Editor Alma Record.
Dear Sir-How long are we who
rely upon the clock in the City Hall
of Alma for the time of day TO be
misled by it as we have been during
these last weeks? As | write the
clock in the City Hall is ten minutes
behind Detroit railroad time as re-
ceived at eleven a m. each morning
by telegram at the Alma station.
Travellers, merchants, teachers, pupils
are all sufferers in this matter. Whose
business is it to regulate and keep in
order the town clock, and why is this
not done?

The EXPERIENCE SOCIAL


The appearance last week of some
of the best known and most highly
respected ladies of Alma, in the ca
pacity of peddlars, was somewhat
startling. But almost every day last
week, these ladies assailed the town

popcorn, cake and many other vic

With great trepidation we set our
sleuth on the track of the mystery
and after short time, due to his
tireless efforts, he informed us that
this unexplained conduct of our So
ciety bellies, matrons and chaperons
was caused by the near approach of

This function is held annually at
the Presbyterian church. The ladies
OF the community settled the date for

Thanksgiving Day the s. $. A. students celebrated royalty the annual holiday. In striking contrast to the events of the pre- vious Thanksgiving, which re- suited in the burning of the Academy Building, they. this year, witnessed the laying of the corner stone of the New Building. The program consisted of songs. selections by the band, and speeches. among which were the retrospection of the school, given by Prof. Joseph Peterson; and the introspection. by Pres. Smith.
 The basketball games played during the holidays resulted as follows: The game between the first teams of St. Johns and Snowflake schools came out twenty to fourteen in favor of St. Johns; the second teams score was eighteen to twenty in favor of St. Johns the contest between St. Johns and Flagstaff came out nineteen to fourteen in favor of Flagstaff; and the final game, which was between Flag staff and Snowflake. resulted in a score of sixteen to seventeen in favor of Flagstaff. Great skill was manifest in the play ing. At the end of the first half of the game, the score was eleven to four in favor of Snow flake, but we were too confident, and furthermore, oCr boys were not able to stand the strain, and weakened during the second half, with the above re- suit, Our boys should be com plimented, as the stand was within one point of trying the champion team of the Territory.

candidate for governor came to Arizona forty-seven years ago and knows the state as few men now living know it. He has seen it develop from the Apache infested desert it was then to it's present magnificent proportions as producer of wealth and as state of homes. He has seen it develop and has borne important part in it's magnificent growth.
 He has twice served in the up per house of the Arizona legis- lature, was a member of the Arizona constitutional convention one of 12 of the minority party was one term attorney general under Governor Brodie as gover- nor; was associate justice of the Arizona supreme court under President Harrison, and in 1887 was named by the then democra- tic governor, Zulick. as one of three men to compile and codify the laws of the territory.
 Judge Wells is therefore pretty well known in Arizona. All the old time cattlemen and miners in northern Arizona call him 'Ed", and many of the people all over the territory still use only the first name when addres- sing the Republican candidate for governor of Arizona.
 Judge Wells is no longer as young as when he came to the territory, but he is still a vigorous and active man and is making an earnest campaign. He believes he ought to be elected governor because he thinks the Republican party can do more for the terri tory than the democratic party.
 A business administration of the territory is his motto; he says he is not devotee of any isms or fancies, but believes in administering the affair of a state, nation, county or city as man would administer his own business affairs. He came to Arizona as day loborer. then he farmed. then he raised cattle, and then he. became a lawyer, now he is a banker and mine overator thoroughly versed in the business needs of the state.
 He has always been recognized as a worker and a builder. He has never torn down, but has done much to build up. He is in- terested in bank at Prescott, his home. and as a conservative business man has been identified with all that has helped to make Yavapai one of the territory most advanced counties.
 As governor he will make Ari- zona take rank with the best of the states of the west. His ac- quaintance with the business men of the nation is as wide as the nation itself. The great cap- tains of industry, the empire builders know him and trust him. Flank his administration of state affairs with an adninistra- tin of Arizona's affairs in the national congress in the hands of such men as Ralph Cameron and Hoval Smith in the senate and rohn s. Williams in the house of representatives and the future of Arizona is assured. Capital will be invested, labor will be employ ed and prosperity will return.
 My administration will be business one and my policy will depend largely upon what the Legislature does in building upon the present constitution. It will be my policy to invite capital to the state by giving it all the pro tection can and at the same time properly safeguard and pro- tect the interests of our on people. !"
