LEROY BUNDY STILL AT LIBERTY ON $78,000 BONDS (By The Associated Negro Press). East St. Louis, Ill., Oct. 30.—For the fourth time a plea for clemency for four of the colored men convicted of murder in connection with the East St. Louis race riots of four years ago were heard and taken under advisement by the State division of pardons and paroles yesterday. Clemency is asked for Dee Smotherman, Horace Thomas, Geo. Roberts and Fayette Roberts, all of whom were convicted of murder. These men were charged with having been members of the mob which shot and killed Detective Coppedge and Wadley, the crime which set the match to the race rioting. Those four men, together with 11 others, were sentenced to 15 years. Dr. Leroy Bundy was convicted at the same time and is now out on bonds pending hearing of his appeal. ERNEST R. HALL LOGICAL MAN FOR SECTY. OF STATE Among the candidates on the Republican ticket for state office Ernest R. Hall, candidate for secretary of state, presents a record as clean as that of any man on the ticket and is deserving of your full support. Here is his record: Twenty years a citizen of Arizona. Two years editing and publishing a weekly newspaper. One year in territorial secretary's office. Six years prospecting and mining in Maricopa, Yavapai, Yuma and Mohave counties. Nine years ranching (testing over 200 varieties of fruits, grains and vegetables.) One term in state senate from Maricopa county, resigning to enlist as private in 27th engineers, serving seven months in France. One year with state highway department as general foreman of Clifton-Solomonville and Mesa-Superior projects; and for 18 years has been a taxpayer of Arizona. Salina, Kansas, Will Now Have Segregated Schools (By The Associated Negro Press). Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 0.—Segregation of schools has been decided upon for Salina. The board of education last night adopted such a resolution and announced it soon will go before the council and ask a special election to vote bonds, the sum not yet determined, for the purpose of erecting a separate school for Negro pupils. FLAGSTAFF By Mrs. Estelle Wallace. Rev. R. E. Lewis, pastor of the First Baptist church in this city, was the only delegate from Arizona to attend the National Baptist convention in Indianapolis, Ind., and he was elected vice president for the state of Arizona. He, with 200 other delegates from the convention went to Maysville to meet the new governor. He also visited in Washington, D. C. While in the national capital he visited his brother whom he had not seen for 15 years. He also visited in Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia. Mrs. W. L. Horne, Miss Naomi Tabron and Mr. George Austin went horseback riding to San Frico peaks last Sunday. Mr. S. L. White and Mr. A. J. Davis went duck hunting Saturday and brought home 14 ducks. Miss Lizzle Barnett, after having spent a month in recreation and rest, will resume her work this week. Saving the race at so much per month is small and cheap business. Some men took mother-in-laws, others had mother-in-laws thrust upon them. REPUBLICANS BOUND TO WIN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION TUESDAY (By The Associated Negro Press). Chicago, Oct. 30.—The campaign for president of the United States is at an end. The day of decision is at hand. What is the answer? Warren G. Harding for president and Calvin Coolidge for vice-president is the general prediction. They are American sons of Ohio and Massachusetts. They will be elected because the American people are heartily weary with Wilson rule, and for the further reason that the American people have developed a state of mind favorable to a larger realization of human justice. They have not gotten it, and they dare not anticipate it under Democratic rule, according to the trend of thought. In this situation the American colored people occupy a most unique position. In many places the position is both delicate and distasteful, and yet the Republican party, under the leadership of Harding and Coolidge, is assuming the responsibility with a grim determination that bespeaks victory. The Associated Negro Press in previous political surveys has announced the fact that in certain sections Democrats are appealing for Negro votes. In a few places they are coming out into the open, and in others they are working under cover seeking votes, while through their organizations they are resorting to some of the most dastardly political propaganda ever used in political campaigns. Farmer-Labor Party Place Colored Woman On National Ticket Hartford, Conn., Oct. 30. — The Farmer-Labor party of this congressional district has nominated Mrs. Mary Seymore, a Negro woman, for representative in congress. Mrs. Seymore claims to be a full-blooded Negro and is declared to be, by all the citizens of Hartford, one of the ablest women in this section of the state. She is making a vigorous effort to be elected and is making impressive talks for the working class. AGED RECLUSE PAYS $30,500 HEART BALM Pittsburg Cashier Accepts After Three Court Trials Pittsburg, Oct. 29.—To compensate her for the heart pains and the mental anguish she suffered, Henry Deniston, 84-year-old recluse, who has accumulated a fortune estimated to exceed $2,000,000, has paid to Miss Nettie M. Richardson, formerly employed as a cashier in a hotel, $30,500 as a settlement of the half-million-dollar breach of promise suit she filed against him. The case was tried three different times, the court setting aside the first verdict of $170,000, and the two subsequent trials resulted in disagreements. The fourth trial was to have started next Monday. NO PROFITEERING WILL BE PERMITTED IN PHONIX DURING STATE FAIR "All visitors to the State Fair, November 8 to 13, inclusive, will be adequately cared for in Phoenix," the Chamber of Commerce of this city announces. Already steps have been taken to determine the housing facilities of the city, and to list all available space for the benefit of out-of-town visitors. Advertisements have been run in the newspapers requesting private families to list their spare rooms for the occasion. Hotel keepers and restaurant owners have pledged themselves not to increase their rates during fair week, and to see that there will be no profiteering. Railroads will grant special reduced rates from all points of the state, making possible a record attendance for the 1920 fair. We shall know much in November ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER Black Man Seeks Place On Board Of Education In Louisville, Kentucky (By The Associated Negro Press). Louisville, Ky., Oct. 0.