PHOENIX, May 18.-There are
good indications that the legislature
will have completed its work by the
close of the present week. probably
Friday. The senate committee of the
whole finally dipsosed of the appropri-
alton bill today and ordered the same
made ready for second reading.
which should make possible its final
passage by the senate tomorrow and
its return to the house.
There is in the house a positive
lineup of twelve members, Pinckley,
Lines, Lee, Claypool, Cook, Farrell,
Briscoe, Edwards, Powers, Vaughn,
Francis and Sweeney, who will never
agree to accepting the bill as amend
ed by the senate, or for that matter
unless the cuts in salaries of officials
as made by the senate, are done away
with. Particularly is there a demand
| that the tax commission contingent
expense be restored.
In addition to finally disposing of
appropriation bill in committee whole,
the senate found time to pass a re-
solution expressing approval and con-
f1dence in President Wilson's hand
ling of international affairs. In the
senate there were two negative votes
to this proposal, which was made by
Riggs, Karns and Sims, not being sat
isfied with the Mexican plan. A SIM
liar resolution adopted in the house
was opposed by Reed.
AS finally agreed to, the senate
leaves the state school fund at two
hundred thousand dollars for two
years as fixed in the house bill, al
though this provision was strongly
opposed by Claridge.
The Pinal County Power Line urged
! by McMillen, was approved, carrying
fof
was Topped off the prison appropria-
tion for repairs. The northern Nor
NAL was given $4,000 as a building
fund and the university was given a
mining building, under the plan as
first proposed, but rejected by the
house, which provided that there
should be raised by subscription an
equivalent sum-
The house rejected the Leo Frank
clemency petition to the governor Of
Georgia by a vote of seventeen to
nine, and by the same vote refused to
petition for clemency of the state
death sentence convicts.
There is good Indication that tie
state board of pardons and PAROLES
will consent to delay of thirty days
in the cases of the men scheduled to
hang May %. Case has consented to
! it and Jones has indicated that If the
sentence of the court : rti'- a'si, 10
be carried out, he will not oppose the
delay.
The house today refused to adopt
resolution requesting that memorial
to the governor be prepared by the
committee on memorials to the eff
fect that tne executive include in his
cali for an extra session a provision
which would permit "t LEGISLATION
abclishing caI:tal punishment.

NEW PHASE OF DRY
LAW INVOLVED
Matter Rests Upon the Question as
To Whether the Dry Law Can Send
Man to the Penitentiary or Not.
New Phase

FLORENCE, May 12.- Embodying
a new test of the legality of one phase
of the Arizona prohibition law, comes
now a hearing upon the application
for a writ Of habeas corpus for Sam
uel Acosta, incarceraated in the state
prison here on commitment signed
by Judge w. A. O'Connor Of Santa
Cruz county.
Chief Justice H D. Ross Of the state
supreme court,passing upon the appli-
cation for a writ, to test whether or
not it is possible to sentence a man
to a felony penalty for an Offense
called a misdemeanor in the constitu-
tional amendment, made this writ re-
turnable in the superior court of Pi-
nal county, on May IL, and Judge Otis
J. Baughn heard the matter today and
took it under advisement.
| The case rests upon an interpreta-
tion of the clause which specifies that
bootlegging is misdemeanor, fixes
monetary penalty of from ten to
three hundred dollars, and then stip-
days to two years. Acosta, who plead
guilty to the offense of selling liquor,
was sentenced to a year and a day in
the state penitentiary and is now
serving that sentence. His attorneys,
Derry and Clarke of Florence, believe
that he has a chance at least to get
the sentence reduced to misdemeanor
proportions.
Attorneys here consulted last night
regarding the above dispatch were of
the opinion that a constitutional am
endment may fix any penalty for any
offense, even mixing misdemeanor and
felony offenses as the prohibition am
endment apparently does. In this re-
gard, the law is less liable to attack
at least successful attack-than if
based upon a legislative act.

The Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through
the house,
Not a creature was stirring not even mouse;
The stockings hung by the chimney with care
In hope that St. Nicholas would be there
The children nestled all snug in their beds
While visions of sugar-plums danced through their
heads
And Mamma in her kerchief and in my cap
Had just settled our brains for long winters nap,
When on the lawn arose such clater,
sprang from my bed to see what the matter
Away to the window flew like a fash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash
The the breast of the new-fallen
Gave Iustre of midday objects below;
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
With little old driver, so lively and quick
knew in a moment it must be St. Nick
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled and shouted and called them by
Nov Dasher! now, Dancerl now, Prancer! now,
Vixenl
On Comet! on Cupid on Donner and Blit4en
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now, dash away dash away, dash away alr
AS dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
When they with obstacle, mount to the sky,
So to the housetop the coursers they hew
With the sleigh full of toys and ST. Nicholas too.
And then in a twinkling heard the roof
The prancing and paving of each little hoof
AS drew IN my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney ST. Nicholas with bound.
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all furnished with ashes and
SCOT;
A bundle of toys he had flung his back.
And he looked like peddler just opening his pack.
His eyes how they twinkled his dmples how merry!
His cheeks we're like roses, his like cherry
His droll little mouth was drawn up like bow,
And the beard on his chin was white as the snow,
The stump of pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like wreath.
He had a broad face and little round belly,
That shook when he laughed like bowl full of jelly
He was chubby and plump-a right jolly old elf
And laughed when saw him in spite Of myself.
A wink of his eye and twist of his head
Soon gave to know had nothing to dread.
He spoke a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with jerk
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving nod, up the chimney he
He sprang to his sleigh to his team gave whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of thistle;
And heard him exclam ere he drove out of sight
Happy Christmas ALL and to all good night"
