gender the hottest fight Of any OF
the provisions.
Republicans In Arizona contend
that its recognition would make the
proposed new state OF Arizona GER

cap the Republicans In the territory
to such an extent that they would
not feel inclined to make any fight

Hold Separate Elections.
The requirements OF the senate
bill that the constitutions OF the pro-
posed states must be approved by
the preside0t and congress Is defend
ed by Senator Beverldge az a meas
ure OF justice and safety. The same
requirement was made In connection
with the admission to statehood OF
Louisiana. Alabama and Texas.
Another decided dlnerCuce be-
tween the senate and the house bin
Is the requirement in the former that
separate elections must be held for
the ratification OF the constitution
and for the selection OF state and
other officers. A precedent for such
a requirement exists in the case OF
tire admission OF Colorado.
Striking features OF the senate
bill are the restrictions thrown about
the disposition of public lands and
the appropriation OF 100000 acres
to each territory for the payment OF
eouuty railroad bonds that already

CITY INSPECTORS
SCORED FOR LAXITY
Engineer Tells Merchants AS.
sociation That Contractors
Are Allowed to Cheat

That the city's inspectors on public
buildings are still inclined to give con-
tractors plenty of opportunity to cheat
the municipality by substitution of
poor work and material is insinuated
in the latest report made to the mer7
chants association by Engineer Henry
A. Campbell. The severe arraignmcnt
of the city architects force contain ed
in last months report has apparently
had some effect, it is claimed. but has
failed to remedy the situation entirely,
according to the document.
City inspection has improved some
what since the issuance of the last re-
port" said Campbell, but there is still
room for great improvement. President
Casey of the board of public works and
acting Architect Fisher are now per-
sonally making inspections of many
buildings
On the Denman grammar school, said
the report, the contractors continued
to use an excess of sand in the con-
crete flreprooffng despite all protests.
At the same school during the half
hour of the bureau inspectors visit,
August IS, neither Of the city inspec-
tors was to be seen. Both were later
reprimanded. Numerous other Incl
tors were found mixing poor quality
concrete while the city inspector was
loafng on the job The fireproofing
of the Denman school is reported to be
''the poorest job yet done on any public
building
The bureau has also found defective
work in the Franklin school, the Sheri-
dan primary school, the Longfellow
primary, the hall of Justice and the
Hancock grammar school.
Campbell in his present report, which
covers the work of August, answers
the statements of contractors that they
are being so rigidly watched that they
can't make any profit on their work.
He recites the history of the sewer
contracts in Louisville, KY, where con-
tractors bid low, hoping to substitute
poor material and make a profit. When
the city fnaugurated a faultless sys-
tenn of espionage some of the contrac
tors failed and others were compelled
to abandon the jobs to the surety COM
panies which had gone on their bonds.
Six big surety companies in the east
are now engaged in completing the
Louisville sewer system because of the
failure of the contractors.
