CAMERONS WELCOME HOME

The red corpuscles of real repub-
 licanism will be rampant in Phoenix today. It will be republican day all day, all evening and all night. There
 will be a procession of important party events that will begin in the early morning when a reception com mittee in automobiles will meet Ralph Cameron, Arizona's delegate to con gress. at the santa Fe depot just be- fore o'clock and escort him to his rooms
 At 10 o'clock the territorial con ference will begin in MeIczcr's hall and at o'clock in the afternoon the county republicans wiH assemble in the Third Avenue theater to make the preliminary arrangements for carrying Maricopa county at the first state election
 But the big show of the day will occur this evening. when all people in the city of whatever political per suasion are invited to gather on the city hall plaza and welcome home Ralph Cameron. the delegate who went to Washington and actually brought back statehood after demo cratic delegates had been working on the job for a quarter of a cen tury
 Arrangements have been made on a splendid scale and it is confidently announced that tonights celebration will be the biggest political demon stration ever witnessed in Arizona. The committee in charge has pro vided 1900 seats that are now in readiness, where the doubter may go and take a look at them 4 huge speaking stand has been erected in front of the city hall. which will be occupied in the main by the promi- Hent visiting republicans and such local gentlemen as have to do with the speaking and the ceremonials
 There will be barrels of rcd fire and its burning will begin early in the evening while two bands will be playing for the entertainment of the crowds as they assemble. The plaza will be appropriately decorated. as the streets already are, with wealth of flags and bunting IL is to be primarily a welcome home to Ralph Cameron. who has done things, but more than that. it will be a repub- lican jubilee. the first republican par tisan demonstration since the s-- curing of statehood
 There will be a fine speaking pro gram. That much may be assured. though the program cannot be fully announced in advance. for it is eX- pected there will be short talks by many party leaders from all over the territory Governor Sloan will de- liver an address and MT. Cameron, of course, will speak. Hoval A. Smith will probably be heard from and score could be mentioned who are likely to be called upon, but no pro- gram will be perfected until the speaking committee finds out who is here and who will respond. But that there will be orators enough is certainty and that they will tell of the growing party enthusiasm all over Arizona may be depended upon.
