So might Columbus feel if he could
be brought back to earth and witness
what is going on today in all parts
Of the western world. What has been
accomplished, as the result of his
voyage Of 1892. is something of which
he never dreamed. He never meant
to discover new world, and he died
without the slightest suspicion that he
had made such a discovery. He died
in obscurity and disgrace, because
he had not done the thing which he
had set out to do; he had entailed
fresh expenses upon his royal patrons
instead of guiding them to boundless
riches. When he died at Valladolid
on Ascension day, 1866, the annals of
that town which mention everything
OF local interest, great and small from
year to year, take no heed of the
passing away of that great spirit. 1t
was left for the events of later ages
to clothe with adequate significance
the events of 1892.
1t was not until this western cont.

be realized, and to reflect upon the
memory of Columbus the glory of
which he was defrauded in his life.

ARIZONA DELEGATES
DISPUTE OVER PRINTING
Territory May Clash with U. S.
on Finance of ConStitu-
ton Building

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. ia clash
over the question whether the federal
or territorial officials had any super
visoral authority over the financial
part of constitution building en-
livened the session of the convention
today. Territorial Secretary Young
precipitated the discussion by the an
nouncement that he would not pay for
the printing of proposals for constitu-
tional articles, unless the printing con-
tract was first submitted to him for
sanction. He said his attitude was
based on instructions from Secretary
Ballinger of the interior department.
A committee of three attorneys Sc
lected from among the delegates rem
dered an opinion that the territorial
officials had nothing to do but pay the
bills approved by the constitutional
convention and on the strength of that
the convention voted to let the con-
tract.
NJ G.. Cunniff, delegate from Yav-
apai county, and a former instructor
in Harvard. introduced a proposal to-
day for prohibiting courts from issu-
ing injunctions restraining any person
or association from exercising rights
guaranteed by the constitutions of the
state and nation. Other proposals pre-
vide for placing all officials on a sal
ary, to eliminate road taxes and to
create a corporation commission of
three members.

Municipal Affairs
PLAN IMPROVEMENT OF
BEACH CITIES STREETS
Banning Interests Agree to Open
Gravel Deposit at Cata-
lima Island

The board Of public works yesterday
instructed the city engineer to pre-
pare special specifications for street
improvements at San Pedro and Viii
mington.
This is a slight letting down of the
bars on street improvements, but only
for these two localities. 1t was recon-
mended by w. M. Humphreys, in
spector of public works, because there
are no gravel or rock deposits any
where near San Pedro or Wilmington.
To haul gravel and rock such a dis
tance would make the cost of street
improvements, under the present city
specifications, so costly that Mr.. Hum
phreys fears all efforts to improve
would stop.
Specifications for the harbor district
will provide for natural soil street i'm
provements which have been discard
ed in Los Angeles for some time.
The Banning interests have agreed
to open a gravel deposit at Catalina
island for street improvements at the
harbor whenever the demand for the
material justif1es such .action. This
is not likely to be for some time to
come, and for that reason the board
believes special specifications should
be provided.

ON RATE BY RAIL
Interstate Commerce Officials
Adhere to Long and Short
Haul Provision
SCHEDULES MAY BE REVISED
Present Rights of Carriers viii
Be Respected According to
Latest Decision
SCHEDULES MAY BE REVISED
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.--In a formal
order, issued late today, the interstate
commerce commission announced its
determination to administer strictly
section 4, the long and short haul pro-
vision of the interstate commerce act.
BY the terms of the order there will
be no change in the existing status
or in the present rights of carriers
until February II, 1911. They may
file with the commission such dam
ages in rates as ordinarily would be
filed in the course of their business,
under the present rate basis or ad-
justments. This accords them the
right even to file higher rates or fares
to intermediate points and through
rates or fares higher than the COM
binations of intermediate rates or
fares, provided that in so doing the
discrimination against intermediate
points is not made greater than that
in existence August 1, 1910.
The commission announces that it
does not necessarily approve through
this permission any rates or fares that
may be filed, all Of them being held
subject to correction.
1t is ordered chat the commission
reaffirm its previously expressed view
that a through rate or fare that is
higher than the combination of the in
termediate rates or fares is prima
facie unreasonable and will insist upon
the application of that principle at the
earliest possible date in every instance
except possibly extreme and very un-
usual cases."
This is understood to mean that only
in extraordinary conditions will the
commission exercise the authority con-
ferred by congress TO permit in its dis
cretion technical violations of the long
and short haul provision.

