Nothing better for the navy from every

every way has been extraordinary. and

gained IL they had stayed in the Atlantic
waters. The American people have cause
for profound qualification. both In view

shown by this cruise. and in view OF the
Improvement the cruise has worked in

acter and efficiency In the enlisted men

On the question of statehood the

i advocate the immediate admission Of
New Mexico and Arizona as states. This
should be done at the present session Of

Judicial System Sound.

Our judicial system rs sound and
effective at core. and It remains.
and must ever oe maintained as
the safeguard os those principles of lib
erty and justice which stand at the
foundation OF American institutions; for.
as Burke finely said. when liberty and
justice are separated. neither Is sAS-.
There are however some m~7oers of
the judicial body who have Jagged be-
hind in their understanding OF these
great and vital changes in the body
polite. whose minds have never been
opened TO the new applications of the old
principles made necessary by the new
conditions. Judges OF this stamp do last
ing harm by their decisions, because they
convince poor men In need Of protection
that the courts OF the land are pro-
foundly ignorant OF and out OF sympathy
with their needs. and profoundly ignorant
or hostile TO any proposed remedy To
such men II seems a cruel mockery to
have any court decide against them on
the ground that II desires to preserve
liberty In a purely technical form. by
Withholding liberty in any real and con-
structive sense
There are certain decisions by various
courts which have been exceedingly det-
rlmental to the rights of wage-workers.

MAY ELECTRIfY PART
Of SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Hartman Said to Be Securing
Sources of Power Along
His Line.

RENO, New. Nov 15.--It is rumorcd
that the Southern Pacific will clectrify
its road from Sparks to San Francisco;
shat e. II. Hartman is behind the
Fleischaker interests, and that the
Truckce River General Electric com
pauy is already in Southern Pacific
bands The authenticity of the rumor
cannot be verified at present. but the
news is CLEANED from source usually
authentic that Mr., Hartman is try
ing to control the electric power of this
part of the county.
The Truckee River company has
passed to the F1eischaker interests and
the actual sale should be consummated
within few days. General Manager
Baum and Superintendent Nappaly were
in Carson City and Virginia last week
looking over the old property Of the
company at those points. The men are
comforting with the main offices of the
FleischakeTs In San Francisco, and as
soon as their report is made, it is ex-
pected the money for the property will
be paid over and control established
That Hartman is behind the Fleis-
chakers is feasibly enough, when the
source of the power of the company is
considered. The Truckee river parel-
lels the Southern Pacific tracks from
Reno TO distance above Floriston. At
Floriston is located power house,
which generates electricity for Reno,
Carson and Virginia. 1t would be easy
to install third rail and electrify the
road from Floriston.
