John T. Hughes and Other Sem atOrs Protest Against Bill. De

PHOENIX; June Estate Sena- tor J. T. Hughes filed the following protest against the passage of the Worsley bill abolishing the senate, which was entered on the senate journal today:
 We protest against the passage of Senate Bill No 54 for the following reasons:
 ''1. It appears to us that it's intro duction and consideration in this body is unseemly. @
 'I2. That having accepted the com mission of the people to sit in this body. and exercise it's constitrl- tional duties, we cannot justify the from within to abolish the body without feeling an admission that our labors have been useless in the state. This we cannot admit.
 "3. That there appears to be no public demand for such radical change in the form of our state gov ernmept. ....
 "A. That, we believe in the system of checks and balances of legislative procedure as the constitution now pro- vides and which accords with the plan of federal government and every state in the Union.
 5. Because it is revolutionary and undemocratic.''

(. [. MILLS WILL BE GENERAL MANAGER
 AT INSPIRATION
Will Direct the Expenditure of ST. 100000 fo rRis Copper Go. In
 Globe District.

c. E. Mills, General Superintendent and Manager of the Detroit Copper Co.,, at Morenci, in this county, has accepted position as General Manag- CT of the Inspiration Copper Co, at Globe, and will leave shortly after
 July 1 to assume his new duties. The Inspiration Co. is one of the , strongest copper cmpanies in Arizona today. Multi-millionaires are includ- ed in the directorate of the company and it is proposed to spend approxi- mately $7,000,O00 in the immediate fu- ture in the erection of a reduction plant and in the working and develop ment of the mines of the company which embrace a large area of the Globe district.
 The announcement came from Globe this week. When Mr. Mills was asked for a. confirmation of the story from Globe, he replied: Its little early to do much talking yet" From a perfectly reliable source the Era has confirmed the report. When MT. Mills leaves Morenci to assume his new duties at Globe he will be sue ceeded at Morenci by MT A. T. Thom- son, of Clifton, who has been Cashier of the A. c. Co.,, and Traffic Mana ger of the A. & N. M. Ky. His resig- nation was announced in the Era last week.
 w. A Aldridge, General Manager of all the Gunn-Thompson properties and mining interests at Globe, who has been representing the controlling in terests in Inspiration Consolidated since the merger of the Inspiration and Live Oak, and who has been the mov- ing spirit in initiating the vast pro- gram of construction and development, will after July 1 make his headquar- ters in New York City and devote his full time to the management of the Gunn-Thompson interests.
 MT. Mills is a we'll konwn operator of many years experience and has made the Detroit Copper mines at Morenci the successful dividend-paying property that it is today. The mines at Morenci, while not generally refer red to as such, are Tn reality the first of the so-called low grade ''porphy- ries' to be developed and worked on this continent and the success of MT Mills in this district augurs well for the future of the Inspiration Consolid- ated.
 It is understood that MT. Mills will still have general supervision of the mining operations of the D. c. Co. at Morenci as well as the Phelps-Dodge operations in the Burro Mountain dis trict in New Mexico.

The Republicad National Conven- ton convened in Chicago on Tuesday at noon when Chairman Rosewater of the National Committee called the convention to order. Never before in the history of the republican party has there been so much strife and bitterness manifested upon the eve of a convention to nominate a preS1- dent
 For a week prior to the meeting of the convention the National Commit tee had been in session hearing the cases of contested delegates from al- most every state in the union. The hearing of the contests before the committee was marked by much i'll feeling between the followers of Roosevelt and the followers of Taft. Approximately 270 delegates had been contested and charges of fraud, cor ruption, and Strong-arm tactics were made on both sides It was soon ap- parent that the majority of the con tests wiuld be decided in favor of the Taft delegates and when this became known to the Roosevelters they cali ed the Taf committeeman thieves and robbers and were free to declare that if the Taft contested delegates were seated the Roosevelt followers would bolt the republican convention.
 
 the National Committee continued to discharge their duty without a single hitch Out of all the contested dele gates eighteen were decided in favor of Roosevelt delegates. The te1p- porary roll as made up by the com Smittee gave Taft clear majority of the delegates of the convention. A few minutes after the convention was called to order on the first day the
 
 temporary roll as compiled by the Ma tional committee and substitute a Roosevelt list of delegates to the ed and since that time the. Taft dele gates have been in control of the con vention.
 Upon the election of the temporary chairman of the convention, Senator Soot of New York was elected over Gov. McGovern of Wisconsin. Root had majority of eighteen yer all.
 On Wednesday a committee on ere dentials was appointed and since that time has been holding day and night sessions going over the same contests heard before the National committee last week and deciding them in the same way.
 Col Roosevelt is on the ground in person. He arrived there on SatuI- day evening last and has been direct ing his own campaign. On Thurs day night he declared that if the con- vention adopted the report of the committee on credentials, seating the Taft delegates who had been contest ed in California, Arizona, Washington, Kentucky, Indiana and Texas, that he would refuse to abide by the decision and would form third party at the Coliseum immediately after the ad- journm of the regular convention, or would call a new party convention to meet three weeks later after the adjournment of the democratic con- vention at Baltimore.
 It is expected that the nomination Of President Taft will occur late Satur- day night.
