. The name of Judge A. c. Baker will be submitted to the democratic voters for nomination to the office of Judge of the Supreme Court, at the primray election, September 10, 1918.
 President Cleveland appointed Judge Baker Chief Justice of the Su- preme Court in 1893. During the time he held this high office, he wrote many opinions of prime import ance in the judicial history of the state. These opinions clearly ex- press the rule of law governing each particular case, and are simply and ,brieAy stated without ostentation or and are, singularly free from all ap- pearances of political bias.
 He was a member of the Constitu- tional Convention, and served with distinction in that body. Among other important measures introduced and advocated by him was resolution No. 4, providing for the initiative and referendum, and although the commit tee changed this resolution somewhat in phra seology, Iand in some particu- lars added thereto, yet it served as Ia basis for the resolution afterwards introduced by the committee provid- ing for the initiative and referendum, as it now stands in the Constitution.
 Judge Baker has filled many other places of public trust with fidelity and ability. He was member of the 11th Legislative Assembly. He served as Assistant U.' S. District Attorney for one term, and District Attorney of Maricopa County for three terms. He has been president of the State Bar Association, and at the present time is a member of the State Board of Law Examiners, which conducts the examination of applicants for admis- sion to the bar.
 AS lawyer. his standing is exceed inglv high. His learning in the law, courled with a rigid impartiality in the formation of his opinions hs free dom from any kind of prejudices, so- cial or political. his unhagging in- dustry. and his frankness and fear 'essness in the discharge of a public duty, eminently qualities him for the high position of judge of the Supreme Court
 He has appeared as counsel, for one side or the other. in. large num- Der of the most important cases tried in the state for nearly forty years. When the liquor interests backed by an array of the best legal talent in the state, attacked the pro. l'hibition amendment as unconstituti
 onal and sought to -nioin its en. forcement, Judge Eaker. associated
 with the attorney general, appeared before the Federal Court in Califor
 mia in defense of the law. The court refused to enioin the inforcement of ] the amendment. and it remained in tact and unimpaired until the opin
 ion of the Supreme Court of the state
 was handed down, permitting the in
 troduction of liquor into the state foI personal use.
 Judge Baker is a firm democrat.
 However, he has never suffere" his | political views to affect him in the
 discharge of public duty. The
 Judge has been greatly interested in
 work for the Red Cross and urging the purchase of Liberty Bonds. His addresses in behalf of these causes have been jmbued with a spirit of fervid patriotism, and have been ex | tremely helpful. His two sons Alexander and Robert, are in the
 United States Army. serving their
 country, of which fact Ae is justly proud.
