PRUDHgMME'S AFFAIR
 MY BE ADJUSTED
A Petition In His Behalf Is Being Generally
 Signed,

DOUGLAS. March 13.-fSpecial)- A petition already signed by about five hundred voters of Douglas, ad- dressed to the city council, requests | that body not to act on the recent re- port of the street and alleys commit tee in the matter of Street Commis- sioner Dad" Prudhomme, and in view of this and for other reasons 1t is probable that the matter will be ad- justed by the city council so that MT. PTudhomme will continue to receive the salary, at least. A considerable sentiment has arisen in behalf of Mir. Prudhomme and it seems to be widely the opinion that he should at least re- ceive the salary paid him as street commissioner at the time he was elected by the people, which was $50 month.
 MT. Prudhomme.s petition, which is being freely signed, is as follows:
 To the Honorable Mayor and Board of
 Aldermen, City of Douglas, Terri tory of Arizona. Gentlemen:
 We. the undersigned taxpayers, res idents and voters of the City of Doug las, Territory of Arizona, respectfully represent to your honorable body: We learn that a committee of your honorable body, to-wit: the street and alley committee, at the monthly meeting of your board on March 4th. 1907, recommended that the office of sanitary police created by your honor able body be abolished; that the sal ary of the commissioner, of streets of said city heretofore fixed at fifty dol lars per month be cut down. to one dollar per month.
 That Harry Prudhomme now holds the office of sanitary police and is also the duly elected commissioner of streets of said city.
 That the office of sanitary police has been of great benefit to the city and advantageous to the, residents thereof and that the scavenger work of the city under the supervision of the present incumbent of said office has been of a satisfactory nature; that the duties thereof have been faithfully and intelligently performed. and that said scavenger work has been carried out impartially through out all portions of the said city.

THE BBEE
AO ADJUSTMENT OF
 LABOR TROUBLES
Carpenters Invite and Will Receive Statement of
 Builders.

DOUGLAS, March 13.-ispeciaL)-
 Efforts thus far made to adjust the
 labor troubles have not met with en- tire success. but they are being con tinued and it Is not an improbability
 that another day may bring forth some tangible results. though the parties to the controversy do not seem so optimistic of success as they did yesterday.
 A committee of bricklayers met the master builders yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock and after 6 conference arranged that a committee of carpen- ters should confer with the builders this morning at s o'clock. The brick layers in taking the action they did make it known that they were acting as peacemakers between the carpen- ters and builders. explaining that they, themselves, had no grievance against the builders, but that they struck with the carpenters to recipro- cate for a favor extended them by the carpenters some time in the past.
 After these arrangements were made it was supposed that the car penters and builders would confer this morning, but the conference did not materialize. some hitch occurring. The carpenters then sent note to the builders, announcing that their union will hold special meeting to- night and inviting a statement from the builders. In this request the con tractors will probably accede, but whether the tenor of the statement they will send the carpenters will be of such a nature as will conduce to the settlement of the trouble is prob lematical. The contractors this morn ing had not fully determined what at- titude they will take in the matter.

land Offices in This Territory.

A Washington ID. c., special to
the Santa Fe New Mexican says:
The four New Mexico land
Offices for the year ending June
goth, will show the largest bust
ness in homestead entries of any
state or territory in the Union.
The Clayton district is on top
with more than ten thousand en-
tries, being the largest number OF
entries of any district in the Unit
ed States. Five clerks are engag-
ed in the Clayton Office and they
have hard work to keep up.
The Roswell land district will
show over five thousand home
stead entries. This is the next
largest business in the United
States; the Santa Fe land district
stands next with over three thou
sand entries. The Las Cruces
land district is not making as good
a showing, but is coming up to the
number Of homestead and desert
entries.
Delegate w. H. Andrews has
urgently requested the commiss-
Toner of the general land Office for
an increase Of clerks in the Clay
on and Santa Fe land Offices as
the work there cannot be satisfac-
torily done with the force of clerks
now granted. The delegate will
also request additional clerical
for the Roswell land Office at
an early date.

WARNS AGAINST RAW MILK.

Anti-Tubereulosis League at Atlantic
City Tells Of Dangers In Its Use.
Startling warnings against the
drinking OF raw milk, because OF the
presence Of tubercle bacilli therein
were issued by the Americon Anti
tuberculosis League at its annual
congress in Atlantic City.
DR.. E. c. Schroeder, the federal ex.
pert, wrote that milk infected with
tuberculosis bacilli is a danger seq
ond to none." and pointed out: 1t
may be interesting and instructive,
that Schlossmann has joined hands
with Won Behring In the belief tha;
all tuberculosis, at whatever age II
makes Its appearance, Is due to tuber
Gle bacilli introduced into the body
through the intestines during the
milk-drinking period Of life."
Nathan Straus said: with the de-
struction or the tubercle bacilli In the
milk 1t can be safely declared that
New York's tuberculosis record wouiJ
be impossible. In the past five years
In that city, there were 87.767 new
cases OF tuberculosis Of the lungs, and
tuberculosis Of all kinds caused A..
S31 deaths. which was over Is percent
OF the total deaths from all causes.
and % per cent. Of these victims were
under 25 years of age.
But this slaughter will go on until
every mother knows that 1t is a crime
to give her child raw milk. and until

pie, practically all of whom use raw
milk. trying to subsist upon a diet Of

Why Railways Are Eeing Electrified

The final arguments for the electri-
fcation of steam railroad are re-
duction in operation costs and in
crease OF earning capacity of the
present tracks. There are, of course.
several incidental advantages accru-
ing from the use of electricity as mo-
tive power which are of considerable
Importance, although IL is difficult to
evaluate them in dollars and cents.
In this category we may include
three: First, the smaller wear and
tear on the tracks, structures and
roadbed, due to the absence of the
lateral swaying and vertical hammer
ing caused by partially reciprocating
parts OF the steam locomotive. Sec
ond. the elimination of smoke. under
certain conditions, such as those from
the New York Central tunnel ap-
proach to the New York terminus. is
a very compelling argument. and
further reduces the maintenance of
the rolling stock by making the ne
cessity of car-body painting and
cleaning less frequent. Third. the
greater facility of train movement.
which results from the simplicity OF
control; the greater readiness for
seryice-no time need be consumed
In getting up steam. taking coal. or
cleaning fires; and n greater factor
OF reliability in the locomotive unit,
by the elimination OF fire. boiler,
high pressure steam pipes, etc.-En-
gine .ring Magazine.
