INTERSTATE CON-
 MERGE COMMISSION
Railroads Find it Expedient to Comply With the Demands
 of the Commission

The Interstate Commerce Commission has demonstrated again that with the power to restrain the railroads from com hitting acts which it may believe to be illegal, or even against public policy, it need not always exercise that power. The rail roads find it expedient to comply with the demands of the Com mission without compelling it to resort to legal process. This was exempli6ed recently when the Commission protested against the announded intention of the railroads reaching the Jersey shore, -the Central New Jersey. the Delaware, the Pennsylvania. the Lehigh, the New York, On tario and Western and others, of increasing the communication rates to New York City from 10 to 20 per cent. After a conference with Chairman Knapp of the Commission all of the roads ex- cept the Erie agreed to postpone putting the increase into effect until the Commission could have a hearing on the question. That night a restraining order was se- cured against the Erie, whose increased rates were to have been made operative that night at l2 O clock. On the following Mon- day, -the next legal day The Erie withdrew it's rates.
 It Is estimated that the increa- ses would mean an additional revenue offrom $5O,0OO to S1OO. 900 a month in the passenger receipts of each of the roads in- terested.

U NLAW E U L
 DEMURRACE
Suit Which Reeulted Favor ably to the Government
 at Philadelphia.

The largest rebates for which prosecution was ever instituted were those involved in the suit which resulted favo1a ably to the Government at Philadelphia on June 15. The Bethlehem Steel Go. was indicted on 97 counts for receiving rebates from the Phil adelphia & Reading Railway Go and on 63 counts for receiving rebates from the Leh1gh Valley Railroad Go. One indictment a. gaInst the Philadelphia & Read ing Ky. Go. contained 63 counts, the other 12 counts. One indict- ment against the Lehigh Valley Railroad contained 29 counts, the other 97 counts. All defend ants were convicted on allcounts.
 The amount of demurrage un lawfully cancelled in these cases was $113, ,36O by the Lehigh Valley Railroad and $49,592 by the Philadelphia & Reading Ry Go.
 This was the first conviction in which the law as to rebating was applied to the cancellation of demurrage charges.
 The first time any railroad was ever prosecuted for charg- ing too much was when an in- dictment was secured recently at New Orleans against a railroad for making a charge for storage on hay before the cars contain ing the hay had reached their destination.
 The Pennsylvania Railroad was recently indicted in Chicago for destroying way bills. The law requires that the railroads must preserve their records, and the Commission, learning that certain way bills had been des- troyed, invoked the law against the railroad guilty of violating this provision of the statue.

Will the taxpayers ot Arizona | be Init hard" when statehood | comes? Is a question that is in- teresting many citizens just now. Some rather wild predictions have been made, to the effect that under the state form of gov ernment the burden of taxation will be much heavier, but there seems to be little actual basis of such prophecies. As a matter of fact practically everything will depend upon the personnel of the new state government. An extra vagant government can easily run our taxes up enormously. On the other hand, if we are for tunate enough to elect legislators who will be governed by a spirit of economy, and if we elect capa- ble state officers, there will be no reason for any increase of the tax rate.
 It IS true that the expense ac- count for salaries and so forth, will be far larger than under the territorial form; but the state will also have larger revenues, which will to a large extent off set this account.
 Uncle Sam now pays most of the salary list. The additional annual expense cf the state fer salaries will be approximately, say
 For the governor-$5,O 5, ,OO0 Secretary ot state ,OO0 Other territorial officers in ad- dition to those now paid from the territorial treasury-1 1000 Judges of the district courts(5) -.-...-------....------.------.2O, 2O,OOO Justices of the supreme court
 ------.------------ ------5, ,OOO Legislature, on basis of $6O,0O0
 for each biennial session 30, ,OOO
 Total -..---.-.-.-----$ $73, ,O00
 It will be noted that we have allowed but $5,OOO for the ad. ditional expense for the supreme court. The territory now pays $1O,OOO a year, total, to the five justices of the supreme court, the remainder of their salaries being paid by the United States. We shall need but three justices of the state supreme court, since they will not do trial court work, and if we pay them $5.OOO each. the total salary expense for the supreme bench will be $15, 1000 a year, as against $1O,OOO now; an increase of 5000.
 Toward offsetting this increas- ed expense, the state will get in additional taxes from the main line of the Santa Fe railroad, say, $3O,S8O. This road has a length of 3S6,76 miles. It is now exempt from taxation under a federal statute, but voluntarily pays taxes to the several coun- ties through which it runs, ave ragged for the several counties, this amount to taxation on a valuation of approximately $5,- 900 a mile When the road IS as sessed for taxation by the state, assuming that the valuation will be $15,O0O a mile, the same as the Southern Pacific, the in- creased valuation will amount to $3.S6O.OOO, which on the ba- sis of an so cent tax rate for the state would yield an additional revenue of $50, ,SSO.
 The account would yield. therefore-lncreased expense be- cause of

A POST CARD SHOWER.

The fact that George washington
was not the only one of Americas
greatest men to be born on February
22d, was brought to light last Tues
day when the exceptionally large
influx of mail at the local office
caused some of our citizens to in
vestigate the cause, much against the
will Of our genial postmaster. De-
spite his utmost efforts, however, the
investigating committee ferreted out
the fact that it was Mr.. Yager's 66th
birthday and his friends from far
and near had taken advantage Of
the fact to send him pleasant re-
minder in the form of post card.
Mr.. Yager received nearly 225 of
these missives, but that is not all,
for one of them contained a more
substantial reminder in the form Of
an order for $500. Another package
when opened revealed a gallon of
maple syrup and now we suppose
that he will regale himself with
buckwheat cakes and lasses for the
rest of the winter.
