No. 29 PLANS TO PROMOTE HARMONY BETWEEN BLACKS AND WHITES On the 18th and 19th of November the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will hold its annual meeting at Washington, D. C. This will be a convocation of teachers throughout the United States now giving attention to research and instruction in this field. The management of the association is endeavoring to make this meeting one of the most representative ever assembled. The purpose of this organization is to collect sociological and historical documents, to publish books on Negro life and history, to promote studies in this field through clubs and schools and finally to bring about more harmony between the races by interpreting the one to the other. The reports of the work accomplished by the association during the past year will be made, further plans for the more successful prosecution of the work will be devised, and a number of instructive addresses will be delivered by the most distinguished men of the country. Among the speakers will be, A. B. Hart, professor of history at Harvard university; Franz Boas, professor of Ethnology, Columbia university; L. Hollingsworth Wood, president of the Urban league; Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of the "Nation," and Col. Robert T. Kerlin of the Virginia Military institute. These addresses will occur every phase of Negro life and history. During the past year the association has succeeded in extending the circulation of the Journal of Negro History, stimulated research in this long neglected field and published a number of informing works of a serious scientific nature. How this movement may be more successfully promoted so as to direct attention to this large group of population in this country and abroad will be one of the important questions before the association. The association was organized in Chicago, September 9, 1915; incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia, October 3, 1915. Lought out the Journal of Negro History January 1, 1916, and since that time has extended its circulation into all parts of the world. The important results have been to direct the attention of investigators to the study of the Negro and to secure for the race a hearing in circles sometimes considered exclusive. The movement needs a decided increase in revenue to extend the work by employing trained investigators and adequate funds for publishing the results of their researches. To this end the co-operation of all is earnestly solicited. Persons not in a position to make large contributions can support the movement to the extent of an active membership fee of $3.00 a year or can give a subscription to the Journal of Negro History which is only $2.00 a year.

To Our Readers No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern. When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment. Go Where You Are Invited ```markdown ``` (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Oct. 14.—Two hundred Chinese students arrived in Chicago They are the annual group sent here under the auspices of the Chinese Government and the United States Commissioner of Education, and to prove they are really students, "just like Americans," their party boasted of the following items, to wit: 417 pennant bespattered suitcases, resembling all things from trunks to vanity cases; 97 pairs horn-rimmed spectacles, one dog in a wicker case, 47 Chinese yells, 199 crusher hats. Pittsburgh, Pa., Oct. 14.—There was a clash between whites and colored here recently when a white man, who jostled a colored woman on the street, refused to apologize. The man was arrested, and a mob of several hundred attacked the Center avenue police station in an effort to get at two white men arrested in connection with the disturbance. A general riot call was sent in and order was restored. One of the members of the crowd remarked: "We believe in law and order, but we are weary of seeing it a one-sided affair. The white people are all the time talking about respect for their women, which is fair enough, but we have come to the time and place where we are going to have our share of respect for our women. "A colored woman of respectability can hardly go down town without some white man insulting her. Frequently such a woman is the wife or daughter of one of our leading citizens. This condition is not confined to Pittsburgh, but everywhere, and in the South it is beyond description. All of us should respect all women everywhere, and then trouble will stop." Dr. Leroy Bundy of East St. Louis, delivered a lecture to the people of Pasadena on Oct. 5, and we heard the true story of his trials and persecution. Did we believe and did we sympathize with him? Well, to show you that the people of Pasadena are loyal, they gave Dr. Bundy the sum of $500.62 in cash. He left this week for Phoenix where on Thursday night he will speak to the people of that city. Bishop W. A. Fountain preached for us at the A. M. E. church last Sunday and all were made to rejoice. The bishop is an able pulpit orator and was well received by the people of this city. While here he was the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. James Lowe in North Vernon avenue. Rev. J. L. Cooper arrived in Pasadena last Wednesday to accept the pastorate of the First A. M. E. church. Welcome to our city, Rev. Cooper. You will find the best people in California right here in Pasadena.

