 In Their investigations

In order to investigate anything and erything that they have c mind to. and not be molested while doing SO. the members of the Corporation Commission yesterday issued an or. der which will compel the railroad. to carry any of the commissioners and any of the commissions attaches or employees, on any of their trains, cars or engines.
 This order was prompted by the fact that most railroads prevent pas seneers or anyone else riding on any train excepting the passenger trains regularly in the service Of the road In order to get some Of their io'orms- tion it might be necessary for the Commissioners or come of the iuves. tieasors for the commission to get on CD ensise or freight train. If the old rules os the railroads were allow. d to sssnd, the investigator would bs unable to board the train, Under the new ruling they can ride on any train, Car or engine snd the ooly pro- vision in regard to them is tbst they nust pay their fare.

Outcome of RevoIu-
 tion Still In Doubt

"It is hard to tell what will be the outcome of the Mexican revolution. There seems to be about dosen political parties down tn gre and it is difficult to say which is on top," said J B romlinson, mining engir eer, Of Fl Paso, formerly of Prescott. who is in the city for 6 couple of dave.
 spesking today of conditions in the ueighborips republic. Tomlinson said |:
 Many of the railroads are ,t run ming while the troubl is on. The Mexican Nor western has abandoned ell traffic and is not even trying t" repair culverts and bridges burned and destroyed by the ,nsar,ecsc. Many mines are clo.ei down. Some have not turned 6 single wheel since last February.
 "i don't see how some of the peo- pie livs in western Chihushua who depend upon the mines for a living. Chey haven't worked for months.
 "There is not co much dsnger for Americans % reported. There is more danger in the slums of Chicago than in Mex ico. It all depends upon how . person conducts himself. The worst feature of all is the inability to get supplies."

 Society Favors Plan

 The society pledges its support ss an educational force in bringing to the attention of the people of Arizona the importance of health matters in general and of this particular phase which is now being made prominent
 The M..icops County Medical so- ciety endorses the proposal to secure legislation aimed to prohibit msr- risge among the following classes oi defective persons:

Sun Kissed"
 Oranges Taken

NJ A nsr. United States pure food inspector, who headquarters are in Phoenix, has returned from Chicago where he hss been appearing in the case of the department of agriculture against certain shippers Of oranges from California. Judge Lsndis, in the United States court. ordered that eight of the cars be confsca.ed. The eight care were taken by government agents and the "Sun Kiesed" ~rappers and tags taken of and sold ss they really were, artifcislly colored orsngee.
 This system has been going on in California for several years. The California growers, in order to take advantage Of the early marke, and i;- high prices, would place their oranges in . closed room, build e fire in the room and heat water over the fire This would bring out sn artificial , yellow color on the fruit and the ships pers could then compete with the earlier Arizona crop.
 This being an interstate shipment the govern ment agents of the depsrt- ment O. agriculture investigated and after finding the facts confiscate1 the oranges. The scts Of the California clippers were contrary to the pure food food law and they suffered the loss of their oranges as sconsequeuce.
