be matched against Federal funds and it was right and just that the fund thus raised should have been allotted to road projects in the several coun- ties. -.H
 The bill was introduced in the Le- gislature at the request of the State Engineer and we have every reason to believe that the State Engineer submitted the measure as drawn for the approval of the Governor before hand.
 At no time during the progress of the bill through the Legislature did any republican representative of the state administration raise his voice in protest aganst the bill, but on the contrary the state engineer appeared in person before the House in support of the measure.
 At the last minute the Governor was tempted and fell. The lobby maintained at the state capitol to de feat the Omnibus bill having failed in their efforts with the legislators the activity of the lobbyists was transfer red to the Executive offices, and we have the spectacle of foster father mutilating his own child at the be hest of a powerful few, and at the ex pense of the small counties least able to bear it.
 But the end is not yet Greenlee county may be small. Greenlee coun ty may be the only democratic coun ty in the state, but when our taxpay CTS are called upon to pay into the state treasury the sum of approxima tely s8o,o0o, to be matched against federal aid, and the entire sum speus in other rich and populous. counties of the state, and no part of 1t spent on a meritorins project in Greenlee county, the Governor will soon discov' er there is still another fight left in our people, which will soon manifest itself in proceedings to be instituted in the Supreme court of the state.

The judge went to the State Bank of Morenci and en

GOVERNOR MUT|LATES PET
 M MEASURE hT LAST MINUTE

To the complete surprise of the members of the late Legislature. the State Highway Engineer, and the supporters of definite highway pro gram in the state for the ensuing two years, Governor Campbell, on the last day allowed him by law, took his executive pen in hand and drew a line through certain items contained total of the appropriation approxim- ately $350,oO0.
 The projects stricken from the bill, from which aHotments of the appro- priation had been made, include those located in Apache, Mohave, Graham, Santa Cruz and Greenlee counties. It is noticeable that those projects lying within the populous counties of Cochise, Gila, Maricopa, Yavapaf, Yuma, ct al, were spared the Govern or's displeasure.
 The project in Greenlee county which fell under the Governors axe, was known locally as The Null. Creek Interstate Highway Link carry ing an allotment of $75,000, which there was every reason to believe can be matched with like amount of federal aid
 In a recent visit to Greenlee county State Engineer Maddock made per sonal inspection over this project and it is we'll known fact that the State Engineer considered this project one of importance in connection with the east and west state highway from the New Mexico boundary west to Yuma, through the counties of Greenlee, Gra- ham. Gila, Maricopa and Yuma
 A printed extract from the Govern- or's veto message says the Governor brands certain items in the bill as B pork barreI' scheme, and conceived in selfishness. How the Governor ar rives at the conclusion that certain highway projects enumerated in the Omnibus bill can be desiguated as pork barrel'' projects. conceived in selfishness. will remain a mystery until the ERA can secure the veto message of the Governor in full.
 The Omnibus Bill was prepared by State Engineer Maddock. an apporntee of the Governor. ot the beginning of the session. fer the trustworthy pur- pose of providing state road funds to

Of interest to local owners of suit cases and cellars is the decision re- gently handed down by the United States district court in San Francisco, to the effect that suitcases may not be searched for alcoholic contents without a warrant. The decision was occasioned by the arrest of George E.. Barnard, in whose suitcase the police claimed to have found brandy. Tn dismissing the case the court ruled that suitcases should not be searched without a warrant Bernard accord inely departed with his suitcase and also all the alcoholic evidence in the case.

CAMERON CAMPAIGN FUNDS
 PROBED BY |. s. OFFICIALS

Phoenix, March 23-Some little speculation has arisen as to the signi- ficance of an alleged official investi- gation which is now being made by de- partment of justice officials into the campaign expenditures of United States Senator Ralph Cameron.
 Two representatives of the depart msnt are known to have called at the office of the secretary of state re- gently for the purpose of checking up the primary campaign expense state- ment of the senator. This coupled with rumors which have been in CIT culation for some time is suggestive of the fact that enemies of the sen ator are busy trying to start some thing.
 Who is behind the movement is a mystery. By some it is thought that the probe may be part of generar investigation being conducted at the suggestion of congress following the developments in the Newberry case.
 Under the state law a candidate fer the United States senate is permitted to spend not more than $500 for pre- primary expenses Cameron filed a sworn statement showing his expenses as $1251.60, and detailing them as follows: Stenographer $75: auto ban ners, s45; rent headquarters, S125 telegrams, s31; street banner, $G5 railroad and auto fares, $135; postage S10230; telegraph tolls S56.30: auto hire. s10: workers. S20; rent of type writer s25: office stationery, $23. printing and buttons ,$210: newspaper advertising, $27950: meals. trea S cigars and sodas. S1750; newspaper subscriptions, S31.50.
