MAY ASK FIELDER TO DECIDE
ON BEEKMAN'S APPOINTMENT
Law Says He Cannot Accept
Other Salary Until Term as
AssembIynan Expires.
Special to the Evening star.

TRENTON, Dec. 4-The legality of
Azariah NJ. Beekman. of Somerset
county, serving as legislative advisor
and bill examiner. to which he was
recently appointed, is being ques.-
toned by lawyers throughout the
State. The matter may go before
Governor Fielder for decision.
Mr.. Beekman was a member of the
1913 Legislature, and as such was
elected until the second Tuesday Of
next January. The law under which
Mr.. Beekman was appointed to his
new position provides that the in
cumbent shall begin his duties De-
cember 1. Before his appo' ointment,
which was made last Tuesday, he re-
signed as a member of the Legisla-
ture.
The State constitution says" Mem
bers of the Senate and General As
sembly shall receive annually the sum
of five hundred dollars during the time
for which they shall have been elected
and while they shall hold their office,
and no other allowance or emolument,
directly or indirectly, for any purpose
whatever"
Beekman's term, it is argued, does
not expire until the new Legislature
takes office and. therefore, he is not
entitled to receive any other allow
ance or emolument, directly or indi-
rectly," during the time for which he
was elected The fact of his having
rendered his resignation from the 1914
Legislature, it is asserted, does not
help matters in the least. The con-
stitution says he must not accept any
money from the State other than his
salary as legislator during the time
for which he was elected it is point
ed out.
If Beekman decides not to take Of
flee until after the new Legislature
comes inland if the encouragement
does not appoint a man to the place
in his stead--it is claimed the after

Prince and Futile is the firm name 14 West Adams their location. Both members of the firm are well and favorably known here. both have had great deal of sue cessful experience in real estate and their experience coupled with thelr present realty holdings and strong fi- nanciaI backing gives them exceptional advantages in this field
 Herbert $. Prince has for over three years been manager of the city depart ment in the real estate office of Dwight B. Heard and since leaving that office recently has maintained a realty office in the Goodrich Block. His new part ner. Dr s D. Futile, is d brother-in- law of Louis Sands of Glendale, and has a beautiful ranch himself in that section. Dr. Futile has lived in the Salt River valley about six years, and like MT Prince has host of friends who will wish him well in his new venture. Recently he has visited Cali fornia. thinking possibly to locate there but the incompatible advantages of Phoenix and the Salt River valley were too attractive to be passed by and the final decision was to make this country his permanent home.

For years past it's favored project has been i the building of d home for it's older members who have been shorn of their prosperity in the battles of life, for elderly and homeless women who hold membership in the order and for the widows and children of Odd Fellows who have been robbed of their sus- taining support.

near future an institution more or less self supporting will be erected thereon. Inthis labor of love and foresight the women of the order have been no less ambitious than the men and both the Rebellahs and the subordinate lodges contribute Annually to this cause.
 The records are not available on short notice, from which to secure the facts of the first planting of Odd Eel loWship in the territory of Arizona. It is enough to know that in the spring of 1884 there were six lodges in the state, under the direct Jurisdiction of the sovereign grand lodge. the order of their instituting being in Prescott, Phoenix, Tucson, Florence, Tombstone, Globe
 The order was founded in 1919 in Baltimore, by Thomas Wildey and the 26th day of April of each returning year is the official anniversary of that event throughout the nation. In 1884 its celebration by the odd Fellows of Arizona was the occasion of the insti- tuting of the Arizona grand lodge by

And while this is an inn portant day because of that anni- versary, to Arizona members of the order are observing d double anni versary, for it was also thirty years ago today that the Arizona Grand Lodge was instituted. A brief history of the grand lodge can not fail to be of interest locally at this time The grand lodge held it's annual sessions in Phoenix the past week at which time the Grand En- campment of the Patriarchs Militant and the Rebekah Assembly were also in session. Reports of these meetings were printed in the Republican. In cluded herewith aye pictures of the grand lodge, the ereampment and the assembly taken especially for The Republican.

The fraternal work of the order well known throughout the nation, has been no less significant in this jurisdiction. indeed, by reason of it's geographical location in country much sought by the health seeker, it is probable that its ministrations have been more wide spread than in any other jurisdiction of like population. The hand of fra ternity and sometimes of unobigated charity has often been extended, while the pathWayt has been smoOthed for many and the cup of cold water con- stantly offered In earlier times. ere the advent of organized charity, the sustaining solace of the physician or the convenience of skilled nursing, the tenderest ministrations to the fevered brow, came from the promptings of the mystic fellowship There is no sur viving member of pioneer Oddfellow- ship in Arizona, who cannot recall many incidents of long and anxious night vigils by the bedside of brothers with whom they had no acquaintance