-The Colored people of this city have launched the candidacy of Wilson Lovett for a place on the local board of education. His petition has been filed with 57 more than the required number of names. It is proposed to "single shoot" the colored vote for him and thereby make sure of his election. There is also considerable sentiment against the University of Louisville bond issue. It is very probable that the corored vote will be cast against the issue. VOICE OF THE PEOPLE To Independent Voters of our race: Not all who wear little American flags in their coat lapel and take off their hats when the Star Spangled Banner is played are loyal Americans. When a man gets right in his own heart and feels a burning desire of appreciation of this wonderful land of freedom, who convinces himself that this is the best country on earth, then he is ready for outward demonstration and not before. Patriotism is something like religion, it must be felt in) demonstrated in the human heart. From demonstration arrives thought, and thought arrives action. It was from the thought that caused Lincoln to his course before the independent voters of America. As he stated, and if elected, they would confer a favor upon him. He (L) would be unremitting in his labor to compensate. If the action of that same independent voter that placed Abe humble; at the heart of the greatest country of the universe. The same golden rule is applicable to you today. The same victory is to be achieved, the same law of compensation. May our future not have to lament that you neglect it. It was that same thought that aroused John Brown at Harpers ferry and the action that caused General Sheridan to make that ride from Winchester to Mt. Vernon and turned defeat into victory. It was the reflection of these thoughts that caused the firing of hand in motion that moved the pen that recoil of this gun that pe' Lincoln's hand in motion that moved pen that declared you should be free and independent voters a privilege which you now enjoy, and for which every African American should be proud, but every action must have its driving power. It was the directing hand of that omnipotent power furnished by the prayers of that hoary haired mother of ours from 1619 to 1861, when the great results were to be obtained, which action you will put into action next Tuesday. May every dear and venerated shadow of those departed mothers, load down with anxiety upon each of you and see that you do not deviate for a moment from any of their principles for which they prayed so long and earnestly. The value of life is to improve over conditions. If you don't like the stars in Old Glory, if you don't like the red, white and blue, don't be like the snake in the story, don't bite the hand that has led you from the chains of slavery, the gate of hell up to the independent voters whom Mr. Harding appeals to on next Tuesday. You have six fellow workmen, their names are how, why, when, and what, where and who. By placing your cross in front of the right man, why for better protection, prosperity. When next Tuesday. What, your ballot. Where, at the ballot box. Who, Harding and Campbell, Cameron and Stodard. Ashville, N. C., Oct. 30.—James Shelton, Negro, was arrested and held by the local police as a suspect in the case of the robbery of the home of J. T. Horney of a large quantity of jewelry. Shelton declares his innocence in the matter and the police have slight evidence to convict him ofo the crime. A league for Fair Play would serve the country better than a League of Nations. PLURIBUS UNUM WHO CAN TELL WHAT ELECTION DAY WILL MEAN TO HIS PARTY? (By Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 29.-On the threshold of one of the greatest national elections, the people of our group are looking to the future. They are shaping their ideas for the things to follow. After the election, what? With the election of the Republican ticket, all minds, will turn to March 4th, the day of inauguration, and the formal displacement of eight years of Democratic rule. Those who have been active in directing the votes will assume new responsibilities in advising with the administration on subjects that affect our problems. The times will call for a high degree of statesmanship and unselfishness. There will naturally be a distribution of political wards, but the kind of leadership that is most essential makes jobs secondary and interests first. It is believed that there are many who have been active in the campaign look at the matter exactly from that point of view. A Republican administration will be a bitter pill for many sections of the south. From the day the results are announced will begin an effort to discredit Republican efforts. The age old cries of "Negro Domination," and "Social Equality," will get front page stories and "sorious" editorial expressions. The south, however, is in an economic quandary. The more conservative are decrying the wild immigrations of the radicals. If the south is to survive and thrive, it must have labor. Because of their deeds and their threats, Negroes are leaving the section by thousands. They cannot go one inch further and expect the people to stay. Therefore, it is altogether likely, that common sense will prevail, and the race will be treated more like human being and Americans than ever before. In the north, it will be necessary to give greater attention to the problems of economic assimilation, and the new problems growing out of the foreign immigration. There must be thrift and big business ventures. The time is far spent, and a larger attachment to the commercial field must prevail. If, by hook or crook, the Democrats should continue in power, the whole program is changed. TUCSON By Mrs. Wm. Blakeley The Sunday services were well attended at Prince's Chapel, A. M. E. church, Rev. H. A. Wells preached two excellent