State Farms Doing We'll

To do some technical work on the farm at Prescott belonging to the experiment station of the university, A. M. McOmie pass ed,through Phoenix enroute to that point yesterday, says Sat urday's Arizona Democrat. MT. McOmie is connected with the experiment station and has charge of the work on the uni versity farms. While in the northern part of the state he will also go to the farm at Snow flake. Special work is being done and MT. McOmie will take several observations in regard to waterfall and temperatures while there.
 The two farms which will be visited on this trip are doing we'll according to reports sent into the station at various times. On the Prescott farm two men are doing the work and are man. aging to keep things moving in the agricultural way, but more are needed. Skilled farm help is scarce and it is on account of this that MT. McOmie is making the northern trip.
 When asked about the crop outlook in the northern part of the state MT. McOmie said that everything was good according to the reports which his men had been sending him from the diff ferent sections. Rainfall has been very good and the farmers are looking forward to big crops. The university farm near Pres colt is making experiments on the growing of frijole beans. MT. McOmie said that they did better than a half dozen others that he was experimenting with and they were the best in every respect as they sold we'll on the market and were always in de- mand.

BRAKEMAN MURDERED
 BY MEXICAN TRAMP

Edward E. Moore, a brake man on the Santa Fe between Winslow and Gallup, New Mexi- co. was shot through the heart and instantly killed. just as the train was entering the Gallup yards Wednesday morning.
 A young Mexican, about 20 years old, who gave the name of Luciano Lopez. was arrested at Wingate and confesses that he committed the crime. Lopez claims that he shot Moore be- cause Moore tried to take his gun away from him. The slayer was lodged in the county jail at Gallup. The murder was such a cold blooded affair that some fear has been expressed of a lynching.
 Moore was unmarried and about 25 years of age. He was a member of the Winslow lodge B. P. O. E. and of the Brother hood of Railway Trainmen. The will probably be taken to his old home in the east for burial.

NO ELECTION OF STATE
 AND COUNTY OFFICIALS

The state supreme court re-
 versed the decision of the super for court of Maricopa county and granted a permanent injunction against the secretary of state issuing notice of a state and county election this fall. The opinion of the court is exhaus- tive and holds that an election of state and county officers this fall is unconstitutional and that the election shall take place in 1914. At the conclusion ot it's findings the court says:
 The question presented being one of power and not of policy, we are unable to arrive at any other conclusion than that the proposed action of the secretary of state, to prepare and trans init to the board of supervisors of several counties of the state, a notice in writing designating state, counnty, and precinct officers as officers for which candidates are to be nominated at primary election, which such candidates so nominated are to be voted for at an election to be be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1912, is illegal and without auth ority of law.
 To assert the high prerogative of the state in this behalf by one of it's officers without lawful authority so to do would un- .doubtedly, cause strife, promote discord and grave legal compli- cations, out of which would grow confusion. a multiplicity of law suits and contentious seri- ously embarrassing the due ad- ministration of the several de- parts of the state government, and unnecessary and illegal ex- pense incurred: Such conditions cannot be encouraged to arise even to gratify political ambi- tions, for ambition should be made of sterner stuff. We are not concerned with the ambi- tions of men. but only with the reason and justice of the law"
