CALLAGHAN ASKS
FOR AN INQUIRY

PHOENIX. Feb. 2S.-Strong ru
mors are circulating around the city
that the State Industrial school 10,
Gated at Fort Grant is again il
trouble, and that the outcome oil
this will be a public investigation
into conditions there by the board
of control and an energetic attempt
TO right matters once and for all
1t was rumored among other things
that State Auditor Callaghan had
filed letter with the board asking
for the investigation. Mr.. Callag-
han returned from a visit to that
institution but few days ago.
In connection, also, with this ru-
NOR is the one that conditions are
not all they ought to be at the
Pioneer Home at Prescott, and that
an investigation of that institution
is also forthcoming. Just what is
the nature of the charges against
the Pioneers Home. other than bad
management, could not be learned,
but il WAS admitted in certain cir
cles that an attempt will be made
TO remove the present supcrintend-
ent of the institution. Percy V.
Coldwell, who has held his office
since the resignation OF Major ~
J. Doran some eighteen months or
two years ago. Coldwell comes from
Cochise county.
The charges against the conditions
OF the industrial school are. how
ever, of a much more serious ma
ture, indicating a woeful lack OF
morality on the part OF the two
sexes confined in the institution.
Auditor Callaghan did not deny
that he had asked for the invcstiga-
ton. The letter was received by
the board OF control and will be
made the special order of business
for the Monday session. The actual
contents OF the letter were not
made public, but it is understood
that it is a formal request for an
investigation and nothing more. Sec
rotary Osburn of the board OF CON
troll did not deny that the board
had received such 4 letter, but re
fused to make any statement, either
on the contents or the matters in
volvcd.
Auditor Callaghan would not dis
cuss the questions the letter will
bring up, reserving such an action
until the case is gone into. In that
also, ii was rumorcd
that the present superintendent Of
the school. Hon. w NJ. Whipplc,
had several times requested Gov
crnor Hunt TO allow him TO resign,
but no information as to this rumor
could be obtained at, the governors
office.
All parties connected with the al
fair seem TO be waiting until the
board OF control acts officially upon
the matter before making any state
mcnt whatever about what they
are going TO do.

SPIES RAILROADS
BEHIND MOVEMENT
(By Winfield Jones.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 81
Senator George T. Chamberlain,
Democrat OF Oregon, is outspoken
in his opposition TO repeal of that
portion OF the Panama canal ACT
which cxempts American coastwise
vessels from payment of tolls. He
has Travelled along the same road
with President Wilson since the i'll
auguration, but as TO the repeal OF
the irec-tolIs provision, which is
now being championcd by the chief
executive, the Oregon senator posi-
lively objects.
In d statement given out today
Senator Chamberlain said:
at is my opinion that the de-
mand for the repeal OF that portion
OF the Panama canal act granting
free tolls to coastwisc vessels is in
spired in the first instance by the
Canadian Pacific railroads and they
in turn by the trans-contincntal rail
roads. These roads always oppose
construction of a canal. Their chi
issaries were in Washington TO op-
pose the passage of the Panama
canal act, and, having failed in that,
they are now resorting TO the field
of diplomacy, ready, if need be, 10
plunge the country into a bloody
war TO accomplish their purpose.
Suppose congress yields 10 the
demands of Great Britain and re-
peals the frec-tolls clause Of the act,
will that satisfy her: Not by any
means, for, yielding to this demand,
it will be followed by other in
sistent demands and amongst these
will be the opening of the canal
10 railroad-owned ships. This is
the real secret behind which the
transcontincntal lines are hiding,
both those in Canada and the Unit
cd States.
"lf these demands arc complied
with it will be insisted that we have
no right to fortify the canal that
We have no right to pass our navy
through the canal in time of war;
that VIC cannot honor our treaty
with Panama with reference to the
passage OF her vessels through the
canal; in fact, that we have no rights

mum in the maintenance and opera
ton OF a great national highway
built by American ingenuity with
american money.
There is no question that there
are international complications which
make the subject i delicate one at
this particular juncture, but truly
patriotic American policy demands
that the Panama act should stand
as it was enacted in spite of these |
complications. and the United States
ought TO maintain its position at
any hazard or cost. /
at is insisted by those who would
repeal the clause that it is in vio-
lation Of the y-Paunccfotc treaty, |
but the question Of treaty violation
was discussed at great length be,
fore the law was enacted, and it was
determined by an overwhelming
vote in both the senate and house
that the enactment Of the law was
in no sense of the word d violation
OF the treaty. 1t is not a party
question, but one OF national i'm

nounced. but State and county or
CARNATIONS are contemplated, along
lines duplicating the formation and
control OF those OF the Democratic
party. 1t is proposed to extend the
work into every State and Territory
OF the United States.
1--WE have by no means given up
hope that the present session of
congress will see our suffrage bill
safely through. The situation is
hopeful, in spite Of the fact that
the party has caucrsed against us,
for we hope that the party will re-
consider its action against the suf-
frage cause. But if our optimism
proves unfounded, we will be forced
to go to the voters of the country
and ask them to censure the party
in power by destroying the Demo-
cratic majority in congress"
This is the attitude OF the Con-
gressional Union as voiced by Mrs.
Rheta Dorr, editor of The Suffra-
gist.

interesting monkey drill. 1t was a
pity that limited time necessitated the
combining CT these two events, for
both were so good that the crowd
would have liked to watch each unin-

a HIT with the crowd, consisting OF the
hasty building of a bridge by Company

and its subse ! ent demolitiun after
the defenders had been forced to fall
back across 1T. in the face of fire. The
