VOL. VII.—NO. 6 Phoen THOMAS MADDOCK I IN EVERY WAY OF AR Despite plagiaristic claims to the contrary he was the first to suggest a practical solution of the Colorado river problem. He courageously ad vanced his idea when it was unpopular but most of the candidates and voters are now accepting it. It is logical to presume that Hunt will win in a three way race although he is weaker than ever before. SHERIFF JERRY SULL RE-NOMINATION A HIS PAST RECOR Sheriff Jerry Sullivan, Democratic candidate for nomination and election as sheriff of Maricopa County, is the first and only candidate for this office to come out openly and state his opposition to the Ku Klux Klan. The mere statement that one is not a member of the Klan does not in itself carry with it a denunciation of this organization, says Sheriff Sullivan. "I have always been an opponent of the Klan," said Jerry, "and am just as bitterly opposed to it now as JERRY SULLIVAN, Sheriff Who is asking you for your support for his re-nomination and election or his past record as your sheriff. Absolutely opposed to the Klan. I ever was. Nothing can swerve me from this position, and there will be no straddling the issue on my part. "I stand for law enforcement by the regular constituted officers of the law, and believe that no man or set of men, has the right to attempt to regulate our moral delinquencies other than those duly elected or appointed and clothed with proper authority. "I am making the race for Sheriff on a platform of efficiency, economy and service, and if this means anything to the taxpayers and citizens of Maricopa county, I expect to eb re-nominated and elected sheriff." Jerry Sullivan's record as sheriff of Maricopa county for the past two years is an open book and is here with submitted for your inspection and careful study: Efficiency, Economy, Service Re-nominate and elect Jerry Sullivan for Sheriff. He has made good by using economical and business Phoenix Tribune Key 10 Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 16,000 Homes Maddock is the logical candidate for governor. He is an engineer. The two big problems confronting the people of Arizona are highway transportation and the development of the Colorado river. These are both engineering questions. Maddock laid out and constructed most of the state highway system. He had arranged for financing the remainder. Maddock is the logical man to beat Hunt. While others talk "business administration," "recognition only of merit," etc, Maddock carried out these ideas for four years in the highway department. He has more democratic and nonpartisan admirers than any republican and many of these voters support is necessary for election. Hunt has been negative on the Colorado river question with the exception of advancing McGregor's idea of a gigantic bond issue. Maddock from the first has offered a positive solution. Hunt permitted the wasting of $70,000 in the Maddock investigation in the hopes of discrediting the entire Campbell administration. Hunt failed. Failure in politics means defeat. Success in political affairs brings victory. Hunt can be defeated. Maddock is the logical man to do it. LIVAN SEEKING AND ELECTION ON D; OPPOSES KU KLUX methods in office.

WALKER CO INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., September 4 The very largest real estate transaction of all time involving our group in this city was recently completed when the Madam C. J. Walker Mfg. Company purchased the northwest corner of North street, West street and Indiana avenue for the sum of $58,000. This is a large property located in the heart of the business district, close to the world-famed Soldiers and Sailors Monument and has a most commanding view of the three above named streets which intersect to form six points. On this valuable corner, passed daily by thousands of people, the Madam C. J. Walker Company will erect in the near future a new administration and factory building. Plans are now being prepared, and from some of the proposed features, it is to be the most beautiful and by far the best appointed building of its kind in the world today. Neither brains nor money, we learn, will be spared to make it equal to the growing needs of the Walker Company and another fitting monument to the memory of the late Madam C. J. Walker. Fish makes good brain food. Some people ought to eat a medium sized whale every morning for breakfast. PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1924 LOREN VAUGHN ASKS FOR PROMOTION TO THE SUPREME BENCH Perhaps there is no man in Arizona who is more generally known than is Mr. Loren Vaughn, State Corporation Commissioner and candidate for the Democratic nomination for Judge of the Supreme Court. Since the beginning of his political career many years ago, no member of his party in the entire state has been such a consistent winner. Even his friends have been surprised at the over- whelming majorities he has always piled up and naturally those friends are sure of his being successful in his ambition to reach the highest