No. 23 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT STATE OF ARIZONA PROCLAMATION OF LABOR DAY Since the day of the Divine edict: "By the sweat of thy brow shalt thou earn thy bread," man has by his labor been earning emancipation and progressing to a plane of higher freedom —physical and spiritual. Although imposed for the breaking of a command, the mandate, like all those issuing from from such a source, was designated as a blessing and not as a punishment. Work, that of the hand and mind, has been the one most potent force in the world's progress. Nowhere has Labor made such onward strides as in these United States; nowhere has its achievements been so notable and nowhere has the saying been more fully demonstrated that "Labor is King." Labor has struggled and fought its way to that freedom which comprehends and includes commensurate return for its services, a voice in the body politic and the benefits enjoyed by one and all under our system of free government. In recognition of the dignity of the toiler and his enviable record the State of Arizona has decreed that the first Monday in September of each year shall be set aside as a holiday on which by legislative enactment as the expression of the will of the people of the State I am in thorough accord. The nucleus of organized society is the individual. No system that abridges the rights of the individual or prevents the exercise of his initiative or industry can survive or become an enduring part of our economic system. No plan that releases the individual from his obligations to his fellow-men, decrees that employment shall be restricted to the chosen few and predicates the right to live and earn under restricted conditions, can in its very nature survive. Organization to secure men their full rights, better relations with their employers, improved working conditions and adequate compensation for their labor is justifiable and proper. Organization that protects them in irresponsible or unlawful acts in dereliction of duty or that suppresses ambition or unlawful is fundamentally wrong. The worker must realize that there are certain obligations resting and devolving upon him, among them being: Improvement in quality and quantity of production; reduction through his efforts and co-operation of the cost of production, higher efficiency and loyalty to and confidence in his employer. The employer also has his duties, obligations and responsibilities. He should realize that before misunderstanding is wiped out and an effective and cordial basis of relationship effected, the demands of Labor, including increase of wages, steady work and proper working conditions, must be considered in a fair and impartial way, and if reasonable, be granted. Too often the employer is arbitrary in his methods of dealing with his men, refusing them the right of presenting their grievances, and thus creating a feeling of dissatisfaction and discontent which leads to decreased production and often more serious trouble. Class domination cannot thrive in this country. Inherently it carries the deadly machinery for its own destruction. There is no more dangerous force operating in this country today than the class-minded man, whether he is a laborer, capitalist or farmer—the one who demands a privilege for his class at the expense of the American people. It is a tribute not founded on right or justice and cannot be exacted. Americanism cannot live—this nation as conceived by our forefathers in liberty, equality and justice—cannot endure handicapped and retarded by the shackles of class control. Such control strikes at the very foundations of our Republic and threatens its very existence I hold with Abraham Lincoln that Labor precedes capital and has first claim to our consideration. The true friend of capital is he who insists that it shall be the servant and not the master of the nation. There can be no real prosperity, in which labor, capital and the public do not share. And there can be no real or lasting prosperity with our destinies and fortunes under class domination, NOW, THEREFORE, I, THOMAS E. CAMPBELL, Governor of the State of Arizona, by virtue of the authority vested in me by law, and recognizing the value of Labor and its achieve- ments, do herewith designate and set aside Monday, September 6, 1920, as LABOR DAY a legal holiday. And I further recommend and suggest that fitting and appropriate exercises be held to commemorate the occasion at which the people of this State may be made cognizant of the manner in which the toilers have aided in the development of this commonwealth and contributed to its greatness. