Passes Arizona's New mine Taxation Bill Almost in Same Words as Drafted by State Mine Organization
HUNT WOULD LIMIT
 EMERGENCY CLAUSE
Sends Message to Solons in Which he lntimates he will Veto Bills Not Meeting his Favor if Attached.

PHOENIX, Jan. 30-Tle senate today passed and sent to Che house the mine tax bin the final vote being 15 ayes and Webb, Claridge, Colter and Munds voting in opposition This action was taken after an uu- important amendment had been adopt ed at the instigation of Senator Ba- con- the introducer of the bill pro viding that where no average price of a product was recorded. then tpe average price received by the produc. CT for such product for the previous ten years should be the price used in making computations.
 A final enort was also made prior to the passage of the bill to have the measure recommitted to the finance committee with instructions that the same be amended to apply to an classes of property Friends of the bin claim that the amendments will have to be disposed of by the house during the coming week although various amendments will have to be disposed Of by tie house before the final attitude of members Of that body can be ascertoned. Since the bill carries am emergency clause a twothirds vote is necessary
 In this connection 1t is interesting to consider a letter sent by Governor Hunt to the legislature today in which he warns the magaiHst an abuse of the use of the emergency clause. The question was raised in his mind by the fact that the senate bill the one which he had approved extending time for the period Of pay ment of taxes, carried the emergency but he doubted if such a clause was used in accordance with either the wording or the spirit of The state con stitution. He had approved that bill but was taking the opportunity to warn the legislators not to consider his action precedent
 The politicians at the capitol claim . the governors real interest in calling attention 10 emergency is to prohibit l if possible its use on the proposed land bin. which. if enacted as 1t is being drawn will abolish the present land commission Of course if no 1 emergency is on the land bill the ref ! erendum might be applied and the land commission saved The gover- nor. with political foresight, is there fore establishing strict rules for the use of the emergency. In the mean time however. and before the land bin gets to the governor the mine tax bill will have reached him and it's . emergency clause will have had to pass his scrutiny
 In the house Langford introduced bill to create superyisoral districts in all counties, and the state fair de. 1 ficiency appropriation was passed

Where to Economic.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Are the people going to give to the
politicians Of New York City the power to
reduce the salaries Of our school teachers
That is what the Cromwell bill, now before
the Senate at Albany, will do if it is passed
It gives the New York aldermen the power to
fix the salary of any teacher at any amount
hey please below the salaries they are now
receiving. For whose benefit is this most
radical change 20 be made Not the teachers,
not the pupils. The sponsors for this bill, I
understand claim economy as one of its
virtues Isn't it curious yhat whenever the
subject Of economy comes up the first places
suggested by men on which to practise this
economy are always the places where women
are largely employed? II is the more puz-
ling when we women hear so frequently
from our representatives in legislative halls
that the one thing that they prize above
everything else is chance 10 show their
"chivalry for the ladies'"
Now, II economy is needed in administer
nC the affairs Of New York City-and it is
greatly needed let US begin en- the perfectly
useless and wasteful expenses for which we
are so heavily taxed. For instance. less ma
hogany furniture, fewer gorgeous antique ink
stands, less expensive engraved stationery
elimination Of princely private bathrooms
fewer automobiles and chauffeurs for the pri-
vate use Of public employees, which latter ex-
1ense 20 the city is enormous. No mex
pcnsiye automobiles like Ford's for our en-
poyes, but $4,000 and $4,000 ones are re
quested. And last, but by no means least
et US reduce the number Of positions which
seem TO be made" in order that friends"
Of politicians may draw salaries while they
are working for others and receiving salary
therefor Let us begir 10 economic along
these lines. and not by reducing the salaries
Of women and girls. There will be a little
more justice in that, and women. strange a
- may seem, prefer justice to "chvalry"
every time. NORA CANTWELL.

Bismarck's Centenary.

To-day is the centenary Of Bismarck
birth. The anniversary will be celebrated
by Germans with much enthusiasm, but
most Of the old SAVIOR of the occasion has
gone out of il. Up to a year ago 1t was
still possible to think Of Germany as Bis
marck's Germany-the empire which he
created and which had run the course he
planned for it. The influences that under
mined his work had not then borne their
perfect fruit
Now. in the light of the war and the
diplomatic entanglements which led up to
it, the full extent of the breach between
the Bismarckian policies and traditions
and those which have ruled in Germany
in the last two decades has been laid bare.
The craftsmanship of these latter days has
not been his craftsmanship. The mighty
coalition raised up against Germany Is the
GROWING evidence that his teachings were
forgotten by those who were trying to
fill his shoes. His wisdom in playing off
possible antagonists one against the other
gave way to the unwise Fan-GermaniStic
policy of irritation and aggression which
has now left Germany struggling inside
an iron ring.
Bismarck used Austria Hungary to play
his own game. But in recent years Ger
many has played the game Of her weaker
ally and now stands TO be dragged down
in Austria-Hungary's ruin. The great
Chancellor valued Russia's friendship
more than he did an extension Of AustrO-
Hungarian sovereignty in the Balkans. He
would never have made the fatal blunder
of letting Vienna break the Berlin treaty
by annexing Bosnia and Herzegovina. Out
of that fateful piece Of aggression came
the complete alienation Of Russia and the
creation Of the Triple Entente. The post
Bismarckans cut out a military task for
Germany for which the empire, powerful
as it is, was not equal-as the great test
of war has proved.
Bismarck looms greater to-day among
Germanys statesmen than ever before.
But it is little consolation to Germans
celebrating his centenary to realize that
that greatness has been bitterly accentu-
ated by the blunders Of those who have
forced the empire into the desperate pre-
dicament in which it finds itself to-day.