sermons. The collection was up to the usual standard—thirty dollars. The Young Men's Sunday Social club which meets every Sunday afternoon at the A. M. E. church, held an interesting meeting on last Sunday. An excellent program has been arranged for Sunday, Oct. 31st. Mr. C. J. Richardson, formerly of California, recently opened up an employment and rental agency at 175 South Meyers street. He furnished all kinds of help. Give him a trial. Mrs. Marjorie Jones underwent a slight operation as a result of a nail which stuck in her foot. We hope for her a speedy recovery. Mrs. Margaret Morrison, who has been ill, is convalescent. The cake contest given by Club No. 4 at the residence of Mrs. H. J. Cakes was quite a success. Mrs. Fisher was the winner of the cake. Quite a number of entertainments are being given by the different clubs of the Adam, Eve and Samson's Rally' which will be held Sunday, Oct. 31st. More will be said of the rally in the next copy of the Tribune. Miss Carrie Lee left Tucson Sunday afternoon on a three weeks' visit in California. Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Steele of Casper, Wyo., are recent arrivals in the city. They expect to reside here for a while. Mrs. M. J. Putney and mother, Mrs. Williams, left this morning for their home in Houston, Texas. A drunken ass is no worse than a sober fool. ROMONOFF GREATEST EUROPEAN WRESTLER SINCE HACK'S TIME Something new in the wrestling art will be in store for Salt River valley fans when Alec Romanoff and Nick Daviscourt meet in a finish match at Tally's arena, Friday night. It is in the style used by the big Russian artist, who is recognized as one of the cleverest big fellows the game has ever developed. First of all, Romanoff wrestles with all fours, employing his feet with equal precision with his hands to toss his opponent about the ring. This style has won for him the name of the "grapevine wrestler," and he is said to be a wizard at this peculiar style. Romanoff comes to Phoenix with a wonderful record, having scored decisive victories over such wonderful men as Charley Cutler of Chicago, former world's heavyweight title holder; Jack Sanson, Jack Sorenson and many others, of equal prominence in the wrestling world. Only recently he went three hours to a draw with Ad Santel, considered the best man of his poundage in the world. Sandel weighs about 190 pounds—too heavy for the light-heavyweight class and too light for the big heavies. But at his weight he is master of them all. Based on past performances, Romanoff is a real match for any man, and if Davis court is counting on any "soft pickings" here, he is in for a big surprise. On paper, it looks like one of the best matches, from a standpoint of evenness, ever arranged by Promoter M. M. Tally. The two big fellows are the same size, in poundage, and have enjoyed about the same experience on the mat. Davis court holds the heavyweight championship title of the Pacific coast and should he lose to Romanoff, will surrender that honor. RAY By Chester Maryland. Walter McDonald of Roswell, N. M., who for the past few weeks has been visiting his cousin, J. J. McDonald, left last week for home. Mrs. Mose Davis was hostess last week at a delightful luncheon given in honor of her sister, Mrs. Nancy McMillen. After enjoying the dainty refreshments, the evening was spent at cards. Music was played on the Victrola. Among those present were, Mr. and Mrs. W. Barnell, Mr. and Mrs. Abe Bueford, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Smith, Misses Elizabeth and Emily Crump, Mr. Curtis Watson, Mr. and Mrs. Chester Maryland. All had a delightful time and on departing proclaimed Mrs. Davis a charming hostess. Mr. Joe Lewis made a flying trip to Phoenix last week on business. He said that he visited Gaillard's cafe at 221 East Madison street and was delighted with the excellent service rendered. He further stated that no visit to Phoenix is complete until you have dined at Gaillard's cafe. The public school of Sunny Side opened last week for the reception of colored students. Five have enrolled and two of them are taking the high school subjects. The cause of the delay in opening the school was a shortage of teachers. They succeeded in getting one last week, and she has entered upon her duties. We were trusting that some one of our colored lady teachers would accept the position, but we failed to get one. Wm. P. Crump and daughters, J. J. McDonald and family, went on a hunting trip last week. They camped out all night and returned the next day with 48 white wings and quail and eight rabbits. Of course they missed the big buck they wanted, but will try to bring in a deer of some kind next time. Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 30.— The ninth annual conventio not the Perfection Hair Growers will be held in this city on the 28th and 29th of October. Delegates will be in attendance from all sections of the country. When a fellow is caught in a rain without his umbrella, he doesn't give much thought to the silver lining of the clouds. GEORGIA DEMOCRATS GROWING FRANTIC ABOUT NEGRO VOTE Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 30.—The Georgia headquarters of the eNational Democratic committee has just issued a statement which voices a wild fear that "white supremacy" is being seriously threatened by the activities of the Republican party to hold intact the Negro vote. The statement in part is as follows: "Migration into the north has made the Negro vote a potent factor. In some districts it is the balance of power. Senator Harding and his party in bidding for this vote, have made dangerous pledges of recognition. As result of these pledges, Henry Lincoln Johnson (colored) was placed as the Georgia member of the National Republican committee. Republican success in November means Georgia postoffices and other Federal offices filled by Negroes. This menace coupled with the magnificent record of Democracy appeals to Georgia democrats for support." PRESCOTT By Mrs. Dora Rose. On last Sunday Rev. Yearwood, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Bell—were dinner guests of Mr. and rMs. Jacob Tull at their home in Virginia street. Mr. Chas. Griffith will return to St. Louis in the near future. Rev. J.

