SALT RIVER VALLEY
 MUST HAVE IT ALL

The board of governors of the Water Users Association at their meeting at Phoenix last week, de- cided that no water should be di verted for the purpose of irrigating small tracts of land in Coconino county. MT. Hills theory that lands in the reservoir district hav- ing filed on the stream flow are en- titled to the run off of the entire watershed.
 The case that seemed to irritate the association was on Oak Creek in the Coconino forest. An appli-. cation had been made for a ditch privilege by farmers on the Verde into which Oak Creek empties, and the application was endorsed by the secretary of agriculture who ap- piled to the interior department for the privilelge. It was then referred to the recla nation service and MT. Hill refused as above indicated.
 His refusal of course was not on the ground that Oak Creek water swells the reservoir supply, as it empties into the Verde and the Verde into the Salt River about forty miles below the reservoir, but because the valley lands want to appropriate all waters of Verde as we'll as the Salt River, and of course MT. Hill wants them to have it-it doesn't make so much difference about few farmers up in Coconino county.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I wish to speak about one Of the most
important studies of the day which is
slowly but surely beginning to find its
way into the best and highest schools
and institutions of the day. Why
should Newark fall back? That study
is elocution.
Here We are in a stage of rapid de-
velopment. There is no other study
needed so much, no other study which
cover so many branches of training as
e%locution. Both boys and girls need
it. Many cannot stay the four years
to complete a high school course. but
were he or she only to get one year of
good-solid stuff-no cramming-some-
thing hat help him to develop him
self in later years, then Il say, and SO
do others, INTRODUCES a study that will
development cram. l have noticed in
some of the papers of nearby cities that
the boards are going to cut out some
studies, but do not know which to cut
out. Very good, but If they do, as they
certainly should, then put a good study
like elocution in place of one taken out.
Such a study embraces another very
good study-English. French is all
right, but I can't see where it is needed.
Not very man high school pupils will
travel abroad and those who are rich
enough will not enter high school, but
will go to a private school.
Therefore, citizens get together and
voice my sentiments. Elocution in the
high school! H. B. s.

A landlord in Chicago recently had
an experience which was unique
despite tho fact that a Chicago
landlords life is not without daily
and unusual incident.
This man, after his kind, went to
the abode of one of his tenants-a
woman of sudden and violent tenn
per-and during the alteration
which followed his arrival struck
her in the head with a Ratchet.
Instead Of being stunned or
abashed by this attack, the lady
tenant was so Infatuated that she
forced her visitor to the head of
the stairs and kicked him down.
For the benefit of the impatient
reader, 1t might be well to state here
that the unusual part of the story

Following up her successful sortie,
the lady ran down stairs and leaped

aged finally to persuade her to de-
sist. When they knew the facts

considerable enough to use the blunt

q ADMINISTRATIONS BELATED ACTION

Y HY the government should have let thirty days elapse De-
WV fore filing a petition with the courts to enjoin the twenty
five Western railroads from increasing their freight rates
has 10 satisfactory explanation. The railroads took their time, ana
made no secret of their purpose. They debated and agreed upon
the increased rates, and finally sent out the new tariffs to shippers
They received no hint from Washington that they would be inter
fered with. On the contrary, the assurances from their agents then
showed that the President and his attorney general saw nothing IN
their proposed step that called for government interference. There
were numerous protests by shippers sent to Washington, but they
passed unnoticed and Enacted upon until after a strong delegation
of Western shippers interviewed the encouragement and after a
frebrand resolution was flung into the Senate by LaFonette. Ii
the purpose to block the railroads was entertained right along, why
the injustice of delay until after the shippers had all been furnished
with the tariff of new rates and when interference would cause the
greatest amount of embarrassment for the railroads?

THE TOURIST sMUGGLERS.

ia vIDENTLY it is only because of greater watchfulness at the
IL New York custom house that so many people of means and
social standing returning from abroad are detected in SNUG
Cling. Formerly smuggling by returning tourists was easy enough.
A banknote slipped to an Inspector was generally a sufficient in
surance against search. What the government has lost in customs
dues in this way cannot be computed, but the amount is far up
in the millions. The arrests of wellto-do smugglers will have a
wholesome deterrent effect upon the European tourists this year
when they are homeward bound.

TO OWN SOUTH JERSEY WATERSHED

m BOUT thirty thousand acres of the Mullica river watershed
nv in South Jersey were acquired by a Philadelphia capitalist
some years ago, with the object to use the watershed for "a
water supply for Philadelphia. About the same time John Bartlett,
of New York, had a scheme for a big reservoir at Upper Montclair
for a water supply for New York from the Passaic watershed.
BarHetts scheme was turned over to the East Jersey Water Com
pany. Wharton, the Philadelphia capitalist, was unable to carry
out his purpose, and when he died the 10000 acres were left to his
heirs. The water company that attempted last year to force a
contract upon Camden and laid out plans for supplying all the
municipalities south of Trenton proposed to secure and use the
MulIica watershed, but the Wharton acres are now offered to the
State of New Jersey for water and forest conservation purposes.
Governor Fort visited the tract this week, and favors the purchase,
which would be strictly in accordance with enlightened State policy.
In a few years the South Jersey towns will need the water supply
acquire it.

WHY RAILROAD STOCKS cRUMBLED.

I'D ABROAD stock prices crumbled in Wall Street yesterday
Jim with the news that the Encouragement had decided to en-
join the Western railroads from increasing their freight
rates, as well they might. The increases, if made, would, it is esti-
mated, give to the railroads in increased income and increased stock
values, a half a billion of wealth. AS the government had made, no
sign of opposition or disapproval, it was taken for granted that
the rates would be increased as per arrangement. Perhaps it is
fortunate for shippers and unfortunate for the Western railroads
that this is an important political year and the administration is
not in the best of odor with voters generally. And, then, there
was insurgent Senator IaFolette digging another hole for the adj
miniatration.

NO CORPORATION TAX DECISION YET.

01Ta HE United States Supreme Court is a leisurely tribunal entirely
unaffected by current events or necessities. The financial
and business world has been looking anxiously forward for
some time for a decision by the court on the question of the corpora
ton tax, and just when a decision is expected the court calmly
announces that the case will go over to the fall term for reargument.
But the United States Supreme Court cannot afford to be in error
1t can afford to take its time, no matter what interests have to wait
or what the effect may be of the courts delay.

suggests street Car improvements.
To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Now that we have discovered that
street-car straps are germ-laden and
that disease may &c with every FIVE
cent fare is 1t not time to abolish the
strap altogether? Disinfecting the
straps daily Is a mighty good idea, but
If the company ran as many cars as are
needed each passenger would have a
seat, and there would be no further
use for straps.
1t is hard to understand why any
civilized community t~olerates the con-
duct of the Public Service Corporation.
During the rush hours we no longer
know where to wait for a car The
regular stopping places are ignored and
a psychological study of the inspectors
mind has to be made before we can de-
termine where we are to board the car.
These pay-as-you-enter cars un-
doubleday increase the revenue of the
car company. Why. then. do they not
give the public a share Of the extra
profits in the shape of improvements?
