TOD NOISY, SAYS
 GALL
"EgotiStic, ImpuIsiye, of lm- mature Judgment, and a limelight Glutton," Is the Broad Inference.

MARSHFIELD, Mass. Aug. 26- The practice of the administrator in expending the maximum amount of noise and disturbance to secure the minimum of good may he diverting, but 1t is costly
 So said Congressman Samuel Mo Call, one of the foremost politicians of Massachusetts. in an address teddy in which he attacked the "extenaion or the executive authority"
 Referring to the recent government prosecutions he said that the fine of the Standard Oil for the of.ense of accepting a discriminating rate prob ably was not greatly exceeded by all the other fines imposed in the federal courts since the establishment of the government.
 Mccall asked why the old laws were not enforced rather than new ones demanded and pointed uut that at the time when congress was asked to confer upon an executive depart ment power to fix rates there was then .2pon the statute books the very act against rebates and discrimina- tions under which this $S0 100000 fine was imposed.
 T believe that the populistic agita- ton started by the rate bill, far more than the legislation which resulted therefrom has financially and indus tTialiy injured the country. If a simi- lar public sentiment had been created sixty years ago many of our great commonwealths would today be unset tied areas. The effect of the rate bill will be that of augmenting the executive power beyond all rational limits.
 The tendency of the times appears to centralize all power in Washing ton andthen to have it all exercised by one man. I say, let the people keep all the Governmental powers not necessary to the preservation of units and safety.
 You are liable some day to have a president who is egotistic, impulsive. of immature judgment and limelght glutton for momentary applause. If he be autocTatic, such for the time will your country be.
 Instead of a truly mighty nation you may have a strutting. ccnfiscat- ing, shrieking. meddling America. Ad. here, then, to the Representative gov. ernment of the fathers, the only kind which from the foundation of the world has cherished human freedom 9

THINK SANTA FE ID
 BUILD 4 NEW LINE
May Entirely Remodel the
 Route to San DiegO-Ma- !. teriaI on Ground.

PHOENIX, Aug. 26.-The belief is growing in railroNd circles that the branch of the Santa Fe is to be re- built at an early date, and thus a new and direct line opened to San Diego from San Bernardino.
 While Santa Fe officials have sey- eral times in the past year stated that they had no intention of recon structing the line, straws continue to indicate that it will be rebuilt, though it is the intenton of the Santa Fe to keep their plans quiet as long as pos sible.
 It is announced that heavy steel rails and thousands of ties have been distributed along the right of way from Ferris to Temecula. That part of the line is to be constructed first, 1t is said, and then the track from Ferris to Highgrove rebuilt, and the grades in it reduced.
 There is at present 8 gap of about thirteen miles from Temecula to Fall brook through the canyon country, and it requires some very difficult construction to put a line through there that will withstand the storms and flood waters.
 Recently trip was made to Teme- cula by a number of officials, who visited the canyon and looked over the ground. It is said that surveys recently made in the canyon by engin- eers show that by raising the tracks above the water line and making the construction of the best, with few short tunnels, a permanent roadway can be obtained. The original line from San Bernardino to San Diego was built via that route. but after some years was abandoned because of the frequent trouble with wash outs

WILL ABANDON SALT RIVER
 CANAL
Government to Take This Ac- ton Because Waterway Is a Nuisance and Carries Ty- phoid Germs.

PHOENIX, Aug. 26.-There i every indication that before the gov ernment gets through with remodel ing the canals ou, this side of the riv- CT, it will abolish the Salt River Val ley canal.
 The men who have control of things think that this canal is a nuisance and a menace to the health of the town. They claim that they can trace several cases of typhoid fever, which broke out last summer in the western part of the valley, to this ca nal. They say that men irrigating did not take their canteens with them, and drank out of the ditch and that the fever germs impregnated the ditch water.
 There is no reason why this Is not a reasonable suppositiOn. For in stance yesterday a platform over the canal, back of the Belmont lodging house fell into the canal. carrying with it's filth and multiplied millions of all kinds of germs. The reclamation people worked all day yesterday get ting the platform out of the canal, and while they were digging into the mess they were informed by reliable testimony that many cesspools were being drained into the canal from Center street west, and that when ihe canal was full of water these cess pools were flooded until the canal be- came a regular sewer system.
 It is well known that many boys go west on the canal to bathe. and they are sure to catch any disease that is communicated by the canal waters.
 These things are all being consid- cred by the government now. but the main reason for wishing the canal abolished is that 1t Is unwieidy and unnecessary. Two canals only are needed on the north side-they are the Arizona canal and the Grand or Appropriators-and the general sys- tenn of water distribution will be through the south and west laterals, work on which has already com menced By the construction of these laterals and the abandonment of the superfluous canals the country win be rid of the ungainly view of canals, crossing the roads every few hun dred yards, and the water will be de livered in more satisfactory way. Besides. the lateral system will be a great saver Of water.
 While nothing authentic has been given cut, 1t is reasonable to suppose that in the not far distant future some of these plans fill materiatize.
