Tardy Acknowledgements.

Some month ago The Republican pointed out that. in the event of Mir. Frank NJ Murphy's success in financing the proposed Port Lobos railroad it would prove to be an ex- ceedingly valuable line for Phoenix and the Salt River valley; that this short line to tidewater would do more to settle the rate question" and give the people of this section low freight rates than all other agencies com bined. It begins to look as if Mir. Murphy will succeed in building from Tucson to Port. Lobos, at any rate, and there is no doubt of his desire to bring the line to a Phoenix con- nection. As We suggested at the time, all the logic of the situation pointed and the Fl Paso X Southwestern in terests. in the extension of the Fl Paso & Southwestern to Phoenix and the construction of the line to Port
 Lobos.
 And as we had the pleasure of in- forming our readers some weeks ago. the extension of the Fl Paso & South western appears to be a practical cer- tainty. What steps, if any, the peo- pie of this community may be asked later on to take in order to assure the new line to Fl Paso and the line to Port Lobos without delay. we don't know.
 Incidentally, it is refreshing to note that a local paper. which for more
 than a year has devoted large pro- portion of it's space to personal abuse of MT. Murphy, to misrepresentation of his attitude toward the people of Phoenix, and to demagogic denuncia- tion of railroads generally-a paper which has done all it could to create an impression abroad that the people here don't want railroads and are un- | friendly to investors in railroads-has been forced to acknowledge that MT. Murphy is doing another great work for Arizona in undertaking to build the Port Lobos line. By and by, we suppose, it will be acknowledged, also. that Col. Randolph has undertaken a project of immeasurable value to Phoenix in trying to build through the Gila canyon to San Carlos and to Lordsburg and Durango.

Progressive England.

The news from London that the British government proposes to modify the 'declaration' of the king wherein he ',abjures the pope" and makes oth- CT expressions offensive to the Roman Catholics, is pleasing evidence of the growth of religious toleration and amity. generation ago such a pro- posal would have inflamed the Pro- testants of the United Kingdom.
 The really free" people of the world are the citizens Of the United States of America and the citizens of the British empire. And it is notable that it is in these lands of libery that religious freedom and real Christian ity most abound. The bigot is most at home where public schools. and in- dependent newspapers are scarce.

jobbers, and that the coast jobbers are solidly lined up against the in terior jobbers.
 It may turn out, as the coast ship pers fear. that if the law should be changed so as to force the carriers to give the same rates to Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Reno and spokane that are enjoyed by Los Angeles, Sah Francisco Portland and Seattle, the result would be an increase of the rates to the coast from the east. But the shippers of the interior are quite ready to meet that situation. It is true. as frequently stated by the in terstate commerce commission, that any particular schedules of rates as by discrimination in favor of one sec- tion of the country against the other. If the higher charge for the short haul is abolished it will of course result in a great increase of busi- ness for the merchants of the interior, and corresponding loss of business for the coast jobbers.
 As to the justice of charging the interior higher rates than are charged the coast cities. the people of the back country" do not forget what was said by James J. Hill when he was building the Great Northern into Spokane. He denounced as outrageous the practice of charging the through rate plus the local haul back" but as soon as his line was completed to Seattle he forced Spokane to pay him this rate-and does so still. If con- gress will only knock out the long and short haul" heresy and enact a law placing the interior shippers on an equality with those of the coast, the people of the west will not care much about anything else that goes into the bill.

The Rates for Lights.

It is to be hoped that the reported fore the congressional committee, Tuesday, to the effect that the local light company is ready to make con- sessions to the city in the matter of rates, will lead to an early and satis- factory encouragement of schedules.
 The movement for a municipally owned lighting plant gained practical ly all it's force from the general con- viction that the light company's rates for service were excessively high. A very large proportion of the affirma- tive vote cast at the preliminary cleo ton came from citizens who would not vote for bonds for a competing plant except as a last resort. But these citizens. and still others, will vote for a municipal plant when the time comes for vote, if meanwhile tory concessions. It may be said with reason that the company could not consistently propose a readjustment of rates while the late campaign was on. But that reason no longer exists. Regardless of the action of congress on the pending bill, the company ought to make it known at an early day just what reductions it is willing 10 grant

