Controversy Over Shroud.

The display OF the Holy Shroud, at
Turin. during Easter has again brought
up the question of its authenticity. Two
artist, have arrived at the conclusion that
the shroud possesses the true likeness OF
Christ. DR.. Paul Vignon. Frenchman,
after long investigation, declares that the
Holy Shroud bears a picture OF a man,
caused by vapors from the body acting
upon the stuff impregnated with oils ana
aloes.
Sir Wyke Bayliss, president Of the
Royal Institute OF British Artists, is con-
WINGED that the portrait OF Christ in the
Catacombs of San Callisto here was made
by a contemporary artist. that is, one
who had seen his subject, and as the
faces of the shroud and the catacombs
are the same 1t might be concluded that
the Holy Shroud really inclosed the body
of Christ. Ii was taken from Cyprus TO
Chambery 0hen part OF italy, in 1852, and
has since been in Turin.
THE Lancet" the British medical Jour
nal, said at the time that Dr. Vignon
brought out his theory: There seems TO
he little room for doubt that NJ. Vignon
has established that the outlines OF the
shroud are due 10 the carnations OF
vapors. lie certainly seems to have
proved that the material must have been
the shroud OF cruched person. and one
who underwent scourging and the other
accomplishments OF death. which by both
the Scriptures and tradition are ascribed
TO the passion OF Christ"

Mr. McReynolds declined TO tell what the
plans of the Department OF Justice were
The request of the Attorney General
was refused. however, because the COM
mission is proceeding In response to a

The efforts of Mr.. McReynolds to hoih

ABRAHAM LINC0LN'S
TARIFF VIEWS FIT CURRENT
BUSINESS CONDITIONS

Last week the daily newspapers OF ne"
York City carried a shoe advertisement
with ne caption, what Abraham"Lin-
coin Said About the Tariff" A quota
ton from Lincoln was used to emphasize
the fact that the advertiser sold Amer
cau-made shoes. This Protection adver'
tisement," which aroused considerable
public interest and comment, was inserted
nv lanes s. Coward. Il has since be-
rome known as "the Abraham Lincoln
ad."
When asked by newspaper representa-
tive if there was airy special reason iof
publishing such an advertisement at this
time Mr.. Coward replied that there was
and related the following incident as
showing the necessity for Protecting the
great shoe industry of America against
poorly paid and chesply made foreign
competition:
A few months ago noticed Japanese In
nv store purchasing some IS 10 80 pair OF
shoes. and selecting diferen, styles with little
regard 10 size asked why he did 80. and ne
smilingly told me that he manufactured shses
in Japan and would take my SHOES nome 70
copy them. BY further questioning ] found
that he was engaging the best shoemakers ne
could find here 10 rsiurn with him TO Japan TO
teach his people the trade When ! asked about
wages in Japan. he said japanese men received
from 40 cents 10 20 cents Gay. while women
we're paid from 20 cents 10 20 cents q day, and
that he useo American machinery.

Considering that Japanese shoe operators are
paid only one-fourth 10 ne-tenth of American
wages how long will II be before the Japs will
invade this country with their cheaply made

led me 10 insert the announcement reminding
the New York public what Abraham Lincoln
said about the Tariff.

world are considering the menace to

ROMANS AT ODDS
OVER DANTE PLANS
Many Want Poets Works
Published for Death
Anniversary.

Rome. April 29.-Although the 6OOth an
niversary Of Dante's death is still seven
years off, his fellow countrymen are
already quarrelling over what shall 5e
done to mark the date. monument
has been suggested. but to thrust the
great poet into the company OF certain
other men who have been commemorated
by statues in the Eternal city will not
be a great compliment, say some OF
Dante's most ardent admirers.
The most popular suggestion so far
seems to be that the state should publish
the entire works of Dante. adhering as
near as possible to the manuscripts. 1t
is said that seven years would be neces-
sary to complete such work.
The Italian Dante Society has already
issued the DE Vulgari Eloquentia" and
the "Vita Nuova," over which it took
thirty years. The manuscripts are dis
tributed among all the great Libraries of
Europe, and cannot be published complete
only through photographing each manu-
script page for the use of the compilers.
1t is computed that the publication would
comprise twelve volumes.

THE Fight AGAINST THE AMENDMENT.

During the week convention has been held
in Phoenix composed of liquor dealers through
out the state. This convention met for the pur-
pose of considering the advisability and probable
success of an attack through the courts on the
dry amendment to our constitution, adopted at
the general election Nov 8. That the liquor
dealers will not submit to practical confscaton
of their business and property until the last legal
remedy has been exhausted is perfectly natural.
Just what the line of attack will be is not known
yet and probably will not be disclosed until the
Governor issues his proclamation declaring the
amendment in effect. The concensus of opinion
of great majority of the people of Arizona is
that Arizona has gone dry and will remain dry
for the ensuing two years. at least, notwithstand-
ing the effort of the best legal talent in the coun-
try to pick flaws in the amendment passed. The
dry amendment has five thousand majority be-
hind it. The supreme power in the state-the
people-have adopted it and opine the supreme
court of the will hesitate long time before
that tribunal will upset the will of the people. On
the other hand if the drastic provisions of the
amendment are strictly enforced expct to see
Arizona return to the wet column in 1916. But
those drastic provisions will never be enforced.
They will fall of their weight for lack of sup
port of public sentiment The net result will be
the closing OF saloons and the enforcement of the
law against boot-leggers, and that's the main is
sue with the Prohibitionists.

Editor Breen, of the Coconino Sun,
who was defeated for the Senate in
his county, says:
THE big show is over and the re-
suit more or less satisfactory, as the
case may be, will stand for another
two years. The much sought voter
may return to his vocation in life
and walk the streets without an es-
cort of enquirers into his health and
well being. The victors are not crow
ing and the losers are not kicking.
They know the game and abide by its
rules and regulations. Whether the
affairs of the county will be admins
tered better or worse remains to be
seen, but the men elected deserve the
support of the people in county bust
ness as well as in politics. The con-
stituency is more or less responsible
for the conduct of it's candidate and
the candidate in turn owes his consti-
tuency a good, fair administration
We hope neither will make mistake. -

that the Democratic party's legisla-
