White Slayer

s. H. Ramsey, transient barber, was arrested this week and will be given hearing next Monday on the charge of placing girl in a house of i'll fame. The girl, who is beautiful, budding young woman 17 years of age, came here recently and has been employed in local restaurants for several weeks. Ramsey in- duced her to live with him and then neglected to provide her with the means of subsistence. He induced her to enter a house of ill fame, from which she was taken by Marshal Levy Sunday morning. The case against Ramsey appears to be strong one, and it is probable that he will be bound over to appear in United States court, with the likelihood of being severely pun ished, in accordance with the heinousness of his crime.

Arizona Vs. New Mexico

According to the figures of the Santa Fe New Mexican, the op- erations of the new state govern ment of Arizona will cost more than that of the state of New Mexico. The Arizonans (demo- crats) made salaries small but the jobs numerous; the New Mexicans made the salaries rea- sonable but the number of offices smaller.
 Arizona's 54 legislators are to be paid 5000 more than New Mexico's. Arizona's judiciary will cost $10,0O0 more than New Mexico's. The Arizona conati- tuition provides for a total ex- penditure for salaries of $1O3,- 68O, while New Mexico's salaries will add up to $99,9 900. However, Arizona's constitution makes no provision for land commission CT, and that official will have to be provided for by the state legislature.
 Compared with Arizona New Mexico is a model of economy, says the New Mexican. Here is the comparison. It is striking one:
 New Mexico Legislatnre-24 senators and 49 representatives at s5 per day, S365. For 66 day session, $21, 900.
 Arizona Legislature-19 sena- tors and 35 representatives at S7 per day, S378. For 50 day ses- sion, $22,68O.
 Sixty day legislative sessions are provided by both constitu tionS.
 New Mexico Judiciary-Three supreme court judges at $G000 per annum, S18,0O0; eight dis trict court judges at $4, 300 per annum. S36. Goo: total. S54 900.
 Arizona Judiciary-Three su- rreme court judges at S5O0O per annum, $15,O0O; five superior court judges at $40O0 per annum, S20,OO0; one superior court judge at $3, 300 per annum; eight supe- rior court judges at $500O per annum, $24,0 900; total, $62,5 800.
 Arizona has provided one judge for each county and the constitution fixes the salary as based on population. Provision is also made that in counties having over 45,O00 population additional judges may be elected

Who Are Entitled to Vote

Many inquires have been made whether residents of the territo- ry who have lived here for the year next preceding the date of the election for the ratification or rejection of the constitution will be permitted to vote at that election. Unfortunately 1t is held that such persons will not have that privilege.
 The qualifications required for an elector who shall be entitled to vote at the ratification election under the election ordinance are
 1. His name must be on the Great Register of the county in which he seeks to vote.
 2. He must be @ male citizen of the United States and must be 21 years of age.
 3. He must have resided with in the territory at least twelve months next preceding the date of the election of delegates to the constitutional convention.
 4. He must possess in other respects the qualifications of an elector as provided by the re- vised statutes of Arizona.

Kansas Reform Lays

Many states haue reform laws; these laws or regulations are sometimes enforced and some times not. In Kansas the regu- latlons-now complete-are or derS of the state board of health, with every effect of statute law, and they are all rigidly enforced. No barber in Kansas can use a powder puff on a customers face, or a sponge, or styptic or alum pencil, or a chunk of alum; and no barber can shave a person who has a sore throat. The reg ulations here as elsewhere are very strict concerning steriliza tion of the barber's tools, brvsh es, and his hands. Also, every man who is shaved must be given 8 clean towel. And, un- like New York state and other states where there are similar barber shop regulations, they enforce them in Kansas.
 There are anti-cigarette laws in Kansas, but those are common throughout the country. Kansas passed hers two years ago. She forbids any boy to smoke cigar cites and prohibits the sale or giving away of cigarettes or cigarette papers Tn the state. Cigarette smokers must ship in their cigarettes, just as drinkers must ship in their liquors; but, though it is hard to get liquor in Kansas, owing to the close en- forcement of the prohibition laws, It is not so hard to get cigarettes and cigarette papers if they are wanted.
 The most notable of the recent governmental frills in Kansas is the ban placed on the public drinking cup in trains, schools and railroad stations. As soon as 8 train gets within Kansas every drinking cup is removed from the usual receptacles and and any person wanting a driuk of water must have his individ- ual cup. Train boys make it easy to get cups, ranging in price from ten cents for an ordi- nary tin one to a dollar for an aluminum one in a leather case. It is planned to extend the inhi- bition of the public drinking cup to hotels and other public places