JAP QUESTION LOOMS BIG ON POLITICAL HORIZON (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Oct. 14.—The Japanese situation, which seems to have resolved itself down to a question of color, and which is being watched most closely by the colored people of America, is growing more tense each day. One of the most remarkable utterances yet made, and which carries a quotation from one of the Japanese newspapers, has been published by the Chicago Tribune. The dispatch comes from Tokio, and says: "A section of the Japanese press is growing more vitriolic toward America despite the urings of many publicists for calmness. "The Yorodzu, a prominent opposition paper, in commenting editorially on the fact that the Los Angeles Times has joined the San Francisco press in an anti-Japanese policy, says Americans are now attempting to force Japan to fight, whether she likes it or not." In part, the editorial says: "We never dreamed that America would go to such lengths of selfishness and aggression so soon after the war. We are unable to remain calm when the United States is showing herself to be such a hypocrite, a wolf in sheep's clothing, a monster masquerading as an angel. "After trampling Haiti and Sam Domingo under-foot, she now attempts interference in Saghalien, incites a revolt in Corea, and stirs up hostility on the part of China toward Japan. At such a rate America's attitude to Japan will soon be worse than it is to the blacks. It is no wonder that Japanese blood has reached the boiling point." The Kokumin demands that publicity be given to every step in the present negotiations, saying that nothing can be gained in keeping the nation ignorant of America's true intentions. MORE PROOF OF THE PULLING POWER OF TRIBUNE ADS Following is an excerpt from a letter received this week from one of our advertisers. It is self-explanatory and no comment is necessary. The letter follows: Phoenix, Ariz., Oct. 11, 1920. Mr. A. R. Smith, Editor of the Phoenix Tribune: Dear Sir—I am glad to inform you that I have found that it pays to advertise in your splendid journal. It sold for our office this week a valuable piece of property to Mr. George H. Brown of Ajo, Ariz. He states that your paper gave him the satisfactory information concerning his good purchase. He intends improving and when improved as he has designed his income derived from his investment will pay a net interest on $30,000.00. I am proud to have met a gentleman of his type. M. H. SHELTON. 215 West Washington St. SENTENCE OF RIOTERS IN STATE OF ARK. UPHELD BY COURT Washington, Oct. 14.—Conviction of Frank Moore and five other Negroes, who have been sentenced to death for participation in a race riot in Phillips county, Arkansas, last October, will stand as a result of the refusal of the supreme court to review their cases. (By The Associated Negro Press) Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 14.—In line with efforts to obtain social and political equality, encouragement may be given to the foundation of a Negro fraternity on Eighteenth avenue, in the exclusive residence district of Ohio State University. Objection to the proposition is held to be due to partisan propaganda, it is said. They may appeal to the Republican leaders to obtain for them the right to establish their fraternity under the law.

