HOUSE WORKS ON
APPROPRIATIONS

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb 9.-The ses-
the stormiest that have yet been en-
countered in the present legislature.
Walton of Maricopa in discussing GER
tain provisions of the general appro-
priations bill in the committee of the
whole accused the appropriations COM
mittee of bad faith in obtaining their
alleged information upon which the
bill was made up. This was holly re-
sented by Richardson of Pima in
charge of the bill on the floor. Re
marks folowe thick and fast from the
various adherents until one of the
members moved that the committee
rise and report progress. objection to
this was raised by Peterson of Graham
who insisted that the committee
should report no progress" but any
consider the appropriations bill today
and so rose and passed three bills by
way of variety One of these is the
Abatement law, introduced by Lines of
Graham, and which makes mandatory
upon officers of the law to suppress,
confiscate property, and do those other
things provided by similar statute in
California to eradicate the red, light
district evil from town and cities. The
10 Tn 70
manner the anti cigarette bill prohib-
iting the sale of tobacco and cigarettes
to minors was passed by vote of %
to IL. Another bill defining offenses
against morals was passed unani-
mously
The morning session was taken up
largely in routine business although
there were a number of communica-
lions read from the State Federation
of Woman's clubs endorsing the bills
by Mrs. O'Neill of Maricopa increasing
the age Of marriage to 10 in men and
dealing with this particular question.
that have been introduced by the lady
member from Maricopa. Among the
new bills introduced was one by Rep
resentative Wiltbank of Apache county
providing for a monument to mark the
spot where the territorial government
of Arizona was organized; one by
FAIRIES of ella providing for an addi-
ton to the capitol building; one for the
burial Of INDECENT veterans of the wars
of the United States; one by Davis Of
Pinal providing penalties for drawing
checks on banks when the drawer has
no funds, one by Mrs. O'Neill providing
for a state library commission with an
appropriation of $4,000 and yet an
Eother by the same member providing
for library tax.

ACCIDENT PREVENTION
SCORE BOARD

An interesting and novel plan for
stimulating interest in the safety first
movement is used at the plant of the
Dodge Mfg. Co., Mishawaka, Ind. 1t
foremen as to which shall make the
best monthly and annual showing from
safety viewpoint, and it's outstand-
ing feature is a score board "a feet
long, standing just inside the main
gate of the factory, on which are
shown the departments foremen, per-
centage for month and year, and rank
of the various competing divisions. The
starting point is 1000, both for year
lied according to it's accidents, minor
accidents of less than one days alb
sence not being considered. Each days
absence bears a percentage charge in
proportion to the total number of man
days" per month per division
The use of this scoreboard has re-
suited in the fostering of great interest
among individual employees and fore
men. Department loyalty has shown
itself to be the foundation upon which
the whole plan rests. Although it was
originated for the use Of an Industrial
concern, there seems to be no good
reason why it could not be applied to
mine, mill and smelter organizations.

WAS
A W|NDAY DAY
IN THE HOUSE

PIOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 9-The request
of the late Henry w. Brady that "the
voice of the orator may be heard in the
land was needed in large part in the
house of representatives here today,
oratory occupying the greater part of
the days proceedings. Fruitful sub
jects for the facile word of orator were
abundant for the subjects of considera-
ton were Marriage and Divorce" and
white Slave Traffic" The whole
days proceedings assumed at time diff
ferent phases on account of the dis
tinct nature of the bills before the
distinguished body Early in the morn
ing Baxter's bill providing that no di-
vorce should be legal until it has stood
for six months, provided of course
that 1t was one that the usual proceed
ure of notice by publication" was fol-
lowed. The house jumped on this on
several grounds, one being that it did
not safeguard the marriage tie, nor add
to the sanctity of marriage nor make
marriage any easier, nor encourage it.
Another was that it did no more than
the present law to provide for the an
nulment of judgment in cases where
divorce had been procured by fraud,
chicanery or deceit. Finally it was
shown that the present statutes pro-
vide that judge may set aside any
judgment within year, where the in
tention of the laws compliance had not
been followed. Another measure that
received consideration was Baxter's bill
providing that five days notice should
be posted before a marriage. license
could be granted. This was jumped on
in the same manner Then Ruther-
fords bill from the senate providing for
punishment for those who offend
against the public morals was passed
through the committee without reading.
Several lesser laws calling for change
in the procedure in certain legal cases
were indefinitely postponed. When

