The new instruments for Alden's Band have all arrived, and were all in service Sunday afternoon The monster "SOusaphone" and the giant E-flat bass add materially to the general result of the music as we'll as lending a decided "city style" to the makeup of the band The organ quality of the tone produced by these instruments is remarkable Alden's Concert Band, incidently, is the only band in the state boasting of the 'Sousaphones" of this character, which is something in itself.

FASCINATING STORY
 0F ETERNAL TRIANGLE
Good EcIair Bill at the Sign of the
 Green Mill Worth Seeing.

The bill at the gardens today and tomorrow is exceptionally good and carries one of the best Universal fea- ture films of limited length that has been seen in Phoenix in some time. It is called "The Serpent in Eden"
 and as it's title implies tells a story of one person who endeavored to break up a happy home. The eternal l triangle is brought out with great strength in the picture which is a story of two women and a man. The
 man is an artist who has been be- friended by a young woman and her father, and who falls in love with and marries the young woman.
 A few years after this the young man having achieved fame and for tune, is engaged to paint a picture of a celebrated artist during which time, the artist, who by the way, is a woman-allows them to entertain lavishly in her apartments. With their advent into society however, the young painter is pained to see his wife manifest a timidity and bashful ness preferring her menial duties to | the pleasures of society. The young | man however, loves the tinsel and
 tawdry of the world and gradually is won away from his wife by the su l perb charms of the other woman. l The young wife finds them one day 1 locked in each others arms in the 1 studio and heartbroken returns to her l father while the man follows the beautiful enchantress, and she gives him to choose between her and his wife. He takes the artist and to- gether they go to Venice-the city of love and forbidden delights, but here iafter a while the film drops from his ieyes when he finds the woman he lhas forsaken all for is about to for get her oft spoken love for him in the lpleasures afforded her in the society
 of another. Heartbroken he returns
 ito his work
 The wife staying with her father
 refuses to go back to the painter, and
 he takes to drink going from bad to worse Finally the old man adds his pleadings and the girl goes back, the painter recOvers his lost prestige, and it is time for the curtain.

Commission began to enforce the law it called upon the pipe line compan- ies in the United States. six refused 10 comply. Those were the Ohio Oil company the Standard Oil company.
 the Standard Oil company of Louis
 jana, the Prairie Oil and Gas com
 pany, the Uncle Sam Oil company and
 the TideWater Pipe company, Limited,
 carrying oil from the Appalachian
 field, covering New York. Pennsyl
 Vania, West Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee; The Illinois Indiana Ohio field; the Mid continent field. cover ing Kansas and Oklahoma; and the Gulf field, covering Louisiana and Texas.
 The six hostile companies applied
 to the Commerce Court and it en- joined the enforcement of the order. on the ground that there was not the real and substantial relation between the avowed objects of the legislation and the means devised for attaining those objects to make the law con- stitutional.
 Before the supreme court, the gov ernment took square issue with the commerce court about the relation of
 the objects and the means used. The government insisted that the object | of the legislation was to make it i'm possible to organize another oil mon- i opoly. such as had been struck down | by the court in the Standard Oil de- | cision in 1911 It contended that
 monopoly of pipe lines was the root | of total monopoly of the oil busi-
 ness that must be eradicated if a full grown monopoly was to be avoid ed. It contended congress had a right
 to prohibit corporations carrying oil | in interstate commerce by pipe lines
 unless they became common carriers 1 The government was not satisfied
 with the suggestion during argument that the law should be construed so
 as to apply only to those companies which hold themselves out as doing l business for the public, or as common carriers.
 | It asserted that all that would be necessary in order to make the law a
 nullty then would be for the owner l of the lines to change their names | during the last few miles of the pipe, | creating a station or terminus of the common carrier out in the woods, where no small independents would find a market for oil and the terminal company remaining a private carrier.
 It was pointed out that at present the terminus of the Ohio Oil company line was at little village of 100 pop ulation in Pennsylvania; and the Prai- rie Oil ad Gas company to a similar ly remote village in Louisiana, named Ida, was in touching tribute to the
 biographer of Standard Oil, Miss Ida
 Tarbell.

STANDARD OIL LOSES

used solely to conduct oil from its own wells to its refinery.
 Tt would be a perversion of lan- guage, considering the sense in which it is used in the statute," he added, ito say that a man was engaged in the transportation of water whenever he pumped a pail of water from his well into his house."
 Justice McKenna insisted in the ex- emption of the Uncle Sam company left the way open for the Standard to avoid the operation of the law. He asked if the Standards lines would not be exempted, just as the Uncle Sans if the Standard ceased to pur- chase oil
 What, then" he inquired, would become of the independent producer"
 The pipe line companies, Justice Me Kenna held, "have done nothing outside of the exercise of the rights which all property owners possessed, namely to us their own property exclusively for themselves"
 The Pipe Line amendment to the Hepburn rate law of 1906 was the re- suit Ol iHN eSllSdtiOl Dy lhc bui eau oi Corporations into the affairs of the Standard Oil company. When the Bu- reau through President Roosevelt in | formed congress that the Standards control of pipe lines in the United States was one of it's chief sources of power as a monopoly, Senator ] Lodge moved to amend the rate law, | then before congress, so as to place pipe lines under the regulation of the Interstate Commerce Commission. 1 Senator Foraker of Ohio, began a fight against the Lodge amendment, contending that it would be unconsti- tutional unless it placed under the
 commission only those lines which held themselves out as common car- riers.
 l The amendment as finally passed, read:
 | That the provisions of this act shall apply to any corporation or any | person or persons engaged in the | transportation of oil or other crude
 commodity, except water and except
 natural or artificial gas, by means of pipe line, or partly by pipe lines and partly by railroad or partly by pipe lines and partly by Water-who shall
 be considered and held to be common
 carriers within the meaning and pur-
 pose of this act"

erals not then known to exist
 The government issued a patent in 1894 to the Southern Pacific in aid of it's construction of a transcon- tinental line. Patents were issued likewise to the Northern Pacific and other lines traversing the plains and the Rockies to the coast Each pat ent contained an exception and res ervation reading as follows:
 Excluding and excepting all min eral lands should any such be found in the tracts aforesaid, but this ex clusion and exception, according to the terms of the statute, shall not be construed to include coal and iron lands."
 For years a fierce controversy has been waged as to the effect of the discovery of oil.
 The railroads contended that oil was not a mineral and therefore oil lands were not excepted from the grant. Furthermore. the railroads contended that the exception was
Arizona republican., 1914-06-23

void under the law governing realty.
 The government took the position that it could show at any time, even after tho issuance of the patent that the lands were oil in nature and thus prevent their remaining in the hands of the railroads.
 Previous to the government suit, three-cornered nature of the con- troversy was emphasized by Burke and others laying claim to a portion of the oil lands. under the placer mining laws. They contended that the Southern Pacific had no title to the lands on much the same grounds as the government, and asserted af- firmative title for themselves.
 The Northern Pacific obtained leave, because of it's indirect interest in the litigation, to present an argu- ment in the case. It contended that other land-grant railroads would be affected vitally by a decision up- holding Burke's claims.
 The value of the property at stake
Arizona republican., 1914-06-23

has been emphasized by showing that it is more than the valuation placed upon both real and personal property for taxation in either Loui- siana, Rhode Island, Virginia. North Carolina, or Nebraska, and nearly as great as that in Georgia, Kentucky or Oregon. The value is said to be seven times as great as all the gold coin in the United States and about three times the combined public debts of the various states.
