Equal Suffrage Bill Passes House.

House bill No. 81 passed the house
with good majority. The Phoenix
Republican in commenting upon its
passage said.
blouse bill No. 81 passed the house
yesterday by a comfortable majority.
did so, they said sfterward, with the
understanding that the council, follow
ing u time honorcd custom, would i'm
pede ITS further progress. 1t will be
remembered that the house two years
ago intended to do the same thing, but
word having been received from the
council that that body was tired OF be-
ing made the buffer between the house
and the Infatuated women, would pass
the bill up to the governor. 1t was ac-
cordingly destroyed in the house.
The opinion prevails that the house
would have passed the bill anyhow re-
CARELESS OF the probable action OF the
council"
The debate was closed by Mr.. Webb.
He said from the temper of the house
the bill needed no further discussion,
but he would not feel that he had
properly served his constituents or
himself unless he not only cast his vote
for the measure but also raised his
voice in its behalf. He then entered
upon an Celebrates, eloquent and i'm
passioned argument in favor OF the
l., cd ,,.i. !,
dent OF woman of his county, the in
tellectual equal OF any man who had
ever occupied seat in an Arizona
legislature. She was wealthy and en-
could neither read nor write. Yet
they were the sOvereigns who indi-
rectly formed the laws for her. In
conclusion the speaker appealed to the
American sentiment OF his hearers.
He directed an especial appeal to Mr..
Rowe, an avowed opponent of the
measure and one of 20 years ex-
perience in public and political life.
At the close OF Mr.. Webb's speech.
which was unsurpassed in eloquencc or
excellence in delivery by any address
in the history of the Arizona legisla-
ture, the bill went to vote with the
following:
Ayes-Collins, Cowan, Herr, Henry,
Marlar. Morrison, Parr, Lamont, Roe
mer, Schilling. st. Charles, Webb,
Whiteside. Williams, Woolf and the
speaker-l6.

furnace, which ordinarily requires one
ton OF coal for every 81 tons of ore, will
smelt ton OF ore per barrel OF oil, so
that 81 barrels of oil are the smelling
cality where coal costs Sc per ton and
fuel oil so cents barrel. Under pres
ent conditions the use OF oil means an
economy of 80 per cent. Besides this
also been found advantageous because
the oxidizinS atmosphere of a roasting
furnace can be maintained without
those interruptions which take place
when fresh coal is Neutrality-suspicious.
which are accompanied by the intro
duction of reducing gases which tenn
porarily cause the process OF oxidation
to remain at standstill. Moreovr, it
is possible with oil, by regulating the
air inlet of the furnace, to control the
smelling atmosphere 80 as to obtain
oxidizing or reducing conditions, as the
metallureist may desire. The ability
to increase thu temperature of a metal
lurgical operation with notable ease is
another good future. 1t is an inter

ditions, and the readiness with which
it has been used is typical OF that pro-

The Governor Caught On.

y dispatch from Phoenix to the Tue
son Citizen announces that Governor
Brodie has decided not to appoint Col
ouel ZabriSkie a regent OF the Terri
torial university. The governor is
very angry with Zabriskie because OF
the introduction OF the bill in the
council seeking to increase the salary
of the secretary OF the board OF re-
gents to $50 month, and the salary of
the regents TO $500 year. This was a
a scheme to make salary OF 81, 100 a
year for Zabriskie, with some other
pickiugs on the side. The governor
does not intend TO remove Zabriskie,
but when he sends the names of the re-
gents Of the university to the council
for confirmation he will substitute
some one else for Zsbriskie.