You are assured of comfort at this church. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year LOCAL MASONS WIN RIGHT TO ESTABLISH A GRAND LODGE The certificate of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of (Colored) Free and Accepted Masons of Arizona was revoked by the corporation commission Monday. The annulment of the charter takes away all authority of the lodge which has been in conflict with the local lodge which instituted proceedings on the ground that the certificate of incorporation was obtained in a fraudulent and unlawful manner, the articles not having been acknowledged as they were purported to have been. In its order, signed Monday, the commission throws additional light on the proceedings: "We might further mention that the evidence discloses that of the alleged signers of the articles none of them had any authority under the rules and regulations of their order to organize a Grand Lodge, especially after this fashion. Of the lodges alleged to have been represented, two of them appear to have been the personal property of the promoter of this organization, to wit, Henry Clark, which he changed from place to place at will and according to his own migrations. He apparently engineered this scheme of organizing a Grand Lodge for financial returns to himself. Before filing his articles he organized lodges, made and unmade alleged Masons at will, collecting all the while such revenue as might be procurable from the recipients of his favors. With the certificate of incorporation so mistakenly granted by the commission, he has been enabled to doubly fortify himself to prey upon the misinformed of his own race. We cannot lend our offices or the law of the state to such a pernicious scheme." Race Man Placed On Farmer-Labor Ticket; To Run For Congressman (By The Associated Negro Press). St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 0—Robert N. Owens, a colored lawyer of this city has announced his candidacy for representative in congress from the 12th district on the Farmer-Labor ticket.

ELECTION DAY ce great day of His wrath has come and who shall be able to stand?” ‘Tuesday, November 2nd, the people of this country will decide by ballot whether they want a continuation of the present Democratic administra- tion at Washington, or a change to a Republican administration with safe and sane leaders who are capable of stabilizing this government by restor- ing law and order, peace and harmony, and directing the American people back to the path of rigtiteousness from which they have been led. ‘This is a government of the people, for the people and by the people; but under the present administration one would be led to believe that it is a government of Democrats, for the League of Nations and by Woodrow Wilson. All just governments derive their power from the consent of the governed, and no man, who looks down upon his fellowman is fit to gov- em, Woodrow Wilson, present incumbent of the White House, has proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, his unfitness and lack of executive ability to properly administer the duties of the high office to which he has been elevated. His intended successor and protege, Governor Cox, has said that if elected, he would carry out Wilson's policies, so, in electing Cox you would be re-electing Wilson. We believe the great majority of the American people want a decided change in the administration of the affairs of government at Washington. ‘There is only one way to bring about this change and that is to elect Senator Warren G. Harding president. Senator Harding is the Republican candidate for president, and as such is pledged to carry out the principles enunciated in the Republican platform, which are in contradistinetion to the Democratic principles as exemplified in the administration of President Wilson. y Your duty in the present campaign fs clear, You have but one course to pursue. You want a return of those good old days of yore, with the full dinner pail and a reign of peace. Then, do your full duty as an. American citizen by casting your vote for Warren G. Harding for presi- dent and Calvin Coolidge for vice-president. In local polities the issues are clear and you will make no mistake by voting the Republican ticket straight. We know what to expect from a Republican administration, but when Democrats come into power, we are at sea. All candidates on the Republican ticket are good, at least they are supposed to be, or they never could have lined up with this Grand Old Party. Some of the candidates we can give more enthusiastic support than others, for the reason that their records shine out like a beacon light and their fitness and qualification to {ili the positions to which they aspire, is) unquestioned. Among these are: Ralph H. Cameron, candidate for United States Senator; Linwood S. Prait, candidate for county superintendent of schools and C. M. Stoddard, candidate for state senator. Ralph Cameron is known as a man who does things. While in congress as a delegate from Arizona, he accomplished more for this state in one term than any other man has accomplished before or since; notwithstanding the twenty odd years in whieh the other man has had to do these things. Ralph Cameron fulfills his promises. if elected to the United States Senate, he has promised to secure the San Carlos project, whieh will mean reclama- tion of hundreds of acres of land in this state, thus causing the desert to ‘bloom like a rose atid provide ampie lands for the thrifty farmers who come to this section. And too, Ralph Cameron is known to be a staunch fflend of that great mass of common people—that 80 per cent of the human family who toil. All Arizona will benefit by placing Ralph Cameron in the United States Senate. We are for Cameron and a greater Arizona. Linwood 8. Pratt,.the Republican candidate for county superintendent of schools, is well known to the voters of Maricopa county as an educator of the highest type. He believes in good schools and efficient oe We believe he is admirably fitted for the office of county superintendent | ‘of schools, and that the schools of Maricopa county will benefit: materially by his management, You cannot go wrong by casting your vote ee Linwood 8.

