 APPLIES ID ALL
Supreme Court Decides That Man May Be Manager for Company, and Yet Come Under Employers Liabii- ty Act.

' a decision which has mainly to do ~ith the defining of the words Employer" Employee and Work man, the supreme court yesterday de cided that A. E. Deyo, who was in jured while in the employe of the Ari- zona Grading and Constructor Con- pany, came under the Employers Lii ability Act, in spite of the fact that he was a superintendent, and not a con- mon laborer.
 Deyo, while in the employ of the construction company, had a misad- venture with shot of blasting powder which went off when not expected. He sued the company, in the superior court of Pima county, Judge William F. Cooper, presiding.
 The case was tried before a jury and after Deyo had rested his case, upon motion by the attorney for the con- struction company, the jury was in structed by the court to return a yer dict for the company, upon the ground that the plaintiff had failed to estab- fish his status as a workman but had shown himself to have been the gen. eral superintendent and manager of defendant corporation and that the ac- cident was not shown to have arisen out of or in the course of the labor, services or employment for which he was engaged by the defendant con- pany." The appeal was prosecuted from the order directing a verdict and from the judgment.
 The supreme court holds that man engaged to work for a company, no matter what his position,is in it's en- Hioy, and as such was the case the superior court of Pima county erred in ordering the jury to bring in a yer dict for the defendant. The case was reversed and remanded for new trial

HU5HEEE.3j GETS IN
 RAGE: As < " DRY'
Says He is Democrat But Cannot
 Stand For Governor Hunts Policies

PHOENIX, May 15-'Opposition to the red flag and enforcement of pro- hibition,' is the platform of Dr. H. A. Hughes, of Phoenix, who has prac- tically decided to run for governor as a prohibitionist this year.
 - have not decided definitely that will get into the race, but 1 am very much dissatisfied. with the present lineup in the Democratic and Re publican parties" said Dr. Hughes. Governor Hunt and George A. Ol ney, who are seeking the Democratic nomination for governor, are both wet So is Tom Campbell, whom the Republicans are almost sure to nominate. The Prohibition party is to have ticket in the field, but it will have absolutely no chance of success.
 Has No Other Course
 Where does that leave me, or any other man of my principles? I have fought for prohibition 25 years. For five years I was president of the Arizona division of the Anti-Saloon league. I spent time and money fighting the saloons and victory was achieved at a fearful price. Now neither of the old parties is offering as a candidate for governor man WuOLu d Con COuoSlOh- tiously support.
 what has Hunt done to enforce the prohibition law? Has he done what the governors of Colorado and Oregon did when their states went dry? No, he hasn't done a thing except, wherever possible, to make prohibition as obnoX- ious as possible, doubtless with view to changing public sentiment.
 Draws Line at Hunt
 T am a Democrat as well as a pro- hibitionist. In my time, have con- tributed as much to the support of the Democratic party as any man in Ari- zona of equal financial resources. I will support any man the Democratic party nominates for office, as long as he is honest and a real Democrat, but 7 can never support a Socialist who rides the Democratic party into power, and that is just what George w. P. Hunt has done.'
