.DR. ALTON NOT YET
 "OUT OF COURT"
His Case Against Medical Board to
 Be Appealed.

headline of the story yesterday of the decision of judgment in the case of the application of pr R. A. Alton for a review of the proceedings of the board of medical examiners in revoking his license, stated that the matter was "out of court"
 The headline, Dr. aiton says, is calculated to leave an erroneous inn pression. There are two appeals be- fore him and the decision of the court of last resort and both of them will be employed if necessary to settle the question whether the Arizona board has the power which it has exercised. The case therefore is not likely to be out of court for some time to come.
 The same matter in another form is pending in the court of Justice John stone where complaint had been made on behalf of the board that the doctor was practicing without a license. That matter had been held up there for some weeks pending a settlement of the original proceeding

THE ROAD ID BUCKEYE
 BY FIRST OF AUGUST
Trains Will Rur to Agus Fria in
 Three Weeks.

C. ". Harris. with the construction force building the Buckeye and Phoe- nix railroad, spent yesterday in town. Mir. Harris said that the grading has been practically completed as far as the Auga Fria. though there are some gaps to be filled. but that can be done quickly. so quickly. in fact. that he be lieves a train will be run to the river by July |
 Beyond the river work will be still less difficult, so that there is abso- lutely no doubt that the line will be finished to it's destination by August l. when it must be done in order that the bonus may be secured.
 In all the history of railroad build ing. probably so many men and teams were never before employed on such a short stretch of road. But they were easily obtainable. for they had just fin ished work on the Parker cutoff and were quickly transferred to the new scene of operations. The force, big as it is. will be further increased this week
 It was the great size of the force that led to the suspicion that it was 'ipN AhtthuSh tp sup dA DuChtNt- Dul to continue building to the main line of the Southern Pacific near Gila City. However, a week ago, when Colonel Randolph was in town, he said that there would be no further building in that direction until after the work on the east side should be well under way
 Steel on the Phoenix Buckeye line has so far been laid only beyond the city limits. but that will be put down very fast once the grade is ready.

\ BUCKSKIN PONY
 WHICH WENT VERY FAST
He Also Lured Deputy Sheriff
 Adams Very Far.

| Speaking of wild goose chases. De- I putty Sheriff Adams returned from one about eleven o'clock on Saturday night It led him over a jaunt of thrty-five miles. Late in the after
 noon it was reported to the sheriff s office that an Indian had stolen d buckskin pony from the street and had last been seen hiking in a gen. eral easterly direction. It was ! thought that little promptness on the part of the sheriffs office would result in the early capture of the thief: he could not be more than half mile away.
 Deputy Adams had no time to make proper preparation for the chase by reading a chapter from The Memoirs of a Great Detective" nor had had he time to go home after his own trusty horse He went out to the edge of the plaza and the only horse that could be comandeered for the pur- suit was a 500-pound pony belonging to ten-y year-old boy. The saddle was boys saddle and the stirrups were attuned to the legs of a boy of that age. The deputy sheriff is more than six feet tall
 He mounted the pony and set out for the Tempe road, knowing that all Indians or nine out of ten of them leave town by that thOroughfare un- less they belong to the reservation be- low the city But this Indian had started east.
 In the outskirts of the town he got the first definite information regard ing the quarry. He was an Indian on a buckskin pony riding very fast Deputy Sheriff Adams rode on very fast. Two miles out he inquired again and a man had seen an Indian on a buckskin pony. riding very fastA At the halfway house the Indian was still on the buckskin pony and going some The same information was Ob- tained at Claysons ranch. It seemed as if everybody along the line of march had observed the Indian on the buckskin pony and had been struck by the rapidity of his progress But there was one man who had not seen the procession but he confessed to the officer that he had been asleep. He was not therefore in position to dispute that an Indian on buckskin pony had ridden that way and was riding fast
 The officer reached the reservation after nightfall when buckskin ponies could not well be distinguished from ponies of other colors. After making some inquiries of the Indians without result he determined to get into touch with the sherifCs office and gain more accurate description of the bucksitin pony The first telephone available was that of Jensen Stop ping there, MT Adams asked the of flee for complete specifications of the buckskin pony. He was told that the pony had been recovered and that the thief. Mauro Aguilar. was in jail He had .been captured on South Seventh avenue about the time Deputy Sheriff started in the wake of the Indian and the fast-going buckskin pony.
 On his return tO town the officer found the ten-year- boy waiting for his mount. He was peevish for boy of such tender years The of ficer gave him a dollar and a half for the use of his pony and regained his esteem.