WILLIAMS Member Republican County Commit tee, El Paso, Texas tee, El Paso, Texas The Negro in this country is a Republican for reasons conclusive to any thinking mind. Among the long train of reasons I offer the following observations as to why I am a Republican. First: I am gripped with the fact that the Republican party was born as a protest against human injustice. Its first cry was for fair play in the great race of life and the ball begun by this party of Lincoln has increased in magnitude and momentum until today it is destined to gird to powder all those human idols constructed by the Democratic party to perpetuate a system of human slavery in our country. I would be basely false to Second: The Republican party believes that the government, local, state and national, should be a dynamic force to guarantee to all classes security of life and property. It believes in the rule of law; that law has no color; that the constitution is the Magna Charta of our freedom; that the life and property of a black man are as dear and sacred to him as the life and property of a white man are to him. Third: 'The Republican party believes that all men should have economic justice, should have equal opportunity to get and hold work, with equal pay for equal work, with fair working and living conditions. This view differs widely from that of the Democratic party which believes that economic justice is the right only of white citizens and that the Negro is an industrial slave, destined because of his color to work for lower wages than the average standard for white men and to live amid conditions repugnant to the finer tastes and customs of civilization. The Republican party is our only hope for industrial Freedom. Fourth: The party of Lincoln has always championed the sanctity of the home, both white and black. It Democratic Nominee for Corporation Commissioner Democratic Nominee for Corporation Commissioner PETER H. LOREN VAUGHN Educator, Editor, Lawyer and Legislator Loren Vaughn has been a high school principal, editor and owner of an Arizona democratic newspaper for six years, and has now been practicing law in Phoenix for eight years, four years of which time has has represented Maricopa county in the legislature. He has gone into every county and principal town in the state in the present campaign, making speeches in behalf of the ticket and party. The duties of the corporation commission are both legislative and judicial, for which he is admirably equipped. In the legislature he was a friend to the colored people in behalf of better school facilities for colored children. THE NATIONAL BANK OF ARIZONA THE OLDEST NATIONAL BANK IN ARIZONA Capital $200,000 Surplus $200,000 SOLICITS When I tell you that "Education is of vital importance, and should be provided for ALL CHILDREN ALIKE," I mean just what I say and I shall fight for proper legislation to put it into effect, when I am elected as a member of the State Senate. believes that the home of the humblest citizen is entitled to the protection of the law and should be made secure from all invasion. Indiscriminate attacks upon our homes as permitted by Southern States are both unjust and savage. Fifth: We have only to glance at Republican states to be impressed by the fact that the Republican party believes in equal traveling accommodations for equal charges. The disgraceful Jim Crow legislation in our country which attests to our being stock was born in the Democratic party and has never had the backing of the Republican party and if this damnable system is ever driven from among us, the Republican party will have to do the job. Sixth: The great question of taxation has always been near to the heart of free people. A government that taxes its citizens and collects the same should see to it that all classes of citizens share in the benefits accruing from said taxation. The Republican party believes in the operation of this principle as is easily manifest in Republican cities where all share equally in the public schools, parks, playgrounds and libraries. I believe in this party because it teaches that "taxation without representation" is a system of tyranny and the administrators of such a government are tyrants. No Negro who wants an equitable share of the benefits derived from public taxation could be anything but a Republican. Seventh: I am a Republican because that party believes the right and qualifications for franchise should be worked out irrespective of race, creed or color. In this remark I am excluding from the Republican party all those Southern Democrats who have stolen into our folds and infected our sheep with that corrupting PETER H. O. E.

