JUDGES ACTIONS MAY
 AID BECKER's ESCAPE

If Lieutenant Becker, who melted the murder of Rosenthal, the gambler escapes the electric chair or other punishment for his part in that trage- dy, as now seems probable, he must give thanks to Judge Golf, before whom he was tried. The trial judge was apparently too wiling to convict As old and experienced a jurist mus, have known that his conduct in the trial would not pass the Supreme Court unchallenged, and, in some quarters, it may be suspected that he did not expect that it would do so. His manner toward counsel for Beck CT was overbearing and his denial O. the plain rights of the accused wer frequent and were generally accom- panied by a harshness that must have had an effect upon the jury.

TIE PROGRESSIVE PARTY |S
 HERE ID STAY, SAYS WILCOX

(By Geo. B. Wilcox, State Secretary PHOENIX, Mar. 2.-The progressive party is made up of about one third of the voting population of the United states, majority of whom have been dissatisfied with the management ot both old parties, for some years past! Many of the leaders of both the old parties, make the mistake of consider ing the new Progressive party a spor- adic affair; merely the result of failure to win their choice of a presidential candidate, in 1912. Such is not the case. The theft of the nomination at Chicago merely precipitated the di- vorce proceedings.
 Progressives believe, absolutely, in every plank of their platform. They are pleased whenever they see one of their measures enacted into law; at the same time they are amused at the shallowness of the old party leaders in their belief, that these spasmodlc efforts on their part, will result in the weaning away of the progressive vot- CT from the party he has helped to organize.
 The Progressive voters, made up of the men who wore the blue, as well as of their good friends who wore the grey, and principally of the decen- dants of each, left the old parties after giving the matter due consider ation in both of them, that nothing but a clean house, from cellar to roof, would suffice. So we built a new structure along progressive, 'up-to-date lines. The foundation of this struc- ture is of material that is warranted to last as long as the Pyramids Of Egypt. The structure itself, is made of those concrete and fundamental principles which have weathered the storms and assaults of the ages.
 "The Golden Rule," and "A Square Deal," are the slogans of our party.
 We Progressives do not believe that we are absolutely perfect; that we can do no wrong; and that if we once get into power this United States of America will become one vast. second edition of the Garden of Eden; but we do not believe that when the prin- ciples of good government, for winch we, contend are generally adopted, this will be a much better country for the average citizen to live in, than 1t is today
 We shall be glad to welcome any honest voter to our ranks who feels as we do about these matters, but as for going back to either of the old part ies, no real progressive who knows why he joined the Progressive party dreams of such a thing. Our latch string is out! There is room in our ranks for all Progresives go ahead, never turn back.

 "The Interstate Commerce Commis sion has been bolstered up for years as a great regulative body. Now we discover that the New Haven Rali road has been footed, the back of the Union Pacific broken, the Frisco run into the ground, and other roads were treated in similar fashion. These old parties have not delivered the goods
 "A great deal will be said during this campaign by the Progressives concerning the exemption of labor unions from the scope of the Sher- man antitrust law. For years I have been contending that there is no more sense in prosecuting a trades union than in prosecuting the Knights of Pythias as a trust. Both are asso- citations for the social betterment of their members. The old parties are pussy-footing all around the question afraid to take a stand"

LESS IRRIGATION AND
 MORE CULTIVATION

Less irrigation and more cultiva-
 tion," is the proven result of many experiments and investigations in IT, rigated sections of the country. By keeping the soil loose, cultivating af- ter every irrigation, much moisture can be retained in the soil that other wise will evaporate from the surface and be lost Even young alfalfa and grain crops may be cultivated by us ing a weeder or a spiketOoth harrow with the teeth set backwards. A few weeks ago Prof. Stanley F. Morse, Agriculturist of the Arizona Agricui- tural Experiment Station found field of drilled alfalfa about -1A inches high which had been irrigated two weeks previously, the soil having dried very hard. At his suggestion, a disk harrow, we'll weighter, was run over the field twice in opposite direc- tions with the disks set straight; that was followed by a spiketooth harrow having one tooth slanting backward which was run in both directions also. A fairly good mulch was secured that could not but help the the alfalfa; scarcely one per cent of the plants were destroyed by this operation Of course this field should have been cul- tivated with a spiketooth harrow asI soon as possible after irrigating. per cent of the water or used may frequently be saved by judicious cultivation.
