CAM PbELL WILL BE SEATED AS
 GOVERNOR
At Least It Looks That Way, and Judge Favors It After Consulting Law - Hunts Legal Efforts Fail.
(By Review Leased Wire)

PHOENIX, Dec. 19.-The guberna- torial contest has been temporarily abandoned in a struggle between Gov ernor Hunt and Thomas E. Campbell for the possession of the office of gov ernor on January l, the contest to be determined later. The only action talk en with reference to the contest was an application in supreme court by Eugene s. Ives. counsel for Governor Hunt, for a writ of prohibition re- training Judge Stanford, of the su- perior court, from interfering with the inspection of the ballots. The supreme court made no order and the applica- tion was then withdrawn.
 In superior court, MT. Ives asked for an injunction restraining the secre- tary of state from issuing a certificate of Election to Mir. Campbell. A de- murrer was sustained and an appeal was at once taken to the supreme court which set the matter for hearing on December 2S. The court, however, intimated that the demurrer would be sustained and said further that in its opinion, it was the duty of the secre. tary of state to make an official de- claration of the returns and that on such declaration MT. Campbell would be entitled to his seat on the first Mon day of January.

SENATE ID VOTE ON DRY ISSUE
 TODAY
Prohibitionists Are in High Hopes of Adding District of Columbia to Growing Ranks of Temperance.
By Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The way was cleared in the Senate today for a final vote On Senator Sheppard's bill for prohibition in the District of Co., lumbia and it will be put on passage tomorrow Friends of the measure ex- pect it to pass.
 The main fight came over Senator Underwood's amendment providing a referendum of the question to the dis trict residents. The amendment was beaten in committee of the whole thir- weight to thirty-eight. Senator Un- derwood gave notice that he would ask for a separate vote on it when the bill came up for final action.
 There is little chance that the tie can be broken by Vice President Marshall, since he is 10 leave Wash ington before the Senate convenes to- morrow.
 Senator Sheppard showed a dispo- sition to press for final vote tonight but there was evidence that any at tempt to do so would result in filli- buster and after much preliminary maneuvering the Senate went into ex- ecutive session and left the bill to take the ordinary course tomorrow.

the issues the gravest that have been attached to any conflict in which hu- marity was ever involved.
 Allies in Accord.
 The responsibilities of the new gov ernment have been suddenly accentu- ated by the declaration made by the German chancellor The statement made by him in the Reichstag has been followed by a note presented by the United States without note or comment The answer given by this government will be given in full ac- cord with all our allies.
 Naturally there has been inter- change of views. not upon the note, be- cause it has only recently arrived. but upon the speech which impelled it, and as the note itself is practically a re-predictiOn of a paraphrase of the speech. the matter of the note itself has been discussed informally between the allies. I am glad to be able to state that we each heartily and in- dependently arrived at identical con clusiOns.
 Frances Answer.
 "l am very glad that the first answer given to the statement of the German chancellor was given by France and Russia. They have the unquest.onable right to give the first answer to such an invitation. The enemy is still on their soil and their sacrifices have been the greater.
 The answer they have given has al ready appeared in the papers. and simply stand here to give clear and definite support to the statement they have already made.
 Any man or set of men who want only or without sufficient cause a pro- longed and terrible conflict like this would have on his soul q crime that oceans could Tot cleanse
 Must Finish Job.
 "On the other hand. il is usually true. that any man or set of men. who from sense Of weariness or despair. abandon the struggle without achiev- ing the high purposes for which we entered it. would be guilty of the cost Hest act of poltroonery ever perpetrat- ed by any statesman. l should like to quote the words of Abraham Lincoln under similar conditions.
