The Parker post., 1911-11-18

We advocate revision Of the re-
venue laws for the new state in
abolition of the present unjust OBJ
selete and burdensome system of col
lection of delinquent taxes in semi
annual installments with a reason
able penalty for delinquencies which
shall be diverted from the tax at
torney and tax collector to the pub
lie treasury.
We pledge liberal legislation for
construction of a good road system
for Arizona, in order that the farm
er may get his product to market
with the greatest possible ease and
facility and the miner and other in.
dustrial operators may enjoy the best
possible facilities for moving machin.
cry, supplies and ores.
We declare in favor of legislation
which shall insure lessees of school
lands the preferential right to pur.
chase such lands when they shall be
sold according to law.
To complete Arizona's system of
direct nominations we advocate the
election Of delegates to national con-
ventions at popular primaries and
an advisory vote for presidential nom
nations that the delegates may be
instructed directly by their respec-
tive parties as to the popular choirt
for presidential and vice presidential
nominees.
The public school is the bulwark
of our civilization We favor a pro.
gressive policy of extension and in
provement of the system and pledge
liberal support to all measures
looking to that end.
We pledge all of our candidates
to the senate and house Of represen-
tatives to abide by the advisory vote
of the people for candidates to the
United States senate, as expressed
by the electors at the polls.
We pledge such legislation looking
to the fixing of responsibility for
wages due from corporations to their
employees as shall obviate the loss
of pay to the wage Garner.

counties and cities thereof, they shall
be let only to bidders whose print
ing plants pay taxes in Arizona and
who pay wages to Arizona printers.

and just compulsory arbitration law
to adjust all differences arising be-
tween labor and public utilities cor
porations, associations or concerns
The constitution of Arizona adopt
ed by the people Is the fundamental
law of the state and we pledge a
faithful adherence to its provisions
but in order to attain statehood now,
under the conditions of the Flood
Smith act, we advocate elimination
from the constitution at the coming
election of the recall, as applied to
the judiciary; and we pledge that
the first legislature of the state of
Arizona will provide for submission
to the people at the earliest possible
moment as an amendment to the
constitution the question of the re.
call of the Judiciary.
Business success depends upon
ability, character and integrity and
the republican party believing that
the affairs of the new state of Ari-
zona should be in the most capable
hands presents ticket consisting
of men eminently qualified to ad-
minister the affairs of the new gov
ernment actively, honestly, econom-
ically and efficiently; and we pledge
our candidates If elected to safeguard
the interests of the people and the
tax payers and at the same time pur-
sue such a broad and liberal policy

as will be consistent with a low tax
rate.