It was a game of many features, sparkling end runs, brilliant broken field running and hard smashes through the line, combining with frequent attempts at the basketball style of play to give rooters a real afternoon of action. Alumni hopes for a one sided victory were early exploded by the stonewall defense of their less experienced and lighter opponents and an offense that was as effective as it was surprising. In fact, for a few minutes during the first period it looked all Coyote. A well-sustained drive swept the Alumni off their feet, carried the ball into the very shadows of their goal and then across the lime-white mark for the first counter of the game. That was enough for half a dozen of the old-timers, who weared perceptibly under the terrific driving power of the high school machine. Substitutes went into the game in a procession—almost a steady stream, it seemed. Freshened by the appearance of so many new players, the Alumni took a decided brace, began rushing the ball, and before the half was completed had shoved two men across for touch-downs. Coach Robinson's men had at least half a dozen excellent scoring chances, but after their first launch across the goal line, seemed to lack the driving power needed to put across another marker. Twice during the last half the Coyotes were within their opponents' ten-yard line, only to lose the ball on downs or on attempts to use the forward pass. Three other times they were within the twenty-yard line. The excessive heat, however, worked a greater disadvantage to the high school players than to the Alumni, primarily because Coach Robinson did not have half enough substitutes to keep pace with the changes made by the stars of days gone by. Nearly three full teams were employed by the veterans to score their victory. At rushing the ball the Coyotes suffered little in comparison to the Alumni. At open style of play they were far superior, successfully launching a half-dozen forward passes. One was intercepted and probably 10 were grounded. The Alumni failed to make connections once at the ball-heaving style. Coach Robinson introduced to Phoenix fans a colored youth named Rosser who in line-plunging ability excels anything turned out at the local school in seasons. Rosser's work in the opening game—his first in interscholastic circles—was easily the outstanding feature, especially from the Coyote standpoint. His line-plunging was equally as brilliant as that of Peters for the Alumni. He hits the line low and hard, picks his holes readily and is not easily thrown. He plowed for yards time after time yesterday with two or three tacklers at his side. He's a hard man to stop, forms fairly good interference for his backs and is in the game every minute, fighting for every inch of ground. But his offensive work was no more brilliant than his defensive play. He was in every scrimmage, it seemed, invariably stopping the opposition before or after it had plowed through the line. Gilliland, captain and Joy, half-backs, shared honors with Rosser from a Coyote standpoint. It is Gilliland's brilliant dash around end that put the ball in scoring position in the first quarter. Rosser then plowed through guard for a touchdown on the first play. Peters, captain of the Alumni; Lyall, Duncan, Corpstein and Gorall played good ball for the veterans.

MOTON OBJECTS TO FAMILIAR TERM USED BY-SOUTHERNERS (By The Associated Negro Press) Clarksville, Tenn., Oct. 14.—Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, in a very courteous but frank manner let the editor of the Memphis Commercial Appeal (white) know that the terms "darkey" and "nigger," so frequently used by Southerners, is very offensive to self-respecting colored people. The editor had preceded Dr. Moton in a public meeting as a speaker and in the course of his remarks used the terms. When Dr. Moton arose to speak, he said: "The time has passed when the colored people appreciate the term "darkey" or "nigger" from a white man." ELITE CAFE GROWING MORE POPULAR DAILY "If you have a friend who is just and true, never forsake the old for the new." The Elite Cafe, 140 South Second street, which opened for business several months ago has a large and growing patronage and ranks among the leading restaurants of this city. The place was opened by Messrs. Potts, Jones and Lucas, who conducted it for a time and Mr. Potts and Mr. Lucas sold their interest-to Mrs. D. Kendricks, who, with Mr. Jones, are now proprietors of the Elite. Since Mrs. Kendricks has become connected with the establishment, a new order prevails and you are now served by courteous and polite waitresses. The culinary department is presided over by Mrs. Kendricks herself, and the old fashioned, home cooking like your mothers used to prepare, is what you will find in the Elite. On last Sunday the special dinner consisted of, chicken fricasse, june peas, mashed potatoes, corn on cob, fruit salad, hot corn bread, sweet potato, custard pie, ice cream and cake, ice tea, coffee and milk. Mrs. Kendricks is well known in this community and has an enviable reputation as a culinary artist.