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed. Done at Phoenix, the capital, this the 21st day of August, 1920. THOMAS E. CAMPBELL, (Seal) Governor. Attest: MIT SIMMS, Secretary of State. By G. E. McGILLEN, Assistant Secretary. PRESCOTT ```markdown ``` The afternoon affair given Friday, Aug. 27, by Mrs. J. R. Jordan, 239 South Marina street, in honor of Mrs. O. G. Howard and Mrs. Mary E. Scott of Phoenix, was indeed a sumptuous affair. However, it was a typical Hen Party. Mrs. Jordan, the hostess, was very thoughtful, for she requested all invited guests to bring their knitting, crocheting, sewing and embroidery work. This request was made because of the fact that "an idie brain is the devil's workshop." As a result, the large number of women assembled in this home enjoyed a delightful afternoon and at the same time accomplished something for themselves. A dainty repast consisting of ice cream and cake was served by the hostess and all the ladies were made to feel that they were being treated very cool (to ice cream, of course). This gathering of ladies proved to be an epoch-making affair, and history will record the wonderful achievement of Mrs. S. E. Newell in perfecting an organization entitled the "Mary B. Talbert Literary and Art Club of Prescott, Arizona." Mrs. Newell is the authorized representative of the Arizona State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs in northern Arizona, and she proceeded to organize this club and has installed the following officers: President, Mrs. Susie E. Tull; vice-president, Mrs. S. J. Anderson; recorder, Mrs. W. T. Bell; treasurer, Mrs. Love Jordan; chairman program committee, Mrs. F. L. Delaney; parliamentarian, Mrs. R. E. Youngblood; mother and honorary member, Mrs. S. E. Newell. Mrs. Harriet Gibson of Ashville, N. C., arrived in Prescott Sunday and is staying with her aunt; Mrs. Mary Carter. She will make this her permanent home. Mr. Burnett left Tuesday for Phoenix, where he will spend the winter months. He has been a visitor in the city the past three months, but must now seek a warmer climate for the benefit of his health. Miss Helen Harper Vance has been on the sick list the past week. At the People's A. M. E. Zion church Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 14, 15 and 16, there will be rendered the following programs: Tuesday, Sept. 14, 14 Old Folks' Concert; Wednesday, Sept. 15, Mock Trial; Thursday, Sept. 16, Tacky Party. On the first night there will be served a chicken dinner; second night, oyster supper; third night, fish breakfast. To see the two beauty corners will be worth the price of admission. One 25-cent ticket admits you to all three performances. Get your tickets now. Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Mrs. F. Alexander suffered a painful burn on her hand last week while ironing. She is doing nicely at present. One of the most delightful affairs of the season was the picnic outing given by Mrs. Thomas E. Hines, complimentary to Mrs. K. Hines of Houston, Texas, and Mrs. O. G. Howard of Phoenix, Ariz. Other members of the party were Mrs. F. H. Alexander and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas E. Hines. The party motored to Groom Creek, where a delicious lunch was served and greatly enjoyed by all. During the day they motored to Granite Dells, Scenic Park and other points of interest. Mrs. Howard will leave soon for her home in Phoenix and Mrs. K. Hines will leave on the 10th for her home in Houston, Texas. ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1920 WOMEN OF AMERICA ARE FIFTY-FIFTY WITH STERNER SEX (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Sept. 2. "It is finished." The women of America are fifty-fifty with the men; they are now full-fledged citizens, with all the rights and privileges of the so-called sterner sex, and they will vote for the next president of the United States. The Tennessee legislature put on the finishing touches. Governor Roberts understood and underscored the decree, and Secretary of State Colby gave the final official announcement to the world. There is much rejoicing, bell ringing and excitement of various kinds, but the dear old South has to go through an ordeal of elimination unlike anything it has ever before passed through. If the South gets away with disfranchising openly, and with malice aforethought, all the Negro women of the section, it will be the most monumental act of legal indifference and defiance ever perpetrated in this country. Strong indications point to the fact, however, that the women are not going to be as docile and as easy as the men in seeing that the rightful constituents get the rightful privilege of casting their ballots and having them honestly counted. The women are more conscientious than men, and whether Republican or Democrat, they have high regard for the letter of the law. Therefore, there will be some interesting political developments. "The Negro women of the United States and the Negro men of the United States are entitled to vote now and everywhere and forever. Are the Democrats bold enough to deny them and the Republicans cowards enough to permit the grand larceny?" asks one of the most prominent Republicans in the country. DOUGLAS (By Rev. Major Jones) The people of Douglas are glad to have the Phoenix Tribune and soon we hope to place it in every home in Douglas. Every one should have this great race paper in his home and read the good, wholesome news contained therein. The Tribune may be procured of Rev. M. Jones, 527 Fifth street.

