THE N|L|TANTS
Invade CATH0-
Lie CHURCHES
English Suffragettes Disturb Wor-
shippers at Westminster and
Brompton.
THE FEELING IS BITTER.
Hostility Of Public Toward Women
Is Growing More Pro-
nounced.
THE FEELING IS BITTER

London, June S.-Suffragettes for
the first time yesterday invaded
Catholic churches and created scenes
by attempting to harangue the con-
gregations. Warship was disturbed
in both Westminster cathedral and
the Church of the Oratory, Bromp-
ton.
Father Bernard Vaughan had just
taken his place in the pulpit in
Westminster cathedral during the
evening service when woman we'll
dressed and apparently of refine
ment, rushed up the steps into an
other pulpit and waving her arms
shrieked: elm the presence of the
Blessed Sacrament I protest against
the forcible feeding of women"
The congregation, shocked by the
woman's action, rose from their
seats. Murmurs of protest at the
sacrilege ran through the edifice.
One of the women worshippers tried
to persuade the suffragette to des-
cend from the pulpit, but she re-
manned waving her arms and yell
ing incoherently until the vergers
forcibly pulled her down the steps
and led her to the door, where she
was turned over to the police. She
declined to give her name.
A band of militant suffragettes in
terrupted the midday mass in the
Church of the Oratory by chanting:
"God save Emmeline Pankhurst and
all our noble prisoners; open the
eyes of this church and of the priests
to put an end to the torture; in the
name of the blessed Joan of Arc,
hear them in their hour of need"
A scene of disorder ensued. A
suffragette arose and started pray
er but she scarcely uttered word
when a woman worshipper held her
hands over the mouth of the suffra
gette. Struggling fiercely and
screaming, the suffragettes were
forced by ushers and male parish
toner's down the aisle to the doors
and into the street. Many of the
members of the congregation fol-
lowed the evicted suffragettes to the
sidewalk where a well dressed wom-
an hit militant sister in the face
which bled profusely. The crowd
cheered the woman who struck the
blow. Only two of the suffragettes
who caused the disorder were arrest
ed.
The growing hostility on the part
of the public toward the militant
suffra gettes was shown by assaults
yesterday on several open air meet
ings. Speakers were mobbed, stands
were torn down and the women
We're saved by the police from duck
ings or beatings. A crowd at Hamp-
stead Heath knocked over the plat
form from which party of militant
suffra gettes were to speak and scat
tered the suffragettes in all direc-
tions. They tried to drag two of
the women to a pond for a ducking
but police rescued them.
A similar scene occurred in Clap
ham Common. When a militant
suffragette advocated the use of
bombs the speaker and those on the
stand with her were pelted with
mud The police helped the wom-
en- to escape on a motor bus. Al
meeting in Hyde park ended in the
same manner

ORDER COLD CREAM
BY THE WIRELESS
Liner Puts Back Forty-five Miles to
Accommodate Fair Passengers.

San Francisco, CAL, June s.
When the Matson liner Wilhelmina
was forty-fve miles out from Homo
lulu and had cleared diamond
heads, the ship was put back to port
by Capt. Peter Johnston, and took
on board this additional item:
One jar of cold cream.
The cold cream had been ordered
by wireless from the steamer.
On board the Wilhelmina anxious
ly waiting for the cold cream were
two San Francisco society girls, suf-
fering from bad cases of Honolulu
tan. The girls are Miss Laura
Pearkes and Miss Inez Marion.
"Why, we just had to have the
cream" said Miss Pearkes yesterday
when she stepped off the steamer
with her mother, Mrs. Jane Pearkes,
who is a relative of Mrs. Eugene de
Saba.

Club Women Attend Biennial.

The twelfth biennial of the Ma
tional Federation of Women's clubs
one of the largest women's con-
ventions ever held-will convene in
Chicago June 9th to 10Th. Chicago
expects to entertain $4,000 women,
which includes club representatives
from every state in the union, the
Philippines, Canada, India, West In
dies and Japan. The Chicago Rec
ord-Herald says the first convention
was held in that city in 1892 and
that 297 women were entertained by
the club women of that city-quite
a comparison with the 5000 to at
tend at this time, twenty-five years
later.
The main meetings during the
convention will be held in the au
ditorium. Among topics to be dis
cussed we note suffrage and the
dress question. Mrs. Carrie Chap
man Gait, chief of the New York
women, will give the first address
on woman suffrage ever delivered at
a biennial. A great many social af
fairs and sightseeing trips will be
given for the entertainment of the
club women. One of the most bril-
liant features will be a Greek pag-
aent, given at the art institute, in
which several hundred singers and
dancers will take part.
Webster City has nine federated
clubs They will be represented by
Mrs. F. E. Whitley, Wednesday club,
who is vice president of the state
federation of women's clubs; Mrs
w. C. Burleson, Home club, member

Arizona republican., 1914-10-16

The Arizona wet advocates boast of the present local option law in Arizona Then why do they seek to change it by dividing the unit of territory into precincts" and sub division of precincts as they do in the wet amendment? If it is a good thing why not let it alone?
 No wet advocate will tell just what extent of territory constitutes a unit of self government. They will favor anything that is not up to vote upon and oppose anything that is up to vote upon.
 The fact is that the territory from which a unit for self government should be made is that territory in which the traffic operates and which cofines it's consequences.
 Phoenix is now a unit of self-gov- ernment and correctly so on all local questions. She chooses her own mayor and commissioners and man. ager because these operations are con fined to the city. She selects her own police force and fire department for the same reason. She regulates her own street railroad and light plant and water system for the same reason
 When it comes to the question of a
Arizona republican., 1914-10-16
LOCAL OPTION

