Delegate Ralph Cameron is deserv-

the statehood resolution and it ill
becomes some of the territorial pa
pers to disparage his efforts in be-
half of statehood SO far as this pa
per has been able to ascertain Mr.
Cameron has worked faithfully for
the people of the territory, and we
believe in giving credit where credit
is due. Many times the people OF
Parker have had occasion to call up
on Mr. Cameron to straighten out
local affairs before the interior de-
partmant, and we have always found
him willing to do everything within
his power. While many may not

The Appeal has quite a local circu-

not be able to maintain its circula-

from Healy's viewpoint. Haaly bears

WENDEN HAS A FUTURE.

The agricultural and mining re-
sources of Wenden have been attract
ing a great deal of attention the past
few months, and scores of settlers
have taken up land and are engaged
in making substantial improvements
on their homesteads. The coming
fall and winter promises to witness
greater mining activity in that sec
ton than for years past. Farming
and mining are the best two re
sources a new country can possess,
and in this respect Wenden appears
to be most fortunate.
Arrangements are now in progress
for deep boring to determine the pos
sibility of striking an artesian flow
of water for irrigation purposes. If
this proves successful there is bound
to be a great rush for lands in that
vicinity. An electric lighting plant
is planned for the town as we'll as a
water works system, all of which
shows that the Wendenites are not
lacking in enterprise.
Wenden is deserving of more pub
licity than it has been receiving in
the past, and The Post is always
ready to assist the towns of north
ern Yuma county in this respect.
With this end in view arrangements
have been made with Judge M. M.

MEANS MUCH TO PARKER.

1t seems incredible, yet true, that
Arizona has at last been accorded the
great boon of statehood. While
statehood is as yet withheld until we
vote out of our constitution the Sec
t:oa relating to the recall of the jul
d;.iary, that part of the program is
Ii erely matter of form, as practl-
cally every voter having the interests
of the new state at heart will not hes
itf te to comply with the resolution as
passed by the senate and house and
approved Monday by the president.
later, if it is the will of the majori-
ty, Arizona may incorporate the recall
CT the judiciary into it's fundamental
law
According to advices from Phoenix
the governor will issue his proclama-
tion calling the general election soon
after the president sends his official
notification of the passage of the
statehood resolution. The election
will not be earlier than November,
End it may be December before it
occurs A full complement of state
and county officers, legislature,
member of the house of representa-
by the legislature are to be chosen
The men elected to office at the forth
coming election will hold office until
Januar,, 913, or approximately,
twelve months. Next year the regu-
Ira election will take place, at which
officers will be elected for two years.
According to the constitution an
advisory vote will be cast for United
States senators, and if the legisla-
tors adhere to this provision the two
receiving the greatest number of
votes will be selected.
Candidates for the various state
and county offices and members OF
the legislature will be nominated by
the people at direct primaries, thus
doing away with the state and county
convention plan of selecting candi-
dates
1t is expected that the people of
Parker will have important business
before the next state legislature
and it would be well to begin the
work of sizing up available legislative
timber. We are entitled to at least
one member of the legislature from
this end of the county, and that man
must be qualified to represent us in
every particular.
1t is quite probable that before the
opening of the reservation lands it
will be necessary to have the new
state of Arizona adopt a Carey or
district irrigation act. By so doing
the dam proposed at Headgate Rock
provision first being made for an ade
quate irrigation system it is doubt
full whether the interior department
will open the lands to settlement. By
the passage of a Carey act early in
the session it is possible to secure
the opening of the reservation soon
after it's survey, which is to take
place the coming winter.
With the necessary state legislation
completed and with two senators and
congressman representing us al
Washington, the thousands of acres
of rich agricultural lands adjacent to
Parker will not long remain bottled
up Within a few years millions OF
dollars worth of taxable property will
be added unto Arizona, and upon the
banks of the mighty Colorado will
arise one of the new states most
prosperous cities

prevail upon Healy to deliver the
order for his papers to the postmaster.
He willingly acquiesced and stated
that he would retract the statements
made against the injured lady.
''While in the air Healy signified
his willingness too sign" Just imag
inc man in that position being
able to ''signify his willingness"
about anything. Is there a reader of
the Appeal who can swallow such
statement?
The Appeal article continues with
the statement that Healy made ap-
peals to the governor and other terri
torial officials, who refused to go
further into the matter. And why
should they? The grand jury threw
out the case after ascertaining the
facts, knowing full well that jury
could not be secured to convict the
participants in Healy's deportation.
for his attack upon woman. He
was an undesirable citizen, and the
officials knew it, therefore they re-
fused to keep on issuing warrants
just because they were demanded by
an irresponsible agitator and med
dler
Here's where flealy refused a
bribe, another lie:
On July 16, 1910, Healy appeared
before Justice M. NJ Briggs demand
ing warrants for members of the mob.
Briggs refused warrants, saying that
practically all connected with the mob
were personal friends or business as
sOciates. AS a counter proposition
the justice arranged for Healy to
meet him the following morning AT
this meeting Briggs announced he
was authorized to offer Healy $5, 900
in lieu of warrants. Healy refused
the bribe The warrants were not
issued at that time
Now, isn't that about the limit.
Just imagine Healy refusing a bribe
of $4,000 This in itself is enough
TO brand the entire story as published
by the Appeal a mass Of falsehOod
and miSStatements. Here's another
hot In l.,
true:
AS evidence of Legislative and fed
oral completely in the case, note this:
The poStOffice department removed
Postmaster Joe Raney, a member of
the mob and one of the men who at
tackled Healy at the pOstOffice, and
replaced him with John Roberts,
leader of the mob and the man who
personally handed the order to flealy
for his signature while the rope was
about his neck.
Mr. Raney resigned the position as
postmaster solely because he refused
to give ii his personal attention He
always hired an assistant postmaster.
anu dccOIulIS 10 reg IldllOHS Ul lHt
department governing offices of the
fourth class postmastera must person
ally give the office their attention
The department called Mr.. Raney'S
attention to the matter, and he replied
that he did not have the time to de-
vote to the office. Thereupon he
sent in his resignation.
The Appeal is no doubt stating
the truth when it says the case is
not yet finished The finish, how
ever, will probably end in a number
of libel suits filed against the Ap-
peal to Reason AS to the makers

BAD FIRE AT COKE
WILLIE YESTERDAY

The Fates are laying their cruel
hands heavily upon Cokeville of late
Three times within the past three
months has the little town been
visited by the evil spirits. The last
visit of the Fates was yesterday
afternoon, in the form of the fire
demon which destroyed Billy Nor.
gan's building, occupied By Hag.
gerty & Kennedy's saloon, Roy
Finnell's tailor shop and Marshall
Reynolds law office.
The fire started about 8 o'cl 1ck in
the tailor shop and was evidently
caused by the explosion of a gaso
line stove used by Mr.. Finnell.
As soon az the alarm was given
the whole town turned out TO fight
the flames and by heroic work, not
only prevented the fire from spI cad
ing to adjoining buildings, but snc
ceeded in saving all Of Mr.. Rryn-
old's law library, Haggtrty & Ken
nedy,s bar fixtures and large por.
tion of their stock.
Insurance on the building expired
on Wednesday and the policy had
not been renewed. Earl Haggerty.
who has been in Montpelier several
days, is unable TO give any idea of
the amount of their loss, but thinks
it will run close to $1,000.
VIM. Wyman was badly burned
on the arm during the fire.
