RECIPROCAL DEhURRAGE.

A little while ago, when shippers
we're clamoring for cars, they were
demanding reciprocal demurrage
laws, imposing upon railways fine
or Imprisonment for neglecting to
furnish cars when demanded. 1t
was thought to be demonstration
of entire fairness that shippers
were willing that such laws should
impose a penalty upon them for
OBTAINING such cars an unreason-
able time. But now there are cars
in plenty; in fact there are 100000
cars too many, lying idle aud de-
teriorating for lack of work to do.
Since turn about 'is fair play, it
may be suggested that now is a
good time for the railways to press
the enactment of reciprocal cargo
laws, penalizing shippers for refus-
al to furnish freight when the cars
are rendered. The railways can
plead that they have expended
hundreds of millions of capital to
meet their obligations as common
carriers, and that it is the duty of
the public to provide fair return
for this devotion of private capital
for public use.
Alabama, Colorado, Indiana,
Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis-
souri,. New York, Oregon, South
Dakota, Texas, Vermont and
Washington passed demurrage
laws against the railways. How
many states will pass demurrage
laws in the interest of the railways9
Indeed, how many of the above
states will make over their laws
into some semblance of fairness
toward public servants, who, with
all their faults, did well, judged by
the standard of any country in the
world? New York World.

CONCRETE HOUSES.

Concrete houses may solve the
problem of cheap dwellings. Thom-
as Edison, the inventor says that
a concrete house can be built for
$1,000. Henry Phipps, the Pitts
burg millionaire and philanthro-
pist, will, it is reported, build several
thousand of these houses near
New York and Philadelphia. He
will rent them to working men and
their families for $3.50 per month.
Mr.. Edison is planning the con-
struction of steele moulds to be
used in casting the concrete cot
tages. He says that with the use
of the steele frames a concrete
house can be built in day. All
that will be required is to fill the
steele frame with concrete. The
mixing of the concrete will be the
most difficult part of the work.
Mr. Edison is reported as say
ing: Where the wooden frame
plan is used time must be allowed
for each story to solidify. With
the steele molds which / propose
to use, the concrete can be hoisted
to the top, poured in, and when
the mold overhcws you will have
your house ready Just as soon as it
hardens, and the frame work can
be removed.
Il am not altogether certain
that it will not be possible to have
concrete conduits for the plumb
ing and water supply. | am work
ing on that Also upon plan fol
concrete bath tub. The wire
conduits will be concrete also.
"Such a building would stanG
forever; it would be fire proof anc
will do away with insurance,
believe it will withstand any but
excessive earthquakes. The con
crete dwelling is the home of the
future. 1t will revolutionize thing:
in the larger cities. Denver Post

feet January 19OS but afterwards changed to April

"Ofhce of the Postmaster General,
Washington, D. c., Order No 9O1

 A WILDCAT
 PROPOSITION

Yavapai county has again been made, the basis for wildcat mining scheme which involves two of the fair sex, one as promoter and the other as a victim, says the Prescott Journal Miner.
 According to New York dispatch, Mrs Elizabeth Gerwig, president of the J. Alden Gaylord Mining company, and who says she owns copper property near Mayer, to recover $500 which Mrs. Gerwig alleges Mrs. Gaylord induced her to invest by fraud and deceit. Mrs. Gaylord is under arrest op charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.
 Mrs. Gaylord attracted some attention year ago by publicly announcing she was going to conduct her brokerage business as Christ or St. Paul would have done. Like one J. Waterloo Dns- dale, of local notoricty, Mrs. Gaylord quoted the scriptures freely and once told Mrs. Gerwig, when that trusting woman made demand for the return of her $300, to "keep up your trust in God and me, for all do is with his help. :"
 4 Mir. Whitney, who claims to be a high official of the mining company owning the Royal Arizona copper mine, when confronted by newspaper man, sidestepped all inquiries, leaving Mrs. Gaylord to do the talking. All the in- formation so far given out concerning the property is that it is located near Mayer. Inquiry around Mayer by a Journal Miner representative failed to bring to light any Royal Arizona or other mining property with which Mrs. Gaylord is connected in any way.
