 2 This preliminary attack will tax e the form of political support of ceF- ftain labor candidates, who expect to oppose the anti-suffrage cabinet mem fbers at the next general election. The government is being attacked because, zalthoagh it has a majority in favor rof vvomen's suffrage, it refuses to sT1aJxe their eIlfranchisenent a gov ernnent measure. The Labor party sviII be assisted because 1t is, so far, fhe only party which has placed wo- smen's suffrage in it's official platform. The Union itself is non-partisan, em- bracing members from all the parties but it is the considered opinion of fhe officials that the hand of the iFovernment should be forced by op- posing it's anti-Sunrage adherents-

 s The police have been subjected to considerable criticism for the small humber of arrests they made at the Eecent Bow Baths riot in the East A1nd. when Sylvia Pankhurst was res r1Ied by her followers, but modesty aaas prevented the London policeman From coming forward with a perfect dy adequate excuse for his small suf- 6ragette bag.
 The story of the newest form of militant strategy might never have been made public had not some of the nzictorhous sudragetteS boasted about dt to their friends. According to khese fzhters every time 8. policeman krasped a suffragette one of her com rades, todd off for that purpose, would kfp open the officers coat and cut his kenses of duty and modesty the con- stable had to sacrifice his capture or his dignity. and everyone who knows #he London bobby wi1F~ guess that hhe prisoner escaped.
 The troubles of the much-abused police did not end with the escape of their prisoners, for when they were lined LTD before the inspector to re- bort off duty, they got a rating for hands at their sides. The chafhng of their comrades in the station house, when they discovered the cause for flais sIackness, did not add to their happiness-
 It is said t7aat when Miss Pankhurst was arrested the next night at Poplar roWn Hall, her captors had provided for repetition of the attack by an- chof1ng their trousers so securely that a mere shipping of thu auspenders did not eause them any concern.

Xachtsmen who followed the races around British Isles and in continen- tai waters during the past season tell an incident which emphasizes the fhoroughness with which Charles Nicholson, the designer of new Anasrfca cup challenger, carries out e1etything he undertakes.
 It occurred aboard the @ttIstria,'' which won the 15-metre race at KieI last year. Nicholson not only de- signed and built but also skippered me 'Istria'' in her big races. On the occasion mentioned the yacht was late in getting under war for the Btartfng point and friendly. steam Yacht gave her line Those on the gteam yacht soon. learned the cause of khe s'Istria's'' lateness. Perched above Ehe eross-trees was Nicholson, the de- Hiener. builder and skipper, making wure that some bolts were quite right before the race started.
 Nicholson is probably the least wor- He'd of the men interested in the big race of next. Asked the other day whether he was not kept busy on Sf5hamrock w. he shook his head hnd said: 'Tt does not worry me- It N 3nst a question of building another sarht, only 1t is a little larger" De- nhfte this Nicholson can be depended npon to see that everything possible as dene to win the cup, no matter how work and consideration it takes.

 Never was a greater contrast be tween two Queens afforded than the presence together of Queens Mary and Alexandra at. the marriage of Prince Arthur of Connaught and the Ouch ess Of Fife
 Although common report says the two women are not on the most friendly terms, custom demands that at many functions they appear to- etseher and at the marriage at St. flames Palace they both entered and left the chapel hand in hand. Of the two in fact at least, Queen Alex erdra, who will be sixty-nine on De- rennber 1 next, and is therefore twen- fv-three years older than her daugh- fer-fn-law, appears the younger, but when she walks her age is more ap- parent Her face, too, is always brigntened by smile, which no doubt aceounts for her never-waning popu- 1arity with the general public, who al- r7nyas cheer her more heartily than any members of the royal family, rf1fh the possible exception of the Duke of Connaught, with whom she divides honors in this respect.

THE TRAGEDY OF BULGARIA.

Rage and disappointment among
the Bulgarians at their loss of prac-
tically all of the fruits of their vic
torious war against Turkey could be,
and was, foreseen at the time of the
armistice and the conferences of the
Ambassadors in London. Bulgaria
had been, up to that time, and was
again after hostilities were renewed,
bearing the brunt of the fighting
against the common enemy. The
other allied forces were doing we'll
whatever fell to them in the division
of the campaign work, and the
Greeks were operating on sea as
well as on land. But the geograph-
ica1, as we'll as the military, neces-
sites of the case had thrown upon

the heat and burden of the day. And
their preparedness for the Struggle,
which they had evidently anticipated
for some years, was shown in their
fine equipment, and in the mobility
and training of their troops. The
tactics, as well as the fine soldierly
qualities displayed by their army in
its victorious attacks, commanded
the admiration of the world.
With that fine army largely deci-
mated, Bulgaria found herself, at
the close of the war, practically
where she was before its beginning.
In the division of the spoils, Bulgaria
got nothing which anybody capable
of appraising values could think to
compensate. her for her expenditure
of blood and treasure, And she must
have found, what it had also been
possible to foresee, that some of her
allies were capable of treachery in
playing into the hands of the great
powers of Europe for their own adj
vantage, and for the. purpose of de-
priving Bulgaria of primacy among
the States OF the Balkan country.
The time was surely one for cool
ness and patience and the diplomacy
which knows how to watch and wait
But Bulgaria, smarting under a sense
of loss and of injustice, was inca
pable of these qualities. Whether
her King, and her Statesmen, really
hoped to conduct victorius cam
paign against the other Balkan
States, or whether the impetuosity
of q still almost primitive people
forced them into another war before |
their troops had recovered from a |

results of such a campaign could |

lilies, would have been the same in

states to let Bulgaria take and hold
primacy in the Balkan region Her
yhirlwind campaign against the
Turk proved her to be too formid-

THE BRYAN NOTE.

