Espee Boring for ArtesIan Water.

The Southern Pacific will develop artesian water in the great Sulphur Springs Valley.
 Last week deep we'll boring outfit was unloaded at Kelton and before another week has passed the machine will be set up and operations started.
 Upon reliable official authority this paper has secured information to the effect that instructions have been is- sued to sink over 1000 feet and then another 1000 feet if necessary. Every effort will be made to encounter a flow. The boring contract has been let out to Geo. Mackey, of Bisbee.
 It is expected that there may be some difcuity in tapping the under ground stream but the company will expend large sum in prospecting the locality thoroughly. for every dollar planted in such an Enterprise will bear an abundant harvest and bring i'm mense returns to the railroad in the future.
 The Sulphur Springs Valley Is the greatest water shed in the territory and it is the contention of water ex- perts that artesian water will be en- countered by deep boring in almost any section of the valley.-Oourtland Arizonian.

Sheriff Must Travel to Collect Mileage

There was a ruling by judge Kent yesterday (June 2O) which will be of interest to the sheriffs of this territory. It was made on an exception to a cost bill in which it. was contended that the sheriff had no right to charge mileage for the service of papers sent by mail That has always been the case in this county as well as in all others in Arizona, for service by mail in many cases is as satisfactory as if an officer carries the document ia per- son from the point of it's origin. The litigant loses nothing by this form of service, for if the sheriff is determined to earn the mileage, under the new rule he would have to serve papers in person.
 The rule also applies to messages by telephone or telegraph to witnesses and others whose presence in court has been ordered. But the sheriffs lose out on the words of the statute, "miles actually travelled" The law makers did not have in mind the man. ner of the service of papers, but they designed to prevent the charging of mileage over circuItous routes. What they meant to do was to restrict the mileage to the shortest travelled route from the office of the sheriff to the destination of the paper. Phoenix Re. publican.

 "The national reclamation act was passed in 1902. At that time there were in the governments name in the sixteen states affected 600,0OO, ,000 acres of arid land, of which it was es- timated possible to reclaim sufficient to support 50. 900, ,oOO people. By 1911 the reclamation service will have re- claimed nearly 2,O0O, ,OOO acres, at an estimated cost of 7O.O0O.OOo. There are 50. .000.000 acres of arid land sus- ceptible to reclamation by irrigation. The construction cost of the reclama- tion works is returned to the govern ment from the sale of land, the pro- ceeds to be again used in furthering irrigation development. Irrigation is making e garden spot and an empire of the "Great American Desert," and the work of the irrigation congress is yet in it's infancy"

originally passed. The senate then voted
to recede from its substitute, the motion
receiving IS votes, while a constitutional
majority in the senate Is g. No further
action was taken, 1t being considered that
the senate's recession had the effect Of
passing the house bill.
The railroad company now contends
that the law Is unconstitutional because
It failed to receive a majority vote in the
senate. An interesting construction of
the constitutional requirements with ref
erence to legislation is here involved.
But the state on the other hand will
answer that the court has no authority
to grant an injunction restraining the OPP
GRAFTON of g. criminal law. This was the
position taken In the passenger rate litiga-
ton when the railroads sought TO enJoin
the commission and the governor from
enforcing the reduced passenger rate, and
that point was sustained by Judge W. T.
Newman, presiding In the United States
court
The state contends that the only proper
procedure to determine the constitution
atty of the law is for the railroad COM
pany to violate It, whereupon indictment
by the grand jury will follow and the
test of constitutionalty may be made In
the subsequent proceedings
In addition to the claim of unconstitu-
tionallty of the law that 1t involves in
effect, confiscation by requiring an un-
necessary expenditure, and that 1t will
cause great inconvenience and interior
ence with interstate commerce.
AS to the latter claim, 1t Is pointed out
TINT North Carolina has a headlight law
containing certain specifications The re-
quirements of the Georgia law are totally
different. Therefore an engine attached
TO a train moving from Georgia on into
North Carolina would have to use one
kind of a headlight in this state, and then
change for another upon crossing the
North Carolina line.
1t is charged that this is an unjust and
unwarranted interference with interstate
commerce. Injunction is also asked upon
this ground as we'll as that of the al
legged unconstitutionality of the law.
The litigation, 1t is apparent, involves
| some very pretty questions. 1t Is to be a
| fight by the railroads to save $4,000 0and
, on the part of the state to enforce the
| legislative purpose which was the better
protection of life and property.