Reform Galore

Reno. New, Jan. 31.-Nevada, the last of the "wild aud woolly vest" is going to reform. Car sen City reports & movement to carry through the legislature measures to bar cigarettes and easy divorces and to give the ballot to women. Divorce law yers are already leaving Reno and seeking new fields. Utah is being sounded for the transfer renee of the divorce industry there. There is no question that the anti-cigarette law will be passed. Half the legislators have declared in favor of woman suffrage. A big lobby, led by
 Miss l.. E. Wier, will start for the capital tomorrow to convert the other half of the legislature.

Statehood in Danger

Like all true, patriotic citizens of Arizona, we want statehood at almost any cost, regardless of any political affiliations or spe cial theories. But by voting for the proposed constitution on February 9 and rolling up big majority for it are we going to secure the approval of the senate and house, to say nothing as to President Taft's opinions? To secure it's passage in both branches of congress we must have almost the unanimous sup, port of the democratic members, for the insurgentrepublican vote that will support the constitution will be very small. Such lead CTS in the senate as Senator Bailey of Texas will not support it. A number other democratic senators are reported as oppos ing. In the house such demo cratic leaders as Henry of Texas, Finley of South Carolina, Lloyd of Missouri, and others will op pose it's adoption in it's present form.
 To us, at this time, there ap- pears but one ray of hope for statehood, and that is 10 vote down the present proposed con stitution, thus requiring the del egates to reassemble and remove the objectionable features. With these removed, statehood would be assured. If we ratify the constitution as proposed in its present reform I predict that Arizona will remain 8 territory for years to come.
 This is @ question worthy the serious consideration of every true, thinking voter.

Decrease of DiVOrces

The granting of woman suf- frage was followed by an imme- diate decrease of divorce, though later it slowly increased again. The Denver Post says:
 In 1892 (the year before equal suffrage was granted) the num- Der of divorces granted in Colo rado was 935, of which 282 were secured by husbands. Two years later, after woman suffrage had been adopted, though the popu- lation had increased, the number of divOrces granted had dropped to 597, of which only 182 were secured by husbands; and in 1900, with 8 30 per cent increase in the population of the state, the number of divorces was 133 less than in 1892, and the number secured by husbands was 63 less.
 MT. Barry was quoted as say ing that drunkenness among women was on the increase in Denver. The Denver Post says the records of the police depart ment show that 1173 women were arrested in 1891 and only 1174 in 1910, though during that time the city had doubled in size "a proportionate decrease of 50 per cent.
 These figures do not look as if the ballot were demoralizing to women.

Fortify the Canal

The question of whether the Panama canal shall be fortified is daily becoming more interest ing. President Taft has en- phatically stated that he will in- sist on appropriations and legis- lation for this purpose, and on the other hand there is strong sentiment of opposition among members of congress. General Keller, a congressman from Ohio, participated in a vigorous attack a few days ago, on the floor of the house. His principal oppo- nent, favoring notifications, was Representative Hobson of Ala bama, who was the hero Of the Merrimac incident of the Span ish-American war.

Plans Railroad Along
 the Colorado River

The following is taken from the Los Angeles Herald:
 To open territory that prom ises as much as the Imperial valley, with not so much to con- tend against, Paul Mohr, a rail roSd builder of the North Pacific coast and a pioneer in develop ment work of the northwest, is making Los Angeles his head quarters while he looks over the ground. Mir. Mohr expects to build 8 railroad to connect with the Santa Fe that will open the Palo Verde and Chuckawalla valleys.
 This territory is being devel- oped rapidly and is said to have better cotton, fruit and alfalfa land than the Imperial valley. It stretches along the Colorado river, but unlike the Imperial valley, it is higher than the river so there is not the menace of overflow that is felt in the Impe- rial country.
 Water from the river Is to be used for irrigation purposes when the great Chuckawalla dam is completed. As it is now, pumping plants are being in stalled along the river and these are distributing water over the land.
 In addition to it's value for ag- ricultural purposes, the noun. tains of the country are rich in minerals, especially gold, and the railroad promoters figure that this will be a prolific source of freight.
 MT. Mohr believes that there is now enough business in this country to justify the construc- tion of a railroad and thinks that it will increase in large leaps after the railroad is completed.
 His proposed plan would inter- sect both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific and touch ter ritory miles from either of these railroads.
 Calzona is the principal town in this district and the line would run through that place from the Colorado river to the Gulf Of California. Mr. Mohr sees pos. abilities of great seaport al the head Of the gulf in the near future.
 The country seems to be par. ticularly inviting from 8 con. struction point of view, accord ing to Mir. Mohr, as it presents 6 practically level grade all the way without the necessity ot tunnels or climbing mountains, and the veteran builder is cer tain of success.