judicial office in our state. His success in the past is also making his opponents wonder if he isn't carrying a rabbit's foot concealed somewhere about his person, and in glancing back over his record they find nothing to relieve their anxiety. Mr. Vaughn has made an excellent record in the office which he now holds and is, professional colleagues say, eminently qualified to fill the position of Judge of the Supreme Court with credit to himself and dignity to the position. Mr. Vaughn has a pleasing personality and in a strenuous campaign which he is now making throughout Arizona is constantly adding to his large number of friends. HON. SAMUEL WHITE WELL QUALIFIED FOR JUDGE SUPERIOR COURT Probably no attorney in Arizona has better qualifications for a judicial position than has Judge Samuel White, who is seeking the democratic nomination for Judge of the Superior Court of Maricopa County. This is the opinion that is being expressed by his colleagues in the profession, by business men of the county and others who have become acquainted with him during his residence in Phoenix. A deep student, experienced in the law, of fine judicial bearing and pleasing personality, there can be no question, say those who know Judge White best, of his fitness to administer justice and uphold the traditions of our Courts. Mr. White was born in Georgia and is a typical southern gentleman with all the graces of personality that the term implies. He received his education at Mercer University, a Baptist institution, and at the University of Tennessee. He left his home in Georgia in 1885, having just been admitted to the bar of that state, and removed to Oregon, where he practiced law for more than thirty years, or until 1918, when he entered the World War, serving as Major in the Judge Advocate-Generals department. Following his discharge from the army, Judge White came to Phoenix where he established law offices and has since been actively engaged in the practice of his profession. During that time he has made for himself an enviable record, and is held in the highest esteem by fellow members of the bar. In Oregon Judge White served as district attorney of the Eighth Judicial District for six years and for years was on the circuit bench. He was Chairman of the Democratic State Committee from 1901 to 1914, and again from 1915 to 1918. He was also President of the Oregon State Bar Association from 1916 to 1917. He has been a lifelong demo- AFRICAN METHODIST BISHOP SAYS SUPPORT PRESIDENT COOLIDGE Bishop W. D. Johnson of the A.M. E. Church, presiding over the state of Texas, visited Philadelphia helping to compile the discipline. Upon being asked to state his opinion on the political question, Bishop Johnson spoke out strongly for President Coolidge. Said he: "Our people should be interested in that candidate who, if elected, will defend their constitutional rights against all attempts at abridgement or other hostile influence. Among the various candidates for the presidential office I think none more deserving than our present chief executive, and it is for him that I urge every voter to cast his ballot. There are three reasons that prompt me to make this statement. First, Mr. Coolidge's fairness and honesty. I think that among the great array of rulers and leaders today intrusted with power, there is none who can surpass Mr. Coolidge in honesty of purpose, in courage, or in high devotion to the welfare of his country. Second, in his advocacy of the Dyer antilynching bill, and also the attitude of the Republican nominee because no no party has done as much for our people as the party in power. From the time the colored man emerged from slavery up to the present moment—every worth while privilege granted him, can be traced directly or indirectly to the instrumentality of the Republican party. Among all the organizations that constantly laud their efforts in behalf of our country's welfare, the only one that ever made "Free Men" one of its motives is the Republican party. Whatever amendments and Federal laws we have today protecting the rights of the colored man, we are indebted to the Republican party for these grants; and I firmly believe that any colored man or woman failing to support Mr. Coolidge in the coming election, would not only be ungrateful for blessings received, but expose himself to new and additional hardships." THALHEIMER IS FIRST NATIVE OF COUNTY TO SEEK ATTORNEY POST For the first time in the history of the county, a man born and reared within its borders is a candidate for the office of county attorney. Walter J. Thalheimer, the son of Joseph Thalheimer and Anna B. Thalheimer, was born in Maricopa county, Arizona, educated in the public schools of the county, and graduated from Stanford university with the class of 1915 and the Law School or the University of Michigan, at Ann Arbor, in 1917. During the World War he served as a "buck private" with the United States Marine Corps. On his discharge he returned to his native state and opened his present law offices at