AFTER "LITTLE MEMO"
State Taxpayers Association Claims MuIford Winsor FaIsified His Account.

PHOENIX, Ariz., June 27.-Having discovered that the account of Mul- ford Winsor for his ticket to Wash ington and return to attend the hear ing of the scrip case was falsified, the Arizona State Taxpayers As sociation has begun an investigation of Winsor's office to ascertain whether other accounts in connection with the preparation of Winsor's case against 1900 Arizona settlers are false and unlawful.
 Winsor put in demand to the auditor for $103 50 for ticket from Phoenix to Washington, D. G., and return. The account was signed Null ford Winsor, chairman, checked by E. J. Trippel, chief cerk and approv- ed by Vim. A. Moody, member of the commission. It was dated June 2 and was paid June g by Warrant No 6615. The account is put in for 'Traveling Expenses, Railroad Fare, State Land Commission
 The receipt attacher to the ac- count shows that Winsor did not buy ticket to Washington and re- turn as specified in the account but that he purchased a ticket to New York and return and more than the ticket to Washington and return.
 In other words, WinSor represented in the demand that he was buying ticket to Washington but in fact bought one to New York and thus saved the few dollars that junket to the metropolis would cost.
 Advices from Tucson are to the effect that suit will be filed against Winsor to recover three times the amount of this demand.

WOMAN kIDNAPPER.

PHOENIX is Edith Bray, alias Edith Wilson? This is the ques- tion the police of Phoenix and of Los Angeles are unable to answer. Officers in this city as well as along the Pacific coast have been prosecut- ing a careful search for the woman ever since Walter Bray disappeared from Los Angeles two weeks ago. Mrs Bray was known to have been living in Phoenix subsequent to her separation from her husband and the disappearance of their child, who had been given into the custody of the husband and father was coupled in the minds of the father and of the police with thoughts of possible Kidnapping by the mother.

MAY HAVE suIcIpED.

DOUGLAS-Belief is growing here that R. A. Harol, mining man, who perished in dynamite explosion in the Pitacachi mine, may have com- mitted suicide. It is mere theory, based on ignorance of how a great quantity of dynamite could have been in the mine otherwise. There is no known motive for suicide, how ever. Bits of Huren's body were picked from the walls of the mine. The fragments were brought here by number of the mining mans friends.

The place of the late Theodore J.. De Winnie is

such fertilizng and constructive influences that we
cannot imagine history without them. He was
a printer by instinct. one man is painter
another is musician, and he developed his natu-
raj gifts by constant enthusiastic study. Years

He had taste which in any art is half the battle.
and it is significant of the rich character he pos
sessed that liza was always eager TO apply in many
different directions his sense Of what right

the founders of the Grolicr Club served as its

The Luck of the Sea.

II any one is inclined to wonder at the fataIlsm
which nhabits seafaring folk, the lot Of the fabre
liner Roma might be cited an item in explanation.
Here ship with five hundred men, women
and children aboard strikes bottom on forlorn
coast in blizzard weather The chances of sudden
destruction are too ugly and numerous to mention
Yet by a sudden shift in the wind and with every
hazard favorng the ship pulls free and makes port
with hardly seam started.
Such an utterly pro1idcntia escape from the jaws
Of disaster is anything but infrcquent at sea Day
by day salormen come slap against Just such occa-
sions where the last righteousness Of man is a
rope Tapping in the wind and the big hand Of the sea
brushes or saves as IL wills.
When the perfect bulkhesd has been built above
an impenetrable double bottom In ship armed with
the last infallibc contraptons the luck of the sea
will still remain the master Of us all.

The Visiting School Superintendent.

The two hundred and more district supcrnend-
ens OF the public schools of this state have come
hithcr TO meet one another in annual convention as
well as 10 visit this city. The latter purpose may
not be the greater but it is certainly not negligible.
The convention might have been held elsewhere. but
nowhere else could its members have received quite
as much profit from their visit they should re-
ceive here: and we are not sure that they could
anywhere else have done much good mission
aries.
The significant feature Of the occasion is the
unity of the state educational system which il be
tokens Here are the superintendent Of rural
schools coming TO the great city, and here arc the
representatives Of the primary and grammar
schools assembling as the guests Of one of the
largest universities. The community Of interest in
education between city and country and among All

A CRITICISM OF SINGLE TAX
The Basic Theory of Progress and
Poverty" Is Called Historically False.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In YOUR issue Of the 18th Frank
Norwood advises those who feel interested
in the single tax question 10 study Henry
Georges Social Problems" which. he
says. contains all that is essential III
Progress and Poverty'
Now. I would advise interested parties
70 study Progress and Poverty first.
Then. If they use their common sense,
they cannot fail to see that the whole sin
gle tax doctrine is resting on brazenly
false basis.
Briefly stated this doctiue asserts that
wages depend on the margin Of cultivation
In the first stages Of society land is plea-
tiful. labor IS scarce and wages are at q.
maximum. AS population increases land
rises in value and wages tend to a mimi
mum, where labor can earn but a bare
living.
Now. what are the facts? Is il true that
the wages OF labor are lower or that the
conditions OF labor are worse to-day than
they were 100, 500, 100 or 1000 years ago?
This is the question that single takers
must answer first. Unless they can prove
that the average laborer is worse off to-
day than he was In these former periods,
then their whole doctrine falls 70 the
II ound. II is historically false.
