Miss Hall would be admirably quail fled to fill that position. He then told me that the legislature would not ere ate the office if Miss Hall or any other Republican were to be appointed to it. He said that the legislature would, however, pass a bill creating the of fee if he, MT. Winsor, would be ap- pointed to it. I supposed MT. Winsor spoke with full authority and subse- quent events indicate that he did.
 Having approved the plan of the establishment of the office, could not well make its establishment condition al upon my choice of the incumbent. The alternative presented to me was to have no such office at all, or consent to appoint MT. WinsOr to it. The question presented to me was whether the office or the incumbent was the most important consideration. I do not know that any grave objection can be urged to Mir. Winsor, except possi- bly, his political faith; and in a matter of this importance that should not overweight the desirabiIity of the es- tablishmept of the office for the pub lie good. The question was not wheth- CT Miss Hall should be considered, for that question had been settled by the legislature.
 I had to decide to have the office with Mr. Winsor as it's first incumbent or not have the office at all My judg- ment is that decided wisely to have the office, even though I could not des- ignate Miss Hall to be it's incumbent. If I had insisted on Miss Hall we would not have had the office estab- lished, SO that my action in no event can be deemed to be want of reeog- milton on my part of her worth and fitness.
 Very respectfully,
 JOS. II. KIBBEY,
 Governor.

 Ladies: I beg to acknowledge re- ceipt of your letter. I appreciate, as fully possibly as you do, the splendid work Miss Sharlot Hall has done. With others, I had hoped that her patriotic efforts might receive some authoritative recognition by the legislature. l had on several occasions expressed my ap- proval of some legislative plan for that recognition and en enable Miss Hall to complete her work as terri torial institution. As the session pro gressed, however, this seemed less and less likely. Some two weeks ago MT. Winsor, a Democrat, came to my chambers and preached the sub feet of the creation of the office of ter ritorial historian, advocating the plan upon precisely the same grounds that you do in your letter to me. I ap- proved the plan and suggested that

GOVERNOR OREXPLAINS SHARLO IT HALL
 TURN=D DOWN
Democratic Legislators Kibbey Shows Played
 Politics
(Phoenix Gazette.)

MuIoru lHSOf IS 10 pc Jne nfsJ official historian of Arizona. This was indicated very conclusively by Govern or Kibbey in letter to the Woman s Club of Phoenix, who desired the ap- pointment of Miss Sharlot NJ. Hall. It is made plain by the governor that it was impossible to appoint Miss Hall because the Democratic legislature had refused to create the position if Miss Hall or a Republican was to be ap- pointed historian, but that the legis- lature would pass such a law if Win sor was appointed.
 The following correspondence ex- plains the situation at length:
 Phoenix, Ariz., March r, 1909.
 To His Exeellency the Governor of Arizona.
 We. the undersigned members of the Woman's Club of Phoenix, acting as special committee appointed by that body in regular session, herewith pre- sent for your consideration the most urgent request of that body that the creating of the office of historian of Arizona may be accompanied by such careful investigation as will prove the unquestionable fitness and ability of the appointee for a work of such i'm portance-a work in which every eiti- ben of Arizona should be directly in terested and concerned.
 The Woman's Club of Phoenix and the Arizona Federation of WOman's Clubs has recognized the need of an adequate history of Arizona for years past and to the fullest extent in their power have coOperated in the collec- tion of material for such a work. They have hoped that the territory might officially recognize the need and de :sirability of sucha history and aid in its preparation and the preservation of the large mass of valuable data, pie tures and objects of historical interest and value which has been accumulated in the course of the work and the ad- ditional material which could still be gathered.
 The club feels that the progress of the work in which it has been so deep ly interested, and its scope anS im- portance. was unknown to or not fully by those concerned m framing the bill creating the office of territorial historian. that it was not known that much of the work pro- !! posed in that bill had already been performed without expense to the ter ritorv. and that the work could be prepared for publication in much | shorter time than would be required !. for a beginning otherwise.
 The Woman's Club of Phoenix, act ing as a body, earnestly requests such of the subject of ais torian and of the work already accom- plished with the sympathy and assist ance of the club women of Arizona, as will enable that work to become part of whatever historical record may be made; and they wish to offer the name of Miss Sharlot M. Hall, who for fir teen years or more has carried on the ,vstematf. collection of historical data llong the very lines suggested by the pill in question, for your eOnsidera- ton for the position of historian of Arizona. Respectfully submitted,