Phoenix, Arizona. Among the leaders in the spectacular race for the Democratic nomination for county attorney none stands a better chance of success than Walter J. Thalheimer, in the opinion of those who are in close touch with the county political situation. Mr. Thalheimer has a strong following who assert that his experience and demonstrated ability in the practice of law thoroughly equip him to act in the capacity of public prosecutor and adviser to the people, and predict his success in both the primary and general election. Law enforcement and a square deal for all will be policies of the county attorney's office placed in immediate effect if Thalheimer is elected, he says. crat and is a man of ripened experience and mature judgment, and party leaders throughout the County feel that if he is elected his official career will be one which will reflect great credit upon Arizona democracy. Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, and then bury the bag. Phunny Phoebe says it's a long contract that can't be broken. HENRICH HAS HELPED TO INCREASE THE TAX WEALTH OF COUNTY A glance at the tax rolls of Maricopa county for 1924 reveal the fact that the taxable wealth has been increased by $2,000,000 during the last year. This is attributed largely to the efforts of F. S. Henrich, county assessor. Coupled with this increase in assessed valuation is a reduction in the F. S. Henrich, Democratic candidate for County Assessor. county tax rate of 19½ cents. This reduction, it is pointed out, is due not only to the increased valuation of property, but the strict economy practiced by the county assessor and other county officials. During the past year the cash transactions in the assessor's office increased 40 per cent over the previous year. Notwithstanding there was no increase in the payroll. These facts are being used to good advantage in support of the candidacy of Mr. Henrich, who for the first time is seeking election to the office he now holds, being a candidate in the Democratic primary. On January 1, 1923, Mr. Henrich was drafted into service by the late G. W. Cummins, as chief deputy assessor. At that time he was in the employ of the Arizona Title Guarantee and Trust company. Upon the death of Mr. Cummins it was by the unanimous vote of the board of supervisors that Henrich was made county assessor, a post which he has filled with notable efficiency ever since. J. J. COX CANDIDATE FOR STATE SENATOR MARICOPA COUNTY Probably a majority of the voters of Maricopa county already know Mr. Cox, and anything we might say in his behalf would be only a reiteration of what is already well know by the public. While there are many of us who do not agree with him politically, there few, if any, citizens of the county who do not know him to be a fair, upright, honest, able citizen, and even those who are opposed to him for political reasons are unanimous in saying that the democratic party will show the very best judgment in nominating Mr. Cox for the office of State Senator. TO THE PUBLIC During the past few days some people have circulated a report that I am a member of the Camelback Klan, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. This report is being put out by my political enemies with hopes that it will injure me in my race for sheriff. I wish to state that I am not now and never have been a member of the klan. If I am elected, I give my promise that I will be sheriff for ALL REOPLES of this county, showing no favoritism. GEORGE B. PRUITT, Candidate for sheriff, subject to the Democratic primaries. FOR LEGISLATURE I hereby announce myself as a candidate for the office of Member of the Legislature, for the 3rd legislative district of Maricopa County, subject to the approval of the voters in the Democratic primary, on September 9, 1924. J. C. (Jack) PROVOST 1224 E. Taylor St. BISHOP A. J. CAREY IS HOLDING ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE A. M. E. CHURCH IN PHOENIX THIS WEEK Wednesday morning, September 3, promptly at 8:30 o'clock, the Rt. Rev. A. J. Carey of Chicago, presiding bishop of the Fifth Episcopal District of the A. M. E. church, opened the 38th annual session of the Colorado Conference, in the historic Tanner Chapel A. M. E. church, 2nd street and Jefferson. Delegates and visitors were present from Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, many prominent churchmen being present among this group. At the morning session, organization of the conference was perfected, committees and other officers being appointed by the bishop. In his opening message to the conference, Bishop Carey stressed the importance of harmony, eloquently and forcefully portraying the beauty, strength and grandeur of Methodism The afternoon session was devoted to receiving reports of pastors, presiding elders and committees. The Hon. Dwight B. Heard, Republican candidate for governor, was introduced to the delegates and made a short and interesting talk. His remarks were preceded by an able talk by Bishop Carey, who in his original, persuasive and logical