liquor prohibited on Government reserva-
tons, and not even a thirsty traveller can
carry his bottle into the Government parks.
general advance along Temperance lines
has been the result of the work of the indie
fatigable Prohibition Bug. More than that,
the way is being paved to secure legislation
that will prevent the shipment of liquor over
interstate commerce lines into States and
communities that have adopted prohibition
laws But even then the Prohibition Bug
will not be satisfied. He is urging prohi-
bition in the District of Columbia, which is
controlled by the Government. He is seek
ing to prevent the issue of liquor-selling per-
mits by the Government in districts where
prohibition prevails, and further to change
the internal revenue laws SO that money will
not be raised by licensing the manufacture
and sale of liquor, and thus outlaw the bust
ness. Step by step the Prohibition Bug is
making its way toward the restriction of the
liquor traffic by national laws, the ultimate
object being its extinction.

scended upon the National Capital with

persistence about the halls of Congress. Ad-
vocates of constitutional amendment to
allow equal suffrage are plentiful enough,
however, to make distinct impression and
to show that the cause is not dying. The
suffragettes have no difficulty in securing
the introduction Of their bills and resolu-
tons, without the words @by request at
tached; for every Senator and Representa-
tive from States where women vote, as well
as many other members of Congress, is an
advocate of equal suffrage. But the real Suf-
fragette Bug that haunts Washington is not
satisfied with the introduction of measures.
Action is what is demanded, and the Speaker,
the chairmen of committees, and many
others are reminded frequently that @votes
for women is not an idle phrase, and that
the Suffragette Bug will not rest content
with the progress made in the several States
toward equal rights for women, but only
national legislation will suffice.

Machine Shop Building En-

Shop Capacity.

On account of increased volume of
repairs and construction work to be
handled in the near future, due to the
Tucson extension, and generally good
business, it has been necessary to en-
large the shops somewhat. and an adj
dltiOn has recently been built to the
machine shop building, large enough to
house the entire tCO1 room and air
brake departments This greatly IN
creases the capacity of the shops as a
tional room.
The force of E. P. & S. W. boiler

The first one was built at Mt Riley,

The store department has been quite
busy this week taking inventory. It is
expected that the work will take about
two weeks to complete, as it is the
yearly inventory of all stock on hand,
and involves a great deal of accounting.
Fireman Berkey, of the FL Paso-Carri-
zozo division, has been laying off for
some time, on account Of illness.
Engineer E L. AylswOrth has taken

Governor Colquitt is also being

has freed more convicts during the

similar period. He is being commended,
however, by many women Of the state
for his leniency in this regard.

a century ago, lands that now com

practically nothing, and the region that

to be worthless, except as cattle

was known as the free range, and many
thousands of heads Of cattle roamed
over the prairies obtaining "A SuS-
tenance from the luXuriant grasses
With the passing Of the free range,
there came a system of leasing Dy tne
cowmen, and the enclosing of large
sections Of land for ranch purposes.
Later the state, through its general
offices, placed much of this land on
the market to actual settlers, reQulr-
