A movement being fathered by rep
resentatives of the Federal Labor
union to arrest one Of the contractors
doing city work for not living up to
the ordinance providing that the work
day on city work shall be eight hours
with f2.25 pay is looked on with
alarm by some of the city officials.
They are alarmed because they be.
lieve If the ordinance is tested it will
be defeated in the courts and the men
will be the sufferers.
As a point at issue It was pointed
out to a Press reporter that some
months ago the city Of Seattle sued
a contractor for not complying with
city ordinance providing that the
city work day should be eight hours.
The case was appealed to the supreme
court and the city lost the case. The
points at issue are almost identical
In It's ruling the supreme court held
that the city could not legislate for
one class as against another.
Last winter the state legislature
took up the matter and passed a law

Ex-Governor Murphy returned to Phoenix from Washington yesterday morning. When asked about the out look for statehood he said:
 There is a fighting chance only, with the odds very much against us. While the friends of the omnibus bill have a clear majority of at least five the difficulty lies in forcing a vote. Senator Quay is active, earnest and resourceful but the shrewd managers of the opposition control the appropri- ation bills and other privileged legis- lation and are in position to obstruct delay and prevent vote which IS their declared policy. It is also assert ed on good authority that the Presi- dent desires the defeat of the omnibus bill and is exerting his influence against it. It goes without saying that if he is insistent, the bill cannot be passed. There may be reaction in our favor but to me the outlook is not very encouraging. We have gain ed some votes and lost others and dis affection among the democrats is charged. notably, Senators Bacon, Vest and Cockrell The fate of the measure wholly depends upon secur- ing a vote.
 What about the reports of the sena- torial committee which lately visited the territories?
 They are the subject of much ad verse criticism even among the enc mics of statehood Many of the state ments they contain are so manifestly unjust and so easily disproves that they are only injurious in influencing the uniformed regarding investments and territorial credit. Influential men are industriously contradicting these evil reports and strong speeches will be made by senators who will vote against statehood but who deplore the slanderOIs statements which have been circulated against our develop ment and resources"
 How does Senator Beveridge stand in Washington?
 He does not stand at all. even among our enemies He is largely subject of ridicule and is simply being used as tool and quite effectively be- cause of his position as chairman of the committee on territories"
 Upon what in your judgment is the real reason for opposing admission based?
 "On ignorance sectionalism and se,- fishness, particularly the latter. The talk about lack of people, illiteracy, absence of resources, immortality, wrong politics, etc, is simply made to

There you have the whole story. There is neither states marshiE, patriotism, good politics, nor any worthy reason for their conduct but in their selfishness and assump- tion of superiority is found why they are opposing us and it is exceedingly unfortunate that they have been able to deceive the President"
 Are any of our home people oPpos- ing the bill?
 One can hear all sorts of rumors in Washington on that score, but I hes itate to believe that any one here has been guilty of such treachery to the best interests of the territory. I could say a great deal of the work that is being done for and against the omni- bus bill and relate many details and much gossip which would not benefit anybody.

SCOTT GETS OUT
 OF TIGHT PLACE
TRIED YESTERDAY FOR ASSAULT
 TO MURDER PARKER
Evidence Against Him Not Sufficient
 Warrant Binding Over to Grand Jury--Parker's Hearing Tomorrow


 E. B. Scott was given a hearing be- fore Justice Mcdonald yesterday af ternoon on tie charge of assault to commit murder upon the person of Richard Parker. The evidence against him was not strong enough to warrant ais being bound over to the grand jury, and was dismissed. Scott will be tried later for assault and battery.
 The courtroom was crowded with people anxious to learn what brought about the fight between Scott and Parker In this they were disappoint- ed for but little reference was made to the domestic difficulty that resulted in the two men mixing.
 The first witness called for the pros ecution was John Seymour. who testi- fled that he was in the St. Elmo sa loon, when the trouble occurred just outside. He saw Parker fall into the saloon through a door, after hearing three shots fred He left the saloon about this time.
 The testimony of William Seymour threw more light on the affair than any other. He said that he saw Scott buy a flask of whiskey and walk through the saloon. He heard Parker say to Scott that he did not want to have any trouble, and the latter re- ply that Parker had broken up his family.
 Parker was placed on the stand. and said that he went to the door to talk to Scott. The latter made the first assault upon him. He could not say whether it was with knife or a razor. He saw nothing in his hands, but felt himself cut on the neck.
 J. W. Farris passed by the two men, who were standing on the bridge in the rear of the fire house. He heard them talking but did not expect any trouble and walked on. Later he heard three shots fired, and Scott fell from the porch.
 Dr. Edmundson testified that he had dressed Parker's wound and that it was a cut on the left side of the neck just below the ear. half an inch deep and three-quarters long. He thought at first that it had been caused by a bullet, but later decided that i. was done with some sharp instrument.
 Scott himself gives about the only explanation of how the wound was in- ficted. He says that after some words Parker shot at him. and he tried to clinch. In reaching around his neck he hit him with a whiskey bottle that he had in his hand: He was not asked whether or not the bot tie was broken. He claims that he was shot in the abdomen before he made pass at Parker.
