ceived good encouragement at the va
rious towns he visited in this end Of

NICHOLSON GOOD
BOOSTER FOR IVES

George Nicholson, the genial cOun
ty treasurer of Yuma county, was in
Parker Thursday promoting the can
didacy of Eugene S. Ives for United
States senator. Accompanied by G
c.. Dunn, cashier of the Parker Bank
& Trust company, Mr.. Nicholson
called on practically every voter here
and presented forceful arguments why
Ives should be one of the nominees
for senator on the democratic ticket
Mr. Nicholson spent the past week
in the northern part of the county
boosting from early morning until
late at night for Mr.. Ives, and he is
doing it out of pure friendship for
Ives and under the belief that he
would make Arizona one of the best
men the new state could possibly
send to Washington.
Mr.. Ives resided in Yuma county
for about seven years and during that
period he was twice chosen as a
member OF the territorial council and
each time the council selected him
as its president. AS a member OF
that body he drafted the present
eight-hour law and was successful III
getting it passed by the territorial
legislature 1t is quite generally
known that Mr.. Ives is faithful in
fulfilling his promises, and never
fails to make good his word.
Mr. Nicholson thinks little of the
argument made in some quarters that
Ives position as counsel to the SOutl :
ern Pacific would make of him a
corporation senator if elected to
that high office.
THE day of the corporation hire
lings in congress has passed" de-
clared Mr. Nicholson, even ii such
a statement were true, which it ia
not. If Mr.. Ives is elected he will
serve the people of Arizona anu not
the corporations of the state. Ives
is one of the very few big men of Ari-
IONA and he is too broad minded and
too honest to become the tool of any
corporation in the world. TO know
Ives is to believe in his sincerity OF
purpose He is one of Arizona g
most brilliant attorneys and an orator
of unusual ability and force. The
south end of the county is practically
solid for Ives, and | feel confident
that he will win at the primary cleo
ton by good plurality"

MEL GREENLEAF FOR SHERIFF.

Mel Greenleaf of Yuma visited Par
ker Tuesday in the interest of his
candidacy for the office of sheriff
of Yuma county, and before he left
town the next day his genial per-
sonality won for him many warm
supporters. Mr. Greenleaf is a good
campaigner and he has a way of max
ing friends who do not forget him
when the time comes for them to
cast their ballots.
While in Parker Mr. Greenleaf was
kept busy meeting and talking to the
voters, and it can be said that he
made most excellent impression on
everyone he came in contact with.
In fact, he seems to have captured
the democratic vote for sheriff in
this precinct, and it will not be sur
prising if he outdistances his oppO-
nents in the race in the north end of
the county.
From 1898 to 1896 Mel Greenleaf
served six years as sheriff of this
county, and during his incumbency in
that office he made a fearless and
honest official. He has resided in
Yuma county for thirty years and has
{. laige and loyal following in the
south end of the county In the north
end he was not SO we'll known be-
fore his visit here the past week.
At the present time Mr. Greenleaf
holds the responsible position Of SUI
perintendent of construction of lev
ees and canals in the q. s. Reclama-
ton Service at Yuma. Mr. Green
leaf stated to a Post representative
that he was confident Of securing
the nomination next Tuesday. and
believes he will have walk away at
the general election.
He left Parker on. the early morn
ing train Wednesday for Bouse, Swan
sea and Quartzsite Owing to his
connection with the reclamation SER
vice his time in this end of the
county was necessarily limited but
if he is successful in landing the
nomination he promised to pay north
ern Yuma county another visit before
the general election in December.

A NOTED ARIZONA MINE.

The Vulture mine, Is miles south
Of Wickenburg, Ariz., is one of the
most noted early-day mines of the
southwest. 1t was discovered in
1863 by Henry Wickenburg when
he and associates were out on the
desert looking for Indians, and since
that date the United States mint

million dollars in gold has been TAX
