at Washington is exactly nothing

politically insignificant state
We are warned by Douglas that
our mines are being depleted and
mus be replaced by some other re-
source unless the already heavy bur-
den of taxation upon our farming
lands becomes completely unbear-
able. A tremendous area of farm

now bearing 48 percent of the load

billy to iron and other raw ma
terials, give California advantages
Phoenix tribune., 1926-09-01

Voters of Arizona are this year
hearing from a candidate whose
method of campaigning is certainly
unique Not exactly unprecedented
but at least unusual, very different
from that of the ordinary politician.
Probably Lewis W. Douglas, can
didate for congress, does not de-
serve any particular credit for the
way he is presenting his message to
the people, for it is the only way he
knows. Instead of blaring high
sounding nothings about your sa-
cred and inalienable rights" and ''the
glorious future of our wonderful
state" Douglas is telling the voters
the truth, much of it unpleasant,
about themselves and their state.
We have had many an alluring
picture pain ed for us by office-seek-
ers whose only real convictions
were that they needed jobs, of an
inland empire that would be one un-
interrupted stretch of fertile farms,
rich mines and busy factories from
Utah to Sonora, from New Mexico
to California. In the last few years
most of these gli4tering prophecies
have been based upon development
of the Colorado river. The Colorado
is to be diverted over our deserts
scant $4,000, 100000 or so, and
through 160-mile tunnels 1t is to
furnish practically free power for
mines, cotton mills, silage GU ters
and curling irons and pay all our
taxes forever and ever, amen! Only
somebody-or- has got to be
elected to something-or-other in or
der that he may protect our God
given heritage from the grasping
this-or-that
Douglas dares to s. and up and tell
the voters that Arizona won't get
anything much out of the Colorado
unless she reserves, fights for and
establishes her right to impose a
royalty tax on power generated in

COURT PARTS GIRL
AND DANCER MATE
Frances ArnoId's Marriage to
HaIiIoff, SeIf-StyIed
Prince, Dissolved.

The marriage Of Miss Frances A.
Arnold, daughter of Maj. and Mrs.
Davis G.. Arnold of Bethesda, and
Roufat Magometoff Haliloff, cabaret
dancer and self.styled Georgian
prince. has been dissolved permanent
ly by the Circuit Court at Rockville.
Judge Robert B. Peter has signed a
decree granting Maj. Arnolds petition
for annulment of the marriage on the
ground of fraud. :,
Miss Arnold married Halilof nearlS|
two years ago after a whirlwind
courtship and when 1t was thought
she was about to announce her en-
gagement to a prominent young club
man here. Her prince" was a dancer
at the Cafe lie Paradis at the time.
The ceremony was quietly solemnized
in st. Margaret's Episcopal Church
on April 10, 1925, by Rev. Herbert
Scott Smith.
Trunks Seized OF Honeymoon.
When the couple reached New York
on their honeymoon Halilons TRUNKS
were seized in a breach-of-promise
action. The petition for the annul-
ment declared that the bride promptly
returned to her home in Washington,
where she learned that her husband
had been accused of issuing bad
checks. Haliloff admitted, too, that he
was really not a prince.
Mrs. Haliloff further told the court
that in May, a month after her mar
riage. she consented to accompany her
husband to France. On reaching
there, however, she said she discov-
cred that Haliloff was wanted In a
number of countries on criminal
charges. Without further delay, 1t
was stated, she returned to the United
States and ever since has made her
home with her parents at Bethesda
The petition for annulment was
filed last January. HalilOff was liv
ing in Belgium at the time, it was
said. AS a result of Judge Peters
decree, Miss Arnold regains all OF
the privileges she enjoyed before hel
marriage.
Learns of Decree.
She is better known to Washing
ton society as Miss Delight Potter
Arnold. The name Delight" Is not
her baptismal name, but a name by
which she has been called both by
her family and friends for many
years.
Miss Arnold was at her parents home
this morning. Mrs. Arnold said hel
daughter had been informed of Judge
Peters decree.
The action was brought by Maj
Arnold, because Miss Arnold is still
under age.

HOEHL|NG TO BLAZE
TRAIL IN OIL CASE
Ruling on AdmissibiIity of
Doheny's Senate Testimony
Will Set Precedent.

Halted yesterday afternoon by the
strings of legal technicalities which
wound themselves in and about the
trial of Albert B. Fall. former Secre-
tary of the Interior, and Edward L..
Doheny, oil magnate. charged with
conspiracy to defraud the Government
n connection with the California
naval oil reserve leases, Criminal Dl-
vision 1 of the District Supreme
Court is in recess today to enable the
presiding justice, Adolph A. Hoehling,
to dispose of the grave and impor
tant" question laid before him by op
posing counsel.
The issue was committed to Justice
Ioehling after three and one-half
hours of argument on the admissions
ty of testimony given by Mr.. Doheny
before the Senate Oil investigation
committee January "a, 1924, which the
Government, represented by Owen j.
Roberts of Philadelphia and former
Senator Atlee Pomerene Of Ohio. spe
,ial prosecutors appointed by Presi-
lent Coolidge, seeks to have placed be-
fore the jury as evidence in support Of

Mr.. Fall, which the latter first had de-
clared was advanced by Edward B. Nc
Lean, wealthy newspaper publisher.
Night Sessions Proposed.
Shortly after court convened in the
afternoon, Justice Hoehling announced
he would take the arguments under
advisement and left the bench. About
an hour later he returned and ex
plained that owing to the gravity OF
the matter, ne desired more time fol
study, and adjourned the trial unit
| Monday. At the same time the court
informed counsel that the case would
be heard daily except Sunday and the
defense let it he known that night
sessions would be agreeable to them
to expedite the case. This, however
was not formally agreed to.
Mr., Roberts had the last word III
the argument just after the noon re
cess, but he employed his opportunity
only to emphasize brieny that MI
Doheny's oil committee testimony was
not adduced under compulsion or or
a subpoena and therefore no existing
statute referring to constitutions
rights Is applicable. Then he replied
~ the charges Of Frank j. Hogan
chief counsel for Mr.. Doheny, ant
Wilton J. Lambert, leader of the Fal
defense. that the Government was not
presenting it's case chronologically by
exnlaining that the very nature anc

nlace it before the jury in logical
order.
Effect on Future Probes.
The decision which Justice Hoeh
ling is preparing is expected to clarif7
the meaning Of section S59 OF the ne

not only for the bearing which it will

for the prosecution, but also as to it'
