Last month this paper published an
account Of the great Land Show to be
held In New York City on November
to IL, to get the most Industrious
New York .rs both Native Americans
and foreigners--out to the broad acres
Of the country, away from the over
crowded, unhealthy cities, where work
is scarce and hard to find. Much has
been done since then. The farmers all
over the country are going to try and
get that James J. Hill cup away from
the Northwest. We must prevent this
by raising better wheat and must have
a big exhibit from this section-so that
we will not only have the best chance
to win this valuable $1,000 Cup, but
that many of the New Workers will
come to our section and buy land. We
need more good neighbors and must help
boom this locality and also the Great
Northwest.
What You Must Do to Win This Cup.
The conditions are very simple and
easy and any farmer or grower in the
United States can easily compete for
this cup.
The trophy cup offered by James j..
Hill Chairman Of the Board of Direc-
tors Of the Great Northern Railway
is Of silver and is valued at $1,000. It
IS over five feet high and is deliberately

The Leavenworth Union Labor Case
Appealed by State.

The union labor cases from Leaven-
worth county, in which Alfred Acken-
hansen was charged by the state with
violation of the laws protecting union
labor. has been appealed by the state
to the supreme court Ackenhausen
runs a saddlery shop in Leavenworth

interests with trying to coerce three
union labor men to give up their labor
affiliations before they were allowed to
work in his shop. These men belonged
to the International United Brother
hood of Leather Workers on Horse
Goods. The union took up the charges
made by the men against Ackenhausen

worth court on the charge of violating
union labor laws
Ackenhausen was discI arged by the
lower court and the state appeals.

within the rights granted him by the
state constitution and the bill of rights.

this case will be watched with inter
est by union men and employers over

Ling GREETED
BY LARGE CROWD
Continued from first page.)

Continued from first page.)
round of applause, not only for
Mark Smith, but also for Mr. Ling,
whose manly tribute to one Of his
opponents won him many friends in
Stafford.
1t is generally admitted through
out the Territory that one of the
senatorial nominations will go to
the north and it is freely predicted
that Mr.. Ling will be the man
chosen. The many friends Of Mark
Smith are picking upon Mr.. Ling
as second choice, due ITO thes long
and able support given Mark in
past campaigns by the northern
lawyer and the well known friend
ship existing between the two men.
| Mr.. Ling's friends in the north. and
that means practically every demo
crat north of the Maricopa line, are
CALAMITY supporting Mark Smith
and II is the concensus of opinion
that Smiths friends in this and
other counties. will repay the COM
pliment by supporting Mr.. Ling.
Mr.. Ling, according to all reports,
will receive eighty per cent of the
democratic vote in northern Arizona
and it is also freely predicted that
he will lead the ticket in Cochise
county. He will receive splendid
support also in Pima, Santa Cruz,
Maricopa and Pinal counties, and at
the present time it seems certain
that he and Mark Smith will be the
democratic senatorial nominees.
Preceding Mr.. Ling's address,
Milford Winsor. of Yuma county,
candidate for Congress, was intro
duced and addressed the audience
for about one hour. MIR. Winsor
set forth his claims for the high Of
fee to which he aspires in way
that could not be misunderstood.
He gave the reasons clearly why a
democrat should be elected; why a
man of that faith could do more for
the people Of the State than man
from any othsr political party.
After his speech in Stafford, Mr.
Winsor went to Thatcher and filed
an engagement in a meeting with
e. S. Ives, who spoke to large and
enthusiastic audience at that place.
The other. candidates who were
present and spoke were Sidney P.
Osborne, candidate for Secretary of
State; w. P Geary and E. L. Short,
candidates for Corporation Commits
sioners.
All three gentlemen made speech
es that impressed their auditors.
While here all the gentlemen made
many friends and will undoubtedly
receive good vote at the hands of
the democrats of Graham county.

DR.. Fl. A. Hughes. democratic
candidate for the nomination for

also addressed meeting in Wick

DR.. Hughes is good talker, a
strong prohibitionist and believer
in the principles Of democracy,
but he makes mistake in attack
ing organized labor, as he did in
speaking Of the union Of San Fran
cisco. His speech contained much
spleen against candidates Weedin

secure him many votes in this

EDITOR GUARDIAN am glad
that you are leaving nothing undone
to secure the nomination of Mr.. H.
d. Ross Of Prescott as one of the
three supreme judges of Arizona
/ believe it is both wise and just for
the democrats OF Graham county to
support Mr.. Ross for this high office.
Wise, because he is worthy as a
man and thoroughly qualified as a
jurist and practical lawyer. Just,
because he is the only democratic
candidate for the Supreme Bench
from the northern part of the State.
The fact that Mr.. Ross is the unani.
nous choice of the democracy of
the north is ample assurance to us
that he is an excellent man for the
place.
The democrats of Graham county
may be depended on to do the right
thing in this matter by Mr.. Ross,
the democracy of our five northern
counties and all the people Of Ari-
IONA.
