 As the matter now stands there is no way in which it can be claimed tha- fiftv-one per cent of the property own CTS have petitiOned for the Hassam. In the original paving petition 4Sz4. lineal feet on North First avenue, 560 on Me kinlev street and 570 feet on Fillmore were represented. In the "Hassam' petition originally 2637 feet Were repre- sented all from First avenue and many among them those who had already pc titfoned for bitulithis. This is not fifty-one per cent of the total repre- sented in the first petition and with titioned for bftulithic This is not fifty-one per cent of those residing on North First avenue. However, m a spirit of fairness, the council decided to again refer the matter to the com- mittee of the whole.
 With relation to the project to aban- don the proposed storm sewer iIong First avenue. City Engineer HoIm1aist presented figures showing the grades and demonstrated that such sewer was an absolute necessity and that the gutters would not carry off storm wa ter unless there were storm sewer drops at various points along that thoroughfare. He also argued for storm sewers wherever it seemed they would sometime be needed and suggested that it would be a money saving proposition if they were laid concurrently or pre- vious to the laying of pavements there by removing the necessity of tearing up pavements to permit their intalla- tiCn.
 w K. James, in behalf of the road district in which Mcdowell road east of Third street Is embraced asked that plans and specifications for the joint paving of that thOroughfare by the city and road district be approved The specifications were approved and the city engineer instructed to meet jointly with the trustees of the road district and then draft plans providing for the curbing usually laid in the city work and to eliminate such curbing on the north side which is outside the city. Such plans it was said last evening would be satisfactory to all concerned.

 RACES SET
For September F - Track Promised Gratis by Fair Commission for Practice Meet Preliminary to San Diego-to-PhoeniX Race

Searching about for something real good and effective as a preliminary to the San Diego to Phoenix motorcycle race just before Fair week, the local chugbike club has been and gone and fixed a series of real and novelty races for the afternoon of September F. And furthermore the committee which was appointed a day or so ago to do the arranging has reported complete sue cess.
 The fair commission in the person of the genial and ever Watchful C. E. Wood, fell for the motorcycle races like a shot. Sure, sure take the old park. Use her all you want to. We'll scrape the track and fix it all up the day before so you can have bit of practice"
 And so it was all arranged.
 The reason for this preliminary race is something like this. It turned out by chance that the two wheelers of San Diego hankered after a chance to do some racing over the course of the Los Angeles to Phoenix auto race They figured on about one thousand dollars as the necessary figure to swing the deal, ponied up half of it and put the proposition right smack up to the PhOe- ncians, who had recently organized The P. NJ C., headed by it's president, J. l.. McNeW immediately took up the matter with the merchants of the city and resolved to lift the needful Tn" race meet of two weeks from tomorrow afternoon was the result. Practice and coin racing are its two primary ob- iects. A start for the five hundred to- ward the fund will be all that is nee cssary, and then the club will dig in and perform the rest
 The program of races will be varied md interesting, even to the blase old attenders of such meets. All it's pecu- liar features are not yet divulged. But ir addition to the regular straight-way competitions there will be slow races. spud races. tandems free engine races and freaks without number.
 Speaking of the situation, a member of the committee said yesterday: We gre better fixed for this race than for any previous Formerly the club was
 in the hands of the younger fellows, who were well intentioned enough but lacked sadly that old head that makes things run smoothly. Now the entire conduct of affairs is in the hands of men, who take a large interest in the various lines of club activity. and We can expect more concerted action. The public can look for real exhibition, fer the races will be so numerous and so varied that q great many can enter without revamping their machines-a thing that ordinarily keeps the entry lis.s low. The races will be more than ordinarily fast for this time the track will be hard and smooth. l recollect the last race, the surface had been left ass it was when the horses quit. and We simply couldn't speed. The mile record for twins of 1:04 will probably be greatly reduced. and that for singles will surely be dropped below 1:07, where it now stands. Prescott, where all the machines are fast and powerful will probably contribute number of speedy riders

ID BE HASSAM
 OR N0T HASSAM
That is the Question Some body Has Got to Decide With Reference to Paving North First Avenue and Council is Considering

