Gov. CarIjll]Il SidosWipcs All. Northern Road Appropriations.

One of the most amusing things in political way that has happened in an exceedingly long time, is the final result of the famous omnibus road bill, as deleted by the governor
 The gallant men who went down to the legislature fought, bled and cried for the omnibus bill because it was going to give their county free hat full from the state treasury Every county was lined up with the prom ise of something and they laid aside other business of the state to pull the chestnuts out of the fire
 The bill went through on one foot.
 Then came the fine Italian hand be- hind, in and around the throne and the governor delicately picked out the times around the edges of the state and threw them out, leaving the fam ous bill about where it started from, except for the Stoddard amendment, which cruelty clipped off per cent of the general levy.
 Apache county worked hard for the strip north of Lupton, which would have connected up the Old Trails Ma tional highway and even included Gustav Becker's private road down the Springerville way and off into the wilds toward the Apache Indian reser> vatiOn.
 The items vetoed were as follows:
 Twenty-Five thousand dollars ($25,- 000) for the construction Of the nee essary road and bridges between St Johns, Apache county. and the New Mexico state line. near Zuni village Arizona
 Seventy-five thousand dollars (75, 000) for the construction of the nee essary road and bridges between Cliff ton, Arizona and the New Mexico state line on the most feasible route between Clifton, Greenville. New Mex ico."

R. Chambers presiding, for the reason Judge Laine of this coun- ty had been previously disqualified, will stand.
 This was the decision of Judge Chambers of Graham county when attorneys for the defense argued a motion before the court in Stafford last Tuesday to have the case re- manded to this county for the pur- pose of hearing an objection, support ed by affidavits, to the order granting change Of venue to Graham county
 The court having denied the motion for rehearing of the order for change of venue, this case will now come on for. trial in the county of Graham.
 At the same time the attorneys for the defense argued the motion to re mand the case to this county to dis pose of the question of the change o1 venue. demurrer to the complaint of the plaintiffs was argued before the court and taken under advise ment.
 In the event that the demurrer te the complaint is over-ruled it is anti ! cipated that the case will be set fol trial in Graham county on April 18th

SENATOR ELLIOTT IS RE AIMED l3y THE.
 COMMERCIAL! CLUB

At meeting of the Clifton Com mercial club held at the "" building on SaSturday afternoon last the veto message of the governor affecting tie Omnibus Highway Bill was consid cred and the, concensus of opinion on Saturday afternoon last the veto whereby the governor segregated from the bill what is locally known as the Mule Creek interstate highway link, should be tested in the supreme court
 The matter was referred to the executive committee of the club who were instructed to interview Hon. H. A. Elliott, attorney at law, and senator from GreenIee county in the recent session of the legislature, re- ,garding the legality of the action of the governor. Senator Elliott met with the executive committee on Tues day night last and in formal discus sion of the history of the Omnibus Bill, it's authorship, it's progerss through the legislature and the veto power conferred upon the governor by the constitution of the state, was held
 As a result of the discussion, Sen, ator Elliott was retained on behalf of the Clifton Commercial club, to con- test the legality of the veto of the governor, as directed against certain specified highway projects incorpo- rated in the Omnibus Bill.
 I'M ,ir,, is that there is only one appropria tion contained in the Omnibus Bill and that it is for the purpose of providing state funds for the build ing of state and county hiwhways in cooperation with like amount of federal aid This appropriation amounted to approximately $1,000,00O and under the provisions of the bill the state highway engineer was direct ed to expend this sum on various highway projects in the several conn ties. of the state.
 As 9 result of the governors veto several of these projects have been strilxan from the bill. The legal point is that the governor exceeded his exc cutive powers when he constituted himself the judge as to what pro jects should be constructed.
 Viewing the veto message of the governor from political standpoin the feeling prevails that the govern or attempted at the last minute tf passify the wounded feelings of tht large taH-paying interests of the stet' by strilSine from the bill those pro iects located in the least populou counties

Washington, March "Blackmail sheer, unadulterated, plain black mail"
 In these words, Senator Ralph Henry Cameron of Arizona today described the suit for $100,000 filed against him in the supreme court of New York by Edward T. McFarlin, for the alleged alterations of his wife's affections.
 'T am not afraid of these charges any more than 1 am of my political enemies,' the senator declared. T have been accustomed to hard fight ing all my life and am prepared to fight this suit now with both fists, fearlessly and in the open, knowing as I do. and as my friends, that the accusations of McFarlin are untrue, unjust. ridiculous and above every thing else a blackmail attempt to discredit me just as I have taken my seat in the United States senate.
