i.alSo produces letter from a man in California indorsing his prohibition record and stating that it will not do to put any one else in the office of attorney general but Mir. Jones.
 ''I say Mir Jones has not prosecut- cd single bootlegger in this state, and that any credit due for the en- forcement of the prohibition law should go to the local county offi- cers, county attorneys and peace of ficers of the respective counties, in- stead of to Mir. Jones.
 q further charge that Mir. Jones, since he has been attorney general of this state, has continually violated the prohibition law, both in spirit and letter I state that which every one knows when I say that Mir. Jones is admittedly the most notorious booze fighter in Arizona: he drinks all the liquor he can get, and is frequently seen in public places in an advanced state of intoxication, at such times when the business of the office re- quires his most urgent attention. In this connection, I ask this question {: How does Mir. Jones get his liquor upon which he becomes intoxicated? If he brings this liquor into the state, he violates the law. If he manu- factures it himself he violates the law. If he procures it from boot legger, he aids. abets and encourages the violation of the law, for he says, on page 72 of his published opinions: The purchaser and also the salesman are both principals in any attempted introduction into Arizona
 "I ask the further question: How can Mir. Jones do these things in the face of the official oath which he has taken, which binds him to uphold the law?
 "In the light of the undisputed facts I characterize Mir Jones as a lawbreaker. and in this connection quote from President Wilson on that subject, as follows:
 |" T can never accept any man as champion of liberty, either for our selves or for the world. who does not reverence and obey the laws of our own beloved land, whose laws we ourselves have made. He has adopt ed the standards Of the enemies of his country, whom he affects to des- pise.'
