To the People of Arizona:
At the request OF Mulford Winsor,

The most vital feature of the cousti-

people of Arizona reserving final lesis

leaving the door open for the actual
exercise of self government by the peo
pie composing your state.
This can be done by the Initiative
and Referendum provision in the
Constitution, and l would recommend
the form used by the state of Maine,
because Maine. being a rock ribbed

Hon. Ben. Clark Urges Democrats
to Hold Convention.

Hon. Ben r. CLARK, one of the best
known Democrats of Arizona, has
written the following letter. from
SolomonviIle, to Editor John o Dun
bar of the Arizona Democrat, which
will be of interest to many Santa Cruz
county readers of THE BORDER VI
DETTE:
John o. Dunbar,
Dear Sir: L am very much in =
clined to the opinion that territorial
convention should be called and held
in the near future. for the purpose
of adopting and making public a
democratic platform upon which our
candidates are to make the race for
delegate to the constitutional con
vention.
I" If this is not done we are liable to
have to face the very embarrassing g
condition of having our candidates in
one county advocating, while our
candidates in an other comfy are
making the race on an issue entirely
different.
"Framing a state constitution is q
new thing for the people of Arizona,
and unless we are able to show to the
people the merits of the things for
which we stand, 1 am afraid party
lines and past party affiliations will be
discarded and the candidate most
capable of making himself good fell
low will receive majority of the votes
cast regardless of politics or anything
else.
Talk this over with the democrats
of your county. and if the proposition
meets the approval of yourself and
and those with whom you talk. make
the move looking to the calling of
this convention.
with best regards,
