1T PLEAsEs THE SERVANTS
Berlin Police Arbitrarily Fix the Sums
They Shall Be Allowed Tor
Food.

Another instance of the way in
which the Berlin police authorities in
terest themselves in every detail OF
the private life Of the city's inhabi-
tants is afforded by a decree just is
sued by the police president which
arbitrarily fixes the sum per day
which is to be allowed for food to-
domestic servants during their en-
ployers' absence in summer
The term domestic aervant~ in
cludes everything, from the maid Of
all work Of the small household to the
butler. with all his retinue Of lesser
lights, in the house OF the rich. and
the decree lays down that each man
servant shall receive a daily allow
ance Of 35 cents and each maid ser
want 30 cents fer food during the
whole time of their employers alb
sence.
The new police regulation has been
greeted with more delight by the
servants than by their employers, es-
pecialIy among the middle classes,
where the domestic servant problem
in Germany is already acute enough
Although the amount Of the daily al
lowance cannot be considered as ex
cessive in relation to the present
prices Of food. when it is remembered
that the ordinary wage. which in Ger
many is anything from $3.50 per
month upward for the average domes-
tic servant, has also to be paid dur
ing the employers absence, it viii be
seen that the new regulation VAL
mean a considerable item in tho
reckoning of the middle-class family
about to start on its summer vacation.

A practical demonstration of the
building Of automobiles will be given
November 4 at 1880 p. m. at the
Star Theater by the Studebaker Cor
poration of which the local represen-
tative is w. T. Phillips. Ten thous-
and feet Of pictures said to be the
largest commercial film ever made,
give views OF the various operations
incidental to the manufacture of
motor cars from the raw pig iron to
the finished car
The experience is exactly the same
as though you visited the factories,
AS one man aptly remarked you

About one hour and forty-five minutes

witness one complete operation, it
would take four months to make the
tour Of inspection Watching this
wonderful set Of pictures, all life-size,
you realize for the first time, what a
$7,OO0,0O0 investment in machinery
means. A large number Of automat-
ic machines are utilized with the re-
suit that the automobiles are assembl-
ed without touch of hammer reamer
or file. Perhaps. the most marvellous
piece of machinery in the entire fac
tory is a magazine automatic, which,
without attention from a human be-
ing, feeds ITSELF, performs eight dis
tinct and separate operations, and dis
charges the finished part This ma.
chine was invented by Miss Kate

One film shows battery Of ten au-
tomato machines, each performing
seven different operations, all con
trolled by one lone workman In
other words, this man with the aid Of
automatic machinery performs the
exact amount Of work that would re-
quire seventy men under less modern
methods. 1t is almost impossible TO
give an adequate idea OF the realistic
panorama that the films present to
the eye. At the outset, one sees hun

 "The various departments are be- ing managed with efficiency and common sense. The water department which has been permitted to run heavily in debt, has been placed upon a business footing; free water has been cut off, the number of meters has been doubled in seven months, wastes have been stopped and an ade- quate supply of water furnished for all purposes during the hot months, where every year heretofore there has been a famine in certain districts.
 "Our streets are well paved and kept clean and sewers are maintained; :; the health of the city was never so good; public service corporations are encouraged and enforced, when neces- sary, to give good service; back fran chise taxes are collected and the af- fairs of the city generally are con ducted along modern business lines.
 "'The preferential system of vot- ing. the short ballot and the election of commissioners at large, who select one of their number as mayor, are other features which have strong argu- ments in their favor. Hereafter not more than three commissioners will be chosen at any election, giving the voter no excuse for ignorance of the men or their duties. We require a non-partisan affidavit and restrict the use of money for election purposes to S25O for any candidate.
 "By our system of voting the re- suits of the election express the will of the majority much more closely than could be obtained by caucus, convention. and ward representation.