BANK OF ARIZONA NATIONAL BANK IN ARIZONA Surplus $200,000 CITIES BUSINESS ARIZONA Ralph Cameron's Column Forward Arizona By RALPH H. CAMERON RALPH H. CAMERON FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE PAGE FOUR [Name] To the People of Phoenix: Following my service as the last delegate from the territory of Arizona at Washington, during which I was successful in winning dorf Arizona the long sought boon of statehood, and my failure of election to the United States Senate at the first statehood election, by less than a thousand votes, I had thought to retire to private pursuits and not again seek to represent you at the national capital. I had some large enterprises here in Arizona which I wanted to get under way and really welcomed the opportunity given to devote my time to them. False Hopes Built Up And so, for nearly nine years now, I have been a private citizen, watching and waiting with you for the big things we had hoped to get at Washington after entering into the statehood of states, with two full-fledged United States senators: where we had a delegate with no vote heir. I had pictured, in my mind's eye, great reclamation projects on the Gila and Little Colorado, great power projects on the Colorado, emptying cheap power to our wonderful valleys such as the Gila, the Santa Cruz, the Casa Grande and the Sulphur Spiring and many others. I had pictured more mental public buildings at Tucson and Globe, for which I had secured building sites, while delegate in Congress, as well as at Nugates, our largest port of entry, and in other cities of our rapidly growing state. I had looked forward to the resolution of a substantial part of those vast areas tied up in Indian reserves to the public domain, with the development of our state and the civilization of our Indian tribes. I had looked forward to a great many other ways in which a potential government could assist in the development of her most promising baby state, the third largest in the Union, the greatest mining state producing thirty per cent of the copper of the world, besides her precious metals, containing within her confines the most wonderful valleys, with the greatest agricultural possibilities in the land, the largest half of standing timber in America, and, in the Grand Couron, the greatest potentialities for the development of power on the globe without in any way impairing the scenic features of that greatest of the world's wonders. Benefit Still Far Away All of these benefits you and I have looked forward to for nine years now, but we have waked for them in vain and with our present representation at Washington, they seem no nearer than when we were admitted to the Union; in fact they appear farther away, for we had high hopes then. Our senators themselves extend no hope. They tell us that a man's service at Washington is not to be measured by what he gets for Arizona, but by his service to the nation. If they mean by this slicking by the president at all cost, and that is to be the measure of success, then they are both heroes and should be sent back. How Statehood Was Won I conceived, my friends, that when I served you in Washington I regarded the duty I owed to get something for my state as the highest and my lowest to the administration as secondary. I admit that so many were the things to be rotten for Arizona and so absorbed did I become in the statehood fight that I had very little time to give to national questions and those I left for wiser wiser and more experienced than mine. I really felt that I had been sent there as a business agent for this great corporation of cures and instead of endowing to shine through witnessing courses on national subjects, I went to work on the floor, endeavoring to win friends for Arizona, to make an investment of influence, to educate my colleagues on the possibilities of our commonwealth and on what statehood would mean to it. Of my success you well know. In a little over a year I had put the statehood bill through both the house and senate it was signed by the president, and after years of futile effort by my opponent in 1908 and my opponent now, I had won it in a single term. I do not claim that I won the victory by statemanship. That may be a force of the present senators, but it is not my line. I simply changed the system of my opponent. That fight was won by tireless energy and hard work and I do claim to possess the one and a capacity for the other. Me Better Than a Territory As I have said, we have for nine long years waited in vain for our senators to really land something worth while at Washington for Arl- zone. As far as I have been able to see, we have been no better off there with two senators and a representative than we were with a delegate without a vote. It is only because I honestly believe that I can duplicate my performance of 1968 In getting you statehood that I have laid aside my private pursuits and again sought your suffrage. If I did not honestly believe I could make good, that I could get the things I have promised to work for there. I would not now be asking you to send me to the United States senate. No Time to Lay Down No Time to Lay Down I do not pretend, my friends, that I am any super-man or that it takes such an one to get results at Washington. You could do it yourself if you would go after it. Henry Ashurst says that anybody can get appropriations at Washington. I agree with him, but neither he nor my opponent have done so, and I will tell you why. They do not go after them. They lay down and admit that they have lost before they start. At Casa Grande the other night, Mark Smith told an audience that it was absurd for me to claim that I could get federal aid for that great project. He said that he had fought for it for 32 years, that it would probably take 10 more to get it and then 12 years to build it. What change has a man in that frame of mind to win the San Carlos or anything else for Arizona? If you will bear with me a minute, I am going to cite you an instance of how our senators work in Washington. While the war was at its height, I had occasion to take up a matter of business with the war department. I was in New York at the time and was told that I would have to see General Bell at Governor's Island. I saw General Bell, and he referred me to Secretary of War Baker. I went to the telephone and called up Henry Ashnest, at Washington. I told him I wanted him to make an appointment for me the next day with Secretary Baker. He expressed considerable surprise that I should think of such a thing, saying that he and Mark Smith had been trying to see Secretary Baker for a week, but had been unable to do so. He tried to discourage me from coming to Washington, saying that such a mission would certainly be futile. Threw Cold Water on Enterprise "I am going to be in Washington tomorrow and I am going to see Secretary Baker," I replied. "Well, come on, then," said the