Wells left Saturday afternoon for White City, where she will spend several weeks visiting friends. After reading the Tribune, take your Bible and read Rev., 2d chapter and 2d verse, and 21st chapter and 8th verse. 72 NEGRO BANKS NOW HANDLE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ANNUALLY (By Associated Negro Press) Philadelphic, Pa., Sept. 2.—Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, in his final summing up of the work of the twenty-first annual meeting of the National Negro Business League, which was held in Philadelphia from August 18 to August 21, said: "The twelve million Negroes of America now have a deeper appreciation than they have ever had before of their value to the economic and social life of the nation. Indeed, they have a deeper appreciation of the fine men and women that the race has produced. American Negroes have today a firmer faith that right makes might. We shall all work, contend and pray until the un-Christian barriers are broken down. This has been the best session of the National Negro Business League." Dr. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who had just previously been re-elected by hearty acclamation as president of the League, thanked the great audience of delegates and friends of Negro business progress for the fine spirit of co-operation and good-will which they had shown throughout the interesting and valuable three-day program. The League's Service James C. Napier of Nashville, Tenn., the League's honorary president, spoke on "The Aim, the Growth and the Achievements of the National Negro Business League." He said: "Dr. Booker T., Washington, who organized the League twenty years ago, although men declared it would fail, had faith in the ability of the Negro race to make progress in business. He had a real vision. Spread-eagle oratory was put aside. Men and women were encouraged to lay bare the struggles of their souls. The efforts of obscure men were clearly demonstrated. "In 1900, when Dr. Washington summoned a score of men to attend the first meeting in Boston, there were few Negroes engaged in business pursuits. Negro business stocks were diminutive. Negro business men's experience was circumscribed. Today, Negro business men and women compare favorably with other men and women in business. "In 1900, for example, Negro real estate dealers doing a large business could have been enumerated on the fingers of one hand. They were handling property worth a few thousand dollars. Now Negro real estate men are handling millions of dollars' worth of property. During this meeting a Negro real estate man within a very short time put through a $30,000 deal. "In 1900, Negro theatres were practically unthought of. Since then great progress has been made in building Negro theatres; the beauty culture industry has grown rapidly; farmers have learned the value of applying science to their work; the chain-store idea is now developing. In 1900 there was one Negro bank. Today there are 72 Negro banks, handling millions of dollars. "The League's aim has been to teach the importance of the idea of community of interests among Negroes and to have Negroes support Negro enterprises. SHORTER THAN EVER Paris, France, Sept. 1.—Here is Dame Fashion's decree for autumn gowns and street dresses as registered at the first fall fashion show in Paris: The shortest skirts since the days of Mother Eve—and this despite the protests of American buyers that American women won't wear them. A two-panel skirt, reaching barely to the knee, with front and rear panels not stitched together all the way down, threatening to display much lingerie on windy days. Evening gowns high in the front, but absolutely lacking in backs, the absence of clothing being strings of pearls down the back or large beauty spots. The American buyers who swarmed the first exhibition went away almost without making a single purchase. (By Associated Negro Press) Tulsa, Okla., Sept. 2.—Prof. Kelly Miller of Washington, D. C., spoke here last Wednesday night to a large and enthusiastic audience on "The Aftermath of the War." MILLION DOLLAR WHISKEY GANG IN CHICAGO BLACK BELT (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., Aug. 2.—Two white detective sergeants were shot and killed in one of the notorious "black and tan" resorts, the Pekin Cabaret, early Monday morning, by Hershle Miller, a tough gunman from the west side. The first reports of the affair gave the impression that the killing was the outcome of the mixing of white and colored dancers who have been frequenting the place. This phase of the reports was given due credence because of the frequent brawls that have occurred in the resort between Negroes and white men about the right to dance with the Negro and white women who spent their leisure and late hours enjoying its illicit practices. Later reports, however, revealed that the operations of a big illicit whiskey ring was the cause of the tragedy. The Pekin Cabaret was an important receiving and distributing station for a $1,000,000 illicit whiskey gang who were operating among the questionable resorts and "blind" saloons on Chicago's south side. Graft, politics and the bawdy