CAMPBELL PAYS
PART Of HUNT 8
COURTEXPENSE

Judge Stanford of the Maricopa
county superior court Monday after
noon extended the time in which the
judgment against Thomas E. Camp
bell in favor of George w. p. Hunt
could be paid for ) days at the
request of Judge f. Z. Sloan, coun-
sci for Campbell in the long guber-
Material contest.
AS an evidence of good faith Judge
Sloan gave the attorneys for Mr..
Hunt check for S2.46O. which had

S1,662.25 Of the judgment of $4.122e5
yet to be paid. Some misunderstand-
ing has existed throughout the state
in regard to this fund, many people
being under the impression that it
was Campbelrs salary that his
friends were trying to raise for him.
instead of Mr. Hunts costs which
were awarded to him by the supreme
court in addition to the salary of
governor for the year 1917. There u,
no provision in the law to preclude
the governor from receiving payment
other than his official salary or this
case would be further complicated
by the fact that Governor Hunt acted
as federal mediator for the depart
ment of labor during 1917 and re-
ceived pay as such.
1t is expected that the remainder
of the fund will be secured this
week, as several counties have not
yet sent in any contribution to this
fund to pay the Judgment, which is
generally admitted throughout the
state should not he allowed to fall
on Campbell as he Is already out

The plans for this line have been
approved by the District Commission

3 street between Seventh and Eigh-
teenth streets, and on Florida avenue
from Connecticut avenue to Eigh-
teenth and U streets. The tracks of
the Capital Traction Company and
the Washington Railway and Elec-
tric Company will be connected by a
short line on Seventeenth street from

short spur will permit the cars of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company to use the Potomac Park

able to build the connection between

As senator Robinson Sees It.
Senator Robinson, of Arkansas,
said:
The President demands informa-
ton from the German government,
first as to whether the terms Of
peace as set forth in his address
of January are accepted: second,
he requires as a precedent to dis
cussing an armistice the immediate
withdrawal of German forces from
all invaded territory. His third in
quiry is~as to whether or not the
offer comes from the military au-
thorities of the empire. These three
questions will. in my opinion, dis
close the insincerity of the German
government in its present attempt to
secure peace, and emphasize the ne
cessity for completely overcoming the
armed forces OF the central empires
before permanent peace can be
made.
ITO refuse any consideration Of the
German overtures would be to give
color to Germany's contention that
she is fighting a defensive warfare.

the morale Of the German army. The
President has demanded a frank aud
sincere test of Germany's good faith.

opinion wfil be vindicated by subse-

day when its sessions are resumed
after the three-day recess. Two or

DEATH RATES
HIGH IN CITIES
Influenza Trebles D. c. Fig.
ure and Raises Boston's
900 Per Cent.

As direct result OF influenza and
its immediate complications, the aver
age weekly death rate OF a majority
of the cities Of the country is from
two to three times as high as nor
mally. Washington's rate has
trebled.
In the New England district the
increase runs as high as four TO seven
times the average weekly mortality
rate for the past five years. as cor-
puted by the United States Census
Bureau. Curiously enough New York
and Chicago show a smaller percent
age of increase than any OF the other
big cities.
The mortality figures for fifty OF
the leading cities Of the country for
the latest weekly period, as buDe-
tined TO Washington, furnish the first
authentic indication of the range and
death toll OF the epidemic among tie
civilian population. They represent
the annual rate per thousand Of esti-
mated population for the weekly pe-
riod, with a comparison OF the aver
age corresponding weekly rate for
the FIVE previous years.
New England Hard Hit.
Boston's death rate jumped from
weekly average of l4.7 to loo.2
