B|METALl|SM MAY
Be The OUTCOME
POSSIBILITY NOT so VAGUE AS
SOME PEOPLE IN AUTHOR
ITY IMAGINE

The San Francisco Chronicle says
editorially:
There is reasonable ground for the
expectation that the money question
which so many supposed was perman-
emily settled by the United States
adopting the gold standard, will again
be reopened The rapid rise in the
price of silver is directing attention
to the possibility. and evidence is ac-
cumulating which points to the ad-
vance being, in part as least, influen-
ced by the belief that the demand for
great quantity OF basic money can
not be met by the present or pros
pective output of gold, and that a re
sort to bimetallism will become ne
cessary.
III this opinion gains ground the
attitude of the classes with divergent
interests will become a subject for
speculation 1t is not impossible that
the former opponents of bimetallism,
the so-called creditor class, may be
arrayed on the side or RECOMMENDATION
of silver, in which event ii is not like
ly that the contest, if precipitated
would be prolonged one

creditor could be counted upon to an
lagonize any movement which had for
its purpose the depreciation of the
value of the accepted legal tender
metal, or legislation tending to pre-
vent the troubles resulting from an in
adequate or contracting currency. hui
the circumstances are no longer or
binary. They have become abnormal
and threaten the creation of a condi
ton which will be full of menace te
creditors, who may be glad to accept
compromise which would promise tC

ed by an increase of the volume of me
tallic money available FOR the payment

obviously the annual production
(, of four hundred millions, even if il
can be maintained indefinitely, will
not come near to meeting require
ments, and struggle for gold will
follow which must inevitably result il
drying many nations nations into

worse.
1T is this latter possibility that con

The Acme of the Ridiculous

We have witnessed the coronation of the ridicu- istration add any frills to it to make it more ridiculous. Deaf and blind to the fact that is in progress between the United States and Mexico it is gropng for peace any On Saturday the state department issued a to Carranza demand ing disavowal of the attack upon American troops Carrzal after warning by the de facto government given a week before that American troops would be attacked in such circumstances surrounded the encounter at Carrza
 On Sunday the state department was presented note in reply from the de facto government, ing full responsibility for the action of the Mexican troops and reiterating that they acting under general orders from the Mexican department, transmitted to General Trevino in command of that of operations
 In the face of this reply which the administration regards "ss forma; avowal of deliberately hostile action against the forces of the United States now in Mexico and of the purpose to attack without provoca ton whenever they from their present position" the government with it's ruling passion negotiation unabated, calls upon Carranza to 'disavow" his "avowa," to make statement contrary to his plain statement which has just been made clearly and promptly. Carranza is told that the government of the United States expects early statement from your government to the of action it wishes

The state Red Cross organization is represented in Phoenix by the gover- nor, the official head of the state or ganization; by Dwight E. Heard, state treasurer and by H. E.

SUPREME COURT HOLDS CITY
 MANAGER REMOVAL WAS LEGAL

The supreme court yesterday af- firmed the judgment of the superior court of this county in sustaining the right of the city commission of Phoe- nix to remove former City Manager w. A. Parish. There were three as- siSnments of error as follows:
 That the court erred in not requiring the appellees to amend the return by including in it a certified copy of the transcript of the evidence taken before the commission.
 That the court erred in holding that the city commission did not exceed it's jurisdiction.
 That the court erred in it's refusal to examine the evidence taken at the hearing to see whether the appellees acted arbitrarily and without any evil dence or proof of cause for removal
 The decision of the supreme court holds that the commission exercised certain judicial functions and an inci- dent to the powers and duties confer red upon it and not as a judicial body and should not therefore be bound by hard and fast rules in exercising the power of removal
 In regard to the charter provision, requiring that all actions of the com mission shall be taken by resolution or ordinance, the court does not believe that applies to removal from office.
 As to the refusal of the lower court to order the return to the writ to be amended so as to include the tran script of the evidence, the supreme court finds that it was unnecessary for

NEW FIRE PUMP
 HAS ARRIVED

As handsome a piece of fire fighting apparatus as was ever constructed was revealed yesterday when G. N. Moshier, expert mechanician for the American La France Fire Engine company, with headquarters in San Francisco, opened the car in which was enclosed the new auto fire pump recently purchased by the city. The new machine, painted bright red and bearing the motto Phoenix Fire Department No. l." at tracted no end of attention as it was being unloaded and was taken through the streets to Central Fire Station.
 Some time tomorrow an exhaustive test of the new pump will be made. The machine was to be run out to the Grand canal in order that a demonstra- tion may be made of it's drafting qual- ities. Chief Wright and all the firemen are pleased with the new apparatus and feel that it will be valuable addi- tion to the fire fighting equipment of the Phoenix department. It was pur- chased through the local agency of Talbot x Hubbard for Sl0,000.
