The Arizona Republican is taking Pacific
steps to collect their names and ad
dresses and the length of years they
have spent In Arizona. It does not in
tend to file those names away In a
desk drawer, but It desires to have
them on hand for two definite puruoses.
The first Is that it may have an ac
curate record of the pioneers of the
state and one that Is as complete as
pqossible. The second is that the pro
posal has been made to collect the
names and addresses of the pioneers
and to bring them together early next
year in a grand re-union which Is de
slkned to be a, great "gthernr toseth

Who are the pioneers of Arizona?
Where are they living and what have
they observed of the change In the
Youngest State since the ray of the
stage coach, the Apache, the .43 with
the notches on the handle and the bur
ro with his pack-saddle supporting a
ck of flour and a shovel?
In real pioneers men who marked
"ut the path for civilization In the
Southwest, who entered the desert and
passed between unknown hills that
those who came after them might find
a pleastnt place In which to live, who
paid with hardship and suffering com
panionship with death for the privilege
of bequeathing peace and prosperity
to their children Arizona is the richest
of the states. More than this, many
of those who came to her 30 and 40 and
0 years ago are still living In the
state which they made possible.

corporation commission yesterday in
behalf of the company. Mr. Aller
based his arguments for the Increase
amounting to Bo cents per 100 feet of

taxes and Increased expense due to ex
pansion of, the working fund
Mr. Aller offered direct testimony all
morning while the afternoon was given
over to "cross examination of the wit
ness by "WV J. Huddle, rate expert en
gaged by the city of Phoenix to look
after the consumers' Interests, which
will be continued at 10:30 o'clock this
morning. While it was believed that
the hearing could be completed within
a short time, Mr. Huddle and J. E.
Nelson, assistant city attorney, asked
for a continuance that they might go
over the testimony in detail before
presenting their case.
We cannot say what we will go Into
when the case Is called tomorrow,'
said Mr. Nelson last evening. "Be
fore we outline our case we want to
go into the evidence offered by Mr.
Aller."
Discusses Depreciation
The first points taken up by Mr.
Aller were the matter of depreciation
of reserve and the matter of minimum
return on investment. Mr. Aller In
tills connection presented the test!
mony offered In a former case, the ap
plication of the Arizona Gas, Electric
Light and Power company for author
ity to increase Its allowable rate of
return and reserve charges. The-com
mission has not yet ruled on this ap
plication, but the decision, it Is under
stood, will govern the commissions
ruling in the present case,
The hearing was well advertised and
civic organizations sent representa
tives, while a number of gas consumers
also were present at the morning ses
sion, but the technicalities frightened
them away before the hearing was far
advanced
Mr. Huddle and Mr. Nelson appeared
for the city, C. M. Gandy for the at
torney general's office, and Ben Fer
guson for the corporation commission
The hearing was conducted by Amos A
Eetts, chairman of the commission, and
D. F. Johnson, member.
High Replacement Cost
Replacement cost sine "1915, when
the commission allowed the basis for
fixing rates, has greatly advanced,
stated Mr. Aller. The depreciation
cost, he saic was greater than the
amount set aside to meet it, and in
order to survive, the company was
making its application for an increase.

He urged that It was necessary to
grant a higher anowame rate oi re
turn In view of the fact that on ac
pount of its remoteness from large fl
nancial centers the cost of money is
irrfntfr than in the East. Mr. Aller
testified that the company had put lit
$800,000 in Phoenix in the past two
years, ana m tne next mreo jcaio

When a wife refuses to remain at

the comDanv of other men, her hus
band may spank her, Justice Charley
DeSales Wheeler yesterday decided,
and he dismissed a charge of aggra
vated assault against Leopoldo Galvan
preferred by h! wife, Antonia de
Galvan:
The charge against Galvan arose
from a severe beating he was alleged
to have given his wife several days
ago. At the hearing or tne case yes
terday Galvan said that he met his
wife about a month ago In a restaur
ant where she was a waitress. After
a courtship of three days, he said, they
were married. Several days later, he
said, he saw his wife with another
man in a picture show and, when they
came out, he said, he took them to the
police station. There, he said, the
police told her she must not go with
other men. A day or two later he
found his wife In the company of an
other man and took her home. There
he said he administered the Spanking
which caused his arrest.
