Practically complete reports Of rail.
way earnings for the first six months
Of the present calendar year have
been received, with the exception OF q

June. business in detail. The result Is
most gratifying, showing gain Of
more than - per cent over the cor
responding period Of last year, which
was one of the most prosperous six
months in the history of American
railways. For the fiscal year, ending
with June 80, Dow, Jones & Co. es.
innate that the railroads Of the coun'
try earned $2,5TS,41S,273 gross, an In
crease OF S25S,658,94S, or 15.11 per
cent. over the previous year. The
earnings in 1906 we're ia per cent
greater than in 1905, so that the pres.
ent fiscal year Is a record'breaker on
top Of n record-breaker. /,
The cold figures discount every
claim made by some railroad mana
gers that the reduction Of freight rates
in certain States, new passenger
schedules and the increase in the cost
Of labor and materials would make
railroading improbable and endanger
Investments. The record shows that
earnings, both gross and net, have in
creased consistently from month to
month, and that there Is at the pres

Evidently. the "boEs" Of ths west.yn Federation at Denver is not highly pleased with the efforts so far attained by the organizers" who hsve bcun attempting 10 uniopize Bisboc and tI,v Warren district for the past three weeks.
 Judging from a telegran received by Joseph D. Cannon, one of the local organizers. more strenuous efforts are 10 be used in the immediate Iu,uie. Ths instructions received from :he Secretary. Treasurer are to the effect that the miners of the Warren district who refuse to join and affiliate with the local organization of the Western Federation of Miners, are to bo branded as "scabs" over the entire Jurisdiction.
 T'bis uliimatum. issued from the main office of the Federation, will no doubt now bring the efforts of the Eorganizcrs" in this district to a point "htlt tue Vutsliou VIII soDu Ue ueCiu' ed whether the Warren district, and especially Bisbee, is to remain as an open camp, or whether it fs to pass under the domination of the Western Federation. ..r ---.. .-....
 The order received from the Sec retary-Treasurer in Denver, means business. It means forcing the issue in this district for men earning theil livlihood in the mines. It is proposed to brand them as "scabs" in every mining camp, where the Western Federation has hold, if they do no, step over upon the side represented in this section at present by Messrs Rawling, Cannon and Semple.
 In brief, the grand secretary at Den yer, has issued his ultimatum. The blacklist is to be brought into play in this district and the action of the secretary at Denver is drawing the lines dangerously close.
 The question whether Bisbee is tc be an "open" camp, or Western Fed eration camp, We believe will be de

Governor Kiigbey gsudeHily. desires iAa; c. sASB besihe sslsoie thing when lt comes 10 taxing mines. He has given @ very plain lip Co the repre-, sentsliyes d the people that he will swat the mine tax bill with a veto. Tho Doran mine tax bill is based on principle Of placing an equal bur. den on all the producing mines of the territory and exempting all the non-producing mines. Those best in. formed as to the mineral product of the territory give it as their opinion ] that the Doran tax bill will double the entire revenue of the territory thereby reducing the tax rate about one-half. It is very strange that Gov ernor Kibbey should oppose a meas ure of this kind. The people of Ari zcna have for years demanded that the territory should have more reve nue from the producing mines and that the mines should be valued on 8 basis of production (there is no other way to value a mining property ex cept on a production basis) and now that such a bill is proposed it is ob
 jected to by the governor, who in the past has favored such measure.

When President Roosevelt returned from Panama he sent to the senate a message on the canal. Referring to this the Baltimore Sun says: MT. Roosevelt proved that the canal was rapidly being built by producing with his message actual photographs of forty-eight scenes, among which were the following: President Roosevelt climbing a steamshovel.' President Roosevelt eating his way through a Panama dinner President Roose- welt watching at their work the three laborers who are actually digging the canal President Roosevelt's smile, walk, face, feet ears. boots, clothes and conversation in sundry front, rear and profile views To avoid another such message, the senate agreed to let Mir. Roosevelt dig a three-story canal, with basement and cellar, and put in modern plumbing if he thinks best. Now Senator Beveridge pro poses to embeIlish his speech on child labor with all kinds of narrowing photographs, accompanied by afii- davits of the photographer that they were taken by a camera and not by a handorgan.

 President Rooseyelt's chilly reply to the Massachusetts petition for an ex- tra session of congress to make changes in the Dingley tariff means simply that he, will insist on taking the tariff pitcher to the well again in the presidential and congressional elections of next year. ar...s.-4re.ese4-
 This, it is remembered, is contrary to the advice of Secretary Elmer Dow CT, of the republican national com mittee. who, in Washington a few weeks ago, expressed the fear that it would not be safe to take that pitcher to the well too often-
 Realizing the danger and knowing that the president will not call an ex- tra session recommended by Senator Cullom in December, and now asked for by almost the entire republican organization of Massachusetts, Mir. Dover hoped that the necessary tarid changes would be made in the long session of the sixtieth congress which meets on the first Monday of next De cember.
 In this. 1t seems, he is doomed to disappointment through the hostile at titude which Mir Roosevelt, according to the Washington dispatches, has now for the first time definitely as sumed His support in this attitude by Speaker Cannon makes it practi- caliy certain that, unless new light comes to administration and house leaders, there will be no changes in the tariff before the elections of next year.
 And yet, the monopoly tariff. has be come so burdensome to certain great interests hitherto closely allied with the republican party that there is dan Fer the pitcher will be broken the next time. the voters get a chance to kick it on the way to the we'll
 Massachusetts manufacturers do not want the same kind of tariff re- yision that is desired by the wool growers of Ohio and Wyoming, or by the farmers and livestock man of Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. But the changes which Massachusetts wants she wants badly.
 The growth Of manufactures nsn tbe west and south revealed by the recent census is taken by Massachusetts as plain warning that she must cheapen the cost Of rrcduction if she IS to hold her own againsta the growing competition. Canada Is her nearest source of supply fo.; coal and lumber and she wants the protective taria taken from both.
 The tariff on hides and leather is a proft-destroying tax on the great shoe industry which is irksome to the Bay state manufacturers in their com petition with the manufacturers of St Louis, who have cheaper coal and food. Massachusetts also wants the protective tarif removed from woo and other raw materials.
 The pressure is so strong that eves Senator Lodge, the presidents spolees man in the senate. has been forced tt declare for revision.
 In the east. as in the west, the re publican party is pulling two ways or Dingleyisen, and those who are tug ging on the revision. ropes are beoom ing more impatient all the time. I
