Judge A. c. Baker.

Clean officials make clean politics and clean politics make clean govern menls. Appropos this truism it is to be regretted that Arizona is not fay ored with more officials of the Judge Baker stamp. Here is man that is man. A courteous gentleman, a profound student and an able ex- ponent of his profession, he is a man whose personal characteristics shed honor to the position he holds. Ger talnly he Is very popular here for he has saved the taxpayers of this city and county many thousands Of dollars. As an example of his promptness this last term of Court may be cited He arrived here and opened Court Mon day morning. IL remained in session just two days dunng which time a mass of business was disposed of. Whatever he may be in other places and we say now and for all time that we do not believe the false, foul slan- derOus charges that have been brought against him, he has ever been an efficient and business like official in this county and for this and his many admirable characteristics the people hereabOuts admire him.

 Last Monday was 10 have been the day for the sale of the Gila Bend canal but at the last hour Saturday an ap- plication for supersedeS was filed by the original owners. With this there was also filed an application for an injunction and stay of sale. Before Judge Rouse of Tucson an appeal bond of $S0,000 was filed and the whole matter taken to the United States Supreme Court. This will probably be the last of this case for the next five yeas, during which time the finest canal enterprise and some of the best land in Arizona will be allowed to go to waste. This is to be regretted, for had it been sold the purchasers would doubtless have ina mediately taken steps 10 makg their investment pay.