Ask the wet advocate who is just now shouting for local option because it is not an issue and opposing state wide prohibition because it is an is- sue, why he faVors local option, and he will answer that he does so be- cause he favors local self government
 What does he mean by local self government?
 He cannot tell you because he does not know himself.
 The wet advocates in congress are opposing the Hobson amendment be- cause they are in favor of states rights. That is another name for local self government" The wet advocates in Arizona are opposing the state wide dry amend ment because they are in favor of county rights and town rights and precinct rights and subdivision of precinct rights.
 There is no difference between the two contentious except they are both feminist. Both dodge the issue If the state is the proper unit of self government for the wet con gressmen in Washington why is it not the proper unit for the wet voter in Arizona?

 Faded, Lifeless Hair

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew = ing q mixture of Sage Tea and Sul- phur Your hair is your charm It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and scraggly, just an ap- plication or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances it's appearance a hundred fold
 Don't bother to prepare the tonic; you can get from any drug store q 50-cent bottle of "Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound" ready to use. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color, thick ness and lustre of your hair and re move dandruff, stop scalp itching ind falling hair.
 Everybody uses "Wyeth's' Sage and Sulphur because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge o. soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time by morning the gray hair has disan- peared, and after another application it becomes beautifully dark and ap- pears glossy, lustrous and abundant

 The state is the proper unit until the nation can be reached. The tax payers of Graham county, with three prisoners in the state penitentiary, must pay for the keeping of 76 pris- oners from Maricopa county and the T prisoners from Cochise The tax payers of Apache county, with one prisoner in the penitentary, must pay for the crime of every wet center in the state though both of these coun- ties are dry under local option. Every man and woman with a prop erly developed sense of justice and reason knows that the unit of self government should be large enough to confine the consequences of that self government to it's own limits.

Reciprocity in Water Car rying Considered and Plan for Continuance of the Old Agreement Was Taken Up

Negotiations for continuing the system of mutual water service that has been in effect since the recla- nation service took over the canal system, were entered ipto yesterday and day before by Acting Chief En- 9ineer D. C. Henny and his board, and the directors and attorneys of the Tempe Canals company. That an entirely amicable and successful pl opositions agreed upon need only the approval of the reclamation com mission before they become rules fo.- future service, was about the only announcement Supervising Engineer Frank w. Hanna had to make.
 With Mir. Henny, the local chief of the southern reclamation division left for Fl Paso last night to attend number of important conferences. From the Pass City they will con- tinue their rounds to Yuma.
 The approach of the date upon which Dr. A. J. Chandler will aban- ocn his power plant north of Mesa, and begin taking power direct from the government in lieu of water, caused the conference Since the reclamation service became operators of the canal system, it has been the practice to give the Tempe company the waters that had to be carried to Chandler's power plant, as each re- Cipient had a substantial prior right one to water for power and the other to irrigation water Because the Tempe Canal company carries water for the San Francisco ditch, q government operated system. there

sheriff or governor or congressman. Phoenix is no longer a unit. She be- comes part and parcel of yaster unit
 The liquor traffic is legal in Phoe- nix but outlawed outside of Phoenix in Maricopa county Thus the liquor every element connected with it is confined to Phoenix
 Everybody knows that the liquor traffic is not local; that it is not confined to Phoenix, that it uses Phoenix as q center of invasion to make Maricopa county wet. that none of the results of the traffic are con fined to Phoenix: that the crime and poverty and insanity and degeneracy incident to the traffic cannot be con- fined to the corporation limits of Phoenix.
 Here is murder committed in Phoenix. It is the result of inflam- nig the mind of the murderer by liquor bought in a Phoenix saloon If the traffic was fit subject for local self government the murder case would also be subject to local self government
 The state of Arizona assumes the responsibility for punishing the crime. It makes the charge, hunts up the evidence, incarcerates the prisoner, provides the place of trial summons the jurors. pays the salary of the judge and liquidates the eX- pense of the trial.

ENGINEERS DISCUSS. MUTUAL
 WATER SERVICE WITH TEMPE

has been a sort of mutual agree ment between the two, and it is to prepare for future water carriage that the meeting was held.
 The water service contemplated in the negotiations between the special board and the canal company does rot include that called "excess wat CT" To questions regarding the set tlement of the charge that will be made for carrying this excess water Mir. Hanna had nothing to say. He said, Our meeting was merely to consider the continuance of that mu- from time immemorial. We carry their normal flow water for the Tempe lands and that carry tho water for our San Francisco canal"
 In the present negotiations, the Utah Canal company had no part. Since the Utah people declined to Day a carrying charge for water de- liVered them at a heading in a gov cInment canal, they have been pick ing up their water at their old head in the river.
 It is understood that the recla- nation commission would concur in the schedule of prices for water ser vice to companies and individuals not in the water users association, compiled by Messrs Davis and O'Donnell on their visit here last spring This schedule, it is claimed, contemplated a charge of seventy five cents for an acre foot of normal flow, dollar for flood and a dollar twenty-five for reservoir water An arbitrary charge of $2 an acre foot has since been imposed by the com mission on all service for tOwnsite lands in every project under govern ment control. It was similar charge. intended to be imposed on subdivisions not yet accepted into the corporate limits of towns, that caused such furore here and brought about the year of grace"
