PHOENIX, Ariz., March a. -
1t was not a great many days ago
that Representatives Kerr of Yuma
county and Representative Lynch of
Graham county had such a dispute
that their friends interfered with
the suggestion that the cause of
their remarks be forgotten and that
the argument end. Last session
there was the Walter Brawner, ser
geant-at-arms, and Ed. Shaw, a
prominent state politician, incident,
in which one went to the mat.
Thursday there came as near being
a real mix as even a sporting en-
thusiast could wish for, although
it ended without blows. Conse-
quently, it seems likely that the
first State Legislature is entitled to
be dubbed the Fighting First"
The incident occurred in the
House during a debate on the
Jacobs bill creating a new Board
of Control. Representative Graham
of Cochise county opened the de-
bate in opposition to the measure,
by declaring that the bill raised
the salary of the Attorney Gen
eral, and in hi. judgment the bill
looked to him to be vehicle franz
ed for that purpose. Representative
Saxon followed Graham with re-
marks questioning the constitution
atty Of the proposed law.
1t was at this point that Repre-
sentative Jacobs interrupted with
remarks to the general effect that
the constitution could not mean a
great deal to the gentleman from
Santa Cruz (Mr. Saxon), consider
ing that gentleman's oversight Of
the provision in the constitution
that any person holding a position
of trust or profit under the State
government shall not be entitled to
serve as a legislator. Saxon, il
will be recalled, served the State
after the adjournment of the sec
ond session of this Legislature as a
cattle inspector in his district.
No sooner had Jacobs uttered
his remarks than Saxon addressed

STING TAKEN OUT
THE BLACK LIST MEASURE

PHOENIX, Mar. 13-After much
talk and argument the Senate has
finally passed and sent to the House
a black list law which labor leaders
here at the capital say is as weak
as can possibly be drawn, and
which will either be amended in
the House or killed. The measure
is not in the form originally intro
duced by Senator Cunniff but it
had his approval when it was finally
acted upon by the Senate. Worsley
of Pima county who had a black
list bill he had prepared defeated
in the Senate voted for the bill
which was adopted but he declar-
ed he did not approve of the bill
on account of its weakness.
The measure as now before the
House and as it passed the Senate
is as follows:
Section /. 1t Shall be unlawful
lOI diiy ShlplOgSiy "AStiSi ihNi'ANN
al, firm, association, or corporation
to require of any persons securing
employment Herewith or employed
thereby, as condition of such en-
ployment, any oral, written, or
printed statement requesting or au-
thorizing any individual, firm, asso-
citation, or corporation to furnish In
formation regarding such persons.
Section 2. This act shall be cumu
lative of Chapter 81 of the session
laws of the regular session of th'
First State Legislature; and, any
individual, firm, association, or cor
poration violating any OF the pro
visions of this act shall be liable il
punitive damages, and to punish

HAVING HARD TIME
TO GET ADMITTED
Rrom Fridays pailyl

Pete Linquist, a subject of the
Gar of Russia, in the Superior
Court yesterday asked for final cit
izenship papers to be issued him
after a continuous residence of over
nve years in the United States, but
his application was deferred on ac-
count of developments which arose
and which are out of the ordinary
in naturalization channels.
He arrived in New York city in
1907, and was an employee of the
ship which brought him over. Go
ing on land, he appreciated the
freedom of being under "Old Glory"
and went to New Jersey to visit
with friends, and incidentally to
go to work He forgot to return
to the ship lying in the harbor. al
though he was very much wanted
on account of his industry and his
capacity in filling the job so salts
factorily to the master. In due time
he took out his first papers in that
State, and shortly afterward drifted
West, reaching Jerome over two
and one-third years ago, when he
went to work for the United Verde
Copper Company.
In asking for his final papers yes
terday Mr.. Linquist faced diff
cult problem in disclosing his iden-
tity. The rigid rules of the service
require that the applicant must fur
nish certificate of landing on Am
erican soil. He had applied for the
same from the Department of Com
merce and Labor, and has been in
formed that the examination of the
manifest of the ship which he speci-
fed fails to show his name. This
exaction, Linquist states, is due to
the fact that he was an employee of
the ship, consequently his name IS
not available as landing, and that
he was not a passenger.
Judge Smith and Clerk Farley of
the Superior Court are taking very
much interest in this particular
case, as the applicant is not only
infatuated with the country of his
adoption, but he is of more than
ordinary intelligence and is well
educated also. Mr.. Linquist will
continue his jealous efforts to be
admitted to citizenship, and if he
fails he says will stay in the United
States, and under no circumstan ses
will he. ever return to the realm of
the present car of Russia. Samuel
Davis, of Jerome, accompanied him
to the city, and vouched for the
good name of the applicant.

