HON. B. 4. PACKARD
 ARIZONA PIONEER
Sees the Dawnins of Brighter
 Day.

B. A. Packard. Douglas banker Arizona pioneer and booster, favorit, of the solid wing of his party for tn, democratic nomination for governor for nearly two score years cattlemar and Indian fighter of COchise, cam, to Phoenix yesterday from his rancI near Tempe.
 The rugged Arizona pioneer unhesl- tatingly approved the course of tn, Republican President Taft and making it necessary to eliminate the recal of the judges form the Arizona con stitution before statehood shall he ac- complished.
 ''I am for statehood, first, last and all the time," said MT. Packard with emphasis" but rather than have such a thing as the judges of our state made the creatures of an inflamed public passion I would rather have Arizona remain a territory indefinitely I have been against the thing from the beginning We would probably have had statehood months ago had it not been for the course of q lot of selfish agitators, and q whole lot of them were not labeled democrats either. In fact, the loudest mouthed of the lot were republicans
 But it look now as though we are going to be state very soon. That is the complexion Ur the news from Washington, and I believe August : will see the dawning of a wonderfully bright day in the birth of Arizona SIS the fortv-eighth state Statehood has brought a period of great development and prosperity to every other terri tory admitted in the past and as Arizona and Ne WMeXico are the very last on the map to be admitted, their share of initial prosperity should bc more than usual. This is logical conclusion. for it follows that because capital has had immense returns as the result of investment following &d- mission to statehood in the past. it will be eager to seize the last oppor- tunity Uncle sam has to offer along that line"
 Speaking of the railroad situation MT. Packard declared his belief that the Fl Paso and Southwestern road would very soon commence the ex- tension from Fairbanks to Tucson and in the end to Phoenix.
 Tn my opinion the work will be commenced very soon and pushed tc completion at the earliest possible date, or will be abandoned altogether said Mir Packard. "The road is owned by the Phelps-Dodge interests and they are not the kind that indulge in wild talk. I believe the railroads are fully alive to the possibilities oi Arizona as d prospective field fol profitable development, and once statehood is accomplished big things may be looked for in the railroad line Statehood may be looked upon as practically accomplished when the senate passes the Nelson amendment August T. Of course the vote of the people is to be reckoned with, but I cannot conceive of such piece of folly as the repudiation of the suggestion of the president and con- gress that the recall of the judiciary be eliminated in order that statehood be actually accomplished"

 Also beginning this morning, and continuing to August 22, train No. 1 leaving Phoenix at 7:45 a. m. will leave instead at 10:45 a. m.
 The big bridge across the Colorado at Topac is being strengthened by an immense concrete pier under the cen ter of it's main span. the improvement costing S1OO,000. In order to reach bed rock the company engineers have had to cXcavate at great cost over eighty eet below the bed of the river.

EGYPTIAN COTTON As
 4 VALLEY PRODUCT
Walter J. Pepper is Experimenting With View of Raising it on
 Large Scale.

Walter J. Pepper yesterday brought to The Republican office a couple of ! cotton plants of the Egyptian variety, two and a half months old from the seed and as big as umbrella trees. Mir. Pepper is an expert on cotton as he has spent most of his life in the cotton growing country. He is fully convin- ced that there is no better crop for the Salt river valley. ana that the Egyp- tian cotton, which is the most valuable of all varieties, is well adapted to this soil and climate
 MT. Pepper came here from Dover, Delaware, last Thanksgiving day and has been thankful ever since that he di6 so. He thinks it is the finest coun- try in the world and he can hardly realize how he ever managed to enjoy life at all, before he came to Arizona He bought the Frank Avis place north of the city, for home. and before he gets through with 1t he expects to have a ranch and make a lot more money to put with the little chunk he brought with him. He says that for clean cut, closely figured business opportunities he never saw or heard of place that appeals more than this valley to q con servative business man.
 Mir Pepper Is q southerner He was born in Alabama, went to Louisiana and then to other places in the south until he struck the trail that led to Dover, whence he made the big jump to Arizona. MT Pepper knows about all there is to know about cotton from the growers standpoint. He was rais- ed in a cotton atmosphere. has talked cotton. dreamed cotton, and sometimes on a dry day he has spit cotton. Hay ing the courage of his convictions he proposes to try raising cotton.
 He has begun by planting little on the home place as an experiment and when he has demonstrated satisfactori- ly the things he is now convinced of. he will go into the business on a large scale, either alone or with somebody. He prefers an arrangement by which several growers may go in together that they may build their own gin and handle the crop at the lowest possible expense. and independently. For the time being he is pleased with this years experiments and is also interest ing himself in other valley enterprises.

