IX—No. 376 Voters of Arizona are this year hearing from a candidate whose method of campaigning is certainly unique. Not exactly unprecedented but at least unusual, very different from that of the ordinary politician. Probably Lewis W. Douglas, candidate for congress, does not deserve any particular credit for the way he is presenting his message to the people, for it is the only way he knows. Instead of blaring highsounding nothings about "your sacred and inalienable rights" and "the glorious future of our wonderful state," Douglas is telling the voters the truth, much of it unpleasant, about themselves and their state. We have had many an alluring picture painted for us by office-seekers whose only real convictions were that they needed jobs, of an inland empire that would be one uninterrupted stretch of fertile farms, rich mines and busy factories from Utah to Sonora, from New Mexico to California. In the last few years most of these glittering prophecies have been based upon development of the Colorado river. The Colorado is to be diverted over our deserts through canals that are to cost a scant $5000,000,000 or so, and through 160-mile tunnels. It is to furnish practically free power for mines, cotton mills, silage cutters and curling irons, and pay all our taxes forever and ever, amen! Only somebody-or-other has got to be elected to something-or-other in order that he may protect our God-given heritage from the grasping this-or-that. Douglas dares to stand up and tell the voters that Arizona won't get anything much out of the Colorado unless she reserves, fights for and establishes her right to impose a royalty tax on power generated in PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SEPTEMBER, 1926 this state. And unless the river is developed by means of dams with both ends in Arizona, they may as well be in Chjna for all the good they will do us. For instance, if the Boulder canyon dam is built, the turbines will be in Nevada; the switchboard will be in Nevada; the water impounded will be used to irrigate the Chuckawalla valley in California; the power generated will be used in California; several all-Arizona damsites will be covered up. Arizona will get the privilege of collecting taxes on one end of a piece of masonry, provided it ever passes to private ownership. Furthermore, Douglas dares to tell us that the Swing-Johnson bill is going to be passed by congress unless Arizona gets together with the two other lower basin states upon some reasonable plan of development. For the influence of Arizona at Washington is exactly nothing compared with that of California, now combined with the upper basin in a scheme to ignore our vast, sparsely populated and therefore politically insignificant state. We are warned by Douglas that our mines are being depleted and must be replaced by some other resource unless the already heavy burden of taxation upon our farming lands becomes completely unbearable. A tremendous area of farming land must be placed under cultivation before it can approach in taxable value the mines which are now bearing 48 percent of the load. Grazing, of course, has reached its limit. We have little chance of becoming a great manufacturing state; much as we may dislike to admit it, Southern California is going to be the manufacturing section of the west. An all-year climate, freight rates, water transportation, accessibility to iron and other raw materials, give California advantages PRICE TEN CENTS over us in that respect that we may as well recognize without argument. Cheap power is not nearly so vital to our big mines as it once was thought to be, since changes in smelting practices have made it possible to use waste heat from reverberatory furnaces to generate electricity at a lower cost than it can ever be transmitted from the Colorado. To a certain extent, of course, cheap current will aid in the development of new mines. It will encourage some manufacturing. Some new land will be brought under cultivation with pumped water. But on the whole the new wealth created by abundant power will not be nearly as great as the unthinking optimists have been predicting. Therefore, unless we can get the Colorado developed by a series of dams with both ends in Arizona, and can levy taxes on the power generated for transmission beyond the borders of the state, the Grand Canyon will continue to be merely a scenic asset to us. If the Boulder Canyon dam is built, creating much wealth for California and none for Arizona, it may be generations before there is any further development of the stream that is capable of delivering 5,000,000 horsepower. All these things and many more Lewis W. Douglas is telling the people of Arizona straight from the shoulder; and any person who is not afraid to face the realities must agree with him in all essential respects. It remains to be seen whether the electors will appreciate or understand the audacity of a candidate who has the nerve to deal in facts instead of fairy tales—Mesa Journal-Tribune. They tell us that the democrats of the State are whetting their swords, getting ready to make a hard fight to land Carl Hayden in the United States Senate. Well, that may be true, yet it is understood that this is not the first time that the democrats "whetted up" before a thorough defeat.

Vote for Hunt Local News Democratic Club Organized The Independent Democratci Voters Club was organized a short time ago at the residence of Mrs. L. A. Walker, 1122 East Jefferson street. The object of the club, according to officers of the organization, is to protect the candidates from exploitation by individuals who would commercialize the colored vote, and to give the colored electorate an opportunity to vote according to their convictions. Mr. Ed Seymour is president, Mr. J. V. M. Goldsmith treasurer, and Mrs. L. Ada Walker, Secretary of the organization. Several interesting and well-attended meetings of the club have been held and the organization is growing in popularity. All colored voters, regardless of party affiliation, are invited to attend the meeting of the club. ```markdown ``` Labor Day Picnic Various organizations of the colored people have united in a plan to stage a great picnic at East Lake Park on Labor Day.

CAMERON AND THE COOLIDGE DAM of the San Carlos Irrigation Project on the Gila River The bridge is a large, arched structure that spans a river. It has three arches and is supported by a series of pillars. The bridge is surrounded by a forested area with trees and shrubs. The Coolidge Dam, which is now in the course of building, was authorized by the Cameron San Carlos Bill. The great structure will cost $5,500,000. About 100,000 acres of land in the Florence-Casa Grande Valley will be the initial area to be reclaimed. The dam will be about the size of the Roosevelt Dam and the entire project will eventually rival the Salt River Valley project. Cameron succeeded, during his first term as United States senator, in doing what others had been trying to do for 20 years or more: secure passage of a San Carlos Bill. IT'S RESULTS THAT COUNT. ONE GOOD TERM DESERVES ANOTHER Page Twelve CAMERON A of the San Car "By the introduction of the San Carlos Bill in Congress and the great fight made for its passage, Senator Cameron has achieved a result which should, not only mark him as a sterling statesman, but also should gain him an everlasting gratitude of all Arizona, Indians as well as whites."

Ac- cording to reports coming into Mad- dock headquarters, he will carry Maricopa county by 2000 votes and all the other counties will give him a plurality. The colored Republican voters of this county are lined up almost solidly for Maddock, and this ‘s as it should be, for Tom Mad- dock is the man for the common p ople. As Governor of Arizona, he will represent all the people of this great commonwealth, fairly, impar- tially and without regard to class, creed or color. He is the logical man to occupy the Governor’s chair, and all right thinking Republicans should vote for Tom Maddock at the primaries, September 7th. Let’s make it a landslide for Maddock! LEADERSHIP The one big issue which is facing ‘he Negro in this State, is that of leadership. That leadership which does not come by the way of the self-seeker, the job hunter and the petty job holder. The one thing that we should re- member at all times, is that: the fel- low who holds the political job can hardly become a safe leader, for he is bound by self interest and as a rule, moves and acts at the behest of his boss. And it seldom happens that the boss is looking out for our interest. In this State, we have suffered too much already because of activi- ties of self-seekers, who strive for place and position, *hat they may bargain and sell the race at will. Let it not be forgotten how the Col- ored High School was handled by men of our race, who, for selfish reasons, would destroy it just for the sake of a little job. Let us think on these things, and when this class of leadership is put forward by the bosses, let us refuse to follow. Page Three J. K.
