 Of all expenses entering into cost of railroad operation, payments for. lost or damaged freight are deads loss to all concerned and may prop erly be termed economic waste. And that is because the payments are for useful things that have been lost. damaged or destroyed After settle ment has been made, no one is any better off than he was before the loss or damage occurred, while the coun- try is poorer to the extent of the value of the property destroyed. and the shippers are annoyed and disap- binted at the failure of their goods to reach them in good order.

J. $. PAYS FOR KEEP
 0F INDIAN WARDS

Though no longer director of state institutions. Clayton Bennett yester- day came into possession of q gov ernment check for more than $200 for the, care of Indian pupils at the state industrial school. That has been turned over to the state treasury.
 Here was source of revenue to the state which had been overlooked ever since the origin of the industrial school. Though there had been many Indian children there. it did not occur to anybody that a beneficient gov ernment was responsible for them.
 But Mir. Bennett had been so fami- liar with the Indian service that he knew that the government was re- sponsible for the keep of its wards wherever they might be. He accord ingly took the matter up with the bureau, which without demur, made payment until more than $7.o0e had been received from that source. |

RANGES IMPROVED BY. REGENT RAINS

Previous to the showers of the week just ended much uneasiness was expressed regarding the pros- poets for feed about Congress Junc- ton and other desert sections de- voted to the grazing of cattle, sheep and goats during the winter. Recent heavy showers have removed all fears of a shortage of grass or water as all the grasses and forms of browse are developing rapidly and water holes are all well filled. It is said that the range in many. open places resembles meadow and that at the close of the rainy season a large amount of grass will be cut and stacked for winter use.
 Rains were heavy on the drainage basin of the Roosevelt reservoir, Fort Apache reporting nearly two inches for the week Heavy rains occurred on the Verde and tribu- taries. Seligman reported a weekly fall of 3.30 inches. The observer at Nogales states that range conditions are the best in years and reports from all portions of the southern border indicate that pastures and stock are in most satisfactory shape. Over eight inches of rain have fallen in the Flagstaff section since the be- ginning of summer rains and the ground is thoroughly soaked, the ob- server stating that farms and range are in better than 100 per cent con- dition.
 The weather bureau observer at Yuma reports that dates are begin ming to ripen and some local lemons are on the market. The date crop from the Yuma orchard will not be large owing to drastic treatment for scale earlier in the season. Potatoes are doing well in the Flagstaff sec- ton and have suffered none from blight or bugs. the latter having dis appeared from the section.