charms of women of the underworld played their several parts in the sordid tragedy, and, incidentally, another opportunity is afforded the local daily press to dilate upon the criminal menaces lurking in the murky places of Chicago's widely known "Black Belt." William Hennessy and James Mulcahy were the detective, sergeants killed by the trusty gun of Hershie Miller. The presence of the detectives in the Pekin at the unseemly hour of 3 a.m. is accounted for in the statement made by Miller that there was a quarrel about a division of spoils money. Walter Tyler, the Negro manager of the resort, and one of his entertainers, styled "Salome," and two white women, Lila Akron and Mrs. Jane Ritter, are being held by the state attorney's office as important witnesses in the case. Tyler denies any knowledge of the whiskey ring and the three women disavow any knowledge of the causes of the killing aside from the fact that they were present when the shooting took place. The Pekin remains closed as a result of the shooting. Dan Jackson, a colored undertaker, is the owner of the building which houses the cabaret. An effort to connect Alderman Louis B. Anderson with the proprietorship of the cabaret by the authorities failed. * MESA * (By Alphonse Robinson) Mr. L. Wilson and family, who the past year have been residing on a farm near Mesa, have moved to town so that their children may have the opportunity of attending school regularly. Mr. William Rosser of Phoenix was a Sunday visitor in Mesa. Mr. and Mrs. L. Taylor have moved into their new home. The colored school is being erected in the north end of town. The contractors are rushing things so as to be ready in time for the opening date; early this month. Mrs. Mary Turner of Phoenix was a business visitor in Mesa Sunday. The entertainment given Thursday night at the residence of Mrs. John Porter by members of the Eastern Star proved entirely successful. Quite a number of people from Tempe came over for the entertainment. Miss McFraddie Robinson and Miss Noveleate Hall spent a few days in the capital city last week. Rev. Edward Jones of Phoenix was a business visitor in the city Tuesday. Mr. L. Ferguson is delighted to have his brother and the rest of the family in from the country. Numerous Charges Are Filed Against Woman (By Associated Negro Press) Trenton, N. J., Sept. 2.—Mrs. Marion Dregguss, a colored woman, was arraigned in the Second Precinct Court, charged with bigamy, atrocious assault and adultery. She pleaded guilty to the first charge but entered a plea of not guilty in the other instances. The woman was committed to the county jail in default of bail. WHY THE NEGRO IS A REPUBLICAN (By Major John R. Lynch, U. S. A., Retired) Major Lynch was formerly a member of congress from Mississippi, and under one of the republican administrations was auditor of the treasury. Later he was appointed as paymaster in the army, and after several years of distinguished and efficient service, was retired with the rank of major. He was temporary chairman of the republican national convention that nominated James G. Blaine, and has written a number of books of fine interest to the history of the Negro race. Under our system of government the exercise of civil and political rights by all classes and groups of American citizens should be guaranteed at all times and in all sections of the country, and this should not be contingent upon the result of the national election. In other words, conditions should be such that no one class, race or group of American citizens should find it necessary to act as a solid body with one political party. This was the contemplation of the framers of the constitution, but those just and honorable forefathers could not foresee the contingency where a political party would be dependent for its very existence upon racial and sectional hatred. The inherent disposition of the democratic party to either practice or condone peonage, disfranchisement, segregation and other discriminations and reprisals against the constitutional liberties and lives of colored people, has left these people no other alternative but to ally themselves with the republican party, that has ever stood for liberty, freedom of thought and equal opportunity to all American citizens, without regard to race, creed or condition. The democrats themselves, occupying representation in congress, electing presidents, declaring and conducting wars, shedding rivers of blood and mountains of treasure, while they are in a minority as to the great body of American people, are themselves responsible for the fact that the Negro cannot be anything else than a republican. I will not hark back to the well known fact that our race found its freedom in the hands of a republican president. I will not remind the younger generations of my race that every right and privilege of citizenship that we now enjoy emanated from the republican party, and every right and privilege of citizenship that has been taken away from us has been taken by the democratic party. These facts are known even to a little child and are never denied by the most zealous partisan. But I do charge that the extreme narrowness of the