Secretary Bryan has delivered 70
Ambassador Chinda a note on the
California alien land law which is
intended ia close diplomatic dis
cussion on the subject, and it is to
be hoped that it will have this
result. -.es
1t is idle TO discuss the wisdom Of
the policy involved in the action of
the California Legislature. 1t has
been clearly demonstrated that the
people of. the State desire not only
to exclude Orientals from the privi-
lege of land ownership within their
borders, but, so far as may be pos
sible, to prevent any further immi-
grafton from that source. Within
the restrictions laid down by the
constitution of the United States
they have perfect right to make
any laws on the subject that they
desire, and it is not for the rest of
us to criticise them for meeting in
their own way a situation of which
we have only very vague idea.
The United States has shown a
consideration for japanese sentiment
in the present matter which leaves
no room whatever for complaint by
the Toxic governmental fact, the
administration has gone so far in
that direction as to jeopardize its
popularity at home; but President
Wilson and Secretary Bryan have at
least the satisfaction of knowing that
they have left nothing undone 70

TAXATION IN ARIZONA.

From the preliminary figures and
estimates published it now seems
probable that the valuation of all
property listed for taxation this year
in Arizona will approximate $780,
900, which compares with $4,000
600 for the year 1912 While I'M
doubtedly there has been a con-
siderable increase of wealth in the
State since last year, yet the greater
portion of the increase indicated
by the Assessors figures is ex-
planned by the plan adopted this year
of assessing property of all kinds in
its cash value, which has added prob
ably seventy per cent to the valua-
ton of all property, other than
mines and railroads. The valuation
of the mines, including their equip
ments, have been raised more than
200 per cent, and of the railroads
almost as much, as shown by the
statement printed elsewhere in this
paper. The mines and railroads,
therefore, will be called upon to
pay taxes on more than 63 per
cent of the total valuation of prop
erty in the State. The valuations
placed upon the mines and the rail-
roads may be all right, and would
not be objected to if all other classes
of property were assessed at their
true value, but certain kinds of per-
sonal property have never paid their
just proportion of the taxes, and |
the so-called equaliza-
lion of taxes has been farce. The |
mines and railroads, while contribut-
ing more to the prosperity of Ari-
IONA than all other interests COM
Dined, are the victims of restrictive
avs which discourage expansion.
Whether or not the tax levies this |
year are to be reduced proportionate
10 the increase of property valuations
S still to be determined, but from
present indications the taxpayers are
not going to fare any better than
hey have in the past.-Globe Record.

DUTY OF CITIZENS TO
AID PUBLIC PROSECUTOR.

1t is failing of many of us to
illuminate against attractions or sup
posed infractions of the law and on
the street corner or from a bench
in the Plaza demand that it be en-
forced both in letter and spirit
which is another way only of proving
that talk is cheap. But it takes
courage to step up to the firing
line and aid the properly constituted
officials in doing their duty.
We have been told time and again
that there are many things awry in
this community; that the law is
being violated with impunity; that
things are permitted or winked at
which are not only not legal but
are expressly prohibited by statute;
that certain ordinances are observed
in their breach and altogether the
city and county are fast going to
the demnition bow-wows. As to
the truth of these charges, we can
not say for we have been too busy
to personally investigate them.
But the grand jury meets on the
first of August and then we shall
see what we shall see. If there
is basis for the reports in circulation
then the facts should come out, for
County Attorney P w. O'Sullivan
has issued an open invitation for

PRESCOTT'S PRIDE

Jack McMahn will clash with Charles

battle will be staged in Dougherty's

McMahn needs no introduction.
Naturally he is favorite for to-
nights battle and his many friends
will be at the ringside offering all
the encouragement Jack can con-
sumo
But the wise ones are warning
McMahn's rooters to hold their
horses. Little is known regarding
the Saginaw pride and it would not
be surprising to have him spring
a surprise similar to the one Willie
Richie melted out Ad Wolgast in

Richie was practically an unknown

things easy and snowy as a cham

the unknown "kid," who later be-

SIC TRANSIT.

The news contained in the dis
patches that ]. Garland Stahl, or as
he is better known to baseball en-
thusiasts, cake" Stahl, has been re-
leased not only from the manage
ment, but from all connection with
the worlds champion Boston Ameri-
can league baseball team, gives sharp
emphasis on the fleeing nature of
fame. especially that which is gained
upon the diamond.
But few short months ago Jake
Stahl was popular hero, the idol
of million fans, the brilliant leader
of an organization which was adj
mitted to have no equal in the world.
Today, his laurels stripped from
him, he is turned out to grass, his
glory all departed, his career in his
chosen profession forever closed.
The bug-eyed fanatic who sits
day after day upon the bleachers or
in the stand, and bestows praise or
anathema as his within may dictate,
thinks little and cares less about
the more serious aspects OF the
game which he supports with such
rabid intensity. And yet, where can
one find sharper contrasts of light
and shadow, of humor and pathos.
than in baseball. And where under
the shining sun is there to be found
more cruel mortal than the
average baseball FAM"
The hero of today is the outcast
of tomorrow. The big league star,
if he is foresighted, can look beyond
the crowded stands to the certainty
of the bushes at the end of the
trail. At time of life when the
average man is reaching his prime
his powers have begun to wane,
and in far too many cases he must |
lay down the only vocation that he
knows, with nothing to take its
place by which he can earn even a
moderate subsistence.
A few there are who lay by in
their athletic prime for the lean
years that are certain to come; but
a far greater number come to the
end OF the trail with nothing to show
for the years of their fame, but