NEW MACHINERY
 FOR NAVY IS PRAISED
lFrom Mednesdav,s Dailvl

(FrOm Wednesdays Daily)
 Observing and practical mining men who have recently visited Copper Basin and inspected the new maehin- cry that is being installed by George c. Meese at the old U. s. Navy mine, speak highly of the character of the appliances and the businesslike man. ner in which the property starts off under the system introduced. Every utility has a substantial cOnsidera tion which combined with the practi- cal mine methods to be followed, gives the undertaking a forecast of being one of the heaviest and most successful of producers of the min erals it carries The greater portion of the heavy equipment has been talk en to the works from Skull Valley, but the immense boiler of 150 horse power, was delayed in transmission until a specially constructed wagon was secured. Inside of thirty days the work of pumping out the old workings and extracting ore will be inaugurated. Thousands of tons are exposed, which with the immense ton mage on the dumps left by Douglas, Lacey & Co. assures a permanent pro- dueer for years to come. The U. $. Navy ores contain principal values in lead and zine, and before negotia- tiOns were concluded for taking over the property by MT. Meese and asso- eiates of Joplin, Mo-, several hundred pounds were submitted to a thorough and practical testing in the east. Shipping from the old dumps has be- gun, and sOOOO pounds have been assorted for treatment at COffeyville, Kansas, to be followed later by regu- lar cOnsignments.

Strength of Ralph Cameron at National Capital One of Greatest Assets
 New State Could Command

be best advanced through the plans
 that are being worked out by Presi-
 dent Taft and the tariff board. In
 his big trip west President Taft has ! told the country, as he did congress ! during the summer, that his vetoes of
 the wool and cotton bills were for the
 best interests for the whole people,
 and he is supported by those who have
 made 1t their business to find out. in
 the claim set forth that no institu-
 tiOn the government has installed in
 recent years has more readily proven its worth than the tariff board, through which any schedules that per tain to the growth and manufacture of any staple product can be readily and accurately determined. With the information which is being boiled down. any set of business men could intelligently draft a proper tariff. With this great aid to congressman, representatives whose sympathies are with republican principles in the ad- vancement and progress of the coun- try, the prosperity of great regions like the southwest can be easily pro- noted. The strength of men like Cameron at the national capitol is one of the greatest assets that new state could command, and with a team like Ralph Cameron and Hoval Smith, Arizona would have a representation in the senate second to no state in the Union. MT. Smith has been a material aid to Delegate Cameron in affairs at the capitol. It is a little to understand how a new state can refuse to accept the services of representatives of this kind. and the primary election it is to be confidently hoped that the republican delegation will be chosen | by Arizona.

COMMISSION RULE IS
 SUCCESS IN SPOKANE

SPOKANE, Wash, Nov. 1.-Seven months experience with the com mission form of government in Spo- kane, which is under the control of the people through the preferential election system, the initiative and referendum and the recall, has proved highly successful. Direct efficiency has replaced responsibility and in- competency, party bossism has been eliminated, the laws are enforced, the tax payers are obtaining 100 cents worth of work for a dollar, municipal improvement bonds command high premiums and the city's credit is gilt edge in the financial centers through out the country.
 Charles M. Fassett, commissioner of public utilities, speaking for the com mission, says the people, as a rule, are satisfied with the change and that it is doubtful if even those who were most active against the present character would vote to return to the old system. There are some, of course, who honestly believe the old form is better, he added, but the chief op- position to the adoption of the char ter and its continuance comes from those whose private selfish interests are being interfered with by the ben encial change in administration in trodueed by the present government.
 Enumerating the chief points of ad- vantage of the commission form of government over the party system, MT. Fassett says:
 "For the first time in its history the community is not disturbed by political wrangling at the city hall. Our commissioners often do not agree on various measures, but differences are soon healed and there is harmony and good feeling between them.
 Each commissioner has charge, un- : of his department and the tax payer knows to whom to apply for his needs. The result is that business is dis patched in hours and days where it formerly required weeks and months.
 "Street and other improvements are made for from 20 to 40 per cent less than in recent years, without reducing the city wage scale or decreasing our standards of quality. The contractors ring is broken and most of our work goes to those who have done the best work in the past. For the first time in our history a contractor has been fined for delaying public work.
 "Our tax levy will be the same as last year, notwithstanding a deficit of about $9O,OOO left by the former government and the settlement of

 WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. l. - News of the results of the primaries throughout Arizona has been eagerly received by political Washington, and even though the vote indicates that the electors voted mostly for the democratic candidates, those gentle men who have at heart the advance ment of the republican party are not disposed to believe that in the choice of the representatives for the senate and house, that the republicans are going to eventually lose out. It has been pointed out that in Arizona the fact of the fight within the political parties having been confined mostly to the democratic candidates, that naturally the voters have taken a hand in settling the differences among the rival candidates rather than simp- ly expressing their choice regarding a republican ticket which was practi
 calIy complete at the outset. When it is recalled that statehood for Ari- zona resulted from the work of Ralph H. Cameron it is somewhat difficult for people here, who know and appre- ciate the great service he performed during a single term, to understand how it could be possible for a eOnsti- tuency to ignore his claim for the senate In view of the conditions which confront the nation, and which will form subjects to be determined by congress, it is difficult to under stand how a gerat area like that of Arizona, would permit itself to be represented by men opposing sane tariff legislation. No section of the country is more dependent for its de- velopment and advancement on prae tical tariff laws than the great south west, and its principal interests can

RICH GOLD STRIKE
 I SMADE IN NELSON
From Fridays Daily.)