MIR. LIE ROUX'S VIEWS
Not Correctly Reported Concerning
American Women.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: To thank the American woman for her
inestimab.e services to France since the be
ginning Of the war is, in part, the mission
which has brought me to this country
In an interview which gave to one Of the
women reporters OF The Tribune I expressed,
as fully as possible, the profound gratitude
we feel at the present hour for the gsneros-
ity the women Of your country have shown
us. II has been a generosity Of money, money
in sums which have touched and astounded US,
and it has been a generosity Of heart and Of
spirit which we never shall forget.
The reporter whom YOU sent TO me did not
in the interview which you published quote
one Of the remarks which made during a
conversation that lasted over an hour. On
the contrary, Of all you published not one
word was spoken by me. We did not at any
moment breach the subiec, OF the American
woman in America bu. merely that Of the
American women in France since the begin
ming Of the war
Had your reporter questioned me as 20 my
opinion about her fellow sisters 1 would have
been glad TO tell her what ! feci; that your
women are leading the civilization Of the
world to-day. Our women have too long fol
lowed the doctrine of sacrifice; yours are
following the doctrine Of achievement.
During the last few years have spoken in
Brussels, in Hungary, In Bordeaux and IN
Paris many times on the American woman as
d citizen of the world / have said in my
lectures on this subject that the American
women have rendered services to their coun-
try which make their obtaining OF the vote
not privilege but natural recompense.
Do you suppose if | had had anything "un-
kind" TO say about Americans-as your re-
porter alleged | habitat my government,
my Minister of Foreign Affairs, would have
sent me here on my present mission?
Do you suppose if I had had any criti-
cism to make of the American womar-as

have chosen as subjer for the lecture ! am

Child Labor Under Suffrage.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In taking exception to an article in
The Tribune headed "The Spectacle Of Two
Million Child Workers in This Country
Thomas r. Dawley, jr., says that only 16l ,644,
or "a per cent of children under sixteen work
for wages.
According TO "The World Almanac" $780,
225, or 1874 per cent, of all children be-
tween the ages Of ten and fifteen are engaged
in ga!nful occupations.

tanned the following figures from the 1910

future reference under the headings of equal
and male suffrage stases:

In ten equal suffrage states children at

Miss Goldman Persona non Grata.

Apparently the authorities OF Union
Theological Seminary are opposed to the
presencc Of Emma Goldman WITHIN 'hei
portals on the ground not so much OF her
propaganda as of her personality III TINS
is the case it does them partial credit
For if any body of men needs TO know
"The Message Of Anarchism' 1t Is those
who later will be called upon TO minister
10 the spiritual needs alike OF rich and
poor, capitalist and wage Garner, conserva-
tive and radical They, least of all. must
shrink from the hot breath of revolution
any more than from poverty or disease
or the presence Of sin.
1--WE have some students here who think
they should know about all things, MI
Clinton Price. the treasurer, remarks, IN
explanation of the invitation extended to
Miss Goldman by the student body. This
is reassuring to those who would like to
see the Church relate itself more complete
" to contemporaneous life. Even Mr..
Price is half convinced, since he adds,
That may be right But he goes on
IF they wanted to know about Miss Gold
mans teachings they should have gone to
her lectures-not invited her here.'
If the students may go TO Emma Gold
man, why may they not bring her to them!
Is the Union Theological Seminary so
fragile an institution that the publicity
ensuing from her visit, that the rough con-
tact with her violent personality, would
stain it or injure it? In deploring the one
sidedness of such an attitude ones keenest
regret is for the good which respectful
audience in such a setting would have
done Emma Goldman. 1t looks now as if
the seminary authorities had let glorious
missionary opportunity slip by.