senator, "but it will be time and money lost." I took the night train and reached Washington early in the morning. I had breakfast, and, calling, a taxi went to Senator Asburst's apartments. He and his amiable wife were just unfolding breakfast. I had known them both for years and they received me most cordially. I repeated the purpose of my visit. "Ralph," said Henry, "you will never make it. Mark and I have been trying in vain for a week to see Secretary Baker." "If you will take me down to the war department and get me by those three lines of guards, that is all I ask." I replied. The war was on and they had the war department building heavily guarded. "I will agree to that." Henry replied, "but will not promise to get you farther," and so we started out. Showed Ashurst How to Do It We passed the guards, by the senator presenting his card, and succeeded in reaching the ante-room of Secretary of War Baker's office. There were 40 to 50 people waiting, most of them army officers. "Don't you see," said Ashurst, "you will never get to see the secretary?" "Just wait and see," I replied, and we sat down right near the door to the secretary's private office. In a little while the door opened and a man came out. Before he was hardly out of the door I grabbed his hand. "I am Reinh Cameron of Arizona and I am here with Senator for Arizona on the 10 o'clock train and I must see Secretary Baker just for a moment." As I surmised, he was the private secretary of Secretary Baker. "I will see what I can do for you," he replied and he went back into the private office. In a few minutes he came out and said, "Secretary Baker will see you. Mr. Cameron." So I went in and I took Senator Ashurst with me. Only a Little Nerve Needed "How do you do it. Ralph?" queried Henry as we went through the door. And so we saw Secretary Baker. I found him busy signing army commissions, something I thought he might have delegated to some clerk in the midst of a great war. And THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING he not only gave me a minute, but he kept us ten minutes telling us how hard he was working. And so you will see, my friends, that after all it does not take statesmanship to get something for Arizona at Washington, but nerve, determination and hard work, and I will promise you to employ them all, if you will put me back on the job there. Those of you who have followed my speeches during this campaign know that I have refrained from mudsling, but have endeavored to present my case to the people of Arizona in a fair, square and business-like way. Replies to Carpet Bagger's Assaults My opponent, Sehator Smith, his colleague, Senator Ashurst, and Mr. Barnum, the Democratic national committeeman, have been going about the state making scandalous statements about me. Barnum has said that I am not a resident of Arizona because I have spent part of my time in the last six years in the east, trying to raise money to develop some of our Arizona resources. My friends, I have been 37 years a resident of this state. I was blazing the trails of the Grand Canyon, chasing bandits as the first sheriff of Coconino county, and working for the development of the resources of the north long before this carpet-bagger. Barnum, ever heard of Arizona. I love Arizona. I have always lived here since I came to the state as a boy and I expect to die here. I expected the opposition to try to rob me of the credit for getting statehood for you, which I did during my first term as I promised, but I never thought they would try to give the credit to Mark Smith, my opponent. Sand Back an Optimist Great things can be done in Washington for the next four years. It is conceded that the next president will be a Republican and Senator Harding is as good as elected today, and nothing can stop the landslide scheduled for November 2nd. What, then, is the reasonable and business-like thing for the people of Arizona to do this year when it comes to selecting a senator? Is it good policy or good business to send back there a man who admits at the outset that your case is hopeless? Or is it best to send a man who believes in your cause and his cause and in his ability to deliver? I am not taking things for granted. I have been to Marion. I have discussed our wonderful reclamation possibilities with Senator Harding, and he has not only tendered me his whole-hearted support, but promised me that every pound of influence the administration wields will be placed behind my program if I am elected. 1908 All Over Again What better assurance or promise could I bring you? You tried me out in 1908 and I was not found wanting. I demonstrated conclusively my ability to deliver. They told you then that my promises were all "hot air" and that I could never make good, but I fooled them. They are saying the same thing to you now and are becoming very abusive because I am promising to get you some results in Washington. History is repeating itself. We are having 1908 all over again. You had been seeking statehood for years without avail and you decided to change. You elected to take a chance on me and I did not fail you, for you got what you were after. We are up against the same proposition this year. Your great reclamation projects are at a standstill. Not a shovelful of earth has been turned on any new project in Arizona since statehood. My opponent offers you no hope. I come before you with the same confidence I displayed in 1908. I ask you to again take a chance on me and I say now as I said then, that if I fail to deliver, I will never again ask your suffrage. I honestly believe in my own ability to make good. I have the assurance of the support of the man who will be the next president of the United States. If, considering all of these facts, the hopelessness of my opponent, my confidence in my own success, my undisputed energy, determination and capacity for hard work, and the aid which Senator Harding has promised me, you think it is good business and good politics to send me to Washington. I ask your enthusiastic and militant support. Deeds, D.

The following is quoted from the Phoenix Tribune: "That all Negroes were made to tear off the left-hand corner of their questionnaire; that Negroes were drafted ostensibly as soldiers, but sent to camp and given a pick and shovel; that Negroes were taken from the South in large numbers, while the whites of the South were either exempt or placed in deferred classifications; that a whole Draft Board in Georgia was dismissed because it took too many Negroes and exempted too many whites; that the stevedore regiments were made up of Negroes, while the whites were given guns and commissions; that Negroes in France were placed under Vote NO INITIATIVE MEASURE We are op it enables individual communities bill becomes a law it will mean creased burdens for the entire If this bill becomes a law it practically five times the cost of the same assessed valuation.