RENUMBER 18TH FLOOR
OF CHICAGO SKYSCRAPER
Hoodoo Causes Owners to Try
TO Change Luck

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-Floor No. 1S in
a skyscraper downtown here has been
changed to 12-A 1t is said by occu-
pants Of the building that the thir-
teenth floor has more business failures
and vacancies to its credit than all of
the building, and it seems that the two
most recent in its string of calamities
have. prompted the management to
try to change its luck.
The agent of the building denied that
the hoodoo superstition was a factor
in changing the numbers of the floor.
''It was our original intention to
have the floor numbered PA" he
said. 1.-THE mistake was made by the
painters when the building was con-
structed and we've just got around to
correct it. It is a fact, though, that
many people are superstitious on this
point and would not rent room num-
bered 13 Women are the worst. On
their account we have had to omit
the number 13 from most of our apart
ment buildings in order to keep all the

CLAIM BROADWAY TUNNEL
CAR LINE BARRED BY DEED
Highland Park Residents Petition
for GarVanza Cutoff

Running street car tracks through
the Broadway tunnel is impossible un-
der the terms of the deed by which the
city acquired title to the tunnel land
according to a report submitted yes
terday by the board of public utilities
The deed to the land, which was OBJ
tanned in a compromise of a condem-
nation suit, specifically provides that
no street cars shall be given a fran
chise through the tunnel. This pro-
vision holds good for all time to come
unless the donor of the land will waive
the condition.
The Highland Park Protective asso-
citation petitioned the council to ad-
vertise a franchise for sale through
this tunnel for the Garvanza cars, as
it would cut ten to fifteen minutes off
the running time to Garvanza and
partially relieve the congestion on
Main street.

TAFT CONSIDERS WHITE
TO HEAD SUPREME BENCH
President Seeks Opinions on Ap-
pIicants for Vacant Post

NEW YORK, Oct 19-It was learned
here today that among the candidates
for chief justice of the United States
supreme court whom President Taft
is considering is Associate Justice Ed
ward Douglass White.
Justice White was appointed to the
supreme court from Louisiana and is
a Democrat
While the president is considering
both Senator Root and Justice White,
he has not given up the idea of ap-
pointing Justice Hughes.
Some time ago it seemed that the
latter was to be appointed, but the
fact that Mr. Taft is seeking opinions
both as to Justice White and Senator
Root is taken as indicating that he
has not made up his mind.

Socialist View of Boy Scout Move
ment.

All over the civilized world there
is a great unrest on the part Of the
working class who are getting tired
of being starved to death on the in
stallment plan. While the cost o.
living increases by leaps and bounds
wages increase at a snail's pace.
AS a result of this state of affairs
labor organizations are getting
stronger day by day. Socialism is
sweeping the world. 1t already has
the thrones of Europe tottering, and
in this country at the present time
il is a power to be reckoned with.
The big capitalists see that this
awakening of labor will soon take
their ruling power away and labor
will come into its own.
In order to stem this tide the rul-
ing powers are using all their in
fluence to organize the Boy Scout
movement as a preliminary step to-
wards a strong military organization.
Under the pretense of making
strong, manly men of them, they in

GROWERS MUST PICK

There are thousands of boxes of
apples hanging On the trees now that

now. They are already WATERFORD

In fact, nearly every apple is ready
to pick now, unless it be the Yellow

Unless matters are hurried along
a great deal faster than they have
been up till this time, there is like
ly to be serious trouble, not only in
getting the apples off the trees in
proper condition but also in the mar
keting of them.
Either matter will be delayed to
such an extent that when the max

with such a rush that it will cause

DRY FARMING AND EDUCATION

A new type of American farmer
is appearing in the semi-arid west.
And with the appearance of this new
type scientific agriculture is receiv-
ing a new impetus. Successful dry
farming requires initiative and in
telligence and only those who possess
these qualifications feel the lure of
the semi-arid west.
The dry farming movement is di-
rectly associated with scientific agrl-
culture and this cooperation is caus-
ing the agriculturist to take keener
interest in education. Hence comes
the demand that rural schools in
clude courses of agriculture and that
only those teachers be employed who
are in sympathy with and possess
some knowledge of scientific agri-
culture.
This is a move in the right direc-
ton. The demand for teachers hav-
ing special knowledge, however,
should be accompanied by a DISPOSE
ton to pay rural teachers higher
wage than has been customary. The
rule should work both ways.