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: There are thousands OF honest. seri-
Gus coored citizens working nis.t and day
TO build up and preserve the amity al. com
ity between the whites and blacks in the
city of New York; and we do feel that the
film play "Thc Birth OF Nation" especially
he second half of it, unjustly imposes upon
our city, as well as our people, a revival
Of the hatred and race prcjudices OF the re-
construction period
The play Is not only an afront TO a large
minority opinion, but it is malicious, because
falsely depicts more than ten million peo-
pie as a race of rapists; and in this particu-
lar it tends toward the breach OF the peace
which the sound public policy OF our city
should not condone JOHN NJ. ROYAL.

Street Cars and the Board of Health.

Mr.. Shonts has done wisely in declaring
a desire "to obey all lawfully constituted
authorities Of the city and state and
accordingly coasenting to cooperate, at
least formally, H.n the Commissioner Of
Health in his effort to put stop TO the
iDtolerable overcrowding Of street cars.
Next week, therefore, the remedy will
be put TO a severe practical test on the
crowded lines Of Sixth Avenue and Eighth
Avenue That difficulties may arise is not
improbable. Some Of them are limited at
by Mr.. Shonts, who in his letter TO DR..
Goldwater observes that in some places,
notably in Sixth Avenue between Eighth
Street and Thirty-fourth Street, the com
pany is at present running as many cars
as possible. No one who has seen the
Sixth Avenue cars in the busy hours Of
the day will wonder if there is some muir
muring when the waiting crowds learn
that the cars may not carry passengers IN
excess of one and one-half times TIE seat
ing capacity. Mr.. Shonts evidently eX-
poets something more than mere mUrmur-
ing, for he insists that police assistance
will be absolutely necessary"
The decision of the Railways Company
not to use force seems quite correct. TIE
direction given to the conductors is "to re-
fuse to move cars when passengers board
them in excess of the limit prescribed" 1t
is probable that a considerable number Of
passengers will be diverted inevitably to
the elevated lines, but it remains to be
seen what will happen when the new order
is put to a severe test. The important
point is that the test will be made

From the Opposite Angle.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: With Italy on their side, will the pro-
ponents Of international honor continue 70

neutral country permission TO cross It and use
rms 20 enforce the request than to demand
the cessation Of territory from hard pressed

fails?

p bclated sense Of the duty she owes to neu-
trail Belgium provided always that she can

Christian Science and Diagnosis.

A letter from Mr.. Robert S. Ross, in
another column, contains some passages
which are clearly open to question. By
way of justifying his own opinion of med
ical skill he refers his critics to DR.. Cabot
of Boston, and Dr.. Murphy, of New York.
If either of them ever said that nearly
so per cent of medical diagnoses are erro-
neous" and biased on mere guesswork"
il would be proper to point TO the pas
sage But if their inquiries show that errors
il the proportion named were demonstrated
in a series of post-mcrtem findings, the
conclusion drawn is, Of course, absurd, if
only because the fact Of post-mortem ex-
animation is rresumptive evidence Of
doubt beforehand.
To ask any one so account for the
works of Christian Science which, with,
out diagnosis, seldom fail" is idle, since
the fact is exactly what is open to ques-
ton: if it were commonly admitted, there
would obviously be no quarrel with those
who profess TO cure leases diagnosed by
matera medlca as incurable"- materia
medica" standing presumably for medical
men in the Eddyite dialect
MIR. Ross is not very clear on the sub
ject Of antitoxin and vaccination, but in
SO far as it is possible TO draw a meaning
out Of what seems nonsensical it may be
gathered that the followers of Mrs Eddy
rarely die under Christian Science treat,
ment." This must mean either that ex.
pert advice is sought when serious illness
occurs in the Hundreds Of thousands Of
homes" which Mr.. Ross claims,
or that the followers of Christian Science
are for the most part immortal. If the
latter alternative can be established az

note with another kind, and redeem the loan
with still another? No, indeed; all three
obligations could be wiped out with one kind
of legal tender.
Thus il is with Christian Science treatment;
no matter what the type of the disease may
be. it can be destroyed by applying to 1t the
truth of being, as revealed in Science and
Heath with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary
Baker Eddy. God is omnipotent, everywhere
and at all times, not impotent on some occa-
sions and omnipotent on others. Did not the
Psa,mst sing of Him "Who forgiveth all
thine iniquties; who healeth all tiny dis
cases"2
The law, however, requires that cases OF
contagon and even suspicious cases, shall be
reported to the health authorities Christian
Scientists are law-abding peoples they are,
therefore, scrupulously careful 10 report such
cases and to obey all reasonable quarantine
and sanitary regulations. Diagnosis does not
necessarily imply treatment, however. and the
fact that failures under Christian Science
treatment children's cases included-are few
and far between, speaks volumes for this
method
As for our critics much-yaUnted antitoxin,
permit me to call his attention to the fact
chat more perfectly healthy children were
.acIiiccd TO this medical superstition by com
pulsory vaccination in New York State during
the year 1914 alone than died throughout the
entire United States under Christian Science
treatment during period of thirteen years,

York World.' ROBERT s. ROSS,
