Federal Judge F. G. Jacobs.
Although the door Of the clerks
office was jimmied and the safe

LIQUOR cases to come up, including
many valuable papers, were still. IN
the express office for delivery to the
court Monday morning.
The brief case of Judge Jacobs, ~
ing upon a table in the clerks office
was taken, but included no lndispen-

WAGNER GETS LIFE FOR
MURDER OF GLASGOW

Charles Wagner was convicted OF
the "cabin murder at Prescott Sat
uiday.
A jury in superior court at five
o'clock wrote into the records that the
old prospector, nodding through MS
trial for his life, had murdered Tom
Glasgow, also prospector under
such circumstances that it was a first
degree offense and deserved life inn
plfsonment.
The hour Of deliberation indulged
in by a jury, made swift end to a
case that originated at little road
side cabin not far from Bumblebee
last Christmas morning when Wag-
ner was arrested as he was prepar-
ing to haul away the effects from
Glasgow's blood-stained cabin. But
GIasgow's body was not found for
three months and then it was acci-
dentally turned up in shallow grave
in a gully 200 yards from Wagner's
own cabin. distant about two miles

REPUBLICANS WANT
PHILLIPS FOR GOVERNOR

The endorsement Of Judge John G..
Phillips for the republican nonina-
ton for governor by the executive
committee of the republican state
committee has received the approval
of all republicans who have spoken.
He has lived in this county for 26
years and early in his residence he
acquired the respect and confidence
of the people, as they have frequently
expressed themselves at the polls.
That may be regarded as a sure test
of their estimation of him which,
though it has been often applied, has
never failed.
-Four years after coming to Phoenix
he was elected probate judge and was
retained in that office until the adj
mission OF. Arizona to statehood. In
1911 he. was elected the first superior
Judge Of this county, the only repub-
iiean elected in this county that year.
He declined TO be candidate for the
second term. Twice later he was
elected to the lower house of the Leg
islature, and in 1922 to the senate,
again the only republican who sur
vived the avalanche. So we may pre-
dict that he would carry. Maricopa
county by a good majority against
any democrat that might be nominat-
ed against him.
Judge Phillips is of good old Amer
lean stock. Born in Illinois, he came
to Phoenix in 1898 and established
himself in the law, and gradually, by
hard work, ability and shrewd COM
mon sense which he exercised IN keep
ing his clients out of litigation, built
up a large following. s
Judge Phillips personal record Is
that of a clean living, trustworthy,
public-spirited citizen; his home life
is ideal, his family is a fine illustla-
ton of the value of our public school
system.
His service in the, legislature gave
him clear understanding Of many OF
the problems of state with which he
would be confronted as governor. His
long service as a Judge; his, developed
and matured Judgment, and his rec
ord as q citizen have won the conf
dence OF his fellow citizens.
At present Judge Phillips is on a
camping trip out Of range of the tele-
phone and telegraph. But his assur-
ance of statewide and the united sup
port Of the republican party is on the
way to him, and we shall hope to
learn from his that his chat is in the
ring ARIZONA Republican.

Trade in cattle opened slowly but
later became fairly active at fully
steady prices. BY holding steady at
last weeks advance, makes today's
prices 25 to 40 cents higher than a
week ago and in firm position COM
pared with any previous Monday this
year. Hog prices reached a new high
position for the season and year on
Tuesday Of last week but since then
have sagged steadily and today were
so to so cents under the high time.
Sheep and lambs have undergone a
sharpe break and are weak at the de-
cline.
Today's Receipts

1900 hogs and 5000 sheep compared
with 10000 cattle, 1000 hogs and
5000 sheep week ago and 12,125
cattle, 11,175 hogs and 4, ,150 sheep a
year ago.
Beef Cattle
Beef cattle were in fairly active
demand and prices were steady at
last weeks advance. Demand for
beef seems to be expanding because
Of the high prices for pork and
dressed lamb. From now on, beef
should have a broader outlet and
tone up the market for fat cattle.
Full fed steers were lacking in to-
DAYS offerings. The best here sold
at $1,000 but they We're not prime.
Mixed yearlings sold at $1,000 and
the bulk Of. the good steers at 1925 to
$3.50. Prime steers would have
brought $10.25 to $1,000 had they
been available. Cows are Is to 25
cents higher than a week ago--the
advance coming last week. Heifers
are 20 cents higher, best selling up to
S9.75. Grass fat steers sold at $3.50
to $8.25 and varied from common to
choice. Veal calves were 25 to so
cents lower than last weeks close,
best selling up to $11.25.
Stockers and Feeders
Few light weigh stockers arrived
and they sold readily at firm prices.
Fgeshy feeders were fairly plentiful
at weak prices.
Sheep and Lambs
Today the best lambs sold at $l6.
to S16.6O or $1.15 to $150 lower than
the high point last week. Gull lambs
brought $1,000, down So. a hundred

normal position. Sheep are off 5O
cents. Ewes sold at $500 to $500
and wethers $500 to $8.65.

HUNTS PIE COUNTER
MEN DEMAND HE RUN

e
Official nomination papers, re-
questing the secretary of state to
place the name of G. w P. Hunt, five
times governor Of Arizona, on the
democratic primary ballot as cam
didate for the party's nomination for
q sixth term, are being circulated in
Tucson.
This was revealed following the
visit on an inspection trip" of w. G.
LeFebvre, state highway department
engineer.
Ii is believed that similar papers
are being circulated in other parts of
the state.
Thomas Maloney, chief clerk of the
local office of the state highway de-
partment, is in charge Of the cifcula-
tion Of the papers and also in
charge Of the distribution Of Hunts
campaign literature"
The movement, first reported at
Phoenix, to request Governor Hunt to
be candidate for the office the sixth
time this fall, in spite of his declar-
alton that he would not be a candi-
date, was started at Tucson las.
week. Automobile windshield stick
ers with large letters, declaring We
Want Hunt" are being distributed
among friends Of the present COVER
nor and his nomination papers are
also being circulated.
The movement on the part Of Gov
ernor Hunts friends is in keeping
with the general opinion prevailing
here that Hunt will again be a candi-
date for the office of governor.
Opinion on the matter is divided but
the large majority of men questioned
here think that Hunts declaration
that he would not be candidate was
just political move preliminary to
his announcement.
