 Louis St James was one of the latest to leave the home and de- nounce it's management, saying to the Prescott Journal-Miner:
 Since Major Doran left the home We have had no home. If change in the management takes place be- fore my furlough expires I will re- turn. Otherwise win starye to death before again will enter tha. hell house. Rather than go back the county poor farm will be a haven to what I and other pioneers have en- dured for several months at the state institution The Pioneers Home is simply misRcmer-it's nothing more nor less than a humbug. a place where despotism reigns and where conditions are such that white man Will not and cannot endure"
 The complaint made by Mir. Murphy when he left the home and returned to Globe was backed up by a letter which he bore from the assistant county attorney of YavaPai county
 Where there is so much continual smoke there must be some fire and an investigation of the pioneer home would seem to be in order

FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS.

The administration Dill provtuine For Federal Reserve Banks through which a system of currency reform Is sought to be insugurated is not meeting with the approval of the bankers of the country who have giS. en out their opinion. The proposed law provides that these federal re serve banks shall be under the con trol of Fedora! Reserve Bank board to be composed of three cabi- net officers and four others to be ap pointed by the president and son firmed by the senate, one of those named by the president to be man experienced as a banker. One ob- lection being urged vigorously by those who are supposed to represent the views of bankers is tha; the pro nosed new banks would or might be controlled by a political board having little knowledge of the banking basi- ress It is provided that the federal reserve banks shall be owned by the national banks and state banks with in the reserve districts who may meet the qualification for membership or ownership. The deposits in the federal reserve bsnks shall be limit cd to those of the government ana to tbesa of the banks holding the stock of the reserve institution. News yes ,eraay from Washington said that the uroposed measure was being amended in several features, but that suostan- tisIly it would be offered in congress AS tt has been approved and urged bv President Wilson. With the es rapushment Of these new reserve hanks all government money would he deposited in them thereafter, From the manner in which the neN currency bul has been received 1t IS mite likely that it will attract az ranch attention during its travels through congress as the tariff bill.
 The demand for new banking sys- fem has rested mainly upon the need of facilities for the re-discount oi commercial paper and for volume of currency more readily responsive tc inc varying needs of business. Botf ,s rSese are provided in the proposed measure. The Federal Reserve Banks wl,1 re-dlscount for each other and for member banks. and at this pOini large element of governmental reg nation comes in by vesting the Fed er,l Reserve Board with the duty oI 5etermiping rates of discount.
 The Federal Reserve Banks are as soeia,;ons of all national banks ana such state banks and trust eompanie' in geographical area as eject t came in and comply with the condi lions. They furnish the capital; the' provide the deposits. The Fedora Reserve Bank is a cooperative banl for banks.

LULU IN RAILROAD BUILDING.

A natural consequence of the pres ent stringency in the money market, which makes it difficult for railroad companies 10 place new issues Of stocl; or bonds at satisfactory rates. is ex. pected to be a marked reduction in the amount of railroad building for the next year or two. Cautiously enough, it is reported that Wall street. which is popularly supposed to fatten or the construction and fnan- cing of new lines, views the pros. pect with composure and Is said to believe that a cessation in this form Of activity for time will be good thing for the country.
 The fact is, as a glance at the map will show, we already have enough railroads for the present Reeds or nearly every section of the United States. What we want is better rail roads not more of them Instead of building more single-track lines. the profitableness of which will be a mat. ter of doubt. the real requirements of the country are that many exist ing single track roads shall be double
 tracked and that double-trsck rail
 roads carrying a heavy traffic shai'
 have third or fourth tracks added
 For such improvements. the abolition
 of grade crossings the enlargement
 of freight terminals. the introduction
 of safety signals and appliances etc.
 there is need of vast sums of money
 and it is much better that the cash o'
 investors should go into such wort
 than into the increase of lines, say
 the Philadelphia Record.
 I H is curious illustration of tn backward condition of many Ameri can railroads that the Erie. one 0 the oldest of our companies, datini back probably 75 years stin has large amount of single track on it main line between New York and Chi ? eaeo. The trsns-Missouri reads ar generally single-track affairs and s
 are many of the principal soatheF
 lines. It will be good thing fo ' both the railroads and the countr ii railroad zork during the next fe' can largely take sbe form of il { creasing the facilities of existing iiae e and Iet new ones wait There ar other industries in the United State e besides railroads and no harm wi Q be done if the building pace of tn e past half century shows a materi' ~ slaeksniny kerceforth.
