LOWER FREIGHT RATES
 FOR BUCKEYE BARLEY
Reduction of practically 50 Per Cent
 From Points on That Line.

Freight rates on barley from points on the Buckeye extension of the Ari- zona Eastern system to Phoenix have been cut in half. The change becomes effective April A.
 When the Buckeye line was opened for traffic the rates published were all in the nature of an experiment. There had never been any railway freight service in that part of the country and the company did not know what rates were required to move the traffic It soon became evident that the rates on hay and barley were too high.
 Several months ago the freight on hay was cut in two. Now the barley rates have been reduced in the same ratio.
 From HasSayampa, the station at the end of the line, the freight is reduced from & per ton to s1.65; Buckeye. $2.SO to S1.fO: Norton, $2.65 to $115: Cashion. s1SO to soc. All these rates apply on carload shipments.
 Not a great amount of barley was shipped from the Buckeye valley to Phoenix last year. It is believed that

IMMIGRATION FROM AFRICA.

If the imagination be allowed to range over the facts discosed by the History of slavery in tine new world the dramatic magnitude of the great episode becomes almost oppressive. Weston, in the Progress of Slavery" GS5O. called attention to the fact that instead of AmeriCa's being settled by the European races, the truth really is, that America, including its islands, has been settled chiefly from Africa, and by negroes; and that prior ito the commencement of the present cen tury the number of negroes brought hithcr had probably exceeded the whole number of Europeans of all nationali- ties. who had emigrated hither, twenty fold. or even more" The EncylopeGIa Americana GS5D computed the negroes taken for transportation to the new world during the last three centuries at about 10000. .O00. of whom l5 or 20 per cent died on the passage. ."-Wintmop NJ Daniels in Atlantic Magazine.
