BECKEP,s EXPENSE IN HIS CASE.

IT T is estimated that Beckers defense cost him at least $25OO0,
which is a conservative figure considering the fact that he

$500 a year the source of the thousands of dollars thus paid
I. NOT beyond conjecture. 1t is explained in the numerous bank

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Jan. al
The war is not over In Arisona.
The people have won their consu-
tuition, secured statehood and
elected progressive government
But there still remains that men,
ace--the federal judge, who can
by a stroke of the pen, wipe out
half the benefits of this constitu-
tion, and in spite of their dear
bought victories keep the people
in bondage to Big Business.
Big Business long ago laid Its
wires and got the promise that
THEIR kind of a mas should be
appointed. 1t is common knowl-
edge in Arizona that Richard
Sloan, the present governor, Is
slated for this judgeship by Presi-
dent Taft. Sloan has the rail
road mind" and the mining
mind"
This danger explains the sud
den demand for the advisory re-
call of federal judges" which at
tanned such popularity in the re-