manner, drove home with telling force, some wonderful! truths concerning our racial group. Wednesday evening a grand welcome and reception were given the Bishop, delegates and visitors, at which time a splendid program was rendered. After a selection by the choir and the invocation by the Rev. E. E. Burkhalter, pastor of the First Colored Baptist church, an address of welcome on behalf of the city was made by City Manager, V. A. Thompson. Following a few preliminary remarks by the Bishop, the response to Mr. Thompson's address was made by Dr. A. W. Ward, pastor of Shorter Chapel, Denver, Colo. A vocal selection by Mrs. P. F. McCutcheon was well rendered, then followed the address of welcome on behalf of the citizens of Phoenix by Mrs. Lottie B. Shirley. Clad in an imported gown, dazzling in its beauty, Mrs. Shirley, in her own inimitable way, extended the hospitality of the citizens of Phoenix to the delegates and visitors in a manner that left no doubt in the minds of the visitors that they were right welcome to our city. The response to Mrs. Shirley's welcome address was made by the Rev. W. T. Thornton, pastor of the A. M. E. church at Douglas, Arizona. Mrs. Edith Lindsey rendered a difficult instrumental selection, following which the address of welcome on behalf of the local A. M. E. church was made by Mr. Jas. A. Green. Mr. Green read from manuscript a few words extending a cordial welcome to the delegates and visitors. An instrumental selection by Miss Corenne McCutcheon brought forth thunderous applause, after which Mr. M. A. White brought down the house with one of his favorite vocal selections. He graciously responded to an encore. The address of welcome on behalf of the ministerial alliance was made by the Rev. M. Thompson, pastor of the C. M. E. church. Dr. Thompson in a few well-chosen words, assured the visitors that our welcome knew no bounds, and that their stay in Phoenix would be a pleasant one. Mrs. M. A. White and Mrs. Lottie B. Shirley delighted the audience with a vocal duet that brought forth much applause. A violin and piano duet by Rachael and Eleanor Smith was well rendered, and they were roundly applauded. The address of welcome on behalf of the Women's Federated clubs was made by Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter, who is one of our most pleasing speakers, and knows how to get and hold the attention of her hearers. Her remarks were brief, yet lacked nothing in the expression of the cordial welcome extended by the Federated Clubs. The response by Mrs. A. W. Ward was a gem of rhetorical excellence, and easily the keynote speech of the evening. Mrs. Ruby Jones sang a beautiful selection that enthralled the audience and the applause was deafening. Mr. Aubrey M. Carter, Grand Lecturer or 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year the Most Worshipful Sovereign Grand Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, Arizona and Jurisdiction, made the welcome address on behalf of the fraternal organizations. Mr. Carter told the visitors, that if they were clothed with the proper credentials, a knock at the outer door would assure them admittance to over twelve secret societies among our group in this city, including the Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Shrine, Consistory, Knights and Daughters of Tabor, Clanthians, Household of Ruth, Sisters of the Mysterious Ten and others. After the Doxology by the choir and the benediction by the Rev. E. E. Burkhalter, refreshments were served and all were given an opportunity to meet the Bishop and visiting delegates. A. R. Smith, editor and owner of the Phoenix Tribune, presided as master of ceremonies. The conference is still in session, and each meeting is enlivened by friendly remarks from the presiding bishop, A. J. Carey. The missionary sermon was delivered Thursday night by the Rev. W. H. Mance of Rock Springs, Wyo. Friday morning the regular routine of the conference was continued and in the afternoon a missionary program was rendered. As we go to press, the secretary of the Conference reports money raised by the conference, $7225, general funds, and $3000 Dollar money. Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, the Bishop, delegates and visitors will be taken on a sight-seeing trip through the valley. All citizens with cars are expected to participate in this drive. Sunday morning at 11 o'clock services, Bishop Carey will deliver the sermon at Tanner Chapel A. M. E. church. Other ministers will be assigned to the sister churches. Sunday afternoon, the Bishop will read the appointments, and as many of the delegates as desire, may leave for their home Sunday evening. Phoenix is proud of the honor or entertaining the annual conference, and it is hoped that the bishop will insist on the delegates selecting Phoenix as a permanent meeting place for the Colorado Conference. Over fifty-five delegates are attending the conference, and among them are: Rev. A. W. Ward, Mrs. A. W. Ward, Miss Vera Ward, Rev. C. Hicks, Denver, Colo.; Rev. T. B. J.

