In the Legislature j 
PHOENIX, Arlz., Jan. 15 (TP). — - 
’he ease with which Mulford Win- 
or of Yuma wields the gavel as 
resident of the senate, aided and 
betted by caustic , repartee, re- 
linds the old-timers in the press 
allery of Speaker IJom Reed in the 
ational house of representatives 
cone 30 years ago. 
A southern congressman, replete 
nth rhetoric but short on logic, 
ose to a point of order, charging 
hat he had been accused of being 
. "lobbyist, filibusterer and law- 
er.” Reed remarked, dryly: "We 
/ill nolle the last charge.” 
Major Kelly, state historian; 
Silly Spear, editor of the Arizona 
tepublican, and Ned Creighton, 
can of the active reporters, daily 
ecupy .the press galleries of the 
jglslature. Never has a legisla- 
ure met without the presence of 
his editorial trio. Major Kelly in- 
ists he comes in only as an on- 
ooker and that he is "through” as 
lire nicler of current events. Mr 
Spear takes copious notes and ap- 
iearS as intensely interested as 
he regular reporters. Ned C.'reigh- 
on daily dispenses legislative 
loings to the press of the state. 
Bob Caples, 69-year-old reporter, 
dtizen of the world and, in his own 
vords, a connecting link between 
he dim past and the present, is 
laity oar the job in the press gal- 
cr.v for a Miami, newspaper. Bob 
shows the activity of a cub re- 
porter and the enthusiasm of youth 
n his daily ramble for news. Porty- 
’ive years ago Bob was editor of a 
ibwspaper in Tucson, and he re- 
fills with gusto that only through 
revenues from saloon and gambling' 
rouse advertisements was the 
raper able to meet the Saturday 
aayroll. 
v-rip Sui*°”’s sense of humor 
rften is exhibited on the floor of 
the senate. A senator had ' arisen 
several times, and ini emphasizing 
his objections to a bill, had repeat- 
ed himself so often that he at- 
tracted the attention of every one 
in the chamber — a signal ac- 
complishment. 
The senator from Cochise very 
formally addressed the chair and 
asked permission to address a 
question to his colleague who had 
the floor at the moment. “Is the 
senator starting a new speech or 
continuing the first speech he 
started?” Sutter asked with his 
best seriousness.