No one who believes in the Grandfather clause has any moral right to be identified with the Republican party. Eighth: We all believe that Negroes who pass the required Civil Service examination should be employed by the government on equal terms as white men are employed. The Republican party not only believes in this public principle but practices the policy. We all know how unfair and un-American the Democrats are in reference to this public matter. So soon as they take charge of the National Government, black-hand methods are begun to drive out of employment every Negro who holds a government position. If I were to mention some' of the cheap, unmanly methods resorted to right here in El Paso, I doubt seriously whether I could convince you that white men would stoop to do such unfair things. To give you a faint idea of the Democratic practices along this line, I submit the following: Those positions in the United States Government were given to the Colored people by the Republican party and taken from them by the Democratic party: Minister to Haiti—$10,000.00; Assistant Attorney General—$5,000.00; Collector Customs, D.

Robinson, Peoria A. A. Carrick, Glendale G. P. Van Marel, Glendale Lafe Myers, Glendale F. H. Ensign, Phoenix J. P. Lavin, Phoenix "I came to Arizona in 1874 when I was eight years old. My father was in the army at the time and we lived at Fort McDowell until 1880 when we moved to Tempe. Then we moved to Phoenix and I was in school there for a couple of years doing janitor work at the old Central school building to get what little book education I got. Then I went to work in a horse shoeing shop for James McCarthy and worked with him until the fall of 1884, when I got a job mucking in a mine and I have followed mining ever since. "In 1904 they elected me constable of Bisbee precinct No. 2. Then two years later I was elected sheriff of Cochise county and re-elected two years after that. Completing my service in February, 1912, I moved to Phoenix, where ever since I have been looking after the development of gold property in which I am interested." "During the years that I was working in the mines I worked in the old Tiptop mine in 1886 and all through the Bradshaw mountains in all of the properties which were operating at that time, following which I worked in all of the big mines of the state, including the Silver King, Buffalo, United Verde, Boggs, Henrietta, McCabe, and the old Congress mine until 1898; then I went to Bisbee, where I engaged in mining until 1904 except for eight months, when I was foreman of the Roy mine, 75 miles south of Douglas, in old Mexico. "I guess that is about all there is to say except that I am the head of a family with a wife and five boys." From which it will be seen that Mr. White is pretty much of a practical mining man and peculiarly fitted for the office of mine inspector. Southern officers and humiliated; that commissions were given, to Negroes in training camps but taken from them before they were sent overseas; that even in France Jim Crow signs were placed on restaurants and moving picture places by orders of white officers; that white soldiers were allowed to discuss the propriety of saluting a Negro officer in uniform; that Colonel Young was retired rather than promoted to his well earned position in the American army." No self-respecting Negro could support the Democratic party in the face of such facts. Ninth: All citizens of our country have been taught to look upon the Federal Constitution as a Magna Charta of America. This document if it means anything, means the same for colored citizens as it does for white citizens. It is our palladium Men who swear to defend it, swear to defend the whole Constitution, which is without race, creed or color. The Democrats believe the Constitution is to be respected only when it is being applied to white Americans; the Republicans believe that the Constitution means the same thing for the Colored American as for the white American. Tenth: I come now to my last observation. All of us feel that when our Constitution has been amended THE SO-CALLED COUNTY OF ure and you should vote again JAUSE selves from a county by the and officers, increased taxation rate. Ericopa County might be divi- tory government, for the sam TO VOTE "NO" ON BILL or Mine Inspect Outside of Governor Campbell, who is known far and wide, it is doubtful if any Arizona candidate for state office enjoys a wider acquaintanceship that big Jack White, republican nominee for State Mine Inspector. Because of his life-long activity in the mining and general development of Arizona, Jack has come to be regarded as one of the prominent figures of the southwest, and this is attested in an editorial comment which appeared the other day in the El Paso Herald. It reads: "Arizona's republicans are fortunate in the selection of Jack White, former sheriff of Cochise county, as their candidate for mine inspector. Mr. White is a miner of long experience. Also he is known and liked all over the state, as democratic papers admit. As head of the state employment bureau he satisfied emplover and emplove alike. If the voters of Arizona will elect him, Mr. White undoubtedly will make good. Jack White's biography reads like a romance. He gives it as follows: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1920 COUNTY DIVISION ACT vote against it— by their own votes alone. If this taxation and schools. In fact, in- be divided into five portions with the same number of people and for BILL 309 Inspector the amendment is as much a part of the Constitution as the original sections. The 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments are as much a part of the Constitution as any other part and any disregard for them is un-American and should be considered anarchic. The Democrats have never been willing to recognize these Amendments and do all in their power to annul them. It is only through the Republican party that any life at all is kept in these Amendments. Perpetuate the hungry Democrats in control of our National Government and the life of these Amendments is threatened. Winston-Salem, N. C., Oct. 30. — Three Negro convicts escaped from the prison camp at Rocky Mount last Tuesday. James Newton of Winston-Salem, serving a sentence for murder; Charles Brown of Ashville, serving a 30-year sentence; and James Clark of Beaufort, who is serving a 15-year sentence. None of the men have been captured. St. Matthews, S. C., Oct. 30.—Negro farmers of Calhoun county have subscribed 125 bales of cotton and $100 in cash to the export corporation of the South Carolina Cotton association. who preaches the least and lives the cleanest. ```markdown ``` John D.