GUGGENHEIMS TO TAKE
OVER THE COPPER CHIEF
(From Fridays Daily.)

That the great Copper Chief min
es, situated about four miles to the
south of Jerome, are to be operated
on a large plan by the American
Smelling and Refining Company,
was the statement made yesterday
from authoritative sources, and it is
expected that inside of two months
active development will be under
Roadway.
Leading up to negotiations being
absolutely closed, the recent exami-
nation made by Carl Eilers, manag-
ing director, of the A. S. & R.
Company, Mr.. Crosser, metallurgist,
both of New York and Kuno Doerr,
manager of the southwestern de-
partment residing at FL Paso, Tex,
was the final transaction for taking
over the group.
1t is reported that comprehen-
sive plan of underground develop
ment will be carried out, and the
incentive for resuming is due to the
advent of the railroad to Clarkdale,
and the building of the new smelter
OF the United Verde Copper Com
pany at that point, an economical
avenue of communication being
available for handling and treating
the immense tonnage available and
which is exposed in all points I'M
/ foreground developed. 1t is estimat-
ed from former operations extend
ing to over sixteen years ago, there
is blocked out at least one and one
half million tons of copper, gold
and silver ores. The Copper Chief
is owned by the estates of E. s
Hayden and Archibald Migeon, botf
of Connecticut, while their represen.
tative in Arizona is Arthur Hendey
of this city, but who formerly had
charge of development, and per
formed several thousand feet of de-
velopment. There is no question O
the desirability of this property, anC
that the transaction will run clos,
to one million of dollars, is the re
port freely in circulation. Th'
Copper Chief was involved in in
tense litigation many years ago, anc
at the outcome the parceling out o
the property followed, with the Iror
b King segregated but on the SAM
, belt as an adjoining property.

LEGISLATIVE EVENTS
FOR THE PAST WEEK
lish who shall have the right to
speak for labor in Arizona.


Senate finance committee is about
to make a report on the bill which
defines the powers and duties OF
the state tax commission and they
have already returned to the Senate
the revenue and tax levy bill which
had been prepared by the state
tax commission. This leaves two
tax measures of consequence to be
considered by committee the private
car line tax bill and the tax bill.
The last named bill is now being
prepared in the rough by the state
tax commission but just when it will
be transmitted is not known.
The Senate today voted to indie
fnitely postpone Senator Chase's bill
providing for the creating of the
office of county auditor, it being
deemed unwise at this time TO make
change in the present scheme OF
county government.
Senator John Hughes of Tucson
has been able to push through the
Senate his bill to establish in cities
and towns municipal slaughter
houses and the measure has been
sent to the House Just what fate
the bill will have there is uncertain
for there are few House members
who have given the matter much
thought On the other hand there
is strong opposition to the bill from
the butchers of various towns who
have written their representatives
concerning the bill Senator Hughes
had decided to let the bill find its
own way through the House but
when he ascertained that the but
cheers are writing letters against the
bill he decided to go to work, and
those who have watched him know
that such a decision on his part
may mean the passage of the bill
At any rate every Representative
in the present session will know
the advantages of a municipal alb,
bator for Hughes will tell them.

CATTLE KILLED
DURING SNOW STORM
(From Thursdays Daily.)

kIANh AhuASNoy yI
The twenty head OF fine cattle
found dead near the tracks of the
s. F. P. & p railway III the Jerome
Junction section recently, are said
to have been killed under rather I'M
usual circumstances during the
heavy snow storms Of about two
weeks ago by a freight trais.
While the storm was at its height
the animals are believed to have
wandered into a deep cut to seek
shelter from the blizzard raging and
the train drawn by two engines
ploughed into them. The engineer
was unable to see the cattle and
their destruction followed. They
were owned by rangemen in that
section.
Travellers through that region
state that immediate action should
be taken to remove their carcasses
as there is a probability of con-
tamination following when the
warm weather comes.

