TO THE SUPREME COURT.

As stated elsewhere in THE OASIS this week, there has been made up a case to test the validity of the recent election law providing for a general election in November, for presidential electors, state, county and precinct officers, and a tenn. porary injunction to restrain the secretary of state in issuing the necessary instructions for a pri. mary election has been dissolved in the Superior Court of Maricopa count, the case going to the Su- preme Court on appeal, where a speedy hearing and prompt deci- sion are anticipated.
 In dissolving the restraining order Judge Phillips expressed a doubt whether ID injunction is the proper proceeding, indicating a belief that the correct procedure would be against an incumbent of an office refusing to vacate in favor of his elected successors after the election. But that would put the state to all the great expense of an election, and to save that expense is the only real and valid reason for emitting an election in Novem. Der and letting those now in office stay until the first Monday in January, 1915. There has to be an election for congressman and presidentials electors any way, and why not an election for state and county officers? There have to be submitted also at least two constitu. tional amendments, and perhaps a referendum upon an enactment. It seems that there would be no saving of expense anyway. That question raised is a subterfuge And, as we'll put in the argument before Judge Phillips, while there is a conflict between two clauses oi the constitution, there is no pro. hibition in either against an elect. ion in November. In fact it was and is the plain intent'of the con.

FOUR SOLONS IN JAIL.
Members of New Mexico Legislature
Are Held for Bribery.

Albuquerque, N NJ, March 19.-Four
members of the New Mexico legislature
have been arrested in Santa Fe, charg-
ed with accepting brides to vote for
certain candidates for United States
senators, first vote on which viii be
taken by the legislature today. Brides
amounting to $500 each are said to
have been paid them.
The arrest of the legislators, all menu
bers of the house of representatives,
was effected by means of a ruse, and
came as a dramatic climax to dicker-
ings extending over several days, it is
alleged.
Those arrested were Representatives
Julian Trujillo and J. P. Lucero of Rio,
ARABIA county; Manuel Cordova and
Luis Montoya, of Taos county. They
are alleged to have been caught with
the money in their possession. The ar
rests were made by Territorial Mount
ed Policeman A. A. Sena, in a room;
at the Palace hotel in Santa Fe, where
the men met by appointment.
Immediately after their arrest the
four legislators were taken to the
county Jail. After their arrival there
they wrote their designations, which
will be presented to the house when it
meets today.
the trap to catch the men was laid
by Elfego Baca, of Albuquerque, one
of the managers of Judge Albert e.
Fall, one of the leading candidates for
United States senator, State Chairman
Venceslao Jaramillo, one of the Re
publican central committee, also men
toned for a senatorship; Joseph O.
Sena, clerk of the state supreme court,
and A. A. Sena, of the mounted police.
The men, it is said, had gone to
Manager Baca earlier in the day and
demanded $500 for their votes, agreeing
so the story goes, to deliver them to
Judge Fall. Immediately the proposal
was placed before Judge Fall and plans
were Their laid to catch the men.
The money was secured and the
men were told to meet Baca in room
in a hotel at 8 o'clock. Officer Sena,
Court Clerk Sena and Paramillo then
secreted themselves in the bath room
adjoining where they could see what
took place. AS soon as the legislators
has been handed the money they burst
into the room and the arrests follow

drives they have been having over the

a
reSentatiVe accompanied the train on
the first days trip through northeast

crowd was waiting for the arrival of
the train. The residents of the towns
as we'll as the farmers attended the
lectures on the cars and they were
told how to enforce their town ordin-
ances and making it possible to have
better streets.
The high school students were told
the advantages of social relationship
with good roads. The better travel in
the towns, the closer intercourse from
the country and the beauty of their
little cities.
After every lecture the speakers set
aside five minutes for questions. At
many stations it was necessary in order

why their county officers were not do |
