QUARANTINE ON
TEXAS SHEEP

Two Arizona counties, all of
Mexico and all of Texas have
quarantined to prevent the spread
of sheep scabbies.
At it's meeting in Amarillo on
March 4, of this year, the Pan
handle and Southwestern Stock
mems Association passed a reso-
luton giving the sense of the
association to be that effectual
war should be declared on sheep
scabbies and steps taken to pre-
vent its spread. and now comes
the United States department of
Agriculture and quarantines all
of Texas, all of New Mexico and
Navajo and Apache counties in
Arizona in an effort to prevent
the spread of sheep scabbies.,
At least this was a report COM
ing to public and is assumed to
be correct, Sheep scabbies came
into Texas from Colorado, enter
ing the Panhandle and spread
east and south.
The Panhandle stockmen real
lied that Texas had no law
which gave real power to the Tex
as Livestock sanitary commission
hence the resolution.
AS the Texas law providing
for eradication of sheep scab in
the state, prohibiting entry of in
fected sheep and providing for a
state and county inspection be-
comes obsolete on July /, Of this
year.
Just why the Federal depart
ment of agriculture suddenly de-
clared a quarantine on Texas is
not known at this time.

SANTA FE TO CUT
OUT ALL PASSES.

Are employees of the Santa Fe
to be deprived of free transpor-
tation over the company's lines?
That is the question which
seems to be disturbing the east
ern end Of the system a great
deal of late and has reached AL
buquerque, where employees are
talking of the rumored change
IN the pass system which has
been in effect for years. 1t is
neither denied nor confirmed by
officials, yet it is enough to cause
somewhat of a futter among the
men on the pay rolls of the COM
pany here. The Topeka State
journal has the following to saw
OF the matter:
Railway employees in Topeka
are greatly disturbed about a
persistent rumor that the issu-
ance or passes is to be discon-
tinued. The story comes to
Topeka from Colorado, where
railroad men say some action
with that end in view already-hss
been taken. Railway circles
here have no information further
than the report mentioned.
The officials higher up have
given the subject some consider
alton, but no order has been
made. 1t is said that the ir-
creasing demands on the part of
employees has made policy of
retrenchment necessary, and the
elimination of free transportation
constitutes large item.
THE strenuous effort of the
average railroad management of
today is directed toward ir-
creased sficiency Of service for
the public, which means in
creased cost Of operation and
maintenance. 1t is claimed that
increased legislative require
ments, increased expenditures
and higher wages for employees,
with threatened reductions in
rates, are forcing the railroads
to retrench wherever possible.

Asks for Genuine
Civil Service

Washington, D. C. Senator
Norris of Nebraska, has taken
up his civil service measure for
the postoffice department, which
he originally introduced in the
house. While the politicians are
wasting their efforts trying to
find out whether the &c, 900 fourth
class postmasters of the country
should remain in the civil SER
vice, according to the order of
Ex-President Taft; and in trying
to find holes here and there in
the service, to be filled in with
civil service appointees, Senator
Morris proposes to apply the
merit system to the entire ser
vice, beginning with the post
master general and running down
through the entire department to
include the most obscure rousta-
bout in the service. Senator
Norris is very much in earnest
in his effort to make the post
office a business institution in
stead of a political grab-bag, and
he believes that the merit system
as it is applied on the railroads
and great commercial institutions
would inspire a desire among
postal employees to make the
postoffice their life work, as they
would realize that by application
and efficiency the highest places
in the service, even up to the
place of postmaster general,
would be in their reach. The
Norris measure attracted wide
spread attention when it ap-
peared in the house, and with
the new conditions that are COM
ing up in congress it is evident
that with an aggressive senator
like the Nebraskan back of the
measure, that the sentiment of
the country is to be tested.

Some Fool Scheme

If,everyone who is tempted to

first, most of these schemes
would be defeated. Their big
advertisements telling of i'm

slow to most people and this is
where the man with his get-rich-

better to have your few hund-

than not to have it at all. It may

Arizona's cattle output for the

This is the estimate of freight

The gain this season over last

FAIR SEX AND
FREIGHT RATES

Themost importantif not most
interesting news to many Arizo-
ma women, published during the
pastweek, is probably that freight
rates in Arizona are about to be
considerably reduced.
The problem of making both
ends meet comes home with
more force to the women than to
any other member of the family.
When freight rates are so
heavy they increase the cost of
living and reduce the possible
consumption of home comforts.
Consequently a reduction of these
rates must be welcomed, es-
pecially by those in charge of our
domestic economy. 1t is to be
hoped that our women will all
enroll as voters so that they can
make their influence felt in our
government. When we find the
welfare of the home being helped
through a wise government, and
when wise measures make it
possible to increase home COM
forts, and perhaps add just a
little more increment necessary
to permit a summer vacation for
mother or continue the education
of the sons or daughters, then
the mothers will undoubtedly be
willing to take advantage Of
those new powers conferred upon
them. The women are direct
representatives of the home in
our government and as such
should urge, as speedily as posi-
BILE, those things which will pro-
tect and elevate the home.
The railroads, like all corpora
tions, are entitled to receive first
returns upon their investments.
Confscatory measures should
be frowned upon, but where un-
fairness exists in freight rates
such unfairness, which causes US
to be charged more for the trans
portation than the article costs,
land this too in spite of the fact
that rates on the same articles
are sent many miles further for
less money! it is then time for
women to make themselves felt
as a forcible factor in protecting
home interests through the
powers Of the ballot. Silver Belt.

A Bowel Sti111ulu11t
The Ideal One Is q Mild Laxative
Tonic That VIII Keep the B0sreS
Gently Active.

Healthy old age is SO absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the bow
els that great care should be taken to
see that they act regularly. The fact
Is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive and
the liver does not store up the juices
that are necessary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eating
easily digested foods and by plenty OF
exercise, but this latter is irksome to
most elderly people. One thing is GER
tain, that state Of constipation shoald
always be avoided, as it is dangerous
to life and health. The best plan Is
to take a mild laxative as often as IL
deemed necessary. But with equal Ger.
tainty it is suggested that cathartics,
purgatives, physics, salts and pills be
avoided, as they do but temporary good
and are so harsh as to be a shock to
delicate system.
A much better plan and one that
thousands Of elderly people are follow
ing, is to take a gentle laxative-tonic
like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. which
acts as nearly like nature as is possible
In fact, the tendency Of this remedy
is to strengthen the stomach and bowel
muscles and so train them to act natu-
rally again, when medicines Of all
kinds can usually be dispensed with.
