1T is through selection that all race

War means always the reversal Of

The survival of the %tittest in the

human history. this process OF seloc-
ton Is some times reversed. A re-

degradation. 1t Is degradation itself.
The only way in which any race as
a whole has improved has been
through its preservation of its best

The only race degeneration ever
known is that produced by those
forces which destroy the best, leaving

v4rsed today the decision of the dis
trict court at Los Angeles in the case
81 the United States against the san
IA Fp railroad company wherein the
COMPANY was found guilty on sixty
six cunts Of rebating on shipments
nf lime between Nelson, -Ariz, and
Los Angeles. Cal, and fined $3.50, 600,
the case was remanded for a new
trial,
The appeal was heard by Judges
Gilbert. Ross and Morrow.
Following an analysis Of the argu-
ment Of the appellant as to the suffi-
cheney of the Indictment under which
trial was had, the opinion handed
down today expresses the decision Of
the appellate justices. that the trial
court properly rejected the demurrer,
although q slight divergence from the
wording Of the statutes is noted.
The testimony of +. p. Gregson,
freight agent Of the Santa Fc who
was put on the stand by ne defend
. ant, but whose evidence was stricken
out on motion of the prosecution, is
r%ecounted, Gregson testified hat he
had been satisfied by the shippers
that the full 1000 pounds, constitut-
ing 4 carload lot under the company's
tariffs had been placed in the cars;
hut that the railroad scales at the
point of delivery had shown a con
Siderable loss in transit in each OF the
slxty-six cases noted in the Indictment.
ON this showing he said, the company
had agreed to accept payment from
the shipper, the Grand Canyon Lime
and Cement company of Arizona, for
the noun actually delivered at the
legal carload rate $3.50 per 100
pounds.
This evidence was stricken out of
the rccord and in his instructions
Trial Judge Welborn withdrew it ron
the attention of the jurors.
The appellate court holds that in
asmuoh as the freight tariff provides
that a shipper shall pay for all over
$4,000 pounds contained in a car and
and that since the fun amount neces-
aAry to obtain a carload rate was
shipped in each instance, the trial
court erred in not allowing this testi-
mony to go before the jury.

TO recapitulate the result of the or

is confirmed by the last report of the

not think it needs further explanation.
AS to all other extensions. the Wat
er Company is ready and willing to
make them when order is properly
made for their extension and location
of h%ydrants, in accordance with fran
chise and contract. The city has ne
elected to make such order, although
distinctly requested to do so upon
three different occasions the letter by
Mr.. Alderman, and the two letters by
the Water Company above referred

With the city. that the power of
the city to order extensions of the
water mains is accompanied with the
duty to take and order MIGRANTS at
the rate of ten per mile. The city
council must necessarily fix the loca-
ton of these MIGRANTS, 1t seems hard
ly necessary to point out that the city
council can legally bind itself only by
proper resolution or ordinance passed
at a regular or special session of the
city council and made Il matter Of
record upon its minute books. We
that the neglect of the city to
make the orders has been through
oversight and misunderstanding of
real status of this controversy.
As pointed out above, no order has
been made for the Eighth street ex-
and none has been made for
the South seventh street extension

evidently supposed that some
such order had been made. There Is

DIRECTED TO CONGRESS-
Some Discussion as to Wheth-
ef Law Contains a Peculiar
JOKER Other Business at the
Council Meeting Last Night.

The council at its meeting last
night passed a resolution introduced
ny Alderman Wroth pi otesting against
the passage by the recent legislature
OF the now celebrated publication act.
The passage of the resolution effects
the resembling of the vote taken at n
former meeting TO draw up a NOM
orial on this matter.
Before the resolution was passed
Alderman Hanley suggested that Sec
ton two of the new law is a sort of
a joker making the whole law OPTIONAL
with the council.
The city attorney said, however. he
and other eminent lawyers including
District Attorney Clancy had discussed
the law and were Of the opinion that,
this provisional clause relates only to
public notices such as notices for bids.
etc, and that the law is binding in
the case of minutes, ordinances and
other matter, The resolution was
adopted with Alderman Hanlcy voting
no.
The clause in question is as follows:
Sec. 2. All public notices now or
hereafter required by law to be given
for publication required to be made
by any board of county commissioners
shall be published in both English and
and such notices shall be pun
