The SinoLe Issue.

We have already taken pains to point out that there is only one issue to be passed upon by the voters to- morrow. That is, whether PhOeniS
 shall continue on its rapidly progress sive course of the past year, or wheth-
 CT there shall be a change and con- sequent interruption.
 | In some quarters there is an effort
 to cloud this issue by the question of
 prohibition and saloon regulation. In others the cloud of municipal owner ship has been formed.
 Every sensible man knows very well that no city council of the next two years can produce any effect upon the saloons, which are already regulated according to a decision by Judge Kent. beyond the power con- ferred by the charter to regulate them. The saloons have consented, run the risk of provoking a senti- meht that might result sometime in an act by the legislature giving Phoe- nix another kind of charter No coun- cil can raise the question of pro- hibition before the voters of Phoenix.
 Therefore. if we were to elect to- morrow an entire council composed of the leaders of the Anti-Saloon league the position of the saloons would be precisely the same at the end of their terms as if we were to elect a council composed wholly of saloonkeepers. ,*-.
 As to the municipal ownership ques- tion: That is now with the con- gress in the shape of bill author izing the qualified. voters of Phoenix to say whether the city shall issue bonds for the purpose of acquiring a municipal light and power system. If the bill passes. the people will vote regardless of the council, so that the result will be the same. whether the council were composed of officers of the Pacific Gas X Electric company or of the leading members of the mu- nicipal ownership league.
 We say that these facts are known to every sensible voter in the Second ward. But in the Second ward, as in every other subdivision of the world, there are people who are not sen sible. It is to them that the support CTS of Mir. Davidson are appealing.
Arizona republican., 1910-05-02

greater municipal progress has been made than in any previous ten-year period.
 Mayor Chrfsty has faith in Dan McDermotS to believe that he would be good man to assist in the con- tinuance of clean and progressive administration.
 Now. we ask the voters of the See ond ward to compare Mayor Christy, as to his judgment. his record, his consistent attitude-on all raoral ques. tions. with the men who are loudest in their demand for a change s tsst

QUICK SPREAD OF THE STUDY
 OF HOME ECONOMICS.

In 1899 eleven persons gathered al the first meeting of the Lake Placid conference on home economies. At the meeting of the American Home Eco monies association in Boston last Christmas 1,400 persons were present That is a. fair gauge of the growth Of interest in the subject in the last ten years.
 New York state has within three years established three state agricul- tupal schools in addition to Cornell All three have departments of home economies Cornell itself is about to put in an elaborate equipment for in- struction in household economies, in cluding plants for a commercial bakery and for a commercial canning factory President Schurman believes iitg will open up new and lucrative occupations for women. A prolonged campaign by the womens~ clubs of the state pre- ceded this action at Cornell.
 Teachers college in its new million dollar building gives now a two years course in the handling and manage ment of the household and commissary departments of big institutions like asylums, college dormitories and hos pitals, and it has already more appli- cations for women to ttake charge of such work than it can fill The usual salary offered is $l,000 a year and eX- penses,- which is a good deal more than school teachers average in the grades and a very good salary to. command after two years training.
 Such salaries are not paid rnerely for cooking Domestic science is some thing far wider than that. They are paid for keeping down household 'ex- penses, for getting value out of money, for serving better and more nu- tritious food on less money than was used before. for knowing how to mar ket how to run a house.
 The University of Illinois has com modious dwelling house as part of its equipment for domestic science in which students are instructed in every branch of the care. decoration and cost of running a house. All the western state universities and many others, practically all the agricultural colleges, many state normal schools and great numbers of colleges and other institu-
  as west, now include departments of domestic science.
 In 1896 domestic science was taught In only eleven schools in New York city. all elementary schools in Manhat- tan. It is now taught in IA element ary schools of the various boroughs. and in the last year the board of edu- cation voted to extend it to all the high schools, in some Of which it was al- ready installed. This is a sample of the way in which this new branch of has spread in the public schools all over the country in the last ten years.
 Universities Take 1t Up.
 In Newark they started in 1902 with TWO small classes, which worked at boards laid across wooden supports, sinks, faucets or refrigerator. At the end of six weeks the pupils cooked and served a course dinner to he board of education, whose members were present during the preparations| If the meal. That settled it. Newark

Mayor christy and the Performers.

The argument in favor of one Of the candidates for the council in the Second ward is that conditions in the city have become such that there is need of intervention by the reform CTS; that good republican is made quate; in short, that there is need of reform. hence need of reformer. We have nothing to say against the character of the independent candi- date. but the records of his chief sup porters do not, as everybody in the ward is aware. indicate that they are O. the stuff of which reformers are made.
 There is another man in that ward who has a record of being on the side of reform when there is need Of re- form. He is known by the voters of the Second ward from childhood. He is Mayor Lloyd B. Christy, who for a score of years. or ever since he attained young manhood, has been identified with every movement for the moral and financial betterment Of Phoenix. He stands, as he ought to stand, in immeasurably higher esti- nation among his neighbors and the voters of the Second ward than any of the professional reformers for rev. enue or influence.
 Mayor Christy is not a candidate for any office. but he is hearty en- dorser of Dan McDermott for the council. Mayor Christy has given Phoenix the cleanest, ablest, most businesslike administration it has ever had. In the year of it that has passed
Arizona republican., 1910-05-02
A Purifying Incident.

The prompt action taken by Mayor Christy in the matter of the disclo- sures of an attempt by certain repub- licans at colonization in the Second ward is a further illustration Of the cleanliness of his administration The suspension Of Officer Troutman does not mean that he has been adjudged guilty of connection with it, but the allegation that he was connected with it constituted a cloud which the mayor would not allow to obscure his ad- ministration.
 Likewise the leaders of the repub- lican city organization have expressed their disapproval of methods which have been practiced in Phoenix from the earliest times, though that is no defense Of them.
 The expose in this instance. we believe. so far as it has been spe- officially made, discloses the presence in the Second ward of three or per haps four 'floaters," all qualified
 
 voters. Though their presence was not a violation of the law. 1t was as much q violation of good political morals as if there had been 300 or 400 floaters. The expose" has been made by democratic workers who, by the way, were democratic workers when the Young Mems Democratic club was in the saddle and remained in the saddle until it was unhorsed by the weight of the worst political excesses that have ever disgraced Phoenix.
 At this very moment, it is stated on the best authority, the democrats have colonies of their own from which they hope to divert attention by pointing the finger of accusation in another direction.
 Colonization is indefensible, by whichever party it may be practiced- It can only be drowned upon as Mayor Christy and the republican leaders have drowned upon it, until there is an amendment of the city charter providing that all warG elections shall be held at the same time.
 In the meantime, such prompt &C., tion as the mayor has taken in this instance will have a tendency to dis courage it, and to attract attention unfavorably to it.
 If the mayor had been mere poli- tician, inasmuch as no defined crime against the ballot had been commit ted. he could have slurred the thing over and have classified the expose" as campaign lie Public confidence. in him would have endorsed that or any other course with respect to the matter that he might have chosen to take.
 But he did not know whether it was q campaign lie" or not. and he | felt that neither the administration ] nor the party should assume that it i was.
 This incident itself will result to some extent in the purificatiOn of Phoenix. politics. The action Of the mayor has stigmatized as offensive and unallowable a practice which aill parties and factions had been prone to regard as commonplace. co.
