REPUBLICAN SUCCESS
 WILL HELP FARMERS
Party Has the Only Specific Plan For the Disposition of School
 Land Question.

The thousands of AriZonans who in the early days of the territory settled Upon and improved school lands are vitally interested in that plank in the republican platform which declares in favor of legislation which shall in sure lessees of school lands the pref orential right to purchase such lands when they shall be sold according to law
 The lands may be put upon the maket any time five years after the proclamation of statehood and it is of the greatest importance to the lessees and occupants thereof that steps be at once taken to protect them ir. their right to compensation. for any improvements they may have ence as purchasers. or in case they are overbid to pay for buildings and the work done toward clearing level ing. ditching or otherwise bringing to a productive state.
 On this improvement question the democratic platform is absolutely si- lent. the democrats making no pledge whatever to see that the men who have improved school lands while oc- cupying them under lease are recom- pensed for what they may have done to claim them and make them pro- ductive.
 It is true the constitution provides that no school lands shall be sold for less than 8 per acre and that no school lands susceptible of irrigation shall be disposed of at less than s25 per acre. but those figures contem- plate raw lands. It would he unfair tC those who by their labor have made lands productive and therefore valuable should be compelled to bid in their improved lands in competi- tion with the world unless the diff ference between the highest bid and the ruling price of raw lands in the

BUSINESS QUESTIONS
 ENTER INTO CAMPAIGN

Arizona has five great industries
 mining, agriculture. cattle breeding. wool raising. numbering upon the de- velopment of which her prosperity de- rends
 The republicans of the state recog
 nize ths-to the fullest. They point with pride" to what they have done | in the past to the end that those in
 Gustres may be developed giving en- Lloyment to millions of capital and ] thousands of men at good wages and | pledge themselves in their platform tn a continuance of that policy in the
 following unmstakable language: The advancement and development of Arizona depends upon expansion and growth of her great cattle. wool, mine, lumber and citrus fruit indus 1 tries and We demand of and pledge
 our senators and representatives in congress to work to secure for those industries the same measure of pro- lection that is given the manufactur- ing industries of the east and we stard for such progressive, sound and
 intelligent statesmanship as will meet the needs of the country in a just revision of the tariff to the end that
 the cost of living may be reduced without subjecting the American wage earner to the competition of cheap foreign labor and that American en- terprise and industry shall not be stifled."
 The democratic platform has not a line. word. q syllable touching l this great question.
 The prospector has been great factor in the location of the wealth producing mines which have made Arizona famous. During the pre-
 primary campaign many promises were made by democratic candidates
 as to what that party would do to
 make it possible to prosecute his very
 necessary work with greater facility and enable him tO reap a greater re- ward for his labOrs. Those promises were forgotten when the party coun- cil met and not a line regarding the rrospector found it's way into the rarty platform.
 Read what the republican platform has to say on this subject; every prOspectOr. every miner should read ! that particular plank and commit it to memory. IL follows:
 We approve the aims and objects of the bureau of mines and the
 United States geological survey in
 the efforts if the first tO improve
 the conditions under which miners work and the second in developing and unfolding the mineral resources
 of the country And to further the development of the mineral industries
 of Arizona. we advocate revision anG

 mining laws in order to protect bet
 ter the prOspector in acquisition of
 mining titles and the legitimate in
 vestor in the development of mine properties"

she swore that after hearing the sec

shirt worn by Hargis at the time he
was killed was put in evidence against

The sensation OF the prosecution was

While in jail McNabb, he said. told him
that he was obliged 10 do what he did

defendant is a married man. and lived
with his wife and child in Vaughn,
that he was a travelling man and his
work took him away from home a
good deal of the time, and during the
absence Of the defendant. Mr.. Hargis
visited the home of the defendant and
remained there late at night; that Har-
gis often accompanied Mrs McNabb to
parties; that on Saturday, previous to
the killing, Hargis went to Tucum-

these facts were communicated to Nc

sprang from his bed and shot Hargis.

criminal acts On the part of Mrs. Nc

learned caused him (McNabb) to be-
come suspicious and very much excited,