Of ConSitio In the beginning with a
ratio OF one member to each thirty thou
sand population. The ratio based upon
the first census was one member for
81. 600. the same ratio prevailing on the
basis Of the second census. After the
third census was taken the ratio was
increased to one member for 5000; on
the basis OF the fourth census, one mem.
Der for 10000: nth census, one member
for 47,70O; sixth census, ona member for
20. $50; seventh census. one member for
93. 423; eighth census, one member for
127. $751; ninth censue one member for
ISL .425; tenth census. one member for
1901; eleventh census. one member for
liz, 1901: twelfth census, one member for
195. $40. The exact ratio for a membership
of 49, az proposed for the new House,
would be one member for 2f1, 100 inhab-
itants.
These figures eloquently attest to the
tremendous growth Of the United States
in century and a quarter. Had the
original ratio of one member for $1,000
inhabitants been continued the House Of
Representatives in the next Congress
would consist of about 3.O66 members.
AS it is, House Of 49, members will be
more or less unwieldy. and 1t is unfortu-
nate that a way Is not open to at least
the holding of the membership to the
present figure, or approximately 400. The
desire that is for the present animating
the apportionment bill trainers to save
the states from any curtailment Of con-
gressional representation will in the years
to come, IL then followed. give serious
trouble through the creation of popular

Democratic Tariff Differences.

Representative Ransdell Of Louisiana Is
right. The ways and means committee
OF the next House should be formed SO
as to insure a hearing in that body OF
the several views Of tariff reform which
are found in the democratic party.
On that subject Mr.. Ransdell divides
his party into three schools, or classes:
free traders. near-free traders and pro-
tectionists. That division will answer
for purposes Of discussion.
OF free traders. confessed and aggres-
sive. there are few. And we shall hear
little from them when the next House
begins work on the Payne law. As a
rule. they are ag1tators, not legislators,
and their work is on the outside of Con-
gress. Their part is to thump the rob-
Der barons in the press and on the
stump while a campaign is on and gen.
eralities are effective. Later. when gen
eralities must give way to practicalities.
they subside. It is their time for disap-
pearing. They take a header, and down
they go.
The near-free traders are more numer-
Gus, but are often disguised when Con-
gress is in action on the tariff. They
would like to see taxation reduced to the
bare needs of the government. but are
unable to work out the problem. Their
maxims all go to pieces in the presence
of trade statistics and trade demands.
The result is that they are often found
recorded in favor OF protective duties.
The protectionists are more numerous
still. Really. there are a great many OF
them. Every revision OF the tariff In
the past quarter century has revealed
the fact. They came out very openly
when the Payne bill was in the making.
In Congress and out, they wanted q
share" OF what was going, and not only
accepted it from the republicans, but
asked for It. But only a few were losi-
cal in the end. and supported in its en-
tirety what had been done. The late Mr..
McEnery Of Louisiana stood alone in
the Senate on that point He had asked
for protection on sugar. had got 1t. and SO
did unto others as at his request they
had done unto him.
Even after the ways and means COM
mittee shall have done its utmost to
harmonize all party differences in the
preparation Of a tariff measure, the real
situation will in some measure appear in
the open House debates. Tho republicans
have the Ieads, and will follow them for
political purposes. The Underwood bill
is not going to square with the demo-
cratic stump speeches OF the recent cam

Pensions for Firemen.

Last week fires occurred in Chicago and
Philadelphia that cost heavily in human
life. In each city members of the IRE
department We're crushed and burned to
death while engaged In their hazardous
task OF quenching the flames. The citi-
zens OF both Chicago and Philadelphia
have since paid tribute to these brave
men, upon whom the safety Of all dwell
ers in cities depends. Praises have been
printed In the warmest terms Atten-
ton has been called to the daily danger
in which the fire-fighters work. the small
pay they get. the lack of opportunities
for promotion or advancement in life.
What is to be the result? Will the tax
payers Of the cities realize that a service
Of SO much hazard and such vital neces-
sity is worthy Of richer rewards?
In this District the fremen are paid
small salaries and are kept constantly at
work in answering alarms, which, while
fortunately not as a rule serious, yet are
always possible summons to the most
deadly danger. That the local fire losses
are not larger is undoubtedly due to the
high efficiency OF the members Of the de-
partment. Should a disaster such as
those that occurred last week In Chicago
and Philadelphia occur In washington a
shameful condition of affairs would arise

For years an effort has been made in