GLOBE- MIAMI GLOBE- MIAMI (By Miss Modesta Young) The colored people of Globe-Miami district have organized a Harding and Coolidge Club and are bringing things to pass. Rev. Manse of Globe preached two splendid sermons last Sunday and all were pleased with his discourse. Mrs. Nellie Scott is a new arrival in the city. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Plummer are new arrivals in the city and will reside with their brother. Mr. L. P. Scurlock is overjoyed by the arrival of his mother who has come to spend a few weeks with him. Miss Lorenza Scurlock was the happy recipient of a beautiful piano from her father on the occasion of her 'steenth birthday. Mrs. Corine Mosley and daughter, Miss Martha Mosley, left last week for a visit with friends in other parts of the state. Members of St. John Baptist church are working hard to clear the church of all indebtedness. The largest amount is expected to be raised in the great rally on Sunday, October 17. Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Plummer, Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Bates of Miami were Sunday visitors in Globe. Miss Alberta Johnson of Lake Charles, La., spent several days in Miami, the guest of Mrs. E. L. Bates. Mr. Wm. Redix and Miss Johnson were quietly married on Monday night, October 4. On Tuesday evening, a bridge party was given in their honor at the home of Mrs. Bates. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. A. Hawkins, Mr. and Mrs. Ashon Plummer, Mr. and Mrs. Ray, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Plummer, Mr. Jimerson, Mr. Geo. Redix and Mr. Austin. After the game, a delightful banquet was served and greatly enjoyed. Mrs. Bates then introduced the guests to Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Redix, which proved a genuine surprise to all. The newly weds will make their home in Globe. HAIR AND BEAUTY SPECIALIST OPENS ESTABLISHMENT HERE Ladies of this community will rejoice to learn that they now have an opportunity to consult one of the most skilled hair and beauty culturists that has ever come to this city. Mrs. Susie Williams, of 1110 East Jefferson street, a graduate of the Lelia College of Hair and Beauty culture of Indianapolis, Ind., has opened parlors at her home and is now ready to receive customers. Besides being a graduate of the Lelia College, Mrs. Williams has had years of experience in the manufacturing of hair goods. She is an expert at weaving, making wigs, transformations, puffs and all the latest additions to the hair that ladies are wearing. For seven years Mrs. Williams has given much of her time to the manufacturing part of the business and at this she is very efficient. The Mme, C. J. Walker System of hair and beauty culture is used by her and to ladies who have used the Mme. Walker goods, nothing more needs to be said. Mme. C. J. Walker discovered this remedy in 1905 and it proved so popular and moritorious that in a few years her fame had spread abroad. Thousands of women, North, South, East and West, and even in foreign countries, are living testimonials of the merits of the Mme. Walker Hair Grower. Madam Walker amassed a fortune from the sale of her remedies and today the Walker Manufacturing Company of Indianapolis, Ind., is the largest institution of its kind in the world. Since the death of Mme. Walker, her daughter has had charge of the business and it is growing and expanding each year. Mrs. Williams believes that every woman owes it to herself to appear at her best at all times. The scriptures tell us that the "Glory of a woman is her hair", and Mrs. Williams is prepared to send forth the women of this community in all their glory. HON. HARRY DEAN DELIVERED SPLENDID LECTURE ON AFRICA livered an interesting lecture on Africa, last Saturday night at Dorris hall. His lecture, which was illustrated by sterioptican views, dealt principally with the Negro Republic of Liberia. He stated that Liberia was rich in natural resources and that the greatest need of that country was a steamship line that would make possible the interchange of commerce between other countries and Liberia. Dr. Dean is en route to San Diego, Cal., and proposes to establish a Nautical college at that point and will teach colored men the art of navigation. He then proposes to establish a steamship company and will operate between San Diego, Cal., and Monrovia, Africa. He is very enthusiastic about the plan and succeeded in interesting a number of Phoenix people in the project. $110,000 BANK STACK SOLD IN FIVE MONTHS TO COLORED PEOPLE $110,000 BANK STACK SOLD IN FIVE MONTHS TO COLORED PEOPLE (By The Associated Negro Press) Louisville, Ky., Oct. 14.—The First Standard Bank of this place has made what is believed to be a record among colored people in the United States. Its entire stock, representing capital and surplus of $110,000.00, has been sold in less than five months. In other words, colored people themselves have bought up the entire capital stock within less than five months—not one dollar of stock having been sold to white-persons. So far as available records show, there is no other corporation among colored people that has ever approached this record. Wilson S. Lovett is business agent of the First Standard. The bolder the highwayman the sooner he undertakes one too many jobs. The trade union movement, true to its history, its tradition, and aspirations, has done, is doing, and will undoubtedly do more for the welfare of mankind than all other agencies combined. