WESTWARD HOI

General Fred Funston "has gone West, "-as is the saying on
 European battlefields. His loss to the nation will be as keenly felt as it is keenly regret He cut his own niche in the tenn
 pie of the famous. Throughout his career, he bore the colors of the citizenry as opposed to the trained military man, and the country has intently watched him rise from colonel to major general, but major general does not measuse his rank in popular estimation. He was one of the peoples ideals. Rejected at West Point because he failed to pass the entrance examination, he started at the bottom and fought up to the top. He forced recognition from none too sympathetic army adminiStra- tion composed of West Pointers, and the people were his strong est advocates for promotion, because he was essentially one of them. No American soldier since Grant has held higher place in the esteem of the un- military American people, and one has feeling that his un- timely cutting off anticipated the meeting of the man and the emergency which would have added further glory to his ca reer. The west was proud of Funston because he was a vest erner and he seemed the embodi- ment of those traits on which westerners put premium, man. Illness, courage, liberality and catholicity. Nowhere will sor- row be keener than among the rank and file of the army. Death has touched the nation in a ten der spot. Daily Star.

benefits of the stockmens home- stead law. In taking up original home- steads under the 64O acre stock raising homestead law the entry man must comply with the re- gular homestead laws with the exception of cultivation. He must reside on the land for seven months out of ten for the period of three years and put improve ments on the land to the value of SIPS Ter acre.
 The fees to be paid to the United States Land Office are as follows:
 6l0 acres single minimum land would be S24 plus $1O, $34.

 The filing of the petition and application and acceptance of the same by the district land office does not give the right of occupancy of the land, the land cannot be occupied until it has been segregated by the secretary of the interior, but the lands are withdrawn and held suspended from all other entries pending the action of the secretary.
 All petitions and applications must be made in duplicate form.

ARIZONA COPPER.

Arizona's production of copper in 1916 reached the staggering figure of 675. .OOO, ,OOO pounds, re- presenting approximately value of $19O, 100000. This is over 5O,OOO,OOO pounds more than the total production of the two next largest producing sta ates, Mon tana and Michigan.
 The progress of Arizona in the production of copper is without parallel. The first available record of production was in 1883, and ten years ago the produc- tion was .117,OOO pounds. With the rapid development now un- der way it is difficult to forecast what the production will be 8 few years hence.-Yavapai.

The Grand Canyon National Park.

|
 mand that . National Park be
 created at the Grand Canyon 1T
 Arizona, Honorable Carl Hayden
 has introduced in the House 2
 carefully prepared bill the enact
 ment of which will acomplist
 this purpose. The bill provides that certain lands now included
 within the Grand Canyon Ma
 tional Monument shall be sei
 aside ard dedicated as a public
 park for the benefit and enjoy ment of the people under the
 name of the Grand Canyon Ma
 tional Park
 The area of the present mon
 ument is ,26O square miles but
 the proposed park will contain
 only 996 squares so that 6f sec
 tions of land that are now with drawn from all forms of entry
 will be made available for graz ing and others uses. IL is the inten tion of the bill that nothing but the scenic portions of the Canyon with su dicient areas back from the rim to permit the con- struction of roads shall be in cluded within the National Park. In order to be sure that the boundaries of the proposed Ma tional Park will be entirely SatiS- factory to all concerned Con- gressman Hayden has forwarded maps showing it's limits to the Board of Supervisors of Cocon- ino county for their approval before the bill is considered by congress.
 Section ? of the bill provides that the Grand Canyon Nation al Park shall be administered by the secretary of the interior in with the na tional park service act which became law last year. This law autho- rizes grazing permits to be issued but such a comparatively small area of grazing land is included within the park that only few permits will be necessary.
 The Hayden bill fully protects the interests of those who have heretofore acquired property rights within the proposed park. Provision is made for the devel- opment of water power under laws and the secretary of the interior is authorized to permit mining whenever con- sistent with the primary purpo- ses of the park. The United States reclamation service is also granted the right to con- strucG reservoirs whenever necessary.
 It is believed that by the esta- of national park at ,he Grand Canyon the way will pc paved for securing appropria ions by congress for the con ,truction of roads and trails which will make the canyon much more accessible to visitors. Over 100000 tourists visited the Irand Canyon in 1915 but an .ven larger number are certain | o come each year, particularly | f good roads are constructed so hat automobiles can drive along he rim and view the greatest | natural wonder in the world.

A RuIe-oERuin Policy

constitutional, the railroad men still
have remedy in sight. When the
country goes 10 war the railroads will
be put under much stricter Govern
mental control. The President will be
authorized to operate them If he
thinks Il necessary TO do 80. His rep
resentatives can introduce the eight
hour day and can raise wages either
directly or indirectly. Freight charges
are now regulated by the Government.
10 is only fair and logical that rail-
road wages should be similarly regu-
lated. Operating expenses and freight
rates should be co-ordinated.
The brotherhood leaders are there
fore unable TO justify a strike on the
ground that they must either get what
they want before war comes or give
up all hope OF getting II. They have
preferred to raise an issue with the
railroad Arrangements, which no
longer have n free hand 70 increase
wages because they are not allowed
to increase freight rates.
The brotherhoods went to the Presi-
dent and Congress last summer wiz
their appeal for higher pay They
should now await the result OF that
appeal. They should continue to deal
with Congress and the Administration.
Their occupation is one which ought
10 be regulated in all It's details by
Federal authority. wage strikes
directed against railroad companies
have become an anachronism. When
the brotherhoods went to Congress for
relief they shattered a fiction In the
railroad industry which had long out
lived its usefulness. The sooner they
realize that they must deal hereafter
with the Government and with the
public behind the Government, and
not with the railroad executives, the
better IL will be for all concerned.
