AS TO SECRETARY BRYAN

IT with Mexico is declared will William J. Bryan resign his portfolio as Secretary of State in or der to his consistency advocate Of peace7
 Is Secretary Bryan in sympathy with the present Administration toward Mexco2
 The above questions have been asked repeatedly. In the last issue of his periodical, The Commoner Secretary Bryan answers them thus:
 "The wrt3r gives his cordial endorsement to the Presidents policy and earnestly hopes that a fur ther resort to arms may not be necessary. No one in sympathy with the spirit of the present age can regard without feeling of horror The passions which should te allowed slumber and the preudices which it would engender throughout Latin America would prevent that cordiay which should character. ize the relations Of neighbors Al times like these the way is not always clear to those upon whom great responsibilities rest, but the time has come when doubts should te resolved in peaceful methods will be blessing to the whole world; if-God forbid it.-medation fails the offer and acceptance will not be barren of good results for the attempt has already awakened the generous interest of all Central and South American and proven our nations desire to ex- haust every other method before resong to the arbi trament of arms"
 After reviewing briefly the several incidents lead. ing to the refusal of Gen Huerta salute the Stars and Stripes Secretary Bryan continues:
 Whatever reasons may have sctuated General Huerta President Wilson felt it his. duty to lay the matter before Congress not for the purpose of se- curing declaration of war but with the object of inviting vote of confidence that General Huerta might not be longer deluded with the idea that the Government at Washington lacked popular support a delusion for which he indebted to those news which have with deliberate intent misrepre- sented the attitude of -he public mind subject After resolution endorsing the Presidents course had passed the House by a of nearly ten to one and while t under discussion in the Senate the President to new contingencies that had arisen. took possession of the custom house. at Vera Criz and then in order to defend it, forced to extend the lines beyond the city limits A period of turmoil and excitement in the capital and throughout the country followed during which nearly all of the Americans residing in Mexico sought safety in re- turn to the United States Fortunately no deaths have been reported in Che American colony and now that the excitement has subsidized t is not likely that any fatalities win occur

The Santa Maria graphite mines are the largest and most important in the Western World The region around Che Gulf of Mexico is very rich in petroleum One company at Poteri del Llano struck a gusher which flowed 100000 barrels of oil day.

ARIzONA'S DREAM OF
 LOWER FREIGHT RATES
Railroads Have Not Yet Reached Understanding on Flour
 and Sugar.

PHOENIX, May 1S.-Arizona's dream fenjoying lower freight rates on flour from middle western points is not to be realized-yet
 Almost from the day that Arizona became state the corporation com mission has been fighting to have the flour rates reduced An interstate commerce commission exabiner was sent here and a hearing was held at the capital last spring. In January tn1 l. C. 'C. issued an order directing the railroads to make a drastic revision, effective May l. It was stated that if the reductions were not made the com mission would itself issue a general reducing order
 The reductions were not made and the corporation commission has been keeping the wires to Washington hot ever since. The l. C. c. has written that the data necessary to the issu- ance of a flour rate Orer is being col lected The railroads have asked for a rehearing but the l. C. C. has neither denied nor granted that request
 There was a time 1t was thought that April 15 would see a general re- duction in rates on carload shipments of sugar from California to Arizona points. B. Maier & Co. of Benson, protested against paying ninety cents a hundred on sugar when the jobbers in El Paso, hundreds of miles farther east paid only sixty cents on sugar they imported from the coast An order requiring noth the Southern Pa ciGC snd Santa FC Q make certl'n reductions by April i5 was issued by tho l. C. C The santa Fe has made ra led ttions at ell aud the Southera Pacific has done nothing more than blanket the siXtycent rate all 'he w1y u0m Yuma to El Paso. That does rot help Phoenix or the Salt River valley So the corporation commis- sion has complained to the l. c. C. and it is now expected that a hearing will be held the latter part of June.