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year JUST HEADED NORTH IS WAY CONDUCTOR EXPLAINED EXODUS (By The Associated Negro Press) Jackson, Miss., Oct. 14.—A Jackson man (white) who recently made a trip over the Illinois Central railroad to the northern part of the state, says when the train reached Grenada, he noticed a great crowd of Negroes got abroad. He appealed to the conductor to know where so many Negroes were going, and was told that they were "just headed North." The conductor explained that it was nothing unusual for 50 to 250 Negroes to go North on his train every trip, some getting on at other stations, but that the majority of them boarded the train at Grenada. These, he stated, were all from the Delta. They told him that crops were mighty short and that they saw no use staying there to gather what they had made for just their feed, when they could get out and go to St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and other cities of the North and get wages amounting to from $3 to $5 per day. There is no doubt this exodus has assumed great proportions, and that the Negroes are leaving Mississippi by the thousands. Hinds county has lost about 7000 in population in the last ten months. A great many of the Negroes left the hill sections of the state for the Delta, but now that the boll weevil is making its presence felt on the great cotton plantations bordering on the river, they are moving again. So far little effort has been made to stem the tide of emigration, and the labor problem is one with which the state is going to have to wrestle in the near future more diligently even than now, it appears. (By The Associated Negro Press) Macon, Ga., Oct. 14.—Rev. Dr. Wm. Russell Owen, white, pastor of the First Baptist church of this city, recently returned from the North, where he visited Atlantic City and other points. He became so "alarmed" at what he saw in the way of social justice to the people that he rushed into print with an interview as soon as he returned and has been "sounding a warning" to the people through his pulpit, based on the things he says he saw. In one of his interviews, he said: "The North is in for a bad spell with the Negro problem. I found on this trip more growing hatred between the races in the North than one ever discovers in the South. Negro cooks and maids in some cases are making as much as $25 a week. There is a growing inter-marriage between the whites and blacks and a flaming race hatred. The whites are losing the tolerant spirit that looked upon the blacks as the wards of the northern states to be protected. Now the question is the old question, as old as Moses, of racial antipathy. Negroes at Atlantic City now have possession of several of the most prominent parts of the bathing beach." The United States is to life the ban on the importation of rubles. But, alas, the ban on rubles still continues. American doctors may stamp out bubonic plague in Vera Cruz but they cannot hope to cure Mexicans of striking.

The United States has produced a good crop of wheat—an abundance for domestic use and a goodly store for export. It has a record crop of corn, far greater than is necessary for domestic needs. A new process of sugar manufacture, it is claimed, will convert corn to nice white sugar at a cost of four cents a pound, and doubtless some of it will be thus utilized; which is a very comforting announcement to consumers, although demoralizing to the profiteers. We have an abundance of POTATOES and grains of all kinds, and the greatest crop of tobacco the country has ever produced. Why Worry? We can now smoke our pipes in peace and live upon the fat of the land. The women will run the political machine, and man will have little to do but work. The days of profiteers are numbered. The old law of supply and demand will regulate the business of the country, and the get-rich-quick leeches, who have taken bread from the mouths of the needy, the widow and the orphan, will not be able to continue their, "hold-ups" and robberies. The supply is too great fgr them to handle, and there is some in the kitchen gardens that is out of their control. Election day soon will be here and those of our group who have been engaged in "watchful waiting", will be given the opportunity to strike the fatal blow. Some writers tell us that we should support the man and not the party and that only ignorant Negroes vote Republican ticket straight. Many of these same writers in appealing to their readers urge them to vote the Democratic ticket straight; further, they reason, "a democrat is one who votes the Democratic ticket." Do you see the inconsistency in their argument? Democrats are urged to vote their ticket straight, but Republicans should learn to split their vote and support the man and not the party. Inconsistency, thou art a jewel. They reason that the worst Democrat is more to be a desired than the best Republican, still they will not permit us to reason likewise. On election day, we shall see, whether or not Republicans are as foolish as they are supposed to be. If only ignorant Negroes vote the Republican ticket, then we must say that "ignorance is bliss."