STAMPS BEGINs TO
DROP AT THE CLIMAX
(From Thursdays Daily

Willis A. Gates, general manager
of the Climax Mining Company,
while in the city yesterday stated
that the mill would begin dropping
ten stamps on Friday morning, all
repairs and remodeling having been
completed.
From exploration recently, there
are on the dump and ready for
blocking out several hundred tons
of a good milling grade of ore, and
it was not anticipated but what the
plant would be kept running con-
tinuously for several months to
come.
Manager Gates also states that
development goes ahead rapidly
and there is no doubt but what the
proposition is destined to be a sue
cessful one. As soon as weather
conditions permit the dismantling oil
the. Hidden Treasure mill, near
Turkey, will begin and transported
to the Climax, to be added to the
present plant. This increased ser
vice will give a battery of twenty
stamps and the tonnage available
will assure continuous running o.
the enlarged mill. Roads into til,
camp are in a deplorable condition
and the snow storm of yesterday
only added to the trouble of freight
ing in and out.

1t now seems doubtful if the re-
form school question will be settled
at the session in anything like final
way. The state Senate has killed
Representative Jacobson's resolution
for an investigation of the water
conditions at Fort Grant and the
House is divided over the bill to
move the school to the Fort site
without an investigation. To further
confuse along comes report from
state auditor Callaghan who says
he disagrees with Osborn secretary
of the Board of Control in the re-
concentration that the school should
go to Fort Grant and says in his
Judgment the school as it is at
present constructed should be used
for the girls who are committed
TO the school and a school for the
boys should be built on a section OF
school lands near Benson. To off
set the report of residents of Ora
ham county concerning water con-
ditions at Grant a petition was
this morning read in the House
from residents of Wilcox saying
there was water a plentiful for all
and no chance of its not being
sufficient for school purposes. But
the climax and why 1 say there
may be no decision in the matter
will be Governor Hunts letter con-
corning Benson and present con-
.ditions which he now preparing fol-

Northern Arizona cattlemen are
protesting against the creation OF

have asked that before definite act
ion is taken their representative Mr..
Barnett Stiles of Williams be heard
On motion of Speaker Linney the
House granted the request.
While the senate today passed
the general county division bill
which outlines the machinery by
which residents of any county may
petition and secure an election for
the formation of a new county the
House took shorter cut towards
changing various county lines OF
the state and today passed special
bills one creating the county OF
Orange and the other changing the
boundary line between Pinal and
ella counties so that Hyden and
Winkleman if the Senate pass the
bill will be in Pinal county. just
what the Senate will do is of course
a guess but Senator Brown is earn
est in the work he is doing on the
measure. 1t is doubtful if the bill:
will fare any better than did the
Hunt county bill in the Senate that
measure having been tossed around
by the upper House for severa
weeks.

AUTO APPARATUS
For Fire Department May Be Purchas
ed BY City Council.

In the near future Paris will most
likely have new automobile fire ap-
paratus and it is probable the pur-
chase of such q machine to add to the
equipment Of the department will be
made at the meeting of the City Coun-
Gil Thursday night.
Mayor ]. T. Hinton, who at the last
meeting of the counil advocated the
purchase of the machine, has express
ed himself as being/strongly in favor
of closing a contract without further
delay and will make a report to the
council at its next meeting.
During the past few days repre-
sentative of a New York automobile
manufactury and a representative of a
Cincinnati concern have been in the
city in conference with the Mayer and
members of the fire committee of the
! council, with the result that some very
interesting figures have been secured.
The report which Mayor Hinton will
make to the council Thurcsad night
will carry with it a statement of the
| pressing demand for such an improve
ment in the department.
The rapid growth of the city in the
past few years makes it necessary for
the installation Of an apparatus that
will be capable of reaching a fire in
the most remote prtt of the city in
much less time than is now required.
All of the principal cities in Ken
lucky have installed auto apparatus
and the most satisfactory results are
being obtained daily. Mayor Hinton,
together with the members of the fire
committee of the council will go to
Frankfort Wednesday to inspect the
equipment of the department of that
city, which is said to be the most com.
