SEGREGATION LAW IS
To HAVE AMENDMENTS

Governor Frear has already begun to
map out his work to be done before
the converting of the Legislature,
among which will be the preparation
of a new law dealing with leprosy and
segregation and a bill authorizing a
new bond issue.
"We will have to have amendments
to the present segregation law" said
the Governor yesterday, "not only be-
cause the present law is indefinite, but
also to provide for the Inauguration of
the new system to be adopted by the
Board of Health, according to the pol
icy already announced. This is to be
along the lines recommended by DR..
Koch.
'There will have to be a new bond
issue, but | can not state as yet what
amount we will have to sell. | will
go into this question with the heads of
the various departments and have
everything ready for the Legislature. "

BANCROFT AND
CALVIN IN TOWN

w. II. Bancroft, vice president and
general manager of the Union Pacific
railway, at Ogden, and E. E. Calvin,
vice president and general manager of
the Southern Pacific railway, of San
Francisco, regarded as railway authori-
ties all over the United States, arrived
yesterday on the Siberia and are regis
tered at the Alexander Young Hotel.
The two managers came here on a
vacation trip, about the first they have
had in about twenty years. They will
spend part of their time on Hawaii,
taking in the Volcano, and NAV leave
for Hi1o on the Mauna Kea next Tues
day.
They will be given every mark of
attention by both the island railroad
and steamer officials, who plan to look
after their journeys to other islands
and over this island. They viii return
to San Francisco on the Mongolia.
The Chronicle of January 8 SAYS of
Messrs. Bancroft and Calvin:
w. III. Bancroft, general manager of
the Union Pacific, with headquarters
at Omaha, arrived here at noon YES.
terday in his private car.
He has come to join E. E. Calvin,
general manager of the Southern Pa
cifc, and with him depart next Satur-
DAY for Honolulu.
Calvin, actual managerial head of
the Southern Pacific, and Bancroft
actual managerial head of the Union
Pacific, are going to the Islands purely
for recreation. They expect to return
here by February 5.
That this trip to Honolulu may have
some significance as regards steam
ship facilities in connection with the
Hartman interests has been suggest
ed, but the officials deny any such
purpose. Hartman practically owns
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
and anything in connection with thai
company would be attended to by
General Manager Schwerin, who is ar
expert, while Calvin and Bancroft ar,
landsmen, accustomed to manage rail
road properties only. It is said they
want to get away from the railroad.

Around the

< x *** X x X j:

Three grains of cocaine and thirty
six grains of opium are given to DR..
Atcherley every day at the police sta
ton. In order to insure regularity in
the absorption of this dope, the three
watch captains have been entrusted
with the two drugs. Every four hours,
doctor" Baker, as the captain is now
called, goes to Atcherley's cell with a
bottle containing tablets OF cocaine
and bottle containing opium pellets.
The captain dumps two one-quarter-
grain cocaine tablets into the Doctors
hand, and when the prisoner has put
these into a solution for injection into
his arm, the officer doles out six opium
pellets, each containing a grain. This
dope is taken throughout the day and
night.

night he always seems to be awake -
DR.. Ateherley's case held the atten-
tion of Police Magistrate Andrade all
day yesterday. In the forenoon DR..
Sinclair, witness for the government,
was on the stand. He gave direct tes-
timony as to his belief in the unsound-
ness of DR.. Atcherley's mental condi-
ton. The defense put him on the
grill. Dr. Sinclair stated at one time
| that he did not wish to answer DR..
Atcherley's questions, on the ground
that the latter was not of reasoning
mind.
The defense began in the afternoon
by putting on Sister Albertina and
Dr. Camp. The latter is a next-door
| neighbor He said he did not believe
the amount of dope used by Dr. At
cherlev was excessive for him. Sister
Albertina did not think the Doctor in
sane. The case continued during the
Monday morning.
Urging Crawford for Post.
! There is movement on in certain
| circles, connected more or less with the
police court and the County Attorney g
Office, to put William Crawford in the
position of police court interpreter,
vice Goo Kim, who is to be retired on
| the ground that he is not citizen.
| Crawford was one Of the men most in
| strumental in having this and other
government interpreter positions put
on the basis of citizenship. No one
has yet come forward to make a rec
ommendation that Crawford be given
the position. Crawford is said to be
| closer to the inner secrets of the gam
| bling fraternity of Chinatown than al
most any other man, and if he is rec
commended or appointed, there is GER
tain to be protest.

