 AT SAN DIEGO
Coast City Hears the News That Bond Issue for Con- struction of Spreckels Road to the Colorado Has Been Allowed

Great news reached Phoenix yes terday in telegram f:2:: Joe Pro- chaska of San Diego to George E.
 Buxton of that city, who has been ir town on business for several days.
 The telegram states that the state railroad commission of California
 had just granted the application of
 the SpIeckels railroad to issue bonds
 to the amount of $15,000,0O0 for the construction of the railroad from it's
 present terminus to the Colorado river. The application for permission
 was made by John D. Spreckels
 about sixty days ago. MT. Spreckels stated at that time that he had al-
 ready arranged for the sale of the
 bends and would be prepared at
 once to push the construction of the
 road eastward to the river.
 MT. Buxton said he believed that
 yesterday was the biggest day San
 I.iego had had for long time and
 he feared that the earth in that
 vicinity was resounding with the thumps of those who were falling from the water wagon.
 The dispatches mentioned some time ago that the Southern Pacific had been granted permission for the issuance of s6,5OO 900 bonds and that is interpreted in San Diego to mean ] that a junction with the Spreckels line will be effected at Yuma
 The Spreckels line is already built sixty miles out of San Diego, forty five miles of the line running through Mexico, that route chosen on account of the grade, which is only one and onehalf per cent. That | road when completed, NIr. Buxton said, would bring Phoenix 100 miles nearer tidewater and would shorten i the time to the coast by four hours. He believed that all the construc- 1 tion would be completed for the | handling of traffic to the exposition next year. He believed also that it would bring about a revolution Of 1 freight rates between Arizona and | the coast, on account of the
 shorter haul and the more favorable grade. This, said MT Buxton, is
 only one of many things that will i make San Diego a city of 800. .000 | within the next five years

BURBANK AGENCY
 ID BE IN PHOENIX
Some Facts Concerning the Great
 Plant Wizard.

Ralph J. Sheafe, repi iesentative of the Luther Burbank company of San Francisco. arrived in the city yes terday and placed the agency for the sale of the Burbank flower and gar cen seeds with the Owl Drug com pany and the Central Pharmacy, with which it is associated. Mir Sheafe is making tour of the country, but generally he is not establishing agen- cies in towns of less than 25,O00. There will be, however. three agen- cies in Arizona-at Phoenix, Tucson and Douglas.
 MT. Sheafe is a personal friend Of the plant wizard. whom he regards as the greatest man of the age. Mr. Burbank, he says, is not a botanist. and has not a technical education. hut learns what he knows directly from nature. He is not a business nan and when he has developed a new plant and is satisfied with it he turns it over to the Burbank company and is done with it. That he is not in the business of creating new plants for money is shown in the fact that all he got out of the great potato that has borne his name for more than a generation was $50.
 He has lately produced the seeds of two new plants. one a kind of flax whose seed yields a neutral oil to be used in painting. and the other a kind of grain called ouino. These seeds are so valuable that they are kept in q safety deposit vault in San Francisco If they should be lost Mr. Burbank would probably not have time enough in this life to de- velOp others. It will be a long time before the company will produce enough seeds from them to handle in commercial quantities.

Seattle, Wash, July 31.-''There will
be no general European war;" says
Emma Goldman, noted anarchist, speak
ing in Seattle this week. "Stories to
that effect are largely exaggerated. J."
Miss Goldman declares countries like
Russia don't dare to plunge into war
and face internal revolution as well.
"The newspapers give war too much
prominence, anyhow" she says. "For
the barbaric relic that it is, war gets
undue notice.
"The men who are to be sent to
death if an all-European war would
be killed anyhow. Those who will die
in the war are the same who are killed
in the mines, in the factories, in the
mills.
"The war makes no difference to
them.
"What is important, is the effect the
war will have on the industrial revolu.
tion that is gaining ground all the time.
Consciously or uneonseiously, wars
have been serving the purpose in the
past of distracting the attention of the
worker from this revolution. He had