J. Williams Clifford, Special Representative Colored Soldiers and Sailors' War Risk Bureau, Washington, D. C. Now that the insurance business in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance is current, assurance is made that colored former servicemen, or their relatives and friends who wrote to this office, will receive prompt and definite replies. It is supposed that the colored veterans of the recent war who carried government life insurance while in the service may reinstate the same by forwarding two monthly premiums and a satisfactory statement to the effect that they are in as good health as they were at the time of their discharge from the service. This may be done at any time within eighteen months from the date of discharge, but since a man should never be without life insurance protection, it is advisable for former servicemen to reclaim their valuable government life insurance at once. A new law has made government life insurance exceptionally attractive by enlarging the list of permitted beneficiaries to include parent, grandparent, step-parent, parent through adoption, wife, or husband, child, grandchild, step-child, adopted child, brother, sister, half-brother, brother through adoption, sister through adoption, step-brother, step-sister, uncle aunt, nephew, niece, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, a person who has stood in the relation of a parent to the insured for a period of one year or more prior to the insured's enlistment or induction, the children of such parent; parent, grandparent, step-parent; or parent through adoption of the insured's wife or husband. It is also supposed that the new law which permits lump sum payments at the option of the insured or converted policies (ordinary life, twenty-payment life, thirty-payment life, twenty-year endowment, thirty-year endowment, and endowment maturing at the age of $2) will greatly increase the number of conversions into the permanent forms of government life insurance. Any additional information desired by colored veterans of the world war concerning insurance compensation, allotment and allowance, may be promptly obtained by directing communications to Lieut. J. Williams Clifford, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Washington, D. C. The restiny of labor depends upon labor itself. Your power lies in your own brains and bodies.

PURPLE DREAMS ing to render the opening more grin and sinister. The girl shrank back, but the fellow still holding her tightened his grip. Cateras' thin lips smiled, and he bowed, hat in hand, hatefully polite. "Go ahead with the light, Silva; not too fast, my man; the room beyond the senor's. Now, Merodez, release the girl. "Ah, so you can stand alone, senorita; that is well. Step in here, ahead of me, and follow the lantern—there is nothing to fear." She hesitated, and the smile on the Mexican's lips changed into a cruel grin. "Shall I make you again?" "No, senor." "Then you will do as I bid." "Yes, senor; I cannot resist." The passage was clean and dry, and seemed to lead directly back into the cliff. The faint light revealed the side walls and low roof, and the girl, again partially mistress of herself, recognized the nature of the rock to be limestone. Her view was limited to the slight radius illuminated by the lantern, and even within that small area, her own shadow, and those of the three men, helped render everything indistinct. They had turned a sharp corner, and advanced a few feet beyond when the man with the lantern stopped suddenly, and held it up to permit the light to stream full on the exposed wall to the right. Another of these odd slits in the rock was visible here, and the girl was able to perceive more clearly its nature—beyond question It was an artificial opening, leading into a space on the further side of the wall. Cateras pushed past the girl, his body interfering with her view, and bent down, fumbling along the rock surface. "Hold the light closer," he commanded. "Aye, that it's. 'Tis some trick to find the thing—Ah! now I have it." It seemed like a bit of wood, so resembling the color of the rock as to be practically imperceptible to the eye in that dim light—a bit of wood which slid back to reveal a heavy iron bolt, shot firmly into the stone. This the Mexican forced back and an opening yawned in the side wall, the rays of the lantern revealing the interior of a black cave. Cateras stepped within. "Bring the woman," he commanded shortly, "and you, Merodez, see first to the light." Silva thrust her forward, his grip no light one, while the other struck a match and applied it to the wick of a lamp occupying a bracket beside the doorway. As this caught the full interior was revealed beneath the_sickly glow, a cell-like place, although of a fair size, unfurnished except for a rude bench, and one three-legged stool, the floor of stone, and the sides and roof apparently of the same solid structure. It was gloomy, bare, horrible in its dreariness a veritable grave. The girl covered her face with her hands, appalled at the sight, unnerved at the thought of being left alone in such a place. Cateras saw the movement, and laughed, gazing about carelessly. "Some boudolr, senorita," he said meaningly. "Well, we will see what P. "Some Boudoir, Senorita," He Said Meaningly. can be done for you later. Perhaps a few hours in such a hole may work a miracle. When I come again you will be glad to see even me. I'll leave you to think it over; then, I'll come back for an answer. Until then, senorita, adios." The fellow lifted his hat, and stepped back into the passage, his manner insolent. She remained motionless, contempt in her eyes, but in truth hopeless and crushed. Silva closed the door silently, although her ears caught the click of the bolt when it was shot home.

