Ranges Dry Up

Cattlemen coming in from differ
 ent parts of the county state that the ranges are rapidly drying up and that in some parts of the coun- ty cattle are dying for the want of feed and water. The dry winds that have been prevailing for the past six weeks have done more to dry up the ranges than anything else. In the Chiricahuas a num- Der of canyons have gone dry that for years have had running water in them In the San Pedro the roundup had to be discontinued on account of the cattle being in such poor condition that they could not be handled. The Sulphur Spring and ar Simon valleys are nearly bare of feed at this time and cattle there are rapidly falling off. This spring there has not been the usual crop of weeds that has been exper- fenced during the past two or three years on which the cattle had fed until last winter. .-Bisbee R R,view.

Dr. Hale on American Travel.

In his monthly talk in the July Woman's Home Companion, Dr. Edward Everett Hale protests against the growing commercializ- ing of travel in America, the mak- ing of it business when it ought to be pleasure.
 "The railroad people seem to think, he says, "that if they can make the public understand how to get from New York to Santa Bar bara in fifteen minutes less than it needed year ago. the great battle of life is gained.
 But whoever will try the ex- pertinent of saying, We will show you how to go from New York U the Pacific and back again. stop ping forty times on the way. and coming back twice the man you were when you started, will make genuine contribution to the up lift of that hundred million people who are called Americans. !"

Make Territorial Fair Success

The time is drawing near when the work of preparation for the next territorial fair should be be gun. The Arizona fair has been a success under the control of the fair commission which has had it in charge. composed of Hon )rables Tom Pollock of Flagstaff. B. A. Packard of this county and J. C.. Adams of Phoenix. Mr. Pollock recently rendered his resignation as a member of the borad and Mir. Packard has signed his intention of also retiring from the fair commits son because of pressing private business. It is to be regretted that these two gentlemen cannot be retained on the territorial fair commission as the success of the fair in the past is due to the ener- gy and spirit of territorial pride which stimulated these gentlemen and MT. Adams in their efforts to make the territorial fair credit to Arizona. It is to be hoped that other men may be found in the territory who will prove as efficient as Messrs. Pollock and Packard as members of the territorial fair commission. -Bibsee Review.

Indians coming from the Squaw Peak country to Jerome. report that the Apache Kid is in the mountains n the Tonto country.

Be the report true or not, the Indians who have been living in that part of the country are rap idly working to the nearest settle ments. --Jerome News.

and to send them to the committee on

ed. The bill of the civic federation,
introduced in the senate by Mr.. War
ner of Missouri, is the same as is now
being considered by the house commit
lee on the judiciary. 1t is understood
that the senate committee VIII accept
the testimony taken in the house in
the measure and will not grant hear
ings, as that would delay consideration
TO such an extent that passage at inns
session would be rendered practically
impossible. The Foraker bill consists
of one section and Is designed TO legal

Frick said that he took no part i'm
anything that might tend to denote a

that his investments in the stock of
the railroads were private enterprises,
made because of the fact that he be-

all of the railroads in the west with
out being in close competition with

SENATE COMMITTEES BILL
CONCLUSION ARRIVED AT AFTER
EXTENDED HEARING.

b Washington. April 6.-After extend
ed hearings and exhaustive arguments
by the members of the senate commit
tee on the judiciary, that committee
today agreed upon a bill dealing with
the shipment of liquors from enc state
or territory TO another state or terri
tory. The measure VIII be reported by
Senator Knox, who was chairman of
the subcommittee which conducted the
hearings. 1t is comparatively simple
in form, providing that there shall be
no collect on delivery" packages of
liquor shipped in interstate commerce
where fictitious names are used, and
that the name of the cOnsigner and
consignee shall be stated plainly. The
provision is designed to eliminate the
practice of railroad and express agents
acting as agents for liquor houses.
Many Bills Before Congress.
There were numerous bills before the
subcommittee dealing with every
phase of the question, and particularly
they sought to give to a state the right
10 control liquor shipments the mo-
ment they entered the border Of the
state. Temperance organizations all
over the country desired this feature
10 be Incorporated in the bill so as ~
give the widest latitude TO a state IN
exercising its police powers. All of the
bills before the subcommittee were
declared unconstitutional by vote of
three TO two. A vote was later had on
the bills by the full committee and
they were declared unconstitutional by
q vote of seven to five.
Unanimous Report.
The bill agreed upon eliminates the
features that are believed to have en-
dangered a constitutional test. In re-
porting il TO the senate, Senator Knox
viii perfect its phraseolOgy The re-
port on this bill will be unanimous. At
the same time the minority OF the COM
mittee believes that certain other fea-
lures intended 10 broaden the scope of
the measure should be enacted, and il
was agreed that the votes of all of the
members of the committee might or
should be incorporated in the report 10
the senate. The submission to the SEN
ate OF the views of the minority will
transfer the whole matter to the senate
floor with excellent prospects of a re-
newed fight there for what is termed a
broad states right" bill.
