My Position

Politics is nothing but business and the best business conceived by man, and should be the cleanest because from clean politics must evolve pure government.
 If nominated aud elected, there will be no favoritism in the ad- ministration of government. ], be- lieve in a clean, square deal for every interest and every man.
 The principal things for which 1 shall strive will be:
 First: A government for all.
 Second: Economy in government:
 Third: Working for more and better school buildings and higher pay for teachers.
 Fourth: The adoption of meas ures that will, when fully matured, make the asylum for the insane a self supporting institution instead of burden to the taxpayers, as at present.
 Fifth: Prison reform, tending to the reduction of the present unnec- essary expense of that institution, The enforcement of more man. making methods and the substitu- ton of incentive" for punish. ment."
 Sixth: The continuation of the good roads movement and admin. Iistration on lines that will assure a more business like and permanent basis than could be secured in it's conception and early development
 Seventh: The instituting of many reforms in government which will result in elimination of many un. necessary expenses.
 Eighth: The closer working rela. ton between the executive and the district attorneys and boards of su' pervisors of the several counties.
 Ninth: The application of "ways' and means" to bring the people ol the state into closer relation, and the adoption of the principles ol the new science now known by all advanced students of 'humani' culture"
 Tenth: The elimination of all de- lays now in vogue in public busi ness. The "pigeon holing" of noth' ing that will admit of the answer of ives" or "no" the day it is re- ceived.
 l Eleventh: The promulgation O. those things which will bring peace and prosperity to Arizona anc thoroughly impregnate all with th' absolute knowledge that any in vestment is safe, and that unity O purpose. and & square deal to all il the motto of every true Arizonan | Respectfully submitted, A
