The board of supervisors have taken steps toward the purchase of the north quarter section of the Livermore ranch for the purpose of building a county hospital. It is a move in the right direction. The location is desirable one, being within a mile of the city limits. A portion of the land is tillable and will give employment to the inmates in some capacity during a portion of the year. The distance from town will probably reduce the number of inmates, as a goodly number in the past who have gone on protracted trunks have found the hospital a good place to stay during their recovery from the effects of their spree. The hospital is now convenience to many who wish to spend short time in town. While it is not ex- pected that the hospital will ever become self-sustaining, it is ex- pected that the expenses will be somewhat reduced and no needy one be deprived of the benefits of the hospital on accounts of its location.

If the person who wrote an in teresting communication to the Sun last week, over the signature of Taxpayer, will send his name to this office the article will be pub lished. Not that the name is wanted for publication, but as an acknowledgement of good faith on the part of the writer. It is a rule of all newspapers not to publish articles of anonymous character or those where the writer signs other than his name. The writer must be known to the editor.

round-trip rate is nearly a three cent rate, and the majority of the travelling public realize that it is a reasonable rate for Arizona. But this same majority think it unrea- sonable to pay double this rate on the branch lines. The railroads claim that they cannot stand the proposed rate reduction and that it would be exceedingly inadvis- able to make the proposed reduc- ton, and at the hearing before the committee in Phoenix Monday the railroads made a strong showing why no reduction should be made, and the statement was made that the Phoenix and Prescott road never has paid beyond its expenses. Arizona needs more railroads, and ltis claimed that any reduction or interference with the present con ditions will retard railroad build ing, which is not desirable thing at present. It seems to be a busi- ness proposition for the legislature to contend with.

Several bills have been intro- duced in the legislature regulating railroads. Of course this has been done at every session for several sessions. Among the various bills which affect railroads is one mak- ing the passenger rate three cents per mile on all the railroads within the territory. On their own vio- lition the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific reduced the fare to four cents per mile on their main lines, still maintaining the former rate of six cents on their branch lines. Had they made the same reduction on their branch lines it is not likely that any bill making a further re- duction would have been intro duced at this session. So far as the main lines are concerned, the

We should live as one big family, and we be- lieve few towns can show up more progressive and intellectual fam lily. We have as few black sheep" in our place as any nook in the territory. When there is discord in the family there is little progress. When there is a united pull there is little we cannot ac- complish. Envy, jealousy and hatred pull us all down. Envy is a canker that gnaws at the heart and makes one sour, disgruntled and unhappy. Jealousy makes one unfair in passing judgment; hatred does not pay even from sordid point of view.
