for divorce in the Juneau district
court.
John and Annie have, according to
the petition, tried married life togeth-

the fault that maiagrer has been with

her, she says, time and time again; he
beat her, he tore her hair, he clicked
her frequently, and often locked her

Also, he had unique and original way

.fWe believe,'' said the Valdez
grand jury last month"; that the can
neries should be required to pay lie
ense fee Of cen cents per case, as these
industries are exhausting one OF the
most valuable resources Of the terri
tory without expanding any money
whatever in the territory.
"The revenue thus derived could be
used in improving highways, constrnc,
ting public buildings, and paying the
expenses of the government. We pc
lieve this is only fair, for the reason
that the salmon industry in Alaska,
while taking out several MILL n dol
lars per annum, gives nothing in re-
turn.

Sramd Imry's Cammery Recommendations

'EThe cannery employees are shipped
in at the opening Of the season, in yes
sells owned by the companies, and at
the close of the season are shipped
out along with the product OF their
labor
"The companies bring in commits
saries for the substance of such en-
ployes while at work, as well as supply
ing them with clothing and other ar
ticles of necessity or luxury. They are
no possible benefit to the territory and
the above mentioned sum, ten cents,

basis-in Los Angeles, at least-for existence.
 Too late, evidently. Mir. Earl has found that it is one thing to set fire to the grass on a prairie and quite another thing to control the fire at will.
 One of the results of this socialist victory will be to shake the confi- dence of investors in the marvellous city whose growth has astonished the world.
 In Arizona, the socialists will doubtless be encouraged by this vic tory to stay within their own party and to vote their own ticket
 But unfortunately for Arizona. Can didate Hunt, Candidate Ashurst. and other politicians in control of the democratic party are deemed social ists by the outside public. We peo- pie at home know that these poli- ticians are merely time servers, but their election would be as disastrous for Arizona as if the real socialists had won.

; ence fully understood the trend of MT. Sturges' remarks, and that it was in hearty sympathy with his ideas. This was the first time that Hoval A. Smith has been heard in Phoenix on the issues of the campaign. He de- clared in favor of a presidential pri. mary and said that while he believes in scientific downward revision of the tariff, he proposes also to see to it that the right of the wool growers and of the cattle raisers are protected. He said it would be his aim to get a po- sition on the agricultural and the min- ing committees if elected. believing that on those committees he could do more for the people of this state than on any others.
 The climax of the meeting came with the speech of John $. Williams, candidate for congress on the repubi- can ticket. Down in Cochise they call me Jack" MT. Williams said, "and I can modestly assert that you can go down there and ask anybody about Jack Williams record and I will not be afraid of what anybody tells you"
 Williams speech ranged from the subtlest style of wit to some of the most engaging oratOry that has been heard in Phoenix for many a day. He is easily the most accomplished pub lie speaker on either ticket.
 "If you feel like voting for Carl Hay den," Mir. Williams said. magnani- mously, "I haven't a word to say against it. MT. Hayden is a good fel- low, and a good citizen. He is capable of filling this office. He is a good mana mighty good man-but there is one thing want you to remember am a better one"
 Hits of that sort convulsed the audi ence with laughter.
 Let's do the best thing in this mat ter" Mir. Williams urged. Lets select the best men for these offices. Let's start the state right. Some people have talked about extending the time of payment of the assessments on the Roosevelt reservoir. Some have gone so far as to say the people of the United States should assume that debt But I want to say this-if l know the people of this valley. they will never stand for repudiation-
 Now. I have not the wisdom to say exactly what should be done in this matter. But let me tell you some thing. If I am elected I am going to come back here. and I am going to call you people together. When l have done that We will take counsel. I shall expect you to tell me what you want done. and when you have told me that there will he no man in Washington who will work harder to carry out the demand of his constitu- ents than I will"
 There were some splendid passages in Mir. Williams speech, which was properlv an oration. He paid a trib ute to the flag and to the people of the new state that would have done credit to any speaker anywhere And then. with his peroration, the meeting came to an end.

