It has also se- cured reductions in rates on carload lots of material removed from Yuma to Florence for use on the new terri torial penitentiary at that place.
 An adjustment was secured by the commission of alleged unfair, discrim- nation made by the Fl Paso & Southwestern company in favor oi Fl Paso in the matter of rates oh sh pments of fruit to Bisbee, the rail way company having agreed to rem edy the cause of the discrimination. Other adjustments were secured on complaints Of various shippers aI Stafford and Florence.
 Formal complaints have been iu- stituted against the Wells, Fargo to secure a reduction of rates from eastern and western points to Phoenix for race horses partici- pating in the exhib' tions at the an nual fair: olso, to obtain a reduction in express rates. so as 10 make such rates throughout the territory con form to those to and from Phoenix. Tempe and Mesa, as established on the ordtr made by the interstate com merce commission.
 4 complaint has been prepared for before the interstate commission to secure a re- duction Of rates on four and meal from Santa Fe stations Tn Coiorad9 to Clifton.
 On Juner6 6, 1910, the interstate com merce commission rendered a favor able decision in the case of the County Commercial club against the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railway company ct al, af- TectiDg first class rates from points in eastern defined territories to Phoenix The decision will become effective on December 1, 1910. By Is terms it applies only to Phoenix, ret the principle decided will apply O all point sin the territory, so that | is the expectation of the comm's 'ion that the railways affected wi sdjust class rates from Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City to all ship yi8g points within the territory, so Is to conform to the ruling Of the interstate commerce commission.
 In connection with the work of he railway commiss on 1t may be of interest to note that the total rail 'oad milage within the territory is ..041.02 miles. There were construct sd in the territory during the year ,15153 miles, not including spurs, 1 witches and private lines.
 Territorial industrial School.
 Conditions at the territorial indus 1 rial school are practically unchang- d since my last report. There has l been but a slight increase in the | number of inmates, the records now showing 62 pupils, of which 5s are boys and 4 girls.
 While the equipment of the school 1 s wholly inadequate and it's sur 'oundings not well adapted to its | the progress of the inmates l turing the year has been marked. l Particular care is taken to safeguard l he health of the inmates, and the i Tear's record shows but little sick | less. The success of the manage nent in the reformation and training i If the youths committed to it has | been highly gratifying and warrants |
 
 equipment, including shops. etc, to l lfford instruction along practical i ines. do mt deem the present site i ! proper one and believe the institn- | ion should be moved into a farming | community, where these things could | 1e provided sor and a broader range l ,f instruction made available

For the past 1 'ear it has been crowded to its ut 1 most capacity. every room being oc- supied, including many of the com nittee rooms q the legislative halls. l Some steps should be taken in the ] rery near future looking to the cree ] ion of another wing on the rear cf he present building
 With each year the grounds be 'ome more extensive as well as more
