more q Ohio Railroad. told OF the
origin OF the tentative scale OF rates
under consideration. The scale was
due. ne said. TO general desire for
more scientific system.
Tho rates in question, Mr.. House

adopted for Trunk Line territory.
"As 10 the scale presented we feel
the Increases in the first four classes
are too radical for practical appli-
cation to our particular territory /
ana would tend TO unduly localize
our Industrial activity.
I'VE would also want some assur-
ance that specific dislocations OF re-
iationshlp IN class rates be taken
care OF by some flexible method
which we cannot suggest"

WILL SHIP GRAPES.
 BY WAY OF CANAL

Since California voted bone dry the grape owners have been looking around for some means wherewith to combat the aridity of the state, and it is reported that the British govern ment has offered to construct vessels that will carry grapes through the Panama canal to the eastern coast ard to France and Great Britain and deliver them as fresh as when picked from the vine. As an. illustration of the workings of the proibitory law: Grapes few years ago were sold at from $15 to $30 per ton. These grap- es were used in the manufacture of wine. When the law went into eff feet the growers were in dispair, but the bootlegger immediately took up the cudgel for them and wine grapes went rocketing to from $2O0 to $400 per ton. Even now, that no wines may be made in the state grapes are still in the ascendancy and their sale will continue. The Californians put on raisin day over the state and the slogan has gone out to eat raisins, but the people do not take to it. They drink them.

BUSINESS OF HUNBOLT SHELTER IS GROWING

Day by day the Humboldt snelter is growing in importance is shown by the output of bullion last month. The bullion weighed $50 tons and was val ued at $152,625, there being $110,0OO in gold and silver in the big mass of copper. Gradually the shelter is reaching out for the ores of the var ious parts of the state and it is ex- pected that within a short time the production will be more than double that of the present.

 ment, known as No. 100, was one of
 the most barefaced propositions ever
 put up to the people for their suf-
 frage. It proposed that the state of
 Arizona bond itself in the sum of $2,500,0O for the purpose of building left paved road from Phoenix to the Colorado river at Ehrenburg, and this without a sign of road or bridge to further the "week-end' movement of the Phoenicians into Los Angeles. Maricopa county gave 10,- 500 majority for the measure, which shows how unanimous the people of that county are to impose big tax interest upon the people of the state, without giving adequate returns for it. It is estimated that the cost of the project is in excess of $5,000,00O without considering the building of a bridge California has agreed that only two highways will be built to the east boundary of the state, one to touch at Yuma and the otherrat To- pock. But, although Maricopa coun- ty voted to impose this heavy debt on the state, we are pleased to note that the people of the state were not caught mapping and the canvass of the vote in the counties show ma jority against the outrageous meas ure. And not only is that measure defeated, but all the other measures were thrown in the discard.
 And with the defeat of the propos- ed bond issue, comes the Imaginable part of the business. Believing that the issue had carried the joymakers of Maricopa county got together at great banquet, the other night, and celebrated their victory with speech making and self-laudation. Now, they are like the Irishman who laugh ed at the bull before being tossed over the fence: they had their laugh first. | H ...