democratic party, depending as it does upon racial hatred for its national tenure, has made the Negro himself narrow in self defense. All of the big questions at issue in this campaign are made secondary in the mind of the Negro. The questions of the League of Nations, of reconstruction of currency, of industrial relations, vital as they are to the life and prosperity and progress of the nation, the consideration of which would broaden the colored American's point of view and raise the standard of his value to the body politic, are forced to the background because he has been bitterly taught that the election of any democrat to the presidency means the abridement of his rights, the conscription of his labor, the humiliation of his hopes for advancement. "Self-preservation is the first law of nature," and the Negro, like all human beings, is a child of nature. He enters the campaign handicapped for the consideration of the great issue, knowing full well that he and all of his kin must "hang together" against his long enemy, the democratic party, or the democratic party, unchallenged for half a century of reprisals against a struggling Negro race, will see to it that he "hang seperately." While Woodrow Wilson, Candidate Cox and their pharisaical partisans are sniffing and sobbing about making the world safe for democracy, the Negro sorely beset by these same hypocrites, must confine his interest, his vote and his endeavors to make the coun- 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year try that he has bled to preserve, safety for himself. Woodrow Wilson is a great dreamer of dreams and has 'let dreams be his master," while Cox, upon whose shoulders this great dreamer's mantle has fallen, is such a nightmare of cross purposes upon all questions a issue that he cannot even dream successfully. The wrongs and injustices of the colored American were brought to the attention of the two major parties at their national conventions. by the democrats they were entirely ignored while the republicans, true to the traditions of the party, condemned and promised to remedy them. Senator Harding, the party's choice for president, has since materially enlarged upon the platform declaration. His straightforward utterances upon these important and vital points cannot be otherwise than gratifying for the friends of equal crvII and political rights, and to those who believe in justice and fair play and a square deal to all. He takes a strong stand in favor of having lynch law suppressed through the machinery of federal government. He is equally outspoken when he declares that the colored Americans should be guar anteed the enjoyment of all their rights. This covers the entire ground, for if the colored man is guaranteed all of his rights there will be no further cause for complaint. We firmly believe that this will be the settled determination of the Harding administration. At any rate the colored American is justified in believing this will be done, for the republican party has done for the Negro all that has been done. Senator Harding also said: "I believe in law enforcement. If I am elected I mean to be a constitutional president, and it is impossible to ignore the constitution, unthinkable to evade the law, and our every committal is to orderly government." RAY (By Chester Maryland) Mr. Charles Vann left Monday for Oklahoma, where he will reside permanently. He will send for his family as soon as he locates. Mr. Robert Killman of Phoenix was a Ray visitor last week. Mrs. Rose Davis gave a delightful party last week in honor of Miss Louise Lewis of Hayden and Mr. Earl Johnson of Phoenix. Among those present were Miss Luella Watkins, Mr. Thomas Crump, Miss Dorothy Crump, Mr. Curtis Watkins, Mrs. Forest Lewis, Mrs. L. H. Harris, Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Maryland, Mr. Earl Johnson and Miss Louise Lewis. Delicious refreshments were served, after which the guests spent the evening at whist. Music was furnished by the Victrola. At a late hour the guests departed, all declaring Mrs. Davis a charming hostess. Wm. P. Crump returned last week from a business trip to Los Angeles. Mrs. Forest Lewis entertained a few friends with a whist party one evening last week. Mr. Thomas Crump and Mrs. L. H. Harris carried away the honors. Mr. Crump and Mrs. Harris have held the whist championship of Ray for the past three weeks. Wanted—Two good whist players in Ray. Miss Hazel Reed of El Paso, Texas, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Reed. She is accompanied by Miss Winnfield. Poor Ray met her Waterloo last Sunday at the hands of the Miami team. The game was hotly contested and baseball fans were given a run for their money. Davis, pitcher for the Ray team, fanned eight men, while the best Quinn of the Miami team could do was to strike out four men. The final score was 8 to 4 in favor of Miami. The game was far more interesting than the score indicates. Rev. W. J. Conquest, pastor of the People's A. M. E. Zion church in this city, made a flying trip to Phoenix this week to meet Bishop L. W. Kyles, who, with Presiding Elder E. M. Clark, spent several hours in that city while en route east.

