WAGE CONDITIONS
 ARE INVESTIGATED
NEW YORK WORKERS RECEIVE AS LOW AS s2.65 WEEKLY IN
 TEXTILE MILLS.
Living Conditions of Mill Workers Are Abount as Bad as Could
 Possibly Be.

Albany, N. r., March 19.-The re port of the state labor department on it's investigations of conditions among the Little Falls Textile Work ers-brought to public attention by the recent strike-was made public today.
 certainly it is a matter of grave public concern the report says, when a considerable body of wage earners are found in such living con ditions as are revealed by this re- port. T1ere is reason to suppose that more or less similar conditions are to be found elsewhere.
 The investigators state that prior to the strike, half of the men work CTS received a weekly wage of $9 or less. while half of the women re. eeiyed less than $2.50 In the sessse- ment of the strike, the report adds made but little if any, change from conditions as to wages"
 Monthly rents for the space occu- pied by single family and group ran S6 to SIS.
 Of the living conditions the report says:
 .'rhe houses are frame structures built single or in groups. Bath rooms | are entirely absent. Leaky roofs make d@ rooms impossible. Venti- lation is always bad Cellars were
 found filled with water, ashes, waste, garbage and manure.
 Sleeping rooms are small espe- cially when the number of occupants
 which they accommodate is consider ! ed. Some are windowiess. Over- crowding is the rule. Owing to ig norance Of the need of fresh air in 8 l sleepng room, windows are kept constantly closed even the cracks be ing filled or covered The air of the 1 sleeping rooms is charged with odors from the kitchen, the wash tub, the garbage heap and the cellar, and il this condition Is breathed again ant again by the sleepers.
 1 In each household one room serves as a kitchen while others are sleep 1 ing rooms. The kitchen is also din ing room, living room, wash room. laundry and in some cases a sleep ing room.
 sThe head Of the household i! not simply the head of family, mol even in the usual meaning of thu term, a boarding house keeper. Sht
 -for the housewife is the real heaf --is rather the financial agent of ths members of ther household, herself and her immediate family forming
 only part of such an organization
 -The term of family Is little usef in this report. This is intentional Family privacy is thing unknown
 to the textile workers. This cannot
 be credited to low moral standard for physicians testify to relatively high standard of morals.

 All Greece mourns the death of a sovereign who had done so much particularly during the past year, to advance the prestige of the nation Emblems of sorrow are displayed of dtl SiuCc anu lH0uiACpAatiOtlc IOA i6AAti are even more marked among the poor and lowly than among those ol the higher. classes.

 He stopped for few days at Volo Thessaly, where he delivered harran gues in which he declared that in . short time he would succeed in estab fishing equality that there would be no longer either rich CT poor and thai
 work which was now accomplished
 in one hour would be spread out over two.
 Interrogated as to why he-assassin ated the king. Schinas replied "I had to die some how, as suffer from neurasthenia and therefore wish ed to redeem my life" He appears to have led n wretelled existence, subsisting almost entirel, on milk. His family has long ceased to acknowledge him. Schinas for time was an instruc tor In the medical department of the University of Athens. He refuses tc give any explanation for the crime beyond the fact that two years age he applied for assistance at the palace

In d final attempt to bring the dis pute between the Utah lrrigating Canal company and the '. $. R. s. to a head. Water Commissioner Harry l.. Hancock will shortly issue an order so one sided that it will cause an in stant appeal of the case to the su- perior court hv the party not favored
 Nainlv trying to get the contestants to settle the fight by arbitration, Hancock yesterday proposed that without any more talk you come in and put up a proposition to let the government carry water for you to the old headgate in the Consolidated. r. as you claim, you own an easement iu the Consolidated, you should be willing to put up a share of the cost of maintaining the ditch. and think that is all the reclamation service has eyer tried to charge you" Attorney Dougher,y submitted for the U. l.

 company letter agreeing to lower the height of the structure proposed for the WasteWay two feet and to put in gasoline engines to raise the gates in time of emergency. The wa ter commissioner assured the Utah attorney ana ntinbtIS 'l tue p'dl VI of directors that on no account would ne allow the reclamation service to turn water out at Granite reef dam.
 After listening to the arguments of Attorney Dougherty and Engineers Fitch and Reed. Commissioner Han cock dAcided to take the questioning into his own hands and direct the in Quiry personally He brushed aside al the eyasions of one side and the statciaents of the other and asked to nave the original question of whether or not the Utah land owners have d carrying right in the Consolidated canal settled forthwith. He asked why the Utah company claimed q carrying right in the canal but re- fused to pay for it's upkeep. He asked DOugherty if he denied the right of the government to ask pay ment and Dougherty answered the government had denied his people right unless they paid Which brought the matter to it's beginning Finally the attorney said that his proofs of an easement in the canal would be disclosed at due time and place, and Hancock becoming rather weary of the hearing declared he would issue an orGe1 so drastic that the Utah

WASTE OF MONEY
 ON SCHOOL SUPPLIES
pr. Wilde of the University Gave
 Warning Against it Year ago.

