SATURDAY, MAY 24, 1918

THE bill introduced by Senator Ashurst and which passed the sen- ate on Monday, providing for the holding of terms of the United States court in Phoenix. Globe, Tue son, Tombstone and Prescott, says the Globe Record, should meet with no opposition in the house, since it IS in the interest of economy, and would expedite the business of the court Holding all the sessions of the federal court at Phoenix as the law now directs, is great injustice to the people of other sections, com polling witnesses and jurors to travel hundreds of miles at heavy expense to themselves, and loss of time, and also entails large and needless ex- pense to the government. Litigants, too, would benefit by having court terms held in the cities named. The only persons inconvenienced by this arrangement would be the officers of the court, and the slight hardship that would be imposed on them is far outweighted by the reccommoda- tion of hundreds of other interested parties.
