JAPANESE FARM
EXPERT STUDIES
LOCAL METHODS

T. Hirobe, representing the Central
Agricultural Experiment Station OF
Japan, arrived in Phoenix yesterday
to make an inspection of the great
irrigation system
MIR. Hirobe, who has more German
than English, was able to make him
self understood by the officials of the
reclamation service to whom he APP
piled for informa ton. He explained
that he had been stationed in Ger
many for several years, prosecuting
a study of the excellent agricultural
methods of that people, and that on
the outbreak of the war, he had
been detailed to special work in
America.
Not as an engineer, but as a stu
dent of irrigation methods on the
farm, Mr.. Hirobe will pass several
days in the valley, visiting the canals
and prominent ranches

One absent and one excused.
Before the result of the vote was
announced Mr.. Flanagan changed his
vote and gave notice of a motion to
reconsider.
In the course of the explanation of
votes, Messrs. Claypool and Mahoney
stated that they were in favor of
capital punishment in certain cases
and that though they would do so
with some reluctance, they would
vote for the resolution in its present
form. asking only for a reprieve.
Mr.. Goodwin made the sensational
statement that shortly before the
house had been reconvened he had
been visited by a delegation of ladies
who had told him after he declared
that he would vote against the reso-
luton, that he, two members of the
supreme court and the members of
the board of pardons and paroles had
been marked for political death. Mr.
Goodwin sent to the speakers desk

subject of capital punishment but on
the inconsistency of democrats who

Patriotism in the Senate
While the senate was awaiting in
the morning on the motions of the
house Mr.. Riggs, in burst of pat
riotism, offered a concurrent resolu-
ton providing for the sitting of the
house and the senate without pay,
for today is the last day the mem
bers can draw salaries until another
appropriation bill has been passed.
There was not a quorum present and
a call of the house was ordered.
When the absentees in the corridors
learned of the pending resolution
they restrained their desire to come
in. When they were finally cor
rallied Mr.. Harms begged to be ex-
cused from voting on the ground that
he was financially concerned in the
proposed legislation-to the extent of
IS7 a day Mr.. Goldwater moved that
Mr.. Riggs be prevented from voting
on the ground that he, too, was an
interested party. Just what hap
pened to the resolution was lost
sight of in the confusion
The senate adopted the house con-
current resolution approving the for
eign policy of President Wilson. The
resolution was inspired by the presi-
dents note to Germany but the
terms of the resolution We're so broad
as to include the whole foreign poll
cy and thereby failed to secure the
support of Messrs. Garvin and Harms
and President Sims. These gentle
men, though all good democrats, live
in towns on or near the Mexican
border and have ideas of their own
as to a foreign policy with respect
to Mexico.

"In my casual and campaign trav-

direct contact. Even in the thickest
campaign times, | have never been
free of my gubernatorial duties. In
meeting people who were unable to
journey to Sacramento | have so FREE
quently been called upon to perform
some official service that | have felt
myself removed from the office at

"The chief executive is not the gov
ernor of any single locality, but of

it, be his chief consideration"

DISCUSS PROPOSED
CORPORATION TAX

Sacramento, Jan. 11.-Governor
johnson and leaders of the senate and
assembly conferred yesterday over
the states case in the revenue and
taxation hearings which will begin to-
morrow night with the presentation
of the railroad phase of the matter.
Attorney General Webb has been
summoned to Sacramento to be pres
ent at the hearing, which, it has de-
veloped, will not be love feast. The
corporations, and especially the banks,
are going to resist the figures of the
state board of equalization.

Attorney M. w. Conkling is back
from Sacramento, where he has been
in the interest of emergency legisla-
ton to permit the irrigation district to
sell bonds and borrow money for work
on the levee, and he states there is no
question that the measure will pass
without opposition.
Lieutenant Governor Eshleman and
Senator Anderson of this district will

Against tuberculosis.

Sacramento, Jan. 11.-A systematic
campaign against the spread of tu-
berculosis in California will be UNDER
taken if the legislature adopts the rec
cmmendation of the state board of
control appropriating 100000 for the
purpose. The subject will undoubt-
edly cause general discussion, as a
bill on the same problem has been
presented by Senator Crowley of San
Francisco.
The state board of control has in
vestigated the subject and had de-
cided that the most feasible plan APP
pears to be that (which contemplates
g system of aid through the counties,
with general supervision and control
vested in the state"
The plan contemplates the payment
of aid in those cases where the coun-
ties have actually taken up the work
of properly caring for tubercular pa
tients.

porations will submit at this time to
something they can't get out of, the
whole scheme of the thing is declared
wrong and its dangers are pointed
out
You can't go on forever raising the
taxes of the corporations, is the gist
of the letter. 1t is limited that the
general property tax may have to be
iesorted to again. Senator Cogswell,
chairman of the taxation committee,
made this statement today:
"The state cannot be blocked by any
constitutional, amendmefits. We have
tc repeal the act and go back to the
old system"
Out of all this may grow new tax
system in California, with an ap-
rointive tax commission in charge, in
stead of the elected board of equali-
zation, which, it is charged, has failed
il this important crisis to have COM
rlete and satisfactory data at hand
relative to the basic valuation of prop
erty by the various counties.
Drum urges tax committee and
the question will probably be consid-
cred by the legislature.

From France.

Paris, Jan. 11.-Nearly half mile
of German trenches have been cap
tured by the French, according to the
official statement this afternoon. At
three different points on the battle
front the Germans have lost earth
works. One Of these is near La Bois
selle. Northeast of Scissors the
French captured two trenches for a
distance of about 500 yeards, and near
Perthes they have taken 200 yards,
besides defeating counter attacks by
the Germans. One of the counter at
tacks was made with German troops
in mass formation, showing they have
rot abandoned the tactics which cost
them such heavy losses at the outset
of the war;
Paris, Jan. 1.-THE French govern
ment anticipates an aerial raid by
German airships on Paris. 1t is of
flcially announced today that instruc
tions will soon be issued telling the
Parisians what means to take in case
Zeppellns come over the capital.

Word comes from Washington tnat
the Los Angeles delegation at the ma
tional capital have been instructed to
FIGHT the bill for the establishment of
2 land office in Imperial Valley. This
is looked upon as characteristic of the
policy of Los Angeles. The fact is
tointed out that when the question OF
creation Imperial county out of the
eastern end of Fan Diego county the
people of San Diego aided in bring
ing about the division, because they
recognized the justice of the desire
of this valley. Later San Diego CO.
operated with this valley in building
highways, while Los Angeles has
thrown its influence against this val
ley in the matter of good roads.
The great need for land office
here, to put an end to the expense
of frequent trips to Los Angeles on
matters of land title is so apparent
that it needs no argument, but Los
Angeles is opposing it, not on ba-
sis of justice, but of greed.
1t is the common feeling here that
Los Angeles, by its policy of antag-
onism to Imperial Valley at every
turn, is destined to be a greater loser
than the valley in the long course of
events.

ciliatory nature. The Evening Stand

some Britons think is prudent. On
the other hand, the Pail Mall Gazette
