DRASTIC
LEGISLATION
Is PROPOSED

Phoenix, Ariz, March 1.-THE first
message Of Governor Hunt was read to
A~Tizona's first state legislature yester-
day. 1t was :. voluminous, containing
approximately $4,000 words. AS It's first
legislative act, the governor urged the
enactment for submission to the people
at the next regular election, of an
amendment to the constitution provid-
ing for the recall of judicial officers.
The message called attention to the
fact that Arizona had voted f~avorably
On two occasions to adopt the recall
OF judges and continued: "Their
wishes were set at naught by a pres
idents unwillingness to yield to a
prejudice, but, secure in knowl-
edge with statehood once attained and
the initiative at their command, they
have it in their to restore to the con-
stitution the power so rudely taken
away"
Free text books were advocated and
the legislature asked to consider the
question Of an old age pension for
Arizonians, either men or women.
whose devotion to our territory's
cause through the period of it's great
est trial has failed to provide them
with the mean Of easing the declin-
ing years.
The legislators were also urged to
pass a law requiring each newspaper
in Arizona to publish in every issue
a full n complete list OF it's owners.
stockholders and holders of securities
in whatever form they may exist.
Compulsory compensation for work
men n an employers liability law
along the lines laid down by the con-
stitution, an eight-hour day for all
classes of labor, the abolition of the
employers black list and the creation
OF an arbitration board to settle dis
putes, are among the measures recon-
mended under the head Of labor.

AT che orpheuno.

The bill at the orpheum for the first
half Of the week is another triumph
for Mr.. Webster-s managerial ability
He has secured for the people one OF
the brightest and best balanced offer
ings Of the year, and the applause at
the matinee yesterday afternoon dem
onstrated that the people appreciated
the same.
Klien, OFT & Nicholson are the head
liners in q bright, breezy comedy mu-
steal offering. They are three must
clans of real merit, and the way they
presented their number was very
pleasing TO the audience. They per-
form on various instruments, and Tor
the music lovers the privilege Of hear
ing them is q noteworthy event.
Francis & Lewis, comedy burIesque
strong act, have q new stunt which
is well received.
Goldie Bros, the two dancing de-
mons do not belle their name, and
their steps were truly wonderful.
Mamie williams, singing and instru-
mental has a beautiful voice and her
instrumental numbers were we'll re-
ceived.
The Richards, novelty singers, have
a new song, and this couple are get
ting to be prime favorites in Fargo.
Their original n of putting their
stunt never fails to please.
The pictures were up to the usual
high order, and the entire ~entertain-
ment is . very ENJOYABLE one.

asked for, he wants her and is will
ing to pay such and such a price.
Only the rich can afford to buy them
selves pretty wives, for the price is
sometimes considerable. Besides cam
els. goats, sheep and clothing, a large
sum Of money must also be paid. 1t
often happens that the parents Of the
girl refuse to give her at the price
fixed, or declare that they wish to
keep her longer, or that she is too
young. This may continue until the
young man Is exasperated and will not
be put off any longer. He then forms
q company OF his companions, all
mounted and well armed, while he also

San Francisco, March 19.-One OF
the most affecting scenes ever wit
messed in the city prison took place
when Harry Miller Of San Francisco
entered the cell of Samuel Miller, who
is under the sentence Of death in Ten
nessee for wife murder, and cried out
that the prisoner was his father.
Harry Miller, who is 26 years old
and q tailor in San Francisco, saw d
picture of Samuel Miller in a local
paper. The picture resembled that
of his father, and he crossed the bay
to see the condemned after a nine
years hunt following his escape from
a Tennessee prison.
Miller was taken to the cell. The
prisoner was seated in a corner, with
his head in his hands. On hearing
footsteps he looked UP and stared lit
Jailer ~Jorgenson and the young man
with him, without showing any signs
of recognition. Young Miller peered
into the cell for a moment as if to
make sure. and then exclaimed,
"Father!"
The prisoner rose and approached
the cell door.
"why. it's Harry" he said. ssMy
sol my sonl"
The cell door was opened by Jorgen-
sen, and young Miller walked in and
embraced his father, the two men re-
manning with their arms about each
other FOR several minutes, while tears
streamed down their cheeks.

The new musical comedy, The
Dream Port, which the Juvenile Bos-
toians will present at the Fargo opera
house on next Tuesday evening, is un-
doubtedly the best vehicle with which
this favorite company has yet been
supplied. II fairly sparkles with ex-
cellent comedy, catchy music and pref
ty girls, while the principal parts are
in the hands OF delightful little sing
ers and artists. The scenic equipment
this year Is far superior to that usually
carried by musical comedy companies.
The songs introduced are all new and
are all of the bright catchy order;
songs that you will whistle and sing
for months.
