To File Suits to Recover Lands

 The Attorney General announces his in- tention of soon filing suits in equity against the Southern Pacific Railroad company and others for the recovery of vast areas of petroleum bearing lands in California. said to be worth more than $500. .090. GOO 'The legislation under which the patents were granted to the. railroad company, he says. excepted mineral lands other than iron or coal lands. The rail- road company contends. according to the Attorney General. that the exceptions in the patents are void.
 To investigate and preserve the rights of the government to the sources of water supply for the stupendous reclamation projects constructed or in contemplation. MT.

As a result of the decision of the su- rreme court holding that the commerce court has no power to review so-caileo negative" orders of the interstate com merce commission, the Attorney General recommends that the law be amended so that the commerce court VIII nave jdl is' diction to review all errors of law m respect to orders of the commission which deny relief of shippers or others, just as the court now has power to review or ders granting relief. The practical re- suit of the present situation. he ndds, IS that relief against errors of law by the commission is limited to the railroads and denied to the shippers.
 In connection with the suit against the Lehigh Valley Railroad company under the commodities clause of the interstate commerce act because of its alleged own ership and transportation of the coal or the Iehigh Valley Coal company, the At torney General says that the subsequent action of the railroad company in organ izing the Lehgh Valley Coal Sales com pany, will be submitted to the court soon to determine whether the situation now satisfies the demands of the law as in- terpreted by the supreme court of the United States.
 ''The situation is, he continues, that coal which is shipped over the Lehgh Valley railroad is mined by the Iehigh Valley Coal company. all of whose stock is owned by the railroad company, and is sold at the breakers to the Lehigh Valley Coal Sales company all of whose stock has been originally issued to and distributed among the stockholders of the railroad company, pro rata. but which company has separate offices from the railroad company. and separate direc- tors, and whose stock may be sold by the stock holders without regard to their continued holding of stock in the railroad company. By this arrangement both tho railroad company and the coal companies seem to have parted in good faith witt title 10 the coal before transportation begins, and. it is claimed. therefore, tha transportation is free from the proh ], bition of the commodities clause as con l strned by the supreme court,

TREES AS CIVIC ORNAMENTS
Here Is Case Where Municipal Con-
troll Would Seem to Be
Necessity.

Uniformity may be obtained only
through municipal control for when
planting is done by property owners
individual choice will naturally have a
wide range and fall upon a great va
riety Of subjects, resulting In the least
desirable effect possible except bare
streets. Where the building lots are
OF varying widths many Of the trees
Will be too close together, while none
are apt to be too far apart, as we very
generally oyerplant Here Is another
bad feature easily remedied by NUM-
clpal control through arbitrarily Civ.
ing the proper space to each tree. On
narrow streets home owners will per.
sist In planting trees suited only to
the wider thoroughfares, until q tall
furniture can can scarcely pass
through the green tunnel
Where sidewalks are narrow and
buildings close up to them, the trees
will have to be planted close to the
street curb, no matter how wide the
parkway, else the tops will have no
room to spread and all the trunks VIII
lean toward TIE street Here small
tree Is necessary, not only to avoid
the last-nctod effect, but also to pre-.
vent oycrshadoWinG the front win.
dows Of adjacent buildings In such
districts as the one under discussion
owners are also overfond Of fllling IN
the parkway with cement, leaving
too little breathing space for trees,
With parkings already too narrow the
whole space Is insufficient to allow Of
best growth Of trees and therefore
parklngs should not be unnecessarily
reduced Some eastern cities require
not less than six square feet about the
base Of each street tree
When trees are to be bought one
should be able to sharply distinguish
between young, thrifty stock ard de-
formed rootbound cripples which are,
unfortunately more common with our
unrsorymcn than vigorous, healthy
subjects, what use Is It 70 plant
trees whose roots have for years been
p'aying wcrry.Goround In a gallon
fruit can? Habits and forms GEod
white young are art TO endure, even
though somewhat modified, to the end
such trees should be- dug around after
being In position for year, and tho
top roots cut close to trunk, allow
ing deeper and better root system to
develop 10 not forget that all coudi'
tions may be improved and much bet
ter results obtained By dgsIng large,
deep holes for all trees,

LOSS BY FIRE.

The month OF January gave the year
1912 a bad start in the matter OF IRE
loss, the total contribution to the ash
heap in the United States and Canada
amounting to s35,653, 45O. compared
with $21,922,450 for January year
ago and Sl6.l75,4O0 for January, 1910.
The Equitable fire In New York city
is set down for $3,O00,OOO in the ex.
hibit, which Is not heavy estimate.
There was another heavy fire loss in
New York city, that OF the terminal
warehouses, involving a destruction
Of q,100,000. There were thirty'hve
fires during the month in which there
was a loss Of 100000 or over, The
abnormally cold weather made the liza
bility to fires greater than usual, on
account Of the over-taxing Of heating
arrangements and the difficulty OF u.s.
Ing distinguishing apparatus to ad'
vantage. Underwriters say that the
number Of fires OF suspicious origin
Is increasing, u concomitant of poor
business conditions. The work OF
detectives In exposing the ring Of pro
fessional fre-bugs In Chicago and 9th
or western cities last summer did
much good. What Is needed is more
vigilance in hunting down criminals
of this type as well as greater pre-
cautions against accidental fires.
