GOVERNOR PLAYS CARD BUT FAILS TO WIN TRICK
Maricopa Member Delivers Veritable Oratory in House Censuring the Looseness of Arizona's Pursestrings.

PHOENIX, Mar 10. There is no possibility that an extra session Of the legislature can now be avoided. although should the house and sen ate come 10 an agreement concerning their differences. and consent to work until Saturday night, the entire bud get of legislation pending could be regularly considered and disposed of
 Governor Hunt this morning. play ed what he thought was a controlling card when he let it be known that he future acts of the legislature were Of little concern to him. The threat had been held up that unless the adminis- tration members voted for the senate land bin and mine tax bill. no appro- priations for the various state insti- tutions would be voted His answer to this that they could neRlect,the ap- propIiations if they SO desired but that he would initiate an appropria- tion bill and by direct vote of the peo pie secure funds sufficient for his various state commissions and state institutions
 Later he discovered that, although he had perfect right to initfate a law and could probably do SO. its sub. mission to a vote could not be ar- ranged until the next general cleo tion. which of course. would leave the state practically two years with out funds and naturally caused him to drop further consideration Of this idea
 Fully aware that the appropriation bill was necessary the fight on fits advancement was continued and by reason of the effort to force the com sideration of the mine tax and land bills, indications are that the appro- priation bin will not be passed thus nceessitating an extra session This situation is being accepted as prob ability on all sides Discussion of the possible date is general. and ma ny members are inclined to urge that the extra session be called on the aar- Hest possible day following adjourn ment
 A senator close 10 the administra- tion is authority for the statement however, that if the governor is fore ed to call an extra session, he will delay the date sufficiently long e. nough that members win have re- turned to their homes and receive the criticism the governor anticipates awaits them Another analysis of the situation, however, is that by de- laying the extra sessicn the tax com mission will, under present revenue law, have fixed the valuations of pro- ducing mines for the 1915 taxation and in this way the demand for mine tax legislation will have been ess- ened
 . The administration and labor com l bination in the house this morning had enough votes, after considerable wrangling to take up the appropria- ton bill under motion that its com sideration in the committee of the whole be continued till completed. A night session tonight was held if possible to complete this measure During the debate today when the experimental farm at Phoenix appro. priation was under consideration Acuh surprised the house with a burst of oratory He has been eX- tremely reticent during the session He contended the experimental farm although costing taxpayers many thousand dollars a year, had never produced a dollar the feed for stock used on the farm having to be pur- chased on the outside The financial
 failure he attributed 10 be due to
 those who had been in charge of the
 farm.
