A GOOD BOOK

A copy Of Frederick Haskin's book,
The American Government" has
found its way to us through the
courtesy Of the El Paso Herald. and
has been read with much interest.
Frederick Haskin is regular
contributor to the Herald and an
interesting letter from him appears
each day in their columns.
The book gives a clear, concise
and comprehensive review Of the
actual work done by the several
departments Of the Federal Cover
ment of the United States. The
writer's grasp of the subject is
evidenced on every page Of the
thirty chapters. comprising about
400 pages, and the reader who
would be informed on the operations
Of his government will find this pre-
sentati,n a dependable source Of
information.
The bookis full cloth bound and
contains many Interesting photo
graphs, picturing Uncle Sam at
work in his different departments.

This has been especially true of its

The loss and Inconvenience to set
tiers from quarantine against inn
portation into Arizona OF household
goods and live stock from infested
districts would be trivial. This
would be true even if such q quaran-
tine restriction were imposed against
the entire States of Utah, Colorado
and Idaho. While it is true that
the weevi may be brought into Ari
zona alfalfa growing districts and
established at any time in some en-
tirely unforeseen or unpreventable
manner, it is probable that sucll
quarantine as suggested would elm
mate more than nine-tenths of the
danger.
In addition to quarantine meas
ures Arizona should be further pro-
tected by inspections of alfalfa fields,
especially those located near rail-
roads and near cities and towns,
that the weevl in case tbs intro
duced by unpreventable means, may
be discovered and the COLONY ex-
terminated in its beginning.
The efforts that are now being
made to import parasites of the
alfalfa weevil from Europe should
not cause delay in adopting protec-
tive measures as soon as the neces-
sary law can be enacted in Arizona.
Control by natural enemies seems
to offer the best opportunities for a
successful solution of the present
serious problem; but as far as the
danger of its introduction into Ari-
zona is concerned. the pest should
not be disregarded so long as it has
not been reduced to a satisfactory
condition of control in neighboring
States. 1t is at present impossible
to say whether this will ever be ac-
complished.

WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE.

We have received a ccmmunica-
ton from ona Of our readers, call
ing us to account for not publishing
anything regarding woman's suf-
frage. We have noticed articles on
woman's suffrage appearing at diff
Iferent times in our republican ex-
c,ianges. but were not impressed on
reading them, as we know the re-
publicans of Arizona are the last
people in the State to be relied on
as being in favor Of any progressive
measure, or any law favoring rule
by the people. They showed their
enmity to equal rights and other
progressive measures, when their
representatives in the constitutional
convention, obeying the orders Of
their bosses. voted against every
progressive proposition in the con-
stitution.
AS far as we are personally con-
cerned, we are in favor of equal
rights. We believe that women
should have the right of suffrage,
and we understand that the matter
of equal rights is one of the proposi-
tions that will be submitted to the
people for referendum vote.
We might say further that if
there is any doubt in the minds of
any Of our readers as to whether we
believe in equal rights, all they have
to do is to consult our better half
and learn the truth.
We received our first lessons in
equal rights when we fought for
laws in the New York State legisla-
ture in 1884 and 1895. favoring the
betterment Of the conditions under
which women worked in New York
City and we won out, and the reason
we were successful was due to the
fact that we secured enough demo
cratic votes to overcome the rspub-
lican opposition
We believe in democracy and we
also believe that only thru democ-
racy will the women of Arizona
ever be successful in securing equal
suffrage.

valuation is placed at 25 per cent.
This resolution was adopted.
The Birdno resolution is practical
ly the same as that passed at the

since that time, so the resolution
was renewed.
The resolution on the valuation of
railroad property embodied recon-
mndatione to the legislature to fix
the valuation on this class Of prop
erty on the gross income, leaving
the PERCENTAGE to be stipulated by
the legislature. The resolution was
referred to the committee on egisla-

Former Controller Establish

A Hopeless Tangle.

Whether the states accountants can
$21, 900 borrowed from the special
street improvement fund prior to Oct.
1906, and turned into the general city
fund is question that is bothering
the city officials. This sum, with in
terest, now amounts to about $4,000,
and must be paid back to the special
street Improvement fund and bonds,
for this sum, now out, are to be re-
deemed next year, say the city dads.
Inasmuch as the money secured by
taking it from the street improvement
fund and placing it in the general
fund was spent for numerous improve
ments and purposes, it will be a hard
proposition, city officials believe, to
find out just how this money was
spent
Ed Needham, controller the last two
years of Mayor Zimmerman's second
term, established the practice of plac-
ing street improvement monies in a
special street improvement fund, it
was stated today. Bonds issued for
the improvements were to be paid out
of this fund. Before this time, it is
stated, monies paid in by property
owners as shares on street improve
ments, were paid into the general
treasury fund, and reappropriated for
any purposes necessary.
"The practice established by Mr.
Needham was followed the three years
and ten months of the Schillinger ad-
ministration," stated former Control
Ter Webster Parry this morning. 81

ing the street Improvement monies in
the general fund were made prior to

fund instead of the special street i'm

greatly prolonged, and the bill against
the city correspondingly greater, and
it is doubtful if they could ever learn
where all this money went to.
