Washington. March 2G.-Serious de-
pletion of railway revenues through
the allowance to lumber tap lines"
of Il part OF through rates was alleged
in an argument fled to-day with the
supreme Court by Chief Counsel
Joseph w Folk and Charles w. Need
nam. OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Consideration OF the tap line" cases
to be argued before the Supreme Court
ABOUT April ., has been watched with
Keen interest because of their bearing
upon the application by Eastern rail-
roads FOR per cent Increase in rates
witnesses have told the commission
that the railroads might meet the sit
nation now confronting them by
reducing unnecessary expenditures
rather Than increasing their income.
The owners of these tap lines arc
not in the railroad business, declared
the brief filed to-day. They are lum-
oermer with logging roads as part
or their plant facilities. II by doing a
tttIe outside common carriage bust
ness they can secure 100000 In re-
nates upon their lumber rates, and the
commission Is without power to pro-
htbit This thing, then rebating is legal

merchants induce them to dabble a

The Days of AIkaIl Ike and

10 The Era of Modern Adj
vanCement.

The one-time popular conception OF
New Mexico as an outpost OF civiliza-
tion--a land given up TO the cactus
and the tarantula--a land whose
principal and most attractive charac-
fers bear such euphonious sobriquets
as Alkali Ike and Death Valley JIM
has about passed away Fostered by
the funny men of the eastern dailies
and periodicals. this conception held
on for q long time after II had be-
come a libel on a progressive people
and an enterprising section. Fortu-
nately. the railroad and the telegraph
have brought the various sections oil

that people can now see for them
selves what the west is---what New
Mexico is
Those who have eyes to see now
realize that nowhere between the two

| An evidence of the standing of the
university is found In the fact that
Its graduates are given full credit for
the examinations that they have pass

Its diplomas are recognized in all CEN
tiers of learning. Its students who go
to Harvard or Columbia or any of the
other we'll known national institutions
of learning are accredited with what

branches. When 1t Is considered that
