THE IMMIGRATION COMMISSIONERS
The Law Is Sustained By Judge Sloan In q
 Test Case In Maricopa County

Judge sloan on Saturday last sus- tained the territorial law creating the office of county immigration commis- sioners by finding for the plaintiff in the case of Jordan vs. the board of su- pervisors of Maricopa county. Every principle of the plaintiff was upheld, but one contention was denied reducing the amount sued for by from s4OO to s60O.
 The amount of the plaintiffs claim was $l 200, involving two years servi- ces at $50 a month. Major Jordan was appointed commissioner two months be- fore the beginning of the salary for which he brought suit. At the end of each of those two months he presented his claim to the board of supervisors and it was disallowed. He brought suit before justice of the peace and ob- tained judgment. The case was ap- pealed to the district court and Judge Baker found for the defendant. The commissioners claims were afterward presented on two occasions and were disallowed. No further legal action was taken until last summer, when Judge Street and Attorneys General Frazier brought suit for the commis- sioner for so much of the salary as had not been sued for. In the meantime the commissioner withdrew the various claims which he had presented and pre- sented them again in the aggregate. The case was tried before Judge Sloan several months ago. as Judge Street was disqualified.
 There were three theories of the de- fense. The first was that the law was unconstitutional. The second was the matter was res adjudicata. having al. ready been passed upon in district court, and the third was that the plain- tiif had lost his rights under section 4Os ot the statutes regarding the presenta.

other than witpesses' and jurors fees and claims for salaries must be submit- ted within six months. The above men, tioned claims may be submitted any time within three years.
 Judge Sloan in the first place affirmed the right of the legislature to. create the office of immigration commissioner, his salary to be paid by the county to which he is appointed. As to the sec ond contention by the defense that the matter had already been adjudicated, Judge Sloan held that Judge Bakers decision could only affect the matter before him and that no part of the sal ary involved in the former suit had en- tered into the latter. Regarding the theory that the plaintiff had lost his rights by neglecting to present his claim within six months. the court de- cided that the matter did not come un- der that statute.
 But Judge Sloan decided that the plaintiff had forfeited part of his claim under section 4l5, which requires that when claim of any character has been presented and rejected suit must be begun within six months or it can not be maintained. Suit in this case had not been commenced within six months after a considerable part of this claim had been rejected. The judge said he believed, but was not sure that about half of it had lapsed. Just how much of it will be lost in this way can be determined by reference to the dates of proceedings in the supervisors office rejecting the claims. Attorney General Frazier said he did believe more than S4OO would be so lost. The board of su- pervisors was not in session yesterday. so that there was no indication as to whether or not an appeal would be ta- Ken from Judge Sloan's decision. The decision was delivered orally. Judge Sloan will probably present a written opinion within the next sixty days. Phpnix Republican.

DAVIS, who had publicly announced his
intention TO accompany Durrant upon

prisoner and his mother that Rev.
Father Lagan should be sent for. This
was done, and the priest at once