The cry of wolf,iders will serve merely as an impulse, inside that is sure to come. While Cox to make President Wilson's fourteenth League of Nations down our the Harding and Coolidge are quietly get residency. It is barely possible that a hypodermic to the democratic candidate in great pain and we want them to truly as possible. Governor Cox of Ohio, the democratic candidate for president, evidently realizes the weakness of his party in the coming campaign, and is trying to befog the real issue with his cry of 'excessive slush funds.' They tell us that a man about to be drowned, will grab a straw, so we are of the opinion that Mr. Cox is ready to talk about anything that will take the minds of the people away from the real issues in this campaign. The republican chairman, Will Hays, played a mean trick on Governor Cox, when he aroused his ire to the extent that the exalted Mr. Cox used the short and ugly word. Chairman Hays should not have aroused the governor's anger, for 'tis said that: "Whom the Gods would destroy, they first make mad." Surely, it was not the desire or intention of the republican chairman to help Mr. Cox plan his own destruction. The real issues in this campaign are so big that it will be impossible for Mr. Cox or any one to hide them from the people. We want and must have a readjustment of things and conditions. We are headed in the wrong direction and must right-about-face, change our leader, select one of a different political faith and march in another direction. Seven years of democratic "misrule" has caused us to come to ourselves, and we are now ready to arise and go to our father's house where there is bread a-plenty and to spare. Nothing can stop the republicans from sweeping the country this fall. The cry of wolf, raised by the democratic leaders will serve merely as an impulse to the great republican landslide that is sure to come. While Cox and Roosevelt are trying to make President Wilson's fourteen points stand and force the League of Nations down our throats without reservations, Harding and Coolidge are quietly getting a death grip on the presidency. It is barely possible that we shall have to administer a hypodermic to the democratic candidates, for they evidently are in great pain and we want them to die as peacefully and quietly as possible. THE NEWSPAPER GAME We suppose there are more people who send the newspaper game than any other days we have people who have spent the most some other line of endeavor, come to manage a newspaper. In order to obtain knowledge of any trade or profession one simply himself to the same. We have seen twelve years in the newspaper business, runs, and for a person who had never manempt to run one would be courting distractions in the newspaper business that only those of the profession who have sat long years will bear me out in this. Tim said: "I am not as foolish as I look to be. as there are more people who think newspaper game than any other business, people who have spent the major part of endeavor, come to us with a newspaper. In order to obtain a any trade or profession one must not do the same. We have seen men who in the newspaper business, make some person who had never managed a one would be courting disaster. The newspaper business that only experience the profession who have sat behind the bear me out in this. Tim Owsley, but as foolish as I look to be." With We suppose there are more people who think they understand the newspaper game than any other business. Every few days we have people who have spent the major part of their lives in some other line of endeavor, come to us with advice on how to manage a newspaper. In order to obtain a comprehensive knowledge of any trade or profession one must need study and apply himself to the same. We have seen men who, after ten or twelve years in the newspaper business, make some awful blunders, and for a person who had never managed a newspaper to attempt to run one would be courting disaster. There are some things in the newspaper business that only experience can teach and those of the profession who have sat behind the gun for several years will bear me out in this. Tim Owsley, the comedian, said: "I am not as foolish as I look to be." With a slight variation, we will add that the newspaper game is not as easy as it looks to be. You can't tell a good man by the color of his skin; but you can tell a man of evil bent by the character of his deeds. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING LOCAL NEWS Motor Party to Tucson Messrs.