IRON AND STEEL IN WORLDS
 RAIL WAYS,

An interesting question is the ton mage of iron and steel used in railroad construction in the world" says the Iron Age. No accurate estimate can be made, for the reason that conditions vary so widely with different railroads according to the character and density of traffic. Tn the Cape to Cairo project, for instance, a single track line is amply sufficient, and the rolling stock per mile of line Is necessarily light So it was originally with our own transcontinental lines On the other hand, in the eastern part of this coun- try we have four-tra roads with many cars and locomotives per mile of road, and q similar condition prevails in England. For a rough estimate of the world, however. the proportions obtaining fin the United States might not prove to be far wrong. They are substantially as follows, per mile of line: Miles of track, fl; locomotives,
 25; cars, 9.4.
 "On the basis of these data it may be estimated roughly that in the United States there are tied up in the railroads the following tonnages of iron and steel: Rails, 45,000,000 tons; bridges, buildings, etc, 10000, 900 tons; locomo- tives. 5,0OO,0OO tons; cars. 25,OOO,000 tons: total. s5.OOO.OOO tons For the re- mainder of the world. allowing for the lesser use of steel cars and steel bridge material, q rough estimate would be: Rails. 70,00O,O00 tons; bridges. build ings, etc, 1O,OOO,00O tons; !ocOmoties. a 0f0 Sl0O tons. cars 95 GOO 00O tons total, 15,00O,O00 tons. This would make a grand total of about 200.000,000 tons of iron and steel tied up in the railroads of the world. exclusive, of course, of electric and minor systems. The worlds annual production of pig iron has latefy increased to 6O,OOO. 900 tons, having been 40. 100000 tons in 1900. Evidently large proportion of the production has gone into railroads. but the railroad consumption has not been of overshad owing proportions. as is occasionally assumed"

CONTAINS IDEA ON
 HANDLING SALOONS
Do Not Give Poor Man Chance to Say
 That Only the Rich Cnn Pat 4# rOnixc Them

P. G. Bowman. who led the fight for prohibition in Jefferson county in 1907, Is now satisfied that prohibition has failed.
 He is in favor of the return of the H. censed saloon under proper regulation. In order that the blind tiger' might be put out of business entirely. he is opposed to any law which would tend to dissatisfy any element of society.
 Before leaving for Montgomery yester- day. where he will remain during the en- tire session of the legislature. he said:
 ''The licensing of several saloons in ths heart of the city will cause the poor man to consider such saloons as the clubs of the rich man. And he will continue his patronage to the blind tiger favor a bill permitting the operation of several wholesale houses in Birmingham, these to sell 'unbroken goods in accordance with the pure food regulations and the licensing of cafes and hotels for the sale of beers and light wines; and the licens- ing of about 75 saloons in Birmingham, the license to be about 5000 to $1250.
 "These saloons should be compelled to observe the early closing laws and the laws preventing the sale of liquor to minors and habitual drunkards. The law should deal mercilessly with those vio- lating this regulation"

CURTIS COMING TO
 AID FAIRGROUNDS
ATHLETIC CLUB WILL TAKE UP MOVEMENT WHICH TT IS BE- LEVIED WILL RESULT IN MUCH GOOD FOR BIRMINGHAM

Henry S. Curtis, who with Dr. Gulick, organized the Fairgrounds Association of America, and who is now connected with Clark university of Worcester, Mass, will be in Birmingham toward the end ol March for the purpose of aiding In put ting the playground movement in Bir- mingham on a strong and permanent basis.
 It is probable that MT. Curtis will be induced to remain in Birmingham as long as three weeks. The playground idea has taken firm hold in Birmingham and a little impetus in the right direction is expected to accomplish great results. The arrangements with MT. Curtis are in the hands of the Birmingham Athletic club, The club believes that a result Of MT. Curtis visit to Birmingham will be the criticism of existing playgrounds and the formulation of g plan for future de- velopments, greatly increased contribu- tions from private sources and the event ual support of the playgrounds by the city.
 MT, Curtis Is one of the playground au- thorities in the United States and in ad- dition to featuring in many cities and before the student bodies of many great universities, has appeared in foreign countries. Many of the most able play ground associations in the United States were the result of his efrort. The Ath- letic club, in bringing MT. Curtis to Bir- ningham, expects to put the local asso- citation on such firm basis that more grounds than exist today will be put aside for the development of the young and for the pleasure of the children of comparatively poor parentage.
 In connection with the visit of MT. Curtis the club will arrange for a series of athletic tests and games to be entered into by the young boys and older ath- letes of Birmingham.
