HOGAN NOT HOLMAN
 ACCORDING TO LAW
Boston Family Restrained From Changing Name to That Peculiar
 to Old New England Stock.

Boston, Jan. 22.-The decision of a probate judge yesterday defeated the attempt of family named Hogan to change it's name. The case has been in the public eye for weeks. As serting that the name was a business, social and political detriment, the family petitioned leave to call it. self Romans, but after Robert Ho~ mans, lawyer, had interposed ob- jections, the family changed it's De- tion and asked for the name of Homan.
 Counsel for the society for the preservation of New England antiqui- ties and for the Homan family of Marblehead, entered appearance in opposition to this change, stating that the name was peculiar to old New England stock and used by other persons would be unjustified. On the witness stand members of the family gave their reasons in detail for desiring to drop he name of Hogan, one of them saying that the use of the name in song and story in connection with "Hogans alley" con- stituted an objection.
 The judge said he found the req sons given not sufficient to justify change.

 LOSS OF $250,0oo
Six Bremen Overcome By Smoke Narrow Escape From Another
 Great Condensation

Great Conflagration.r
 Salem, Mass, Jan. 22.-Salem was threatened with another conflagra- tion last night and it was only by the aid of apparatus from many sur rounding cities and towns that the flames were confined to the Leavitt block in the heart of the business district, at loss estimated at $25O,- 900.
 Chief William o. Arnold, and five firemen were overcome by smoke and cut by falling glass, but after receiv- ing treatment at the hospital were able to resume duty.
 In this block was the Essex house. the largest hotel in the city. The seventy-five guests were warned to leave in time to save most of their personal property. The block a four story structure, was located at the corner of Essex and St. Peter streets.
 The fire started in the basement of the Cobb, Bates & Yerxa grocery store. The loss was the greatest that the city has suffered since the con- f1agration of June 15, 1914, when more than $3,oo0,O00 worth of prop erty was destroyed.

PROSPERITY AFTER THE WAR

Much has been written about the devastating effects of the war and the enormous destructions Uf wealth Because of these things many persons are apprehensve that when peace comes the re- storation of things to their normal condition will so engross capital that general prosperity may be slow in returning. While there has been great deal of destruction, the devastated area is large relatively the of Europe If We include all Belgium and all that part of France lying north of the Aisne and east of the Mouse western devastated area, have only about 200o0 square miles. A liberal allowance for the devasta- ted in the field would oe 50 900 square miles. making total of 50000 square miles which, up to date, have felt the destructive hand war The population of the thus affected will not exceed 12,00O,000. Great, irreparable damage has been done, and much that been destroyed will never be replaced, but the loss of beautiful build ing will not of necessity have any permanent ef- feet upon the prosperity of the people, and the structure will not have be replaced immediately The restoration to normal individual prosperity of the people of the devastated will take long. The wounds of soon heal, although the sears may long remain It is unlikely that the dev- astated will be very greatly enlarged py fu- ture operations, that have available some measure of the work of necessary restoration
 It is to be hoped that the result of the war will be such that need will be felt replace the arms and munitions of that will have been extended in Il. and that the necessity for the tenance of great bodies of soldiers will longer be felt Reduction in armies and arnaments will tighten the burdens of the people and leave free the pursuits of peace. There is just much tual money in the world ever and the eXpen- ditures of the war have put in circulation sums that have been locked up against such a tingency We are strongly of the opinion that If peace is established upon anything like pcrman- ent basis and any other basis would be intoerabe all the factors for period of great prosperity will

The Protection of Witnesses

Suggestions for the procedure in the hearing o City, Manager Parish on certain charges sworn to hy three officials who had been dismissed rom tue service of the city have been submitted by counsel for the compainants to the commission Among them is the following remarkable one: "Counse' shall not be allowed harass or humliate wit nesses"
 Courts of law are supposed to afford rcason- able protection to witnesses, and Of course the commission which sits in the place of a court Tn this case should afford the witnesses of both sides all the protection they deserve. But frequently witnesses. and especially prosecuting witnesses place or have previously placed, themselves in such position that the court cannot save them from harassmen and humiliation without injustice to the other side The defendant in this case, the city manager should have right to show the mo- lives of the prosecuting witnesses and their ami mus He should have right to inquire into thelr credibility which may be determined in part oN their records. Such an inquiry might involve harassment and humiliation. Sometimes the cred bility reliability of witnesses are attacked by impeachment, and impeachment cannot be disso- ciated from the harassment and humiliation of the witness against whom it is directed.
 The cbmmission will do well in this to fol- low the recognized procedure of the courts and all low the fullest opportunity to get at the truth of the matter. Frequently the truth is more directly arrived at by the exposure of falsehood and per jury
 The city manager and such witnesses as he may bring in have nothing to conceal that it would be to their advantage to conceal. We can not conceive that they afraid of being harassed humilated If the witnesses of the other side have imagined that such hearing will n any way resemble pink tea, they likely to be sur prsed. We hope that nobody who takes the stand next Monday will be thin skinned