Phone 6250 Managing Editor A. R. SMITH ELECTION DAY Tuesday, September 9th, the registered voters of Arizona will nominate men for the various state, county and precinct offices. We suggest that all voters make a careful study of the candidates, their records, attitude on the Klan and other important questions, before casting your ballot. The plain duty of every newspaper is to inform its readers, so that they may vote intelligently. Readers of the Phoenix Tribune, who have studied the announcements of the different candidates, as they appeared in this paper from time to time, should know the men best qualified for office. There is only one endorsement we wish to make at this time, and that is the candidacy of Thomas Maddock for Governor on the Republican ticket. The office of Governor is the most important of any in the state, due principally to the fact that his appointive power is so great. A man to occupy this position should be broad-gauged, absolutely square, and just a regular fellow. Maddock is such a man, and we believe it would be unfair to our readers for us to conceal these facts and refrain from endorsing him at this time. In our opinion, Maddock is the logical man for governor, not only because he is a "square-shooter," but for other good reasons too numerous to mention. Maddock's record while State Engineer, alone is enough to recommend him to favorable consideration by every Republican voter Tuesday, September 9th. In the event of his nomination, which is almost certain, both Democrats and Republicans can unite and elect Maddock governor. Go to the polls Tuesday and do your duty as a citizen.

He is staying at the St. Louis Hotel, 607 East Jefferson St. As primary day is drawing near and the duties of the office have kept me from seeing a great many of you Democratic voters, with the view of soliciting your support in my candidacy for the nomination of County Assessor, the office in which I am now incumbent, I will take this means of getting in touch with you and earnestly and sincerely solicit your support. The tax rolls, which are practically the entire source of revenue of the County, are in themselves this year second to none in the state, not forgetting, however, the unsecured personal property tax, the auto tax, as well as auto licenses, which play their part in the business handled by this office. The 1924 tax rolls show an increase in valuation over 1923 of more than $2,000,000.00. This increase is due mostly to the efforts of this office. Sincerely, VOTE FOR Returns from California Prof. P. Landry returned a few days ago from California, where he spent the summer with friends. Guests of the Gardners Bishop A. J. Carey, Rev. A. W.

OSBORN Absolutely opposed to the Ku Klux Klan. The only candidate for Governor who has the moral courage to denounce the Klan by name. I stand for a square deal to all citizens, regardless of race, color, creed or previous conditions of servitude. I am unalterably opposed to the activities in our State and Nation of the organization known as the Ku Klux Klan. Our government was founded on the belief that men were created free and equal and that every citizen has the right to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience. Any organization that would subject a person to a religious test to determine his fitness to hold public office, or that attempts to lay down the rule that because of racial or religious reasons one citizen is not entitled to the same consideration in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness that any other citizen is entitled to, is contrary to the spirit of freedom upon which our nation is founded; contrary to the spirit of the Constitution of the United States and contrary to the Constitution of Arizona. Let there be no misunderstanding on this question. I was opposed to the Ku Klux Klan when it first came into existence. I am opposed to it today and will be opposed to it as long as the breath of life remains in my body. SIDNEY P. OSBORN A Vote For Osborn Is a Vote Against the Klan. Jno. R. Bradshaw Democratic Candidate for STATE REPRESENTATIVE Sixth District I Stand For: The development and proper protection of all Arizona's resources and industries. I was a member of the 6th legislature and voted against the Compact. For: The proper enforcement of Arizona's laws and the 18th Amendment. For: The option of opening our schools with reading of the Bible or prayer. For: Revision of present laws so as to allow all legal voters holding community real estate to vote on all bond issues,—this assures both man and wife a vote. I favor amendment to our banking laws to protect individual depositors. Here From Bakersfield Mr. A. W. Moulton, of Bakersfield, Calif., is a recent arrival and is staying at the home of Mr. Benton James, 14 N. 11th street. He plans to attend the Arizona school of music and take advanced lessons on the violin. Mr. Moulton is quite a violinist, having gained an enviable reputation in California, however, he will continue his lessons at the Arizona school of music. ```markdown ``` Home From Flagstaff Mrs. Chas.