The following letter has been re- ceived by pr. A. H. Wilde of the uni yersity in reference to waste of school money for supplies against which Su- perintendent Hotchkiss of Cochise county has been warning the trustees of his county.
 Tucson, Arizona, aMrch 4, 1913 To the Editor of The Republican.
 l was interested as you were in the circular letter sent by County Superin- tendent Hotchkiss of Cochise to the school trustees in his county notifying them of the losses they had sustained by purchasing school supplies of any solicitor that came along. I have writ ten MT. Hotchkiss inviting him not only to attend the conference of school officials in university week, April Sth and 9th, but have asked him to speak briefly upon the subject of the pur- chase of school supplies.
 You may be interested in the follow ing statement for the columns of the Republican. Last year I proposed to the conference of school officials that the university collect data from vari- ous city and county school superinten-

company or the reclamation service could not but appeal the case to the superior judge
 MT. Hancock said he believed a structure can be built in the waste way tfat will not interfere with the regular flow of waste water He thought possibly by lowering the canal lev el bit and adding gas engines 10 raise the gates very rapidly in case oI emergency, the wing dam womb stand and could be built without ob- 5truCting the wasteway
 For the Utah Irrigating Ditch com pany Dougherty could only say he dema1ded right of water carriage in the Consolidated canal. that the nrjce of 20 cents an acre feet asked by me reclamation service was inOrdin ate. that he had submitted his pro- position to build dam in the waste way which would meet all the oh Jection~ so far advanced bv the gov ernment. Engineer Fitch said inc government would not conCede inc Utah company a right in the Con solidated. that 20 cents an acre foot is much cheaper than any other wa ter user pays, that the service wonld not permit structure in the right of way of the waste ditch any more than it would a head gate in the Consolidated unless paid for. He will present in writing his answer to the proposition about the lowered strllc- ture and the motor equipment this afternoon. and Hancock's order will be entered probably the day after II now only remains to time to show which of the disputants will have to appeal the case to the court.

The settlers are new to local cOndi- be saddled with land payments, water right taxes and power assessments. With the addition of q tax uf S2.50 more an acre. which q division will cost. it can be readily seen that our people have about all the taxes they can stand at the present time.
 We are trying to build up an agri- cultural empire in the Salt River valley and it would be the height of folly to discourage newcomers by inn posing high taxes when it is entirely unnecessary. Mesa wants to be the county seat of the new county, and that is about the only reason why that town is agitating division, which she has been doing for the last four years.
 '"One Of her claims is that the Mesa section is settled by substantial farmers who need a nearer county seat to transact their business. Our farmers may not have as much mon ey as our Mesa neighbors, but we do have the required amount of pluck and energy that is needed to build a new country. and above all We have that God given right of citizen ship, which should carry with it the power to vote on such things as taxation and county division"

dents also of high school principals to ascertain what prices were paid for school supplies and to collect also sam ples of the goods to be purchased. The conference unanimously approved of the proposition. and little later wrote circular letters to the school of ticials asking for the data but so few officials found time to answer the let ter that the information secured was not large enough to be of general in terest and importance; but during the past year l have been convinced that our school officials need such informa- tion and il is The purpose of the uni verSity to undertake the matter again and perhaps under the impulse furn- ished by MT. Hotchkiss's work We will have little better success in securing information
 In this connection I will say it was the purpose of the university to col lect not only data and prices regarding school supplies but also all kinds of da- ta affecting the educational interests of the state. plans of school buildings suited to this climate: reputable addi- tions in school apparatus and equip ment; the most economical methods of purchasing school supplies and appar- atus: in fact. anything that would make for the betterment of the schools of the state and that would assist trus- tees in projecting school buildings or in adding to their equipment to have ready access to reliable information. Then if the school trustees found them selves face to face with important problems of school administration they could write to the university and se-

CHANDLER WANTS
 NO NEW COUNTY
s. A. Meyer, Of Arizonan, Voices
 Sentiment in That Vicinity

The Chandler district is opposed body and soul to any division of Maricopa county at this time. and the fact that Representative Daniel Jones is willing to make concessions 10 Tempe and the Southern Pacific at the expense of less thickly set tied parts of the county. does not set very well with us
 Thus spoke s. A. Meyer. editor of the Chandler Arizonan, in the course of an interview here last evening. MT. Meyer says that the entire Chandler district is fighting division. because of the hardships it will i'm pose on new settlers who have come into the valley within the last six months. Continuing, he said:
 Our country, including Gilbert. Higley. Kyrene, and other small surrounding towns. is in its infancy.