The Sequence of Events

In legislation. as in nearly everything else in this world, one thing leads to another Now, here IS Senator Martins bill proposing to abolish the state fair and distribute it's substance among the fourteen counties along with an appropriation for the maintenance of many county fairs Of course, Senator Martin does not expect his bill to pass Il by twist of fate it should appear that as many nine senators would vote for it, we are certain that Senator Martin himself would vote against it. lie doesn't the fair abolished He feels the same pride in it that every other broad minded Arizonian does.
 Something led to the introduction of this bill, and that Mr. McIain's bill for the promotion of the Tempe Normal school to the "State Normal College of Arizona. Nobody objected to the change of name; in fact. change of name was really pro poscd only original christening. The premier normal school curiously without name. No- body to have thought of that before It was known the Tempe Normal school just as dis ric school in the rural precincts may be called by common consent and without official proclamation the Blue Jay" school. the Frozen Hill' school, to distinguish it from other schools.
 But Mir. McLain, having given the normal school such an ambitious name, he farther and pro- posed that it should live up to it. He sought Co invest it with functions that would bring it into direct competition with the University of Arizona and would divide with the university certain granted lands and other emoluments that now appertain solely to the university.
 The university is at Tucson, and Tucson is the home of Senator Martin. Hence, his proposition to abolish the state fair which is in the county inhab- tied by MT McLain. Again, it has been proved that thing leads another, and that life itself is nothing than series of concatenated events or philosopher has observed, just damned thing after another

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Stocks show ed an upward tendency in the early stages of the session, but sudden weakness of New York Central, which declined IA points. caused general Iunsettlement. The list closed with a heavy tone and numerous net losses The Central's precipitate decline was attributed to the proposed $100.000, ,000 six percent bond issue. There was q 1 further break of London Exchange to 1 the lowest quotations since October, l 1907, which ought to have helped the market. The decline was due to the extensive offering of bills against sup plies bought in this country by the bclligercnts.

inquiry propounded in your third qucs- tion is platter of material conse- quence to your office as auditor of the state"
 After quoting passages from the re- Vised statutes of Arizona pertaining to appontiVe officers. the attorney gen erals opinion states: ''I am, therefore, of the opinion that the officials above named. about which you inquire, are entitled during their incumbency, under present conditions, to the compensation provided by law and that a warrant therefor covering the period subsequent to the converting of the present legisla- turc. as referred to in your third in- quiry, is proper and legal. l can come to no other conclusion and believe that the courts would justify the claim of said de facto officers thereto"
 It was stated yesterday, although not officially. that Auditor Callaghan sent a letter to the secretary to the govcr- nor on February 6. stating that he had requested the secretary of state, for datt regarding the reappointment and confirmation of the officials above mentioned and that he had been unable to discover any reasons which would justify him under the law in approving claims for salaries and expenses made by these incumbents.
 Say Attempt to Club Hunt
 There were those who pointed out that the endeavor on the part of the state auditor to hold up salaries of the governors appointeeS was but little short of m attempt to force the gov ernor to name his appointeeS and send them to the senate for confirmation. There it was stated they could be held up, pending his approval of certain measures now before the legislature and which will undoubtedly be aGopted by that body.

and duties of the commission
 The legislature on the recommends tion of the appropriations committee rejected the bill to pay to Dr. w G. Randell $327.02 for services as physi- elan of the state prison during the absence by illness of the regular phy- sician. Chairman Stapiey said that the committee had ascertained that the regular physician had been paid for that service. The committee did not believe that it would be paid for twice
 After the reference of several bills to the committee of the whole the confirmation of the appointment of (. E. Mills to be fair commissioner was favorably reported.
 The Committee of the Whole.
 A favorable report was made by the committee of the whole on the bill amending the law with reference to the registra tion of births and deaths. The amendment consists in d prOvi- sion for the appointment of justices of the peace and notaries public as reg istrars and allows nominal fees for their services The importance of the bill was pointed out by Dr Bacon. who said that it was desirable that Arizona be included in the registra- ton area, but that could not be done until reliable registration reports were
 
 to be transmitted to the national au- thorities.
 Another matter before the commit tee was the substitute for a senate bill for the amendment of the laws i with respect to court costs. The orig inal bill provided that juror fees should he included and must be paid by li,iGants in advance It appeared though that that would work a hard l. ship upon poor persons, so sgbsti- ute was brought in requiring that the fees for the jury should be put up at the time of the rendition of the judgment but that the court would be invested with discretion to remit the fees A bill increasing the salaries of officers of the class of the county of Coconino was passed on third reading Ii was announced that the house county seat removal bill would be given third reading on Thursday morning.
