STATE PAPERS AS CAMPAIGN
DOCUMENTS

No American will quarrel with
the Administration for protesting
against any violation of American
rights, important or unimportant, by
any belligerent, big or little.
But It must strike every Ameri-
can as extraordinary that in the
matter Of the detention Of mails by
the allies our State Department
should have used such strong Ian
guage, should have preserved none
Of the forms Of even pretended cour-
tesy, when for so many many
months, in the matte, Of the whole
sale slaughter of American citizens
by submarines, our Government was
SO gentle and charitable, SO superla-
lively polite, 80 mealy-mouthed that,
far from ever speaking a rude word
to those guilty Of the submarine
atrocities it delighted. when struck
on one side Of its face by the mailed
fist, to turn the other cheek.
The reason is as plain as the diff
ference between the two issues. For
more than whole year of the sub
marine controversy, before Berlin
decided to modify the Won Tirpitz
policy anyhow, the situation was so
tense, the Prussian militarists were
SO desperate, that our State Depart
ment was careful not to speak q
harsh word even about cold-blooded
murder, lest we might be called upon
to back It up.
| But there is no chance on earth
that we are going to be invited to
blows with the allies over the ques-
ton of mail bags. The Administra-
ton knows there is none. 1t knows
that war over this question, which
must resolve itself down to a mere
matter Of money compensation to be
paid for money damage sustained
through delayed mails, would be too
preposterous for Great Britain or
France, much less tie United States,
ever to consider. And so our State
Department writes a note on the
subject, which in temper and tone
is not unlike the peremptory, insult
ing message which Austria sent to
Serbia to plunge all Europe into a
gulf Of blood.
Why should the Administration, 50
meek and sweet-spoken through all
the months of letter writing about
the submarine murders, become all
of sudden so violent about the mail
mischief?
Well, a national political campaign
is just now beginning in the United
States. In a few days the conven'
lions will be on. Then the contest
for the election will be in full swing
The note to the allies, rough and
truculent as it is with its fiat dec.
laration that we will not tolerate
interference with mails, and that
only a radical change in the policy
of holding up these mails will "sat
isfy" the United States Government
will do no harm anywhere. But il
may be passed of in this part Of tn,
world as a pretty slick campaign
document.

ARIZONA'S SUPREME
 COURT.

When the framers of Ari- zona's constitution consider ed the question of the courts of our state, they provided that the names of all candi- dates for either the supreme or the superior courts should have their names placed on
 the regular ballot in alpha betical order without any par tisan or other designation ex- cept the title of the office. '
 Here is a provision in regard to our courts the intent ot which is that the courts shall be non-partisan. The first state legislature ignored this intent entirely when they provided that candidates for either the supreme or the su- perior courts must be nomi- mated in the party primaries.
 The supreme court Of this state ought to be non-partl- san. That it has not been non-partisan but has been
Arizona sentinel., 1916-09-21

wholly partisan and Demo cratic is known to all the peo- pie of Arizona. The voters of this state will be called upon in November to say whether they mean to have the supreme court of this state really non-partisan, in accord with the intent of the constitution, or whether they intend to keep the court solid ly Democratic and intensely partisan.
 Perhaps few voters realize the importance of the su- preme court in this state. The term is for six years as against two years for the governor. No situation can arise that cannot be gotten into court in some sort of proceeding, and the supreme court has the last say" Hence we main tain it is of the utmost inn portance to the people of this state that this high office be properly filled by the election of a square, efficient judge, regardless of politics.

Fortunate it is, for the peo- pie of this state, and doubly fortunate it is for the party that the Republicans, with the aid of a considerable ar ray of Democrats, were g
 to induce Judge Otis ]. lBaughn of the superior court of Pinal county, who is we'll known in Yuma to enter the race for the supreme court. Judge Baughn was urged to run, not only because he will bring to the supreme court the highest type of a vigorous clean, able jurist, but because he will give to the court that flavor of non-partisanship which was the intent of the people when they adopted arizona's Constitution.
 No Democrat will have any reason for refusing to sup port Judge Baughn for the supreme court on November 7th. The Democrats were in the majority in the conven- tion which drafted the conSti- tuition, and hence every Dem ocrat is committed to the non- partisan idea regarding the judiciary. If he is true to his party he will make good his pretensions by voting for | Judge Baughn, thus making the supreme court really non- partisan. He can do this without scratching" his tic ket, as the judges are at the top of the ballot and are not in the party columns.
 Judge Baughn is square and able judge. That he is we'll thought of at home is proven by the following state ment which appeared in a re- cent article in the Casa Grande Dispatch, a Demo cratic paper:
 Judge Baughn has an ex- cellent record in Pinal coun- ty. He is spoken Of most highly by both Democrats and Republicans. All admit that he is square absolutely, and that he has made an able and splendid judge"
 What better or finer tri- bute could a candidate re- ceive from the opposition? And what better man could be elected to the supreme court than a judge who has made such a record on the bench already in this state? Let us all see that he is elected.