Arrivals in Prescott yesterday from
 Crown King bring the information of
 the greatest strike ever made in the Bradshaw mountains in the Nelson
 mine, which is under the management
 of Geo. P. Harrington, and consider
 able excitement was prevailing. An
 eight foot ore body, sampling $25 in
 gold to the ton had been determined
 in the drift running north from the
 bottom of the 1s0 foot shaft, which
 is the deepest point reached. For 75
 feet a continuous ore body is develop
 ed, containing a heavy sulphide of
 iron, and as drifting progresses the grade of the ore continues to improve.
 As the drift is being run foot for foot in depth is being reached owing to the contour of the mountain and which will not necessitate sinking the main shaft for the present to further depth.
 The Nelson Is new undertaking in that field, and is situated on one of the greatest outeroppings in that district, which can easily be followed for over ten miles. This is the first practical work extended that Assure, although mining men have entertained for the property a high opinion from the network of veins that appear on the surface at seven distinct points. Under this condition MT. Harrington in beginning development a few months ago, selected the easterly vein for sinking the main working shaft with the intention later of crOsscut- ting from a designated point. When a depth of about so feet had been reached. the incline shaft passed away from the vein, but the work continued until the shaft was 1S0 feet deep, when his plans were carried out so far as three of the veins were to be explored. The results were but appreeiating that the ore bodies were indicative of sur face conditions it was decided to con- tinue the main shaft to greater depth or to begin drifting north for the vein that had been passed at the upper level, which would give the depth required. As this work pro- gressed the vein was cut, with hand some results.

READY TO WASH
 SUMMIT OF RICH HILL
(From Wednesdays Daily)

' DdAlN
 Andrew Peterson, who is in the city from Stanton, states that during the storms of last week Antelope Creek carried the largest body of water that had ever been known in its history, reaching over five feet in depth, which was a surprise to the oldest inhabitant. Throughout that section the rains have been of incal culable value to the rangemen for this winter, and the most abundant of feed is assured them. The alfil- eria is commencing to grow already and this winter a heavier growth will be available than in the previous season. Mining continues active at several places, and he anticipates a winter of favorable production. As result of the heavy rains the old time stampede of placer miners to the summit of Rich Hill is ready to begin, and it is known that at least twelve different parties are going to ascend the peak to begin sluieing. Several small dams have been built, which with the canals dug to store water, revived interest in the results that are expected to follow washing in this old time gold field that has produced up to date over two millions of dollars, and which never fails to yield handsomely after rains occur. The largest nugget taken from these historical diggings in recent years was last summer after storm when one lucky miner washed out a nugget that was valued at over $326 with other smaller ones.

 II. M. Lewis, constructing engineer of the territorial highway, was in the city yesterday from MaxtOn to make an examination of the grade on Mt Vernon avenue, and states that in about one week more the work will be finished. The county grading ma chine is being used, and with the ditehing of the roadway and the cap ping of deeomposed granite, this end of the highway will soon be in first class condition.
 Speaking of the progress of work on the Maxton section, MT. Lewis states that the 6OOO feet of the eoun- ty road has been regarded, and is ma terially improved. At the turn where a large granite dyke protrudes, this impeachment on the new grade has been blown away, blocking the eoun- ty road for over 1000 feet. In eonse- quence travel has been detoured by the Senator mill until the obstruction is removed which will be in about two weeks more. To accommodate freight teams on this new route which is steep at places, Contractor Tren- berth will have a team to assist any who will require help.
 The new road from the end of the completed highway to the Hassayampa river will be opened by November 15, which will make a total of over thir- teen miles of the grade that is in first class condition out of this city to the south. The work on Senator Hill is progressing satisfactorily, while the special crew of Italian rock men at the crossing of the Hassay- ampa will finish that work by the middle of November, when bridge building will be started. This strip has been the heaviest on the line and good progress has been made by these workmen.
 Yesterday a force of fifteen men was started down Crook Canyon from the summit to clear the right of way of all timber and underbrush as far as the Venezia mine.
