sion, which showed that the per cent Iates from eastern shipping points to Arizona as compared with the rates to Pacific coast terminals are as follows:
 From New York territory to Arizona sixty-two per cent more than to ter minals from Pittsburg territory to Arizona, fifty per cent more than to terminals; from Chicago territory to Arizona. forty six per cent more than to terminals; from Missouri river to Arizona, thirty Hive per cent more than to terminals.
 Our contention is that so long as it has been conclusively proven that no water competition exists between At lantic and Pacific ports at the present time. that the spirit of the long and short haul law should be observed and that Arizona and other intermOuntain points should receive lower rates than latter points have always enjoyed lower rates due to this alleged water competition.
 This commission was ably represen- ted at all of these hearings and the character of our exhibits received very favorable commendation by all parties in interest.
 We feel assured that the federal body will, in it's wisdome, see the justice or our contention anu tidt lho ion6 standing determinations between the intermediate and terminalrates, will be removed. This case is one of the most important that has ever been before the federal body and has been bitterly fought by the railroads. Therefore in the event that we reveive favorable consideration from the commission, Arizona will finally come into her OWE in the matter of reasonable freight rates from eastern shipping points.

Military Department
 Has Shown Efficiency

The military department has made a record of efficiency during the
 past wear that has not been equalled during any previous year. The first of the year 1916 found our troops do-
 ing str ke duty at Clifton, one of the
 hardest duties that the guard is called
 upon to perform. The euardsmaa
 enlists with the icea of training him
 self to defend his country in time Of
 war ard accepts the additional duties
 that he is required to perform with aversion. but accepts them never the
 less and performs those duties when called upon. His aversion to doing strike duty is only equalled by his aversion to doing police duty for the
 regul24' army in time of peace.
 The record of troops in the Clifton
 More nci district is without a parallel in labor troubles. With thousands of
 men on strike there was no trouble of ainy kind between the troops and
 citizens of the district. the troops
 did not fire a shot While in the dis
 trict. no lives were lost and no prop
 erty vantorlv destroyed. By compar-
 ing the record of the Arizona troops with that of any other state troops
 in any other strike district during the
 's1st few years, citizens Of this state
 e'ill appreciate the service of their
 own men.
 Our troops returning from the Cliff ton district to Yuma, were met at Yuma with another of those problems the guard must meet. A flood had , swept through Yuma doing thousands of dollars of damage and the people l were homeless. The troops acted as extra police in this district and pro- l vided tentage to house the homeless Hardly had our troops been finally elieved from state duty, when on Ma y. 1916. came g call from the presi- | dent for our troops to assemble al Douglas for federal duty. Many of these men had already been taken away from their families and homes Tor the greater part of the previous six months, and yet in 72 hours aftes Ihs call was received. the train left TT oenix with all of our equipment ard the troops. The regiment was 1 not full when it arrived at Douglas fJut was larger than the regular Regiments there. We immediately es 1 tablished a state recruiting service soon bringing the regiment up tc over a thousand men. a larger nm her in proportion to our population |. than any of the other states raised

TOPEKANS ANXIOUS
Many Already Are Trying to Establish
Their Draft Exemptions.

Not three hours after Topeka's two
exemption boards met and organized
Topeka men, subject to draft, began
begging and pleading with members
of the board for special consideration
that would exempt them from their
country's service in the French
trenches. A deaf ear has been turned
to all such cases and members of the
board hope that the government will
take some drastic action that will
keep the tears and fluctuations of
Topeka's family men away from them
until the proper time arrives.
I'VE would open ourselves to jus
tifiable criticism if we would promise
anything at this time before we know
what the exemptions will be-" said a
member of one of the Topeka boards
today. Then, too, it doesn't look like
very good craftsmanship for man to
begin crying for exemptions when he
should know that the government will
be fair and square in its rulings on
exemptions"

TRUCE IN R. R. CASE
Illinois Lines to Issue Coupons to Re-
deem Overcharge on Tickets.

Chicago. June 28.-The fight be-
tween the state of Illinois and twenty
nine railroads over the latter's in
crease of passenger rates from to
"a cents a mile, in defiance of the
state laws, resolved itself into tenn
porary truce today on agreement be-
tween Attorney General BrundaSe
and council for the railroads.
Brundage and the railroads agreed
to hold the matter in allegiance until
December 31-to permit a decision by
the United States supreme court on
Federal Judge Landis's ruling, which
was against the railroads.
AS a part of the armistice, the rail-
roads agreed to issue coupons with
each ticket sold-covering the differ
ence between the 2 and "a cent rates
to be redeemed in case the supreme
court upholds Landis's decision. They
will set aside a trust fund to cover
these coupons, and filed a stipulation
to that effect in Superior Judge FoelPs
court today:
Charge Court Hasn't Jurisdiction.
The railroads also filed an answer
to Foell's recent mandate citing them
to show cause why they should not
be held in contempt of court for vio-
lation of the injunction issued by him
May 81, restraining them from charg-
ing a higher passenger rate than
cents a mile. The answers were prac-
tically identical and among other
| things denied that the court had jur-
| isdiction to issue an injunction against
them.
The "a cent rate, which was per-
mitted in a ruling by the interstate
commerce commission, went into eff
feet June 10. This was in accordance
with an order issued June by Fed
eraI Judge Dyer of St. Louis, Mo, al
| lowing the increase.
