Few Appointments Made in Capital During Recent Years, Receive Larger Approval Than Does Present one.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Few ap-
 pointments in recent years has given
 such widespread satisfaction in the capital as that of Robert Lansing to
 succeed Bryan. The president signed the commission tonight which gives Lansing the recess appointment.
 It was Lansing who, as counsellor os the State Department. advised the president in law and precedent in the policy pursued by the United States toward the belligerent governments since the outbreak of the European war. Lansing is a lifelong deTroc :at but he has devoted his time to inter- national law and diplomacy. He is popular with former Republican off cials as well as with his political col leagues. Members of the cabinet who talked with the president on the sub ject were unanimous in their recon mendatfon that he be appointed. When congress reconvenes his ncmi- nation will go to the senate. No op- position to the confirmation is anti ;ipated.

BOOZE FOR OWN USE MAY BE ALLOWED
 IN THE STATE
Supreme Court Holds That Shipment of Liquor Into a Dry State for Per- sonal Use Not Violation of Webb Kenyon Act.

News that the United States su. Kenyon law does not prohibit the i'm. portation of liquor for personal use into dry territory led local lawyers to declare that it is their belief that booze" can be brought to Ari- zona by individuals who do not intend to sell it or give it away.
 The news story of the decision as wired from Washington follows:
 By a decision involving the Webb Kenyon law today the supreme court of the United States paved the way for the reopening of the struggle in congress to prevent the interstate shipment of intoxicating liquor.
 "The court held that the shipment of liquor to person in dry territory for his individual consumption was not violation of the Webb Kenyon law.
 ''The drys have held that the law was intended to prevent the shipment of liquor into dry territory irrespective of the purpose for which it was in- tended, either for sale or personal consumption.
 Undoubtedly the effect of the de- cision today will make the prohibition ists more active in their efforts to ob- tain national prohibition and less ac- tive in pushing propaganda for state wide prohibition.
 ''The courts decision was that the Webb-Kenyon law designed to prohib- it interstate shipments of liquor into dry territory does not apply to such shipments unless the state into which the shipment is made has law mak- ing it a crime for a person to drink liquor or to have it in his possession. Few States have such laws.
 ''The Adams Express company was convicted of violating state law of Kentucky. The conviction was under a state law which made it unlawful for any carrier to import liquor into subdivision of the state which is dry.
 '"The supreme court held that this state statute must be held void as re- gards interstate shipments unless re- vitalized by the protecting power of the Webb-Kenyon law, the constitu- tionality of which the court did not pass upon.''

 Yaqui valley, Mexico twas consider ably relieved following reassuring ad- vices from Admiral Howard, now at Guaymas. He reported by wireless that he had received assurances from Gen.

which he had been endeavoring to secure from them before making final settlement and that, further, the State Examiner had never made a demand on him for the deposit of the money with the County Treasurer at any time and that his first act was to file complaint, and when he heard of this uncalled for action on the part of the State Examiner he mmediately paid into the treasury the sum in question.

JUST BEFORE THE
 LAND BILL VOTE
House Took Its Medicine ManfuiIy and Bowed to the Will of the Sen ate.

A sigh of relief seemed to go up from the house on Tuesday afternoon when the vote which was to place I the land bill on the statutes of the state had been taken and announced. About forty minutes were consumed in taking the vote. As the name of each member was called he was priv ! iledged to explain his reason for vo9 1 ing for or against the bill and very many availed themselves of the op- portunity.
 l Johns was very much out of har- mony with the measure and when in formed that the rejection of one clause of the report would be equiva- lent to rejecting the entire report of the conference committee and would result in the defeat of the bill, pro- ceeded to state his objections to 1t.
 Out of deference to and respect for the hard work which the house con- ference committee had performed, and rather than defeat the bill, he would cast his vote for it, he said, but
 
 respect for it whatever"
 Graham opposed the measure u1I the last ana recorded lis vote against it, and as though that was not suIn cient evidence of his CIcom1rumis. ing attitude towards it,he dictated protest to the stenographer which was entered on the minutes.
 Claypool, who had fatherly inter- est in the measure, inasmuch as the original bill introduced in the house at this session, of which this was a substitute, was introduced by him, said that the measure had been so maltreated and mutiIated that he could scarcely recognize it, and that it would be more bitter pill for him to swallow than for any other one in the house. He was ready to take his medicine by voting for it.
 Christy also made a lengthy talk, pointing out it's imperfections, but like the other opponents of it, gave a re- luctant Yes" in response to the call of his name.
 
 call, answered with a very positive No when his name was called. He was opposed to the provision for the appraisment of the school land leases and the improvements on them. As originally drawn, the bill provided for the commissioner to appoint two appraisers and the board of supervis- DTS of the county in which the land is situated to appoint the third. This was changed so that the commission i CT should appoiAt one, the board of one and these two ap- |, point the third.
 This was again amended by giving the appointment of one of the ap- praisers to the governor, leaving it i very much the same as originally, as !, he majority of the board is thereby he creation of the state, and fears Ire entertained that the 1essees might lot get square deal from them. Others voiced the same objection o the bill, but had their votes re- orded on the affirmative of the roll all, and Acuff switched his vote lso to that side. Francis and Ma loney voted no on the adoption of he report of the conference committe, ut just before the vote was announce d changed their votes to the other olumn, leaving Graham the only one n record against it.

ont tendency of the o-cal1ed War Or der stocks Speculation is bound to run to properties to be enjoying swelling profits. The European War has thrown an exceptional demand on the foodstuffs, supplies, munitions. etc. of the United States. It has put cop per to 20 cents a pound, with every mine being pushed to it's capacity. It Is bringing the active capacity of steel
 manufacture to the limit. The circle gradually widens. By and by the output will begin to tell effectively on railroad traffic. to be followed in the Autumn by the marketing of crops that are likely to reach if not exceed previous records We consider it rather significant that in their efforts to stop the rise in the industrial stocks lie bears have been searching for all weak spots they can possibly develop in the railway list. There is much idle capital that will go into the mar ket only when the oId-time railway. leaders show animation. We have ur- certainty as to President Wilson's re- ply to the last Berlin note. Yet the actions of the German Government speak louder than words. The American position is being recognized in the submarine warfare in fact. If not-in principle. The financial and States is beyond precedent It is nat =uraI for the markets to recognize this, now that the foreign selling pressure has abated. And this recent weight was felt most on our sound railway investments. A broad speculation must eventually bring these to the fore.