NEW YORK POLICE FORCE TREMBLES
BECAUSE OF WRONG DoNE TO BOY

NEW YORK, June 12.-Al
because justice of the supreme
court took up the case of a de.
fenseless boy who was bounded
by the police, New York's force OF
more than 5000 men is being
raked by Mayor Mcclellan. Ev-
|ery officer and man Is trembling
since the story of Geo. B. Duffy,
10, of Brooklyn, was told by JUS
tice Gaynor.
Gaynor scored "men higher
up" who permitted an innocent
boy like Duffy to be arrested time
after time and to have his picture
put in the rogues' gallery among
those of criminals.
One man now accuses the police
in Brooklyn of -Hrresting him In q
suit for debt, and of making s
rogues' gallery subject of him
When he insisted that his photo
graph had no place there the po-
lice, he says, wanted to take $25
from him before they would de-
stroy his picture.
Mayor Mcclellan accordingly
. Idt lou. III W CIOdh out thC uO-
partment, and called officers and
detectives before him.
"Lawless," ''incompetents,"
"corruptionists," 'buffoons," are
some of the words Gaynor used to
tell the mayor what he thought of
the police.
On the night of June 16, 1907,
somebody broke saloonkeeper's
window near Duffy's home in
Brooklyn. The saloon man want
ed somebody arrested and asked
his friends, the police, to obey his
orders.
This is what happened to Duffy
the same night:
He was seized and hustled to a
cell. Never having been in trou-
BILE, his first thought was of his
mother. THEN the police put him
in the sweatbox.
NOW you've got to contest" a
big sergeant Numbered.
When the police couldn't make
him tell lie, they put his picture
in the rogues' gallery. The next
morning every. policeman knew
Duffy's face.
George was stripped, measured,
photographed and inspected for
Identification marks.
Nov you can go back to your
mother" they told him.
From that time on he was
marked. Once courageous, his
spirit was broken, and, cowed In
to fear, he dared not leave his
mother while the police were
nearby.
Finally Justice Gaynor thought
1t strange Duffy should be arrest
ed so many times, yet never be
found guilty of anything.
The law, he showed, would
protect Duffy even If he wasn't a
big police commissioner, from
men like Bingham.

Old BEAVER BOILERS
Are FINALLY MOVED
FAMOUS RELICS OF PIONEER
DAYS ARE TAKEN TO NEW
RESTING PLACE NEAR IN
TERURBAN DEPOT.

The boilers of the famous old
steamer Beaver, which have been
the bone of contention for A
street property owners ever since
their establishment on the plot of
ground east of the totem pole
park, more than a month ago,
were moYed today to their new
resting place on the bluff OPP
posite the Interurban depot.
The old boilers, which are
among the most curious and in
teresting relics of pioneer days on
Puget Sound, will be erected on
the bluff just as they were in the
hull of the old steamer. The
smaller boiler will be placed on
top of the larger, and the COM
bined height being about twenty
five feet. William A. Gilstrap,
secretary of the Washington His
torical society, who is In charge
of the historical exhibit at the A.
Up, superintended the moving
of the curios this morning. He
says that the society has leased
the property on which the boilers
will stand, from the Puget Sound
Electric company, and that the
relics will remain on exhibition
there until the end of summer,
when the will be removed to a
permanent resting place.
The boilers will be erected on
a concrete and timber base. They
weigh between twenty and thirty
tons, according to Mr.. Gilstrap.

that the Bertleson charge, even
more unsubstantiated than the
others, would fail before a jury.

ted and equipped for war at half a
days notice.
Treaties between England and
America forbid the presence OF
warships In the Great Lakes, ex-
Icept a few for training and reve-
nue. purposes. Georgian bay,
however, is Canada's alone.
The Simcoe was built on the
Tyne, by firm of warship
builders. It's ostensible purpose
in the lakes is to catch fish
lpotchers and to supply light
houses. It's great comfort ia
those Canadians who think the
United States is secretly planning
Ito capture their country the first
Igood dark night.