Statehood

There is not a man in Arizona who does not know that state hood has never yet failed to bring in it's wake flood of mil lions of investment capital and big influx of population. Cap ital and population are the two prime essentials demanded by Arizona to bring a multiplication of the bonanza days of 1906 and 1907. Statehood will surely bring the great blessing. State hood has been the one and only issue in Arizona. since the elec- Zion of Cameron in 1908. It is the only issue. before you on Fe5rnary 9. If you vote for the constitution and force it up to the President to disapprove, you simply fly in the face of the in- evitable and kill the enabling act. By voting the constitution down you vote to reassemble the convention with instructions to strike out the re- call of the judiciary and make the constitution so acceptable that statehood will be secured.

NOTE
THEN BEAT
It AWAY

Jones is alive.
This is the latest word in the
Jones-Finley family mix-up.
The man who made the specta-
cular effort to make everyone
think he had committed suicide,
by leaving most of his clothes on
the Eureka dock with a suicide
note, is In Seattle.
The police have learned that he
has written again to his wife seek
ing a reconciliation.
1t Is probable now that Jones
may be allowed to return to Ia
coma, as the police fear they can
not hold him for attempting sui
eide.
Didn't Try Suicide.
AS far as they know Jones did
not even get wet. He simply left
his clothes and the note on the
dock and skipped out to Seattle
on the Flyer.
That Jones only escaped arrest
before when he returned last Sat
urday with Mrs. Finley also de-
veloped this morning.
1t was Mrs. Finley who saved
him then. When she met her hus-
band she convinced him that there
had been nothing wrong between
herself and Jones and Finley re-
fused to take further steps against
the man who had taken his wife
away.
Back In March, expecting that
Jones would come back, Finley
went to Justice Graham and got
a warrant for his arrest.
Sheriff Longmire and his men
took the warrant and waited for
Jone7. Finley said he thought he
could get him to come back.
They came back-Mrs. Finley
and Jones, but Finley forgave
them both and didn't tell the
sheriff that his man was back.

STEEL KING WANTS us.
TO run STEEL TRUST
Men of Underworld Turn Against
Wappy, He Drove Them Too Hard
MAN WHO PAID MONEY TES-
TIFIES AGAINST FALLEN
CHIEF.

SEATTLE, June 2.-Clarence
Gerald has come through.
This is the talk of downtown
Seattle today, following the sem
sational testimony of the cafe
man and advisor of ex-Mayor Gill,
who testified yesterday that Wap-
penstein had been paid from 5000
to $500 a month to let two resorts
run during his administration.
With the testimony of Gerald,
the prosecution is jubilant today.
His evidence will open the way for
Others to come through and con-
fess, Prosecutor Murphy believes.
Wappenstein drove everyone
too hard, is the comment of the
underworld. He was too greedy;
he wanted too much. He broke the
men who worked with him. They
owed him no protection, for he did
not give them a fair deal. With
Wappy in power, their mouths
were closed. With Wappenstein
powerless to punish them, they
" ere ready to strike back.
Gerald told on the stand that
he was not promised imun-
ity. 1t is currently believed, how
ever, that he had to choose be-
tween telling of his deal with the
ex-chief and facing prison himself.
Every Man For Self.
The old Wappenstein ship had
sunk. 1t was a case of every man
for himself.
Gerald gave vivid picture of
what happened when the Gill adj
ministration took office. He saw
the chief shortly afterward.
II understand they're going to
open up," Gerald said.
YES" said Wappy.
"Then there'll be a chance for
someone to make some money"
"There'll be chance for every
body to make money" he says the
chief told him. Shortly after
wards there was a conference over
terms. The chief was to get $40
"a month for each girl in the re-
sorts.
