L0TS0F ENTHUSIASM

Every since the first announce
ment of the big annual fair, the
town has been alive with racing
talk and if we are to believe
one-half we hear, there will be
something doing in Ekalaka on
September 7th and 9th. There
never before was as much en-
thusiam displayed in our racing
meets as there is in this one and
everyone is looking forward to
good time and a large crowd. A
good sign of success for the fair
is the work Of training the race
horses which has been going on
for some time. The free-for-all
600 yard running race will good
event on the program and will
be filled by several good horses.
The Camp Crook and Box Elder
ball teams have accepted the in
vitations to come and play on the
fair dates and some good games
are predicted. The committee
expects to hear from the Baker
team in a few days as to their
coming. There is some talk of a
boxing match being pulled off
at that time and no doubt the
event will be arranged.

BOSTON BEAN EATER
 ARIZONA WARRIOR

The Fl Paso Times has mad its attention attracted by the alleged statement CT Ralph Cameron that he could not find an Arizona boy who could fll the requirements of cadetship at the Annapolis naval school The Times, quite naturally, doubts this proposition. knowing Ari- zona as well as it does. and pro ceeds to make the following com ment concerning Cameron and his Boston bean-edter cadet
 Certainly, in all Arizona-the land of eternal sunshine, rugged grandeur. magnificent mountains and beautiful valleys-where the very soul or ordinary man is at tuned to it's magnificent surround ings. and where all men have con stant God-given inspiration and in- centiye to aspire for greater and nUbler things, there was one boy who nursed an ambition for q naval career. That there was one such boy and he was deliberately and cruny ignored, is the testimony of n father. who evidently felt the in- justice of the Boston appointment as keenly as his deserving son.
 The suggestion by Commodore Cameron that Arizona boys to the manner born did not desire the ap- pointment is a calumny upon Arlzo- na The young men of Arizona are just as ambitious and deserving as the young men Of any other state in the union. Reared in the mas nificent environments that surround them, they cannot be other than men of noble ambitions. Heirs of a history that is replete with noble achievements embodying perseyer- ance. magnificent endurance, Spar tan courage and sublime determin- ation, they can but feel the fires oi cumulative ambition burning con tiuually in their hearts and as their fathers have met and over come. so will these gallant and promising young men Of the south west carry the flag of splendid achievement 10 still greater heights.
 In the appointment Of the Boston bean eater to Annapolis, Commodore Cameron robbed an Arizona boy of his natural heritage, won by the long fight against diversity made by the fathers of Arizona II shows a total lack of the real Arizona spirit, and calls for the quick con demnation of every loyal son Of that rock-ribbed democratic state.
