard promised that the Cattle Growers association will contribute $1 ,OOO of the $lO 900 necessary, and that several individuals have promised to subscribe larger amounts, among them being one wholesale dealer who stated some time ago that he would give as much as S1,O0O.
 To get the concerted assistance of ali the commercial organizations in Arizona cities which believe they are being discriminated against by the railroads, Packard asked that the board of trade appoint committee to tal e the matter up by correspondence. I'm migration Commissioner J. w, Cren- shaw and Elliott Evans were appointt d to look after this end.
 During his remarks Packard told of several inequalities that now exist in the freight business. one of them be- ing that it costs $l27 to ship a car ot cattle from Phoenix to Los Angeles, while Texas cattle raisers can ship cattle by the carload to Los Angeles for SIPS 40 per car. They ship through Maricopa and from points 400 or 500 miles further distan1 from Los Angeles than Phoenix. Phoenix De- mocrat.

 The Immigration officials under Capt. Webb are still gathering in the Orientals that persist in getting lost in the west. Last week eight Japanese were taken by Inspector Murphy to S'n Francisco for depor rtatIon. On Wednesday last three more were taken by inspector Bishop to the same place and for the same purpose. Two Koreans were recently captured near St. David, on the San Pedro. This sa ne pair of wlly Orientals are per sistent immigrants. The arrest the other day makes the fourth time they have been caught in this country. They come in by way of Mexico and were deported back to that country from Ell Paso, three tigles. Capt.

Willie Barnett a Hero.

A desperate fight between a badger especially trained and bull IcgI Strange as it may seem such was the combat last evening before the Ford Badger Club in Phoenix and neither Chief of Police Moore nor Sheriff Hayden interfered. It is probable that they were not aware of the fight, says the Tucson Citizen of May 27.
 It was about 8:30 o'clock last ev- ening when the word was passed that the battle would be brought off. A few Phoenix men, the Tucson ball players and several travelling men were let in on the secret. Silently, in order not to attract too much attention they filed into the pit.
 The betting was free and J. IT. Hefner, president of the Athletic club, offered to bet $100 on the badger. He was Immediately taken and the betting ran high. Then came an argument as to who should pull the 'badger. ;"
 Various men were suggested, but they were turned down owing to the fact that they had bet on the out come. Finally William P. Barnett was selected.
 John Beck, who was refereeing fix ed ten feet as the distance for the rush.
 It was finally arranged after much argument among travelling men pres ent that MT. Barnett should pull the badger out of the barrel and give him a good start.
 He did his part to perfection as in nocents will and the conflict went to a terrific end. No decision was given as the officers rushed in and stopped the bout when it was becoming inter esting.

BiIi Nye'S Cow .

Bill Nye, the humorist, once had a COW to sell and advertised her as fol- lows:
 Owing to my i'll health I will sell, at my residence, in township ninet cen, range eighteen, according to the gov ernmental survey, one plush raspberry COW, aged eight years. She is of un- doubted courage, and gives milk fre- quently. To man who does not fear death in any form she would be a great boon. She is very much at tached to her present home with a stay chain, but she will be sold to anyone who will agree to treat her right, She IS one fourth short horn and three quarters hyena. 1 will also throw in a double- barrel shotgun, which goes with her. In May she usually goes away for week or two and returns with a tail red calf with wabhly legs. Her name is Rose. l would rather sell to a non resident" :" Judges Library.

M. p. Wright at cananea.

Denouncement of the Harnet, com prising 26O pertenencias, was made the first part of last week by Marshal! P. Wright. This ground is a wedge between Greene Oananea and the Duluth Announcement on the north of Arizpe Development. In acquiring the property Mir. Wright is consider ed to have obtained piece of ground of much merit. Prospecting has shown porphyritic iron cappings of much extent and of character which has made ore in other portions of the district. Within half mile of the southern portion of the ground is the new Arizpe Development road, af fording much in the way of transpor- tation advantages from the beginning, g, for construction of a connecting link with the Arizpe road will be a matter of easy engineering. Location of the denouncement is put at miles south east from the city. MT. Wright has had prospecting party on the prop erty for the last week and will continue it until opportunity has been had to report in thorough manner. It is then his intention to put diamond drill outfit on the ground and exploit it in that manner until such time as sink ing and other development work can be taken up. The Harnet denounce- ment closes the territory to the north of the Arizpe Herald.

A False Report.

An alleged dispatch from Ca nanea printed in the Miner at Bisbee Monday evening (May 13) reported a rumor, utterly unfound- ed in fact, that Colonel Emilio Kosterlitzky and Colonel Fenochio were believed to have been mas sacreed with their commands by Yaqui Indians during last week. At the time of the publication Col. Fenochio was at his home in No gales and Colonel Kosterlitzky was at Magdalena. Publication of the report occasioned for a brief while the deep anxiety of thousands of friends the two distinguished of ficers have in Arizona and at points in Sonora which the report reached. These were greatly re- lieved when denial of the truth of the report was made on Tuesday in the Bisbee Review. Not only do Colonel Kosterlitky and Colonel Fenoc:lio enjoy the warm friend ship of thousands because of per sonal attractions but they have as well the esteem and admiration of all because of their widely known ability as thorough military men and gentlemen of the highest honor and courtesy. - Canauea Herald.

A Strange Case.

Without doubt the strangest case of suicide ever committed in the Ter ritory of A rizona was that of D. A. Martin on Monday night, wheu, after preparing for bed, he took a book of poems, and after reading one which compared the shortcomings of this mundane sphere to the beauties of the hereafter, dissolved some cyanide of pota in glass of water, and after drinking about half of the portion .y down on his bed as if to sleep, aid was found there dead esterday morn. ing by the Iandlady of the house - Bishec Review, May 9.

A Plea for the Birds.

There is no legal obstacle in Ari- zona to the killing of doves at any season Of the year, but there ought to be law of conscience. At this time, the birds are nesting and their nests are full of young. To kill the old birds under such conditions is but lit tie less than murder There is not a state in the Union, outside of Arizona, that does not protect it's birds through out the nesting season. In Arizona, through some overt act of the legisla- ture, it is kill, kill the whole year round. Where there is no law, public sentiment should step in and create one. It is not the birds killed that appeal so much to the humane as it is the number of young ones that this very killing leaves to die of starvation in their nests. At this season of the year the destruction by gun is far reaching, and at least half the dead birds in the field mean double the amount of dead in the nests. Let the pernicious habit of guaning during the nesting season be stopped. Tucson Fo3t.
