course of the day, however, without result.
 Repeating a statement he had made before that the members had been de- nied an opportunity to know what the appropriations committee was doing, Chairman Powers rose white and ang- ry. and said in effect that if he were not scrupulous in the use of language or if he was less polite he would say that the gentleman from Greenlee was a liar "Oh sit down" urged MT. ChristY.
 There was some objection to the items for the rate expert of the com mission and the rate clerk. But when they had been explained by MT. Johns of the committee they were passed.
 MT. Graham started a fight against the provision of s4O,00O for the ex- penses of the commission for the next two years and a motion to amend by reducing this item to S25,000 failed. MT. Christy wanted to know what relation the total expenses of the commission bore to the income No one knew. He said that it had been figured out in Texas and was 71z per cent He was told that it was unfair to make com parison between Texas and Arizona.
  as where the work of the public ser vice commission was infinitely more onerous than that of the Arizona com mission. Our business" he said, lis that of a peanut stand but our over head charges are those of a wholesale house"
 Other items were passed over rapidly until that of the travelling expenses of the state bank examiner was reached when a motion to reduce the appropria- tion from s400O for two years to $3500 was adopted That was the only re- duction effected in the course of the day.
 The item providing the salary of the governor sfO0O a year was reached at noon and was rassed without objection. After noon the item of the salary of the governors secretary was taken up and from that time until the committee rose there was more or less confusion The salary of the secretary had been fixed at S2f00 a year. That is the amount fixed by a previous statute but the secretary since statehood had been allowed to be s3000 year MT Bris- COG asked why it had been reduced and in his motion it was raised to s3,000 The opponents of the motion said that they would demand a roll call in the house on this action.
 Every subsequent item for the of flee of the governor was made the object of an attack. The next one was the item for clerical assistance. S10,000 for the next two years The last appropriation bill carried $6,000 in that item and the house bill 16S of the regular session, sS,000 but it was allowed to stand on the ground that the business of the governors office was increasing. Next came the item for contingent expenses for the gov ernor's office. $S.000 for the next two t,years. That was s5,10O two years ago and $6.300 in house bill 16S.
