Southern Pacific
 Rushing Work

That the Southern Pacific is deter. mined to make the Box Canyon cut- of speedily. without waiting for . pos. ible privilege of 8 low line, which will put Phoenix on the msip line. is evidenced by the activity of the Ari, zons Eastern engineers in the Pinal mountains. It is not believed that any great difficulties will be encoun.. tered in placing the line from Kelvin se Globe and the advantages .h.. .h.. city would gain are greater chan the most optimi-tic would st first sur mise.
 A party of railroad engineers has been at work for the last month try ing to determine upon the beat route through the mountains for . Hoe from Kelvin to the Globe district.
 Prom the feet that the engineers have been st work between Globe and Kelvin it js believed thss the slterna- i've considered by the railroad for use in the event that the Box Canyon is not opened to it is the construction of . connecting line between the Arizona Eastern branch at Kelvin and the Globe branch near Cutter.
 Iftbis plan is carried through to completion. the city of Globe would be only sbous seven miles of the main line of the Southern Pacific.
 Hope has not been entirely sbsu doned by the railroad that the gov. ernment will discard the Box canyon dam project aod allow right of way for the main line over that route.

Washington, Oct. 15.-Copies of a

from time to time issue executive de

in part:
In view of the fact that the cham
ber Of deputies and senate Of the con
gress Of the Union have been dissolv- /
ed and inhabili,ated to perform their /
functions, and in view Of the powers /
which hold in the department of 60

decree that article ]. the constitutional /

.ion, which the citizens, which form
The twenty-siXth congress Of the Tn.
on, enjoyed in view Of their functions.
IS hereby repealed, and consequently
hey are subject to the jurisdiction Of

That moldy corn causes much NOR

especially where the green faint can
not be seen and only an expert can
detect the smell. Feeding such grain
with the idea that it is economy is GER
tainly the Kind that saves at the pin
hole and wastes at the bunghOle.
That many more turkeys would be
sold al Thanksgiving if they did not
have such easy access to buckwheat
and cornhelds. for thousands are kill
ed each fall when almost selling size
by stufing with buckwheat and green
corn. Watching the turkeys at this
time means more turks to sell. and the
profit is sure worth the trouble.
There would be less loss and worry
if Young stock was better protected
from cold fall rains. These bring on
colds. catarrh roup. canker, chicken

pullets has been spoiled for winter lay
