this magnitude could have been accom-
plished elsewhere in the same space or
time. 1t also speaks well for the sta
bility of the Mexican government,
which guarantees the financial standing
of the merged companies
There is naturally much speculation
as to the man who will be at the head
of the merger. As yet only two names
are mentioned, S. NJ. FELTON, OF the
Mexican Central and E. N. Brown of
the National lines The appointment
rests with the government, as it con-
trolls the majority of the stock. Brown
has been identified for many years with
railroads in Mexico and is a capable
executive officer. FELTON, is equally ca
pable but has not been long in Mexico.
The Southern Pacific has received off,
cial notification from the officers Of
the Cananea, Yaqui River and Pacific
railway that the line will be opened

Judging from the rapidity of construc-
tion, the road from Guaymas to Guada-

tract time.
The recent ruling of the interstate
commerce commission regarding eat
ing houses has given the managers
of the railroad companies a new prob

practice of the transportation COM
panies to carry free Of charge all eat
ables and materials for the use of
their eating houses, and also all the
men employed in them. 1t Is thought
that the new ruling py the commission
will make IL unlawful on the part of
transportation companies to haul either
food or servants free. In the west
those most interested in this ruling
are Fred Harvey and the Santa F'e.

AUTO OWNERS WILL

By K. K. PH0mmedieu

| W. B. Culberson of the Mobile car
riage company has just returned from
the annual conference of the George N.
cation of the automobile situation in
the east, which is the heart of the
automobile trade. throws still another
light on the outlook for the coming
year. He, like all the others who have
returned lately from the Atlantic coast,
is very optimistic concerning the fu-
ture. he, however, sees from the prep
arations made in designing 1909
models a more conservative and staple
trade than heretofore enjoyed. Firms
like the George n. Pierce company.
in the Great Arrow car, will appear the
coming season with stock that will
supply all demands.
It is seen from the advance orders
booked in the east that those who can
buy automobiles have, at last, prac-
tically given up the horse and adopted
the motor car. Men who can afford it
have ceased to rush to business in a
big limousine or touring car and are
now going to use the town car. The
businessman who requires a conveyance
for short shifts around the city will
hereafter cease to use the long base
vehicle and. will have his little run
about. In Other words, men are now
accommodating an automobile stable. The
result of it is that the manufacturers
are placing on the market a full line
Of models to supply all demands, so as
to accommodate customers who are sat-
isfled with their vehicles. Culberson.
in speaking OF the future price of cars,
stated that there undoubtedly would be
number Of cheap cars placed on the
market the coming season. This, how
ever. would not have any effect on the
standard makes, as the manufacturers
of these cars were not figuring on low
ering the price, but to give the Gus
toner more for his money than he had
heretofore enjoyed. this being possible
through the reduction IN price of ma
terial and a reduction looked for in
labor. But few of the manufacturers
are making any radical changes in
their designs of last year. A few minor
improvements have been placed on the
cars, but the general design and princi-
pies still hold in vogue.
CuIberson in speaking Of the new
models of Great Arrows said that the
newest and most popular car is the
vesttbule limousine, the showiest car
that has yet been designed. In fact, it
has become the rage in the east.

SHOWS STEADY IMPROVEMENT
Los Angeles Timea, the Great News paper Of the Southwest Special
 Mining News.

A marked and apparently, a per manent improvement has been made by the Los Angeles Times in recent months in its mining news department. It is readily appar- ent that a competent, practical mining and newspaper man is in charge. The notable improvement in the mining news of The Times will accomplish much good for this important industry. The matter printed appears to be thoroughly reliabl e,and the volume of origin al mining news that The Times is publishing exceeds that of any oth- CT daily in the West.
 A growing interest is manifested by mine owners, mine workers and investors in the unusual develop ment going on m many SecllOn5 oI the Southwest. The wide publicity which such an influential and wide ly circulated paper is able to give cannot fail to result in certain ad- vancement an d ultimate good wherever throughout the whole Southwest country. the business of legitimate mining is conducted. If The Times will keep up the good work it has so we'll begun. and oth- CT business interests will do their share. Los Angeles is sure to be- come, if it is not already, the most important mining center on the Pacific Coast.

WILL ALLOW MARKINGS
New order issued by PoslsI Depart
 ment Regarding Stamps.

Every day the United States Post office Department is becoming more liberal with it's patrons. Only a snort time ago it made an order which has done away with special delivery stamps. All that is necessary now to secure immedi- ate delivery of mail matter is a few extra 2-cent stamps and the words Special Delivery" in one corner. Now it will allow the purchasers of stamps in large quantities to so mark them that they may be identified if stolen.
 Postmasters have received notification of this new order but will not secure specifications GOV ering the size of the marks to be used until later in the month, when the monthly bulletin is sent out from Washington to postmas- ters.
 The order has grown out of the frequent theft of stamps which have occurred over the country, the detection of which was difficult be- cause there was absolutely no means of identifying them. The order requires that the mark shall consist of perforation. to distin guish it from cancellation marks used by postoffices. Regulations ae prescribed as to the height and breadth of the marks to enable a large variety of marks to be used.