This request was denied. Lines in an
impassioned speech called upon the
members of the house to protect the

showed by reference to the Illinois Vice
Commission report to what end this
traffic has gone. Johns wanted to

TO REDUCE
PAPACO GRANT

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 9.-Reduction
of the Papago reservation of $4,000
acres recently created in Pima county
has been agreed upon by the secretary
of the interior, and the manner and ex-
tent in which the reserve shall be re-
duced is to be determined by the de-
partment of Indian Affairs working
with the county engineer of Pima coun-
ty as soon as possible according to
State Land Commissioner w. A. Moeur
who has just returned from Washing
ton where he attended a hearing on the
question Of reducing the reservation.
In spite of the fact that commercial or
ganizations of Tucson sent a large
amount of evidence in favor of the pro-
posed reductions it was vigorously op-
posed by the commissioner of Indian
Affairs, who offered a great deal of
evidence on his side, and while some
reduction was granted it will prob
ably not be to the extent desired by
IuO ClllZGIlS Ol 11II1d county.
Lands withdrawn from survey at the
request of the state located in the tract
before the reservation was created, will
not be returned, nor has the state any
preferential right to such Withdrawals
according to Commissioner Moeur So
far as the state lands were concerned
or the states rights within the tract
now included by the reservation, there
will be no reimbursement of the state
for such land Withdrawals, in his
opinion. Roads may be established
acros the reservation, however, and the
in his assurance of road from Tucson
to Ajo across the reservation, and it is
probable that strip of lard half a mile
wide will b withdrawn from the reser-
walton for that purpose.
Regarding the Parker Indian reser-
walton and the possible opening of that
tract Of land by the government, Com
missioner Moeur found the Arizona
delegation in congress working hard
for some such action. The reservation
can only be opened by congressional
enactment, and the land would be sold
to private individuals by the govern
ment. In this way the state would not
have any opportunity to acquire any
of the land, but would benefit by the
opening of the district and it's settle
ment and cultivation by farmers.

ARIZONA WILL ANSWER

IF a break comes with Germany, and
the United States is thrust into the
world war, Arizona, the Baby State,
will be the first to answer the call to
arms, says the Tucson Citizen. Just
as in 1898, the territorial troops were
prompt with their response to the ap-
peal from the White House, now, the
Estate which put forty eight stars in
the u. S. A." is ready and anxious to
do all it can to preserve the integrity
Of the nation.
The officers Of the Arizona National
guard won great honor and took a peril
Gus place in the war with Spain, and
now her sons are anxious to rally to
the support of whoever takes the lead
in organizing the forces. There are
1900 men needed to bring the national
guard up to war strength, but SO con-
fident are the officers that this will be
done readily that they are already
talking Of overflow organizations which
will be sent to the front.
According to Associated Press dis
patches, Captain John G. Greenway of
the famous Rough Riders has again
offered to lay down the management
of a great mining company to serve his
country with the same zeal with which
he served nearly twenty years ago.
Governor Campbell also has received
an offer from J p Denman of Mohave
county of full war strength, well
trained company which months ago be-
gan putting itself in readiness for even
Qualities in Mexico.
While it is earnestly hoped that the
worst will not come, the great Arizona
spirit is inspiring, and everybody must
commend the readiness of our citizens
to offer their lives for the support of
the U. S. flag No better soldiers went
against Spain than the Arizonians, and
in the ranks Of the Rough Riders were
the sons of the wealthy, fighting side
