have them arrested on a charge Of
carrying concealed weapons.
John H. Walker, member of the
American Federation of Labor, who
is on the committee in charge of the
strike, has made the direct charge
that the militia had entered homes
and cruelty beaten strikers and their
families and ravished young girls.
This is denied by General Abbey,
in charge of the military, but even
Judge Alfred ]. Murphy, who is in
Calumet representing Governor Fer
ris, admits that he had heard the
same things.
Mr.. Walker, together with Chas.
E. MahOney, vice president of the
Western Federation of Miners, ar
rived in Chicago today to attend con-
ference of the mining board at the
Kaiserhof Hotel.
The following is his own story of
the strike:
On the 23d of July $4,000 men laid
down their tools and came out on
strike.
Previous to this these men had
worked in the copper mines of the
Upper Peninsula of the State of
Michigan. These mines are known
as the Calumet and Hecla Copper
Company, and are owned and con-
trolled by men who have their
home in BrOOklin, suburb of Bos-
ton, Mass.
Some time before coming out on
strike these men had organized and
became members of the Western
Federation of Miners. They had
been working a so-calIed ten-hour
day. In reality they worked more
than an average Of eleven hours per
day underground. Their wages
would not average 1920 per day,
and l have seen their statements NY
self and made a personal investiga-
ton of the matter. Some received as ]
low as q cents for nine shifts work, |

the drilling machine (which weighs.
over two hundred pounds) single.
They had formerly been handled dOU-
BILE; and when a person knows what
it means drilling hard rock, with a
machine of that type, operated by
compressed air, sometimes on a stag
ing up in a stOpe that would try a
squirrel to hang on and keep his
footing amid dangerous roof and
hanging rock, with not one breath Of
air except the exhaust from the ma
chine, the light just a small flicker in
the dark, you can understand why
these men reVOlted.
The men held meetings, decided to
request of their employers recogni-
ton Of their union, an eight-hoUr
working day, minimum wage Of IS
per day for underground men, and a
prOpOrtionate increase for those
working above ground, and that two
men be allowed to work on the ma
chimes as formerly.
They requested a joint conference
with representatives of the company
to, try to come to an agreement on
these questions. Their requests
were met with scoTn and contempt;
the companies representatives re-
fused to consider them, or to even
meet the representatives of the men.
So they decided to strike.
At first the company refused to
take the situation seriously, stating
that the strike would collapse before
the end of a week, that they had
ruled those men for fifty years, that
they had never recognized a union or
treated with their men in that way,
that they had always done as they
pleased, and that they proposed to
continue to do so in the future.
But we are starting on the fourth
week now, and, out of their 70 mines
they have not been able to get one
ton of ore mined, trammed and hoist

The Tax Rate and Other Matters

The state tax rate will probably be tnnounced tomorrow. \ the same time We will know whether the Maricopa county ,ss-a-sment "iI be given 4 horizontal raise.
 1t is understood that the state rate will be 5o cents. against cents year. Those figures standing alone and opposite each other constitute pleasing Spectacle But. unfortunately, they can not be left alone other members of the group will he the S14oooe.ooo ase-sslueut taxable purposes last year and $215ooo.ooo or more this year. That is the assessnent this wear is more than two and a halt times great il was last y'ar The taxes for state purposes last wear amounted [" SI26000O; this year $&15oooGoO assessment, Ut a 5o-cent rate. they would $1,s75,ooo. This increase of taxes of $6I5.ooo would only small part of the additional burden which would fall upon the taxpayers. There will be the county rate which believe in no county. with the poss- hle exception of Cochfse, will be reduced in ratio inversely to the increased assessment The tax payers will get the full meaning of the situation when they meet it in November, and they will ask what is being money.
 As to the Maricora assessments, if the reported purpose the state board is persisted in, the tax payers of this county will be called upon to pay more than their share of the expenses of govern ment on the statement of the county assessor, horizontal raise of assessments would give to many pieces of property valuation in excess If their cash value in excess of price for which they could be sold. and in excess of prices for which adjacent property had been sold since the assess mtnt& We're made.

Thereupou. the valua- tious properly reduced. Now, these properties case of horizontal raise would be brought above a cash valuation.
 We maintain as we have asserted that the farm lands and the city property of Maricopa county are already assessed nearly their actual cash value than other class of property the Any further increase of their yllua- would be act of injustice. which We believe every every property owner in the county would resent.