Statements From Campbell's Flagstaff Address We find ourselves today in this State with the grant generously given to us by the nation of over 10,000,000 acres of land, exhausted. - ee rs We have reached a point now where some very definite policy must be nut into effect so that you, the users, may know exactly what right and privileges you may enjoy in leasing, and be not further harassed, as I know you have been for some years past, by an indefinite policy. ee. a ett we : The State lands should be administered for the wel- fare of the whole people of the State, and not a particular group. BEN! hie 1 ene It was the intention of the Legislature that no one, after a lease had been issued, would be barred from an op- nortunitv to present an application for that land and have the eauities adjudicated by the Commissioner, nor forego the privilege of an application to purchase it. Yet that is the condition that confronts us today with reference to the cancelled leases. And that is the reason whv the appli- cations for leases for some 1,300,000 acres made my some twenty-five or thirty applicants, are now beirtg held up in the Land Department. ” Ree rates If the land.is only worth one cent an acre for grazing purposes, that is all that vou men should pay for it: if it is worth 10 cents an acre to you in your business, then you should pay that much for it. Pee ac wae We have hundreds of thousands of acres under lease at three cents ver acre, that, in my opinion, have no greater value than that; that you can’t afford to buy at the mini- mum valuation placed on it by the Enabling Act. Any time that the lease fees may be increased, you can’t afford to , use it. Aes Shae No state and country, my friends, ever came into its own so long as its lands were locked up in perpetuity for any one particulay business. ew Ee ae I Warn you earnestly and with only friendliness for yourselves and your associations, that you are riding to a fall if vou insist, either through administration or through legislation, upon trving to tie up the heritage of the people of this State indefinitely for your own purposes. oe) @ fees A I am absolutely opposed to the leasing of the public domain to speculators. oS i, Week So long as I maintain the position which I do at the present time, every rightful interest. and everv honest effort in vour business. and your industry, will be pre- served so far as it is within my power to do so.

The mines are a wasting asset. Sree ie we These***lands***the state board has been through the issuance of dummy leases in one holding delivering for a long term of years to a few big outfits. te *# ee ee Maiy million acres have been turned over to big hold- ers, freezing out the small homesteader and preventing intensive development. ; Ae eer ene Some months ago I discovered that-the State land de- partment was cancelling these dummy leases and consoli- dating large blocks of land in the names of the big outfits who had made use of the dummies. eee eee There are many such lands in Arizona, but if we tie them up in leases for an indefinite period and at a nominal rental, what chance will the service man have to get his rightful share of this heritage? see eee These leases had been going to the old holders with- out competition usually at three cents an acre. Conditions in the land department had become intoler- a ‘et ee es These lands cannot be made to produce revenues for the sunnort of our schools by tying them up into a few vast estates and leasing them, for a song for an indefinite period. ee ee ee My fight is to obtain for the people of this state an opportunity for home building. 66-6) eee Those who are trying to exploit, this heritage and to gobble it up for their own use are robbing every man, woman and child in Arizona. : 8 ee ee As your governor I have been on the minority on the land board or this vicious leasing system would have been changed. ++ + # #8 Mv opponent for governor with the support ‘of the present treasurer has succeeded in continuing in effect this volicy by which a few outfits are gobbing up this =e heri- tage and closing the door of onportunity to thousands of new citizens who are coming into this state, at the same time robbing YOU of the rightful revenue which you should be receiving.
