HEARD IN FALL.

Advices received from Phoenix are to the effect that the appeal of former Governor Hunt in the governorship contest will come before the supreme court immediately upon the courts converting next fall, after the summer recess. The attorneys for the contest ants will be ready at that time, it was brought out when the motion of Hunts attorneys for an order expedit- ing the case came up for hearing. It was decided today, after a conference between attorneys for both sides and the court, that Hunt should file brief setting forth the pertinent points of the appeal. Campbel's attorneys will then file supplementary brief setting forth additional points, which, if the supreme court decides are pertinent, will be included and costs taxed to Hunt. Hunts attorneys stated they would attack only four precincts on the appeal-Douglas. No. 1 Snow flake. Pinal and Wilgus. CampbelTs attorneys will insist on the consider ation of ten or twelve more precints.

iation. They are predicated on the belief
that the great masses do not know what
Ia good for them. They are more often
than not stupid and the public has no
confidence In them. This was notably
true for q time In Pennsylvania, when
the censorship of motion pictures had
become ridiculous.
But ordinary censorship and censor
ship for the national defense are en-
tirely different things. The latter no pa
triot would oppose and no newspaper
fall TO observe voluntarily. 1t is regret
table, however, that the rulings In Wash
ington should have been SO muddled that,
whine some newspapers were observing
the Governments requests for nonpub'
lication Of specific dispatches. other news
papers were printing them. Possibly the
new rulings by Mr.. Creel will prevent the
repetition of such conditions. II they do
not, voluntary censorship will cease to
exist. Nor will public opinion sustain
any censorship which represses facts al
ready well known In Europe and Kept
secret here only for bureaucratic pur'
poses.

NEWS came the other day of the death
of Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore's widow. Her
funeral should have been vibrant with
fiawless music. Pat Gilmore's band was
the daddy of them all Just after wartime
and up until the early 's0s, when the
bandmaster died. At that time John
Philip Sousa was an enlisted musician
drawing down something less than $50
a month as leader Of the United States
Marine Band. The White House took
him up and helped along his vogue, and
with the passing Of Giimore Sousa was
exploited by some promoter we've for
gotten who) and engaged to make q
tour Of the country at what then must
have seemed to him the munifcent wage
Of $4,000 per year. That wasn't enough
for him next year, but the promoter in
that one twelvemonth surely cleaned up
a bunch Of notes that made music enough
for the remainder of his life.