ArizOnans Victory
 Over Fargo

A Washington dispatch ssys:-
 The interstate commerce cHmrhis- sion has made a decision in the case of the Msricops County C.lnmerical club of Phoenix, Ariz.. against the Wells. Fargo company.
 It is found by the commission that the defendants base rates, applying between Phoenix. Mesa and Tempe and specified points in Cal iornia, Arizona, New Mexico and other states, to be unress unab ble. Lower rates will now be prescribed for the future.
 The commission found that the revenues of the defendant company were excessive and that its charges might well be reduced, if in compari- son with other considerations they were sunressonably high, which ,ws- found to be the fact, and lower rate: were prescribed by the commission. The deiendsnt is the only expres, company serving Arizona territory and wss insisted that this mon pol, resulted in extrsvagant rates, but th. only evidence tending to shcw tha the rates attacked nere unreasonsbl, was the comparison with rates pre-. ysiliug in other sections.

Holding a Light
 For Arizona Convicts

Communications. recently becoming somewhat frequent under Governor Sloan's administration, will be very numerous for the next month or SO. It has become an established prece- dent to reward territorial rOnvicts who behave themselves and work hard by cutting of enc day from their sen- tences for each day spent i1 labor upon the new penitentiary At Flor ence. The plan has worked excel- lently and has proven of great moral benefit to the convicts by giving them 6 definite ambition, the realiza ion Of which lies immediately in the fore ground.
 Governor Sloan has prepared com mutations for all those cOnvicts whose sentences, with credits for good be- hsvior and added credits for work at Florence, expire during the present month.

Some History on
 Statehood Ora ma

By Louis B. Lane in the National
 Magazine)
 For twenty years the territories of New Mexico and Arizona have been qualified for admission as states. From the time when the qualification was demonstrated, the national dem ocracy recognized 1t. For upwards of two decades the democracy has striven for the great act of justice which Arizona and New Mexico de manded as a matter of right. For two decades the republican party mas kept New Mexico and Arizona out of statehood. It has done this in flag rant defiance of the spirit and mean ing Of the constitution. It has done it in open violation of it's pledged word. It has been guided by no mo tive of public policy. It has had no excuse. It has sought in vain for even a pretext worthy of the name. It's objects have been purely politi- cal IL could not tolerate the weight which the admission or Arizona and New Mexico would have added to the west, and undoubtedly to the de mocracy, by the election of four new United States senators. It could not bear the substantial increase of west ern and democratic force in the house of representatives.
 So the republican party has lent it. self to gigantic fraud Its course In the matter Of separate statehood for New Mexico and Arizona has over stepped the fatal dividing line that differentiates political policy from political crime. It Is a political fel- ony which has only one parallel in American civic fraud-that other re publican crime whereby Samuel J. Tlden was cheated out of the pres idency to which he was lawfully elect ed Over the territories of Arizona and New Mexico. one might imagine lowering the ghost of Zack Chandler with its cry of 1S76-"COncede noth- ing" Nothing has been conceded to New Mexico and Arizona. Nothing to the intention of the constitution. nothing to the precedents which have prevailed in the prior admission of states. nothing to the opinion of the country, nothing to the protest of the democracy. nothing to innate justice and immutable equity. nothing to the honor of the republican party Itself The blockade of statehood for two territories which are states in every thing but name and privileges, is a steal by anticipation. It Is a case of getting ofY with the swag before the real owner has a chance to put him self in possession. The republicans responsible for the crime against Ari- zona and New Mexico have found a