She reports a very delightful trip. me, and I can truthfully say that it was impartially and promptly performed. I wish to reiterate that there is nothing in my past record of which I am not proud, and it will be still untarnished at the close of this contest. I am asking for the votes of the people because I have faith in my ability to give them such service as they have a right to demand from their Sheriff, and it will give me the greatest pleasure to conduct the affairs of the office as the statutes of Arizona intend that it shall be conducted." Mr. Moore is making an effort to see every voter in the County, but even though he should not, he has friends in every community who are actively working for him, and we predict that his opponents will know that they have had a real race when the primary election is over. Mr. A. Morrison, who resided at South 9th avenue and Buckeye Road, passed away Thursday morning, September 4th, following a lingering illness. Mr. Morrison was one of the pioneer citizens of Phoenix, members of the African Methodist Episcopal church, and also a member of the Odd Fellows Fraternity. He was loved by all who knew him and his life was a shining example to all. He leaves the wife, sister-in-law, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn his death. The funeral announcement will be made in the daily papers. The funeral services for Chas. F. Carter, who died recently at the State Hospital were held Tuesday at the A. M. E. church. The deceased was a member of the Knights of Pythias and this organization had charge of the funeral arrangements. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. A large concourse of friends followed the remains to their last resting place, and interment was made in Forest Lawn cemetery. Our sympathy goes out to the mother in this her sad hour. House Guests Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Horne of Flagstaff, Ariz., and Mrs. R. W. Strode of Winslow, Ariz., are the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Chas.

Return from Vacation Mr. and Mrs. Julius Miller of Superior, Ariz., and Mrs. Julius Tubes of Phoenix, returned several days ago from a pleasant vacation spent in northern Arizona. The trip was made in Mr. and Mrs. Miller's new Oldsmobile touring car, and they report a delightful time. They visited the Grand Canyon, petrified forest and other places of interest in that section of the state. Mr. Miller stated that he felt ten years younger since making the trip, and the ladies did not need to speak, for they looked the part. Rev. and Mrs. W. T. Thornton, of Douglas, Arizona, delegates to the A. M. E. annual conference, are the house guests of Editor and Mrs. A. R. Smith, 1302 East Jefferson street. Mrs. Thornton is a sister of Mrs. Smith. M. Passes to Reward Funeral Held House Guests PAGE THREE Favors A Banking Law Protecting Depositors J. J. COX Democratic Candidate for STATE SENATOR Maricopa County The banker requires security when making a loan; the public should require security from the banker for money deposited in the banks. There is no excuse for the depositors losing in bank failures. Texas has had for the past fourteen years a guaranty law for the protection of depositors in state banks, with the result that no depositor in state banks has sustained any loss during the time this law has been in force. Some other states have similar laws to Texas, with like effect. A banking law with teeth in it means prosperity for the citizens of Arizona. It does not mean that our taxes will be raised or the rate of interest will be raised on loans. On the other hand good, honest, legitimate business by the banking institutions of our state will tend to lower taxes and the rate of interest, rather than to raise either. Bishop to Preach The Rt. Rev, A. J. Carey, D. D., A. M., L. L. D., bishop of the Fifth Episcopal District of the A. M. E. church, will deliver the sermon Sunday morning, 11 o'clock, at Tanner Chapel A. M.
