GOVERNMENT MAKES
A POPULAR RULING

a recent service order for the re
clamation branch of the government
from the Secretary OF. the Interior is
of particular interest to the farmers
of the project. inasmuch as it provides
specifically for the sale to them by
the reclamation bureau of certain
commodities at actual cost. The
Secretary's letter follows:
Hereafter you are authorized to
sell cement and lumber from the
warehouses of the Reclamation Serv-
ice to water users on reclamation pro-
Jects in the vicinity, to be consumed
on their respective farms in building
and repairing structures for the ben
eicial use of water delivered through
government canals for the irrigation
of such farms, and in lining farm
bitches and any other works having
to do with the distribution of such
water Such sales should be made at
cost, including freight and overhead
charges; the cost should be carefully
estimated so as to preclude the posi-
bility of any loss to the Reclamation
fund. lnasmuch as the said use of
the materials to be thus sold is in eff
feet an enlargement and perfection OF
the projects constructed by the Gov
erument, | consider that sales under
the restrictions herein set forth do
not enter the field of private enter
prise and therefore cannot properly
be objected to as Government compe-
tition with private capital Churchill
Standard.

BIG TRACT RECLAIMED.
Owners of 10000 Acres in Amargosa
Valley Will Have Big Farm.

Tracts of land aggregating some
10000 acres have been lately acquired
by an association of wealthy Chicago
meat packers and lumber men, the
land being situated i'll the valley above
Rhyolite and on both sides of the
Amargosa river 1t is the object to
sink wells at number of points and
irrigate this land, either by storing
the water or by pumping it.
An engineer who has had much eX-
perience with arid lands will arrive
shortly from Chicago to outline plans
for the reclamation of the land and
in the meantime George NJ. Hunter,
manager OF the Randolph mine i'll the
Gold Mountain district, is in charge
of the property, and acting as the
resident agent OF the owners The
land has been taken up under the
Carey act and will be converted into
a large and fertile farming tract

LARGELY INCREASED
ELECTORAL COLLEGE

Under the new apportionment OF
the admission of New Mexico and
Arizona the Electoral College will be
reconstructed and new basis estab
lished for representation at the ma
tional conventions.
Each State has as many electoral
votes as it has senators and represen-
tatives In 1909 there were 4S3 mem
bers OF the Electoral College. Next
year there will be 532 So 2o7 votes
will be necessary to elect.
Confusion has arisen in some of the
tables of electoral votes heretofore
published, which wrongly give the to-
tai as SOL The mistake has arisen on
the assumption that New Mexico had
one representative in Congress,
whereas it has two.
The Republicans and Democrats
have habes of representation in their
conventions that differ slightly. Both
parties admit twice as many dele
gates from each State as it has SEN
ators and representatives SO the
States will be represented both at Chi
cago and Baltimore with 1904 dele
gates The difference arises in the ter
ritorial representation.
The Republicans admit six dele
gates from Hawaii, and two each from
Alaska, District of Columbia, Porto
Rico and the Philippines, thus max
ing a total OF 1913 delegates
The Democrats admit six delegates
from each OF these five divisions, max
ing a total of 1904
In the Republican convention ma
jority. or $40 votes, will nominate In
the Democratic convention a two
thirds vote is necessary, or 73O-kan-
sas City Star.

PROPOSED GOVERNMENT Law TO
REGULATE EXPRESS COMPANIES
The Lower House Congress akes Steps Curb the Hog
Grabbing Custom Of the Various Carriers

miles apart FIVE cents: not more than
six hundred miles apart four cents,
and between points not more than two
hundred and fifty miles apart, two
cents per pound. 1t is provided, how
ever. that no express company shall
be compelled to accept for transpor-
tation any package at a charge less
than ten cents.
The provision for cooperation be-
tween the express companies and the
rural free delivery routes is the most
discussed feature Express matter
destined for farmer living on a ru-
raj mail route would be delivered by
the express agent at the nearest point
to its destination where, provided the
shipper had attached the necessary
postage, it would be turned over to
the mail carrier, through the regular
channels for delivery. Rural carriers
likewise would be authorized to ac-
cept matter on which postage had
been paid for delivery to the express
company.
Failure of any express company to
carry out the provisions of the law
would be punished by fine in each
case of 500 and attorney fees, to-
gether with such damages as the per
son aggrieved might collect in court.
