APPRECIATES RAILROADs


 companies have played in the upbuild- ing of the city of Birmingham and the Birmingham district. I am not unmind- full either of the fact that they should be shown every fair consideration and that they should have as reward for their efforts a reasonable and liberal return on their investment; for the question of satisfactory service is of tremendously more importance to the people of any community than the question of some slight difference be- tween what is fair profit and the profit that might be demanded by the companies but I am also equally as certain. first. that the railroad com. panies can amply afford to comply fully with the state law and build this viaduct wholly at their own ex- pense; and. second. I. am equally as certain that the effect of any magma nimity they may show in this connec- tfon will be electrical upon this com munity in the way of establishing more cordial relations between the people of Birmingham and the railroad cor porations. and I. therefore. again earn estly appeal to you gentlemen to pro- ceed at once to build this viaduct as you have agreed to do instead of de- manding the city of Birmingham to bear 20 per cent of the cost of this viaduct and that you present it to the city free of any cost whatever.
 T am aware that in this conten- tion that I stand alone as far as my colleagues are concerned They have already evidenced their willingness to bear the 20 per cent. Tn this I think they are making great error, but do not impugn their motives in any degree, feeling that they are entitled to their opinions as well as I am to mine: but am insisting on my propo- sition from the standpoint that at this time it seems to me that the railroad corporations are in need of more cor dial relations with the people, and I do not believe that these relations can be enhanced in any way more speed fly or to larger degree than by measuring up liberally with every res quirement of the law. especially when these laws were left on the statute books of the state by legislators known to be the friends of the railroad in- terests. Respectfully.

"'We will build you just as good and substantial a viaduct as you may de- sire; we will build it as high and wide as you may indicate is necessary, and because you have relieved us through your good offices of the payment of any abutting damages to property owners. and on account of the great advantage this viaduct will be to us

 Every justice court in Maricopa county will hereafter be provided every month with a list O. arrests and con- victions from every other court The penalty of the convicted will be in the discretion O. the court, but It is under stood that the courts too, are in favor af putting the ban on speeding which can pcf he done hv p0to~~vcie. alono

To stop speeding you would have to have good man on every good road in MaricOpa county" said Justice De Souza. ITO have sufficient staff Of motor officers would be out of the question"
 The Central avenue road district re- gently petiti8ned the board for an ex- tra man on duty on Central avenue, but owing to lack of funds, it was i'm possible for the county to comply with the request. The fines paid in the court cannot be used in enforceriI.nt of the law since the entire sum must go to the school fund. That this fund will be noticeably larger is probable if paragraph 5137 of Chapter s. Civil Code 1913. is carried out to the letter. The chapter in which this paragraph appears relates to the use of public highways Ey motor vehicles, fixes the speed limit and covers the infraction of that rule. The following sections refers to the punishment for viola ton of the speed law and other regulations covering the motor vehicle law, except those otfenses covered by the city ordinances:
 '5137. Any person violating any of the provisi ms of this chapter shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be pun ished by a fine not exceeding $100 or by imprisonment not. exceeding 90 days, or by both suA fine and inn pris0nment, for the first offense; and punishable by a fine of not less thar $50 nor more than S100 or imprisOn- ment for a second offense; and pun ishable by fine of not less than $100 nor more than $250 or imprisonment not exceeding 30 days. or by both such fine and imprisonment for a third or subsequent offense."

 An inquest into the death of Mrs. Fields, held before Coroner Frank De SOuZa yesterday afternoon, failed to reveal many facts not already stated in The Republican. The dying state ment of Mrs. Fields that her husband had shot her was corroborated by Con- rad Osterloh, whose home adjoins that of the dead woman. He told the cor oner and the jury that he heard the shots and saw man, fully answering the description of Fields, standing in the rear door of the Fields house and firing a revolver the shots apparently directed into the rear screen room of the little building.
