DOUBLE TRACKING
 PROGRESSING NICELY

The first twenty miles out Of Winslow is graded, track laid and ballaated, and will be put in oper- ation st once From Flagstaff to Williams the work is about 60 per cent completed. From Flagstaff to Agassiz the grading is completed by the L. J. Smith Go. direct, and from Agassiz to Riordan. about forty days more work is necessary. From Riordan to Bellemont the L. J. Smith Go. have, with B. B. Crosby, the work in about the same condition. From Bellemont to Arey and about a mile westward the work is graded, track laid and ballasted From here 10 Maine fully 80 per cent of the work has been completed by T. c, Snyder and the Ohio Construction Go. From Maine to Challender about 5G per cent of the grade is finished but from Challender to Dayern practically nothing is done. With the exception of two rocks cuts between >Davern and Williams the grade is about finished. but these are big ones and will hold the fsfcse here for at least ninety good work ing days. Twenty bridges have been completed by T, Maddock, who is working on four of the six re- maining ones.
 The desire on the Railroad Co.'S. part to finish the work is very evident. as they are pushing every thing possible and laying track under Chas Johnson as fast as the grade is finished Taking every thing into consideration, we can see no reason why the work of grading should not all be compile ted by March 1st, 1911. and trains running from here to Flagstaff on the double track by June 1st.
 From Williams to Supai the work is practically finished, and from Supai west the construction under Sharp, Fellow on the big change of line to, Fairview is pro- gressing nicely. while most of the work from Ash Fork to the east is completed. ~

Supreme Court is to Give
Result at 400
O'clock


Oklahoma City, July 27.-In was Of
iicialIy announced by the state SUI
preme court Tuesday that decision in
the state capital case would be handed
down at o'clock this afternoon. The
question to be decided is on a writ
Of prohibition covering the question:
Has District Judge Huston, Of the Lo-
gan county district court, the right or
the power to restrain Governor Has
kell and other state officials from rel
moving their Offices and records to OK.
lahoma cityg Which was the intended
action of Governor Haskell some time
ago.
The court will not touch on the point
as to whether Guthrie or Oklahoma
City is the legal capital Of Oklahoma.
Should the state supreme court dis
solve the temporary injunction against
state officials additional suits and in
functions. 1t is said, will likely be in
stituted in the federal courts.
In case the action Of the district
court is sustained, Guthrie will remain
the state capital and the case will go
to trial on its merits.
Should Oklahoma City win in the
case it is likely the state officials viii
move here the last OF this week.
Governor Haskell has not appointed
the capital commission, however, all
three Of the likely members are in
Oklahoma City, awaiting the action Of
the governor. 1t is probable that the
governor has been waiting to hear the
decision of the supreme court before
appointing the commission. Some say
that he will delay until after the pri-
mary election, August 2.