WE PAY $25.00 FOR $10.00 This is not a "get-rich-quick" scheme, but a bona fide, straight-forward business proposition. We represent the Commonwealth Casualty Company of Philadelphia, a million dollar corporation authorized to write sickness and accident insurance in Arizona. The policy costs $10 a year and in case of sickness or accident, we pay the insured $25 per week for a period of ten weeks, or should you be accidentally killed we will pay your beneficiary the sum of $5,000 and return all premium money paid in by you. In the past eighteen months, we have written over $300,000 worth of insurance in Arizona and not one dissatisfied customer is on our list. We have paid out hundreds of dollars in sick claims right here in Phoenix and stand ready to pay any legitimate claim that is presented against our Company. One thing about our Company that makes it so popular with policy holders is the fact that all "red tape" is eliminated and whenever a claim is presented it is always paid promptly. In addition to the $25 weekly sickness and accident benefits paid holders of our $10 policies, we pay $25 weekly hospital benefits, $150 for operation in case one is necessary, and $200 emergency relief. Our policies are the most liberal ever issued by any company, without assessments or dues, and sold to men and women of all nationalities, in all occupations, between the ages of 16 and 70 at the same low cost of $10 a year. The $10 policy is not the only one issued by this Company. We have a $16 policy and a $24 policy that pay larger benefits. This Company is twenty-seven years old and has total resources of more than $3,000,000. Don't take our word for it, write the Arizona Corporation Commission and have them verify our statement.

The Tribute on the Coast Following is an excerpt from a letter received this week from Mrs. J. A Johnson of Tempe, Arizona, who is now on the coast: "My health is much better and I am certainly enjoying Santa Barbara as it is a beautiful place. Have had to sleep under blankets ever since I left Tempe. When I leave Santa Barbara, I shall visit Los Angeles and other coast cities. Expect to return to Arizona as soon as my health will permit. Yes, we get the Tribune here and don't know what we would do without it. Trust all will have a nice time at the conference in Tucson. Glad to read of the free-will offering for the pastor Sunday, and am sorry I cannot be there. However, I suppose Mr. Johnson will be over from Tempe on that day. Regards to all members of Tanner chapel and tell them my health has improved wonderfully."

Pratt believes the rural schools are urgently in need of better supervision and better conditions. He sets forth his aims for their betterment in the following brief, concise form: "I want a chance to help in the uplift and betterment of the rural schools. "To get that chance, I have become a candidate for state superintendent of public instruction. "I want every Republican who sees this notice, to vote for my nomination in the primary, Sept. 7th. "I want every Republican who cares anything about the schools of this state, to get every possible vote for me in the primary, Sept. 7th. "I have taught school twenty years and practiced law ten years. "I have successfully built up three school systems. "My preparatory education was obtained in high school, two normal schools and Harvard University. "I am an expert in rural schools. "I am an expert in child psychology and in child development. "Give me a chance to build up the rural schools of Arizona. "The rural schools need about twice as much money as they are getting. "The rural schools need about twice as good teachers as they have been getting. "If I am elected state superintendent, I will give the rural schools many times the attention that the rural schools in this state have ever received. "There are about 400 rural schools in Arizona. "There are about 8,000 pupils in the rural schools of Arizona. "These schools and these pupils are not receiving, and never have received, anything adequate in the way of educational facilities. "I repeat here the first of the three principles upon which is founded the Arizona League of Class Room Teachers, which I organized in February of this year: "Every child in Arizona is entitled to as good an education as every other child in Arizona, regardless of the social position of his parents, or the place of his parents' domicile. "If you care anything for the schools, vote for me in the primary. "If you care anything for the schools, get other Republicans to vote for me in the primary. "If I am elected school superintendent, I will do more for the rural schools than ever has been done in this state before, by anyone. "LINWOOD S. PRATT, "Candidate for the Republican Nomination for State Superintendent of Public Instruction." SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1920 There will be the regular services at the C. M. E. church Sunday, Sept. 5.

In short, in legislation, debate, and work in the Executive Departments, because of his wide acquaintance, influence, experience, ability and familiarity with methods of procedure. Senator Mark A. Smith is enabled to secure the best results possible for the State of Arizona. The following record will show, as a minority member, under Republican Rule, his standing in the Senate.

It would take years of labor for any new member to accomplish what now is available by renominating and sending back to the United States Senate, the HONORABLE MARK A. SMITH, the man that has been tried and not found wanting. Secretary, U. S. Senator Mark A. Smith's Headquarters. Regular Services New Pastor Here Rev. C. H.
