P|NCHED--SELlS CAR
 ID THE TRAFFIC COP

The pressure got so strong that Tom strator which was something that he had promised himself and Maurice O'Neill that he would not do. Trent reports that he has eight deposits up for more Maxwells, and that he has a couple of car loads on the way new. Those who secured the six cars re- ceived last week were: Joseph E. Lobit, A. T. Esgate, c. D. Brown of Globe. AL fred R. Wilson of Tempe, w. A. Wes- colt, Cor a Mesa customer) and Ber- nard A. Lynn of Phoenix.
 They are telling a rather good sales story at the O'Neill garage this week. This little trick was pulled off in Los Angeles, where the court records prove it's authenticity. Charles Miller, who was then with the Lord Motor com pany of Los Angeles, and now a sales man at the O'Neill shop, was taken in for speeding a couple of weeks ago. He was trying out one of the new Max wells, and realizing that it was an ill wind that blows nobody good, turned his defeat into victory, and sold the traffic cop a car on the way to the police court. This all came out when he was being tried; and the judge was so impressed that he too, is going to buy a Maxwell soon, as Miller has just learned.

TOUR OF A MONTH
 IN NORTHERN ARIZONA

George E. Pheby, wife, daughter and P. c. Mckinney returned yes : terday from an automobile tour of the northern part of the state with the Grand Canyon as the principal objective. They left here on July 26, going by the way of Roosevelt, intending to proceed through the White Mountains, but they found the road more difficult than they ex- pected so that they went north by the way of Prescott, to the Grand Canyon, the Petrified forest and the ice caves. They also visited the Sun set Mountain where the ten year old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Pheby proved that she was some noun taineer by climbing to the crater. At the Grand Canyon she performed the feat of descending the trail into the Canyon to the half way house.
 The trip was not devoid of un- pleasant incidents. Where it was possible to have trouble with an au- tomobile the party had it and MT. Pheby said that he could not take his place with those overland tour ists who on returning boast that they had had no tire trouble.
 They encountered one hail storm which seemed to have been devised for their entertainment and it was a hail storm worth while.

ern Pacific, and at once hastened to
 San Francisco.
 At the series of conferences held in San Francisco, Chairman Jones re- peated his arguments in favor Of abolishing the arbitrary charge from Maricopa, stating emphatically that he believed the interstate commerce commission would never sustain such action on the part of the carriers and that unless some agreement could be reached that the corporation com mission would fight it vigorously The railroad officials took the mat ter under advisement, and a few days ago advised Commissioner Jones that after careful consideration of the ar guments put forward and the points involved they had decided to rescind their former action, and that the rate to Phoenix would hereafter be no higher than to Maricopa.
 The action of the railroads was conditioned on withdrawal of the commissions petition for suspension and the formal protest against the ar
 bitrary. and this will be done imme- diately.
 Commissioner Jones has been ad- vised that the carriers will ask the interstate commerce commission for permission to publish the new rates to Phoenix effective in less than the statutory limitation of thirty days, so tbat in all probability the arbitrary will be abolished within a week or ten days. Advice as to the carrier S action has already been sent to the publisher of the transcontinental tariffs.
 The action of the railroads in vol untarily abolishing the arbitrary is certainly very creditable, and shows an attitude of fairness toward Phoe- nix and the valley said Chairman Jones yesterday. They were shown that the additional charge to Phoenix was unfair and unjust, and that it would cripple the city as jobbing center and they have agreed to re- scind their action. If they had not so decided, we would of course have taken the case up to the interstate commerce commission, and I believe we would have won out, but it would have cost a great deal of money, and probably years of litigation. The de- cision of the railroads is certainly most gratifying.
 Chairman Jones, through whose eff forts the arbitrary was abolished, suc- cessfully contested the arbitrary rates to this city several years ago, when as counsel for the Maricopa County Commercial club he waged a cam paign for lower rates for this city. Prescott and other points on the $. F. P. and P. lines and Tempe, on the Arizona Eastern, will. also profit by the abolition of the arbitrary charge.

ENLARGE RUSSIAN CABINET
Moved Make Government More Iruiy
 Representative of the People
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATcH1

LONDON, (Tuesday) Aug. S1.-The enlargement of the Russian cabinet by ten members. five to be chosen from the duma and five from the council CT the empire, was tentatively agreed on as a means of making the government more truly representative of the people, according to the Daily Telegraphs Pet rograd correspondent.
 Since the duma assembled', the cor respondent adds, vigorous efforts have been made to devise some means by which the government and representa- tives of the chdmber could cooperate more closely and effectively. Some members would have preferred an inn mediate transition to a parliamentary government but this idea naturally found many opposers. An agreement was finally reached on the project un- der which five members each of the council of ministers and the duma should enter the cabinet as ministers without portfolios

