BAR TO SELF-GOVERNMENT

Hierarchy Would Revive, Writer
Asserts.

The danger, when it comes to self!
government for India, and every Anglo
Indian recognizes it, is that we may
put back into power the Brahmanical
hierarchy which, by all the wlles Of
prlestcraft, by organizing aboriginal
worship and blood sacrifices, by as
trology and miracles" has held the
lowlier races OF India enslaved, body
and soul, these three thousand years.
Even the English-speaking masters
of art in Calcutta university, after
their graduation, go back to temples
reeking with the blood Of bulls and
goats. and chant Vedic mantras be-
fore hldeous idols. Exactly so far does
their study Of Mill and Huxley enamel
pate them. And this, In fiat defiance
Of the fact that all the best of their
sacred books sternly condemn this evil
ambition and Its instruments, black
superstition and idolatry, the things
against which the Buddha made his
heroic protest. But long centuries ago,
the dark Brahmanical reaction drove
the Buddha's followers out Of India.
Nevertheless the British trustees Tor
the welfare Of India continue to do all
things in their power to advance the
natives Of that many-cOlored congeries
Of peoples along the path Of real lib

NEW YORK, July 10.-Cumulative indications of increasing monetary ease and additional evidence of general in dustrial revival were controlling fac tors in further irregular advance of the stock market today
 Early gains of ona to five points were partially impaired in the later dealings on extensive offerings, pre- sumably from professional sources.
 Initial rates for call leans were ' to 71a per cent against yesterdays open ing quotations of to 10, as low as 6 being quoted in the final hour, al though the ruling figure was seven per cent.
 The increase of slightly more than 600,000 tons in thrilled orders disclosed by the June statement of the United States Steel corporation marked the first gain since October of last year, when productions of iron and steel be- gan to develop reactionary tendencies.
 Coppers were further stimulated by purchases for foreign account, includ- ing the orient.
 Oils. motors and their specialties, equipments and the usual peace indus trials contributed to the fairly large turnover.

FLY n uTCHFIELD
 FOR BREAKFAST IN
 $. w C.PLANE TODAY

The Southwest Cotton company air plane piloted by Lieutenant o. P. Johnson, with Guy r. Hewitt, the com panys attorney. as the first passenger, will leave the fair ground this morning at o'clock and take the aviator and his passenger to Litchfiel6 for break fast. Todays will be the first com mercial airplane flight in the state, it is believed.
 Returning from Litchfield about S:30 o'clock the plane will pass over the city, circle the company office and drop the morning mail from the Litch- field plantation, and head for Good year. At Goodyear d landing will be made, the plane inspected by the Goodyear plantation force, many of whom are destined to ride in it before many moons, and will then return to the city.
 It is to be presumed that MT. Nevitt from his long legal experience, will issue an opinion for his clients as to the safety of this new type of travel ing-but in any event he will have a new and novel experience.
 Whether more than one trip will be made the first day has not been an- nounced but there is nothing to pre- vent making half a dozen round trips a day if the company business should demand, for the lack of roads of high quality will not bother this machine

FROM SIX TO ELEVEN

A national business magazine tells the story of success in the business life of an American woman. She began with a capital of s65 and now is worth hundreds of thousands.
 Nearly every American-made doll wears hair manufactured in this busi- ness woman's shop or by machines she invented
 Truly it is a remarkable story of remarkably successful woman. We admired the way she climbed to busi- ness success until we came to this paragraph:
 ''So she summoned some of her for mer women employees who had mar ried. Many of them found it neces- sary to earn extra money. Children and housework keep them at home during the day: but they eagerly re- sponded to a chance to work at night from 6 until H."
 And then this business womans success" didn't look like success to us
 It is hard to call it success when one thinks of the mothers who have to leave their homes, their babies after hard days housework, to work from to Il in a factory. It may be profit able-for the business woman. It is unprOltaple loT lne motneTS ana babies.
 We read on:
 Most of these women workers (speaking of the mothers who toll in her factory from 6 to ID are of for eign birth-chief1y Finnish, Bohemian and Slavic
 Now. then, let us ask ourselves this question:
 Has this practice of working foreign mothers in America from to II at night anything to do with the readi- ness of the foreign element in this country to arise in revolt at the behest of the agitator?

JURY CHARGES CRIME
 II MEXICAN LAD
Young Suspect Denies Con- nection with Killing-Un- shaken When Told Dying Man Had Accused Him Fail to Take the Other Suspect

Held on a coroner's warrant of ar rest with bond fixed at s30,000, Felip Solice known as Chomaeho, was re- manded to the custody of the sheriff yesterday after an inquest over Mar garito Avila, who was held up and murdered at the Norton ranch near Glendale early Wednesday morning.
 The jury returned a verdict stating as the cause of death gun shot wound inflicted by Felipe Solice, known as Chomacho, and John Doe Apodaca, who has not yet been captured by the officers. All of yesterday deputies were securing the distirct west of Arlington in search of the man who disappeared into the brush when his companion was taken into custody.
 Solice, who is a few months over IS years of age, came here from Mexico three years ago, according to his tes- timony. He denied all knowledge of Avila when questioned by Coroner Wheeler and his persistent denial of the man and the crime finally pro- voked the coroner into saying: What is the use of your sitting there saying you know nothing about this matter when people saw you?" To which the young Mexican replied: Bring on your people"
 Denies All Knowledge of'Crime
 Chomacho, when told that Avila on his death bed accused him of the mur- der. remained unshaken. nor would he admit any knowledge of the slain man. He said that he had been at Nortons ranch that day to see about a contract for picking cotton. but that his con

 When the officers arrested Cho- macho he was without a gun and it | is their opinion that he threw it in l the canal. He was wearing a hotsler at the time, accodring to Deputy Sher- | if Ernest Smith. who made the arrest 1 but later when searched in the jail il was missing. This, too, the officers | believe, he disposed of as he did the gun he is alleged to have had.

 Dr. George Broadway stated tha1 Avila had received two gun shot wounds, the one with fatal results be- ing at the edge of the ribs on the Jeff side at the lower edge of the stomach while the second shot grazed the shoul- der blade, the skin wound being>f0 ol 1 F inches in length. There was 2 wound on top of the head which the physician thought was caused by other 1 means than a bullet.
