And the End is Not Yet---An
Appeal by the Hunt Crowd
phoenix Messenger)

Former Gov ernor Hunt this
morning indicated through his
attorneys that he will carry his
contest for the gubernatorial
chair to the highest court in the
state when the appeal papers
were filed.
The former governor has six
months in which to perfect the
appeal in the Supreme Court,
and during this time Governor
Campbells salary will be held
up and the costs Of the contest
which devolve upon the defend
ant will remain unpaid. The ap-
peal will also have the effect of
suspending the payment of bets,
of which many thousands of dol
lars are said to be pending.
Whether or not the appeal will
ever be perfected is considered
doubtful by many. Judge Stan
ford, today allowed the Campbell
claim for inspection costs incur
red during the contest.
The chief objection to the cost
of inspection as raised by the
Hunt attorneys was the salary
paid the inspectors. The entire
cost amounts to something over
$4,000 and several hundred dol
lars of this went to the payment
of the men who inspected the
ballots. Their salary was $25 a
day and the contestant claimed
that it was agreed to pay them
only $40 a day for this work.
Other items were objected to al
SO, but the most strenuous attack
was launched against the inspec-
tors expenses.

they are the most interesting of

so intelligent, so important-like
in their own estimation. We
have only one kick to make, i. e.,
they get up too early in the

G In view of the fact that the
Washington Administration has been
trying to whip thru Congress the
passage Of a ''Press Censor Bill, )" the
following London United Press dis
patch makes good editorial reading:
London, May 1O.-The loss of a
big passenger steamer with seventy
persons including several people of
note aboard, is announced in the Lon
don Chronicle. Editorially the Chron-
icle voices the insistent demand that
the House of Commons explain why
the admiralty ''pursues its inconsis-
tent policy" of 'concealing facts. :"
"About two weeks ago, the editorial
declares, "a large steamer was lost
and among the seventy lives lost
were number of people of note, and
yet no news has been published of
the disaster.

Iq The startling statement has been
made by one of the foremost news

patrioticly glad that it was over with;
that on account of the ''torn times of
our nation" he was glad that the
matter was cleared so that the "dear

dose of Dunbar's Weekly and it's ink,
the matter with Hunt.
q An editorial paragraph in the
Albuquerque Morning Journal com
ments on the thriftiness of the Ger

to the highest possible efficiency,
when they are killed on the battle
field, they render their fat into glyc-

work promptly under way.
He was assured that the operators
had made their agreement in good

first meeting until Monday morning, on
the ground that several of the commit
