JUDGE BAKER OF SUPREME COURT. PASSES AWAY AT I HE AGE IF 76
End Comes Suddenly To The Jurist, Who Was Spending Summer Vaca- tion In Los Angeles Prominent In Profession And Politics

Judge Albert c. Baker of the Ari- zona supreme court and one of the leading citizens 0fs the state, passed away at o'clock yesterday morning at the Clara Barton hospital in Los Angeles after an acute illness of heart trouble of but few days but from which he had been a sufferer for more than a year.
 A pioneer resident of Arizona. Judge Baker, who was 76 years of age. has long been prominent in dem ocratic politics and has occupied many positions of importance and honor in the state.
 At his bedside at the time of death were his two sons, Alexander B. Baker and Robert V. Baker, and a daughter, Mrs. John H. Page. all of this city. Mrs. Judge Baker. who had been visiting another daughter. Mrs. Clarence I. Stacy. in Colorado. had been sent a telegram last Saturday notifying her of Judge Bakers criti- cal condition. She was expected to reach Los Angeles last evening, and the deay was due to the fact that, with a party. consisting of her daugh- ter and friends. she had gone to a mountain camp and was cut off from communication by ordinary means.
 Funeral Not Set
 There is uncertainty yet as to the date of the funeral. A telegram from Mrs. John H. Page, daughter of Judge Baker, to her husband stated that the body would be brought back to Piloe- nix on Friday. It was then supposed; that it would lie in state for one day and that the funeral would take place on Saturday.
 With the closing of the supreme court for the summer Judge Baker went to Los Angeles in July to spend his vacation. Taken i'll a little mofs than a week ago. his condition be- came rapidly worse and he was le- moved from his hotel to the Clara Barton hospital and his sons and daughter in this city and his othe: relatives were notified.

He had visited the Cloa Barton hospital in Los Angeles the evening before and said that all hope for Judge Bakers recovery had beer abandoned.

 Two regiments of troops of athou- sand men each, one at Camp Sher- man and the other at Camp Dix. N. J.. were ready to move into the state on a moments notice, war depart ment officials said
 A proclamation declaring martial law in five West Virginia counties has been drawn up and signed by the president. ready for promulga- tion.
 Officials. however. remained hope full that neither step would be nec- essary, although their spirit of opti- misn had been lowered today by dis patches telling of clashes between bands of armed men and state au- thorities and containing no indica- tion of a disposition to comply with the presidents proclamation
 Decision as to whether the federal government will order troops into the state and declare martial law, a step which has not been taken in any state since the days immediately fol- lowing the civil var, will depend on conditions as reported by Brigadier General Bandholtz at noon tomor- row, the hour fixed as limit by President Harding.
 General Bandholtz left today for Charleston.
 The declaration of military rule R- essary by General Bandholtz. it was stated. will be confined to Kanawa, Fayette, Boone. Logan and Mingo counties, a section in the southwest ern part of the state, embracing Charleston. the state capital.
 Reports from the disturbed area were forwarded to Secretary Weeks by Governor Morgan today. They said that the armed men resented or ders to disperse, declaring they would force the government to declare mar tial law and threatening to blow up troop trains should soldiers be sent
 A telegram sent by members of the West Virginia delegation which conferred yesterday with Secretary Weeks reached the war department late today from Charleston
 ''The committee just returned to Charleston" the message says, and find miners from practically every camp in the Kanawha- -Fayette and Boone section rushing to the Logan Boone line. We saw several men with high powered rifles in automobiles rushing the troubled zone. Miners openly state, according to reports to the governor, they will not obey President Harding's proclama- ton. Necessary that federal troops be sent at once if loss of life is to be avoided. More than 5000 men un- der arms close to Boone-Logan line and more on their way"

DAUGHERTY SAYS SOCIAL LEADER
 WHO SCOPES 1T LIQUOR LAW |S AIDING ANARCHY
Violators of Prohibition Act Challenge Suprem- acy of Law and Promote Mob Violence
IRepublIcan A. P.Lea.ed wlre1

CINCINNATI, Aug. 31.-Theories of political philosophy, now advanced by those who either violate law or sympathize with law violators in in dustrial conflicts, agitation to upset American forms of government and against enforcement of prohibition statutes are the greatest forces at work in the United States to under mine respect for the law, Attorney General Daugherty today told the American and Ohio Bar associations
 Arguing equally against sentiment that regards convicted I. w. w. as hero of conscience" and ''politi- cal prisoner that holds a bootlegger an exponent of personal liberty and sets the slogan of human rights against property rights" in employ ment disputes, MT. Daugherty as serted fallacy and danger lay in all
 The attorney general suggested a method of informing public opinion by semi mi-governmental means to ob- viate industrial conflicts, but advo- cated complete disregard for the theories advanced in the two other fields. He declared that the demand for .personal liberty in prohibition enforcement had been advanced in the past by every champion of law lessness who has sought excuse for unlawful conduct.
 Supremacy of the law is not un- dermined by the ordinary criminal who commits murder, robbery, lar ceny,' he said. ITO the contrary every occurrence of crimes of this sort tends to impress on society the profound importance of 'aw and its vigorous enforcement. The suprem- acy of the law is and has been chal- 1enged mainly in that class of iegis- 1ation where there exists a difference of opinion as to governmental policy in enacting the legislation in ques- ton. At present among the forces undermining respect for law are the doctrine of so-called political personal liberty, and false doctrines as to the rights of individuals and minorities."
 Resentment of large corporations, of persons and capital" against s'in- reference of laws regulating them. " he said, involved a mistaken atti- tude" for Jaw and order is the shield of business and its only security"
 Commercial and social leaders who scoff at the federal prohibition law are aiding anarchy and promoting mob violence, robbery and homicide, 1t was declared today in warning issued to the people by the judicial section, of the American Bar asso- ciation.N

WYOM|NG WILL
 JOIN COLORADO
 IN RATE FIGHT
IRepubIIcan A. P. Leased Wirel

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 31.-Wyom- ing will probably intervene in the petition of the state of Colorado to the interstate commerce commission to revoke the order of Aug. 26, 1920, increasing freight rates generally, Gov. Robert D. Carey of Wyoming stated here tonight
 .'We certainly need relief of some sort from the present freight rates, particularly on agricultural prod ucts." Governor Carey said.
 While he has not received the for nal invitation that Gov. Oliver H. Shoup of Colorado sent to Is gover- nors of western states to join with Colorado in a movement to reduce freight rates. Gov. Carey expressed himself in sympathy with the ends of the agitation launched by the Colo rado executive.
 Governor Shoup's letter sent yes terday to governors of surrounding states requesting that they take the necessary steps to intervene in the petition of Colorado with the inter state commerce comuission or take whatever other means they deemed ' advisable to join in the fight for lower rates, thus making it a na- tion wide movement.
 Intrastate rates will also be the subject of attention, the Wyoming governor declared, calling attention to a personal experience in this con nection.
 "A carload of horses shipped from one of our ranches to another within the state, a distance of about 10t miles. cost s9o. To ship from the same point to Denver. nearly twice the distance, costs only about $50.
 While he feels that the rates or livestock are excessive Governor Carey declared that it is the rates on agricultural products that arc most burdensome to the people O wyoming.
 .Why. there Is scarcely any move ment of stuff in Wyoming today h' declared.
 A conference of the western gov ernors invited to operate in tln movement launched by Governo Sboup was suggested by Governo Carey.