proposed to show report containing a great reduction in expenses, before the next term of congress, for the benefit of which a great nation wide grand stand play" has been organized. It was pointed out that the great looping off of heads in the clerical department here was a part of the program, but few thought the scheme would extend to the heads of projects. Some hold it is a plan to acquire a lot of empty posi- tions, to which democratic proteges may be appointed after the show is over and congress has been satisfied.
 Fitch is one of the best known rec lamation engineers. He has served a long time in the construction depart ment and has been connected with sev- era! projects that have become famous as types of modern irrigation methods. He became project engineer here four years ago last March. Two years ago in October. an attempt to unseat him by dissatisfied underlings resulted in his appointment as project manager, with even fuller powers than he held before.
 With the passing of the construction period. Fitch found his work develop ing into purely administrative lines He devoted Himself strictly to the opera tion of the project, and in his closer relations with the man on the ditch bank. he found work that suited him immensely. He has been popular with the water users on account of his read mess to go with them into their prob lems His relations with the Water Users association. as an organization. have always been the most cordial. Extreme regret is expressed at his de- parture. Men who had worked With him in the building and later in admin istering the project regretted doer'- that he is now to remain in prominent connection with it. until it shall be de- clared open.
 His Successor-Mr. Cone
 Despite the fact a resolution has been passed by the board of governors of the w. U. association, recommending the appointment of F. E. Roddis. counsel for what was the Southern District of the U. S. R. s. as the successor to Fitch. the authorities have announced the selection of w. s. Cone, for two years chief electrical engineer of the project. As to MT. Cones work here nothing but the highest praise has been heard. and although he is now enter ing upon field of labor almost entire ly unfamiliar. it is thought he will con- tinue the administration successfully. His field has been power-exclusively and in some official quarters, it was sad yesterday that his appointment probably meant the emphasizing of the lmportance of the power division Of the project. over the irrigation end of It. This view was warmly attacked. but no apprehension was felt as to the aplilty of the new project manager to adjust the relationships of the power ana irrigation departments ir an en- tirely satisfactory way.

ROOT ATTACKS
(Continued from Page One)

Edgar Bracket, who long fought with the regulars in the state op- posed it.
 After discussing the proposal speci- fically Root said: ..
 We talk about government by constitution. What is government in this state? What has it been during the forty years of my acquaintance with it? Government by constitu- tion? Oh, no; not half the time, or half way When I asked what did the people find wrong in our state government, my mInd goes back to those periodic fits of rage when the people arose and tore down the po- litical leaoer of first one party then the other party.
 T am talking about the system. From the days of Fenton, Conkling, Arthur. Cornell and Platte, from the days of David Hill, down to the present time, the government of this state has presented two different lines of activ.:y, one of the c"nsti- tutional and statutory offices of Ihe state, the Gtl:-- of parry leaders they call ih> ' party bosses. They called the '."n-"ir elsin'e govern Tos, 'iJI ltIltIil'lHI It W many yearS, -GnhlinS Was tie su preme ruler of this state; the gnvcr- onr did not count; the legislators did not count. And in d great out burst of public rage he was pulled down.
 Then Platt ruled the state for nigh upon twenty years. And the capital was not here; it was at 49 Broadway with Platt and his lieut. enantS.
 And there is today throughout the state, deep, sullen resentment at be- ing governed thus by men not of the peoples choosing.
 The party leader is selected by no one and is accountable to no one He is bound not by oath of office and is removable by no one. T don't criticize the men in the invisible government. How can 1? IT have known them all, and among them have been some of my dearest friends. But it is all wrong that a government not authorized by the people should be continued superior to the government authorized by the people,.

ORAL ARGUMENT IN THE
 PASSENGER RATE CASE

Oral argument in the western ad- vance passenger rate case. which was heard last month at Chicago, will be heard at Washington before the inter state commerce commission October , and 6. Notice of the oral argument was received yesterday by the corpo- ration commission.
 The passenger rate case, in which the railroads propose a 10 per cent increase in rates throughout the west, ana to points in the intermountain states, was one of the largest and hardest fought in recent years. While no ac- tion has yet been taken, it is probable that the corporation commission will be represented at the oral argument, when the case will be submitted to the commission.

WIN
 OUT IN MATTER
 OF VALUATIONS
Text of Interstate Com merce Commissions De- cision Shows Material Advance in Liability Val uations on Live Stock.

On the ground that the liability valuations of live stock as scheduled by railroads operating west of Chi cago are unreasonably low, the in terstate commerce commission has prescribed new minimum valuations for live stock shipments. Copies of the commissions decision, which is considered a notable victory for the shippers were received yesterday at the corporation commission.
 Under the old valuation, shippers contended, the owner of an animal killed in transit was unable to re- cover but a fraction of the market value, unless excess valuation was stated and the premium thereon paid at time shipment was made. The commission after reviewing the case holds that (a) taking each class of animals by itself and making due allowance for the minimum, maxi mum and average values of each as shown by this record, the sched- uled valuations carried by these de- fendantS in their live stock shipping contracts, are unjustty and unreason- ably low and not representative of the average actual values of the animals shipped hereunder; (b) that defendants rates for the tranSporta tion of certain specified animals, the actual values of which do not ex ceed the amounts set forth in the report are, and will be for the fu- ture unreasonable to the extent that such rates exceed the present rates based upon the present, scheduled valuations; co that defendants ex- cess rates for excess valuations are unjustly and unrea sonably high. and (dl that reasonable rates for the transportation of any animal of ac tual value exceeding the amount specified in the report will exceed said present rates by not more than ? per cent of said present rates for each 50 per cent or fraction thereof of actual value over and above that named in the report"
 The scheduled valuations as they exist and as prescribed by the com mission are as follows:

The case, which was begun by the Iowa Board of Railway commission CTS was one in which the American National Live Stock Association took very active part, as the matter of proper and just liability vluation is of vital importance to all shippers. The corporation commission was also represented at the hearing of the case by Commissioner F. A. Jones. The new order becomes effective October Is.