TWENTY-FIVE CENTS
 TO STOP THAT ITCH

Eczema sufferers wno have never tried the oil of wintergreen compound (known as D. D. D. Prescription), are now enabled to get a trial bottle of this recognized: remedy at only 25 cents. This is a special offer. this compound having sold for over ten years in s1.00 bottles.
 The oil of wintergreen as com pounded with thymol and other heal ing ingredients in D. D. D. Prescription is now recognized by scientists in both America and Europe. It takes away the itch the very moment it is washed into the skin and the cures all seem to be permanent. At any rate, we ASSURE you that the itch is allayed INSTANT LY; we know this and VOUCH for 1t. Hence, we specially urge a trial-now while the patient can get bottle at only 25 cents. Be sure to ask for the oil as properly compounded under the name of D. D. D. Prescription.

The Long and the Short Haul.

For some weeks the country has been treated to the unusual spectacle of simultaneous debates in the two houses Of congress on the same sub- ,ject: the administrations railway reg ulatiop bill. It is customary for a bill to be discussed and passed in one house before it is taken up in the other. but this custom was not fol- lowed in dealing with the railroad bill-both houses went at the subject hammer and-tongs at the same time wire first Hereafter. therefore, the senate will have before it the Aldrich bill. which it has been discussing so long, and the bill passed by the house on Tuesday.
 But little opposition has developed in either house to MT. Taft's proposal of a court of commerce" for the ex- peditious trial of shippers complaints, and it is reasonably sure that the measure which finally reaches the president will embody a provision for the new court. The questions which have occasioned the most debate were covered by the sections providing for the ownership of competing lines when 51 per cent of the stock of such competing lines is already owned by a parallel road-a provision which MT. Taft has insisted is necessary for the protection of minority shareholders and the various amendments making it unlawful for a carrier to charge more for a short haul than for a long haul. The chief objection urged to the competing line proposition has been that it would repeal the sherman antitrust law So insistent has been this objection that it is altogether un- likely that the bill. when enacted. will permit railway company to acquire the ownership of a competing line.
 So far as the west is concerned, the most interesting question, by far, that has been debated is the long and short haur' problem Senator Hey burn. Senator Smoot. and other sena- tors from the mountain states and the middle west, have argued with great ability for the abolition Of the carriers right to charge more for the short than for the long haul. This question. as our readers know, lies at the bottom of the whole rate con- troyersy in the west. The trans continental lines charge the shippers of the mountain towns more for car rying freight from the east than they charge for the same freight carried to the cities of the Pacific coast In many cases the rate charged the in terior points is the through rate to the coast plus the local rate back. The carriers defend this system on the ground that their rates to the coast cities are made to compete with ocean traffic, and that much of 1t is not remunerative. Senator Hepburn very clearly argued. however, that It is reasonable to suppose that the rates for this through traffic. which comprises the great bulk of the busi- ness, is profitable, or the rates would be raised. He placed his finger on a keynote, in fact, when he pointed out that these discriminatory rates have been developed to oblige the coast

curities' market is having the benefit of other general considerations. It was strengthened today by the casing of the money markets. The private dis count rate in Berlin was marked down a fraction and London cables pointed to the likelihood of a reduction in the official discount rate of the Bank of Engiand tomorrow.
 In New York demand for sterling eX- change touched s4.S5 3-5. the lowest of the year with some subsequent re- cCvery. A good deal of attention was paid to the copper market and there were many rumOrs of developments in that trade. Official information of copper transactions beyond the period ical publication of the statistics of the Copper Producers Association is not to be had. The price of the metal advsn- ced again here, but fell back in Lon don.

New York, May 1.-The persistence with which stocks were absorbed today stiffened speculative confidence and formed ths tone of the market. The sources of the buying were not always manifest, and it was at times by speculative selling to realize profits on the recent advance. Such conspicuous market leaders as the Hartman Paci- flies. Northern Pacific, Chesapeake & Ohio, and at times United States Steel were held back by realizing sales of this kind.