The common council in special ses- sion last evening listened to an at tempt on the part of w A Parish and i w. $. Humbert to impress that body with the advisabiIity of adopting Has sam pavement for North First avenue and the abandonment of the project to construct a storm sewer along that thoroughfare. Then the city fathers heard City Engineer HOlmquist present some facts that neither MT. Parish or MT. Humbert seemed able to cOntroVert, particularly with reference to the ne cessity for the proposed storm sewer and the impractability of employing the Hassam patent in the work pro posed on North First avenue.
 Just as an incident to the proceed ings, E. P. Conway, of the Warren Brothers company, owners of the Bi- tulithic patent, petitioned for previ- ously on North First avenue, brought out some interesting facts and figures from the former home town of MT Humbert, where Hassam pavement has been laid. According to Mir Conway the pavement in that city cost all the way from $1.95 to $2.75, whereas the bitulithic pavement suggested for the residence streets of Phoenix should not . more desirable pavement result.
 It was no love feast. There was a surprising return from the city en- gineer after Messrs Parish and Hum bert had had their say. Before it was all oNer MT HOlmquist seemed to have scored~decisiVely. And then to cap the climax property owners representing 422 lineal feet of pavement along North First avenue presented a petition ask ing that their names be withdrawn from the other petition asking the adoption of the Hassam system. w.

WHO SUPPORTS YOU?
(By Josephine Conger Kaneko)

(By Josephine Conger Kaneko)
1t has been the general belief
throughout ages that the employer
supported the workingman. That
idea is changing somewhat, and it is
even put forward at times that the
workingman supports the employer,
by doing all of his labor and making
a big profit for him out of his busi-
ness. Yet the employe continues to
work for the employer, and to accept
a minimum wage for his labor.
Now comes up the question, Does
a man support his wife? She has al
ways stood in the category Of depend
ent upon him. The law has placed
her along with the minors Of the fam.
lily. But suppose a woman gives up
a $40 job to marry a man who is
making SIS She doesn't stop work
ing; she merely changes places Of EN-
ployment and drops her salary. She
washes. scrubs. sews, bakes, nurses
and trains the children Is her hus
band supporting her?
Suppose children are born sag
five. The mother takes the usua
care of them for a time then dies
What. then. is the fate Of the fatheI
and children AS "a rule he must gel
another wife. or send his children t'
au institution Iu This case has rh0
father been supporting the children
The Commonwealth. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1911-1914, 1913-07-10

If so, why doesn't he continue it after
his wife dies?
These are questions that can lead
to but one issue: The married wom-
an, doing the bulk of domestic labor
for society gratis, is the strongest bull
wark to the present system, the factor
that helps most to pile up the riches
in the hand of the capitalist employer.
She is, indeed, one-half Of great
class, whose toll costs the employer
absolutely nothing Her husband re-
ceives the same amount after he mar
ries her as he received before. He
receives no more because children
come. All Of which means that the
married woman must look after her
own. her husbands and her children's
welfare. without the expenditure Of
an extra dollar on the part Of the EN-
ployer. or the state II is only when
the married woman falls by the way
side that the state steps in, too often
TO bungle. rather than 70 perfect the
work she has done.
IT. is shown by statistics that there
Is one divorce 10 every twelve mar
riages in the United States. This
ratio win increase. and no marriage
and divorce commission can retard
IT,. SO long as the married woman Of
the working class must stand as the
unpaid drudge OF the wage salve and
the capitalist draws h.s millions In
profits out of their debasement

OUR COMRADE AND BROTHER.
By Henry M. Tichenor


He was a vagabond, poor and low,
Among the hills where the olives grow,
With the waters of the Galilee below,
Our Comrade and our Brother.
He told the Truth, the Life, the Way;
He Stunned the respectable of his day
He chose the harots rather than they
0 where was such another?
Love was the only path he blazed;
Love was the only flag he raised;
Our Comrade and our Brother
And he had nowhere to lay his head
He was numbered among the outcast dead;
And yet his burden was light, he said
Never was such another.
We stand where the Ancient Lowly fell,
Voicing the same old rebel yell
Well fight our way through earth and hell
Grasping the Comrade hand,
Till all the powers of a masters world
Down to the bottomess pit are hurled,
And the blood-red banner of LOVE unfurled
Floats over every land.