They Understand Mir. Hunt

"The Copper Queen Supports Hunt" is a headline which is ap- bearing in Arizona papers over a news item from Bisbee.
 Of course. No we'll informed citi- zen of Arizona expected that the great Copper Queen corporation would oppose MT. Hunt. On the contrary, every well informed citi- zen fully expected that the Copper Queen would support MT. Hunt for governor.
 And, indeed, why should the Cop per Queen or any other great cor poration in Arizona be expected to oppose MT. Hunt?
 The great corporations. through their shrewd representatives, have no trouble in ascertaining what Mir Hunt stands for. They have only to examine the private record of his career in the legislature.
 The private record, be 1t under stood, sometimes differs materially from the official record made by a man in legislation. For instance, when a bill is pending in which great corporations are interested and a member of the legislature says to the corporation lobbyists: T will vote with you on this bill if my vote is absolutely needed; but if I find that my vote is not needed I will vote against you" the explanation is satisfactory
 If an examination of the legislative
Arizona republican., 1911-11-02

journals can be made to reveal that MT. Hunts vote was ever decisive in passing or killing a bill in which corporations were interested, it will then be worth while to discuss the absurd claim that he was a real op- ponent of corporations in the legis- lature.
 As a fake radical MT. Hunt has made somewhat of a success during the past year, but his efforts to pose as corporation batter has not fooled the corporations. The shrewdly managed corpora tions that are interested in legisla- tion and in state policies do not care snap of the finger how much radi- calism a man talks. so long as he proves himself safe" at critical moments.
 In fact, the radical doctrines with which MT Hunt has made his name conspicuous do not worry the great corporations a particle. They have learned by experience that the whole scheme comprised in the radical prin- ciples which MT. Hunt has advocated so loudly is a scheme which can be made to work to the advantage of corporations.
 The public may expect to see MT. Hunt valorously charging up and down the highways and byways of the state in his campaign, shouting his hatred of corporations and shout ing his love for the people, but the charging and the shouting will not alarm the Copper Queen or any other corporation.
 Mir Hunt may continue to fool the credulous socialists, but to date he has created no fright in the offices of the big corporations
 Meanwhile, Judge Wells. who is also a wealthy man like MT. Hunt, declines to be a demagogue He bluntly announces that if elected gov ernor he will execute the laws with out fear or favor. giving every man and every corporation their just due, no more and no less. And no in- telligent resident of Arizona has ever suspected for a moment that Judge Wells could be improperly influenced by any corporation.

 Arizona as will surprise the whole country.
 There were two things that charac- terized Colonel Sturges' speech-his healthy sense of humor and his inti- mate knowledge of the business re- quirements of the territory at large. He said there are a good many people who do not know him, but, he added. there is not a cattle grower in the ter ritory that doesn't know him. That acquaintance grew out of the coloners long service as chairman of the live stock board. And it may be men toned here that in that service he performed a service for the people of

The Socialist Victory in Los Angeles

Although Job Hartman. the social ist candidate for mayor of Los An geles. did not obtain in Tuesdays primary election a majority over both the other candidates and must therefore appear before the voters again in the city election. he had plurality over Mayor Alexander, the good government" candidate, and got more than twice the vote given Mushet, the other candidate. Some of the socialist candidates for the city council got clear majorities. and consequently are already elected.
 The result is therefore properly de- scribed as a socialist victory. The growth of the socialist party in Los Angeles has been astounding. Two years ago it boiled but 1000 votes. On Tuesday it boiled 1S,OOO.
 What will be the effects of this socialist victory? On Tuesday morn ing the Los Angeles Tribune said editorially:
 The whole country is watching the bulletin board of events to see what name Los Angeles shall write across it this day of destiny, and as it writes so shall it be judged. For names today become the symbols of policies, and concern in what we do extends far beyond our boundaries
 Los Angeles may write a name across the board that almost instantly will destroy its credit among all to whom it looks to purchase its secu- rities. Should MT. Hartman be chosen mayor today or at the final election in December, Los Angeles could say with Worsley: Farewell a long farewell, to all my greatness That election would convey a warn ing watching investors the world over would act upon at once. They would not buy bonds issued by a | socialized Los Angeles. and unless Los Angeles is able to market it's bonds it cannot complete the vast
 
 can rise to greatness.
 The development of the harbor is essential to the growth and suprem- acy of this city. The work must be l done at once in preparation for the opening of the Panama canal, for | when new routes of trade are there after established we shall not find it | easy to change them in our interest. | Los Angeles has pledged itself to | spend ten millions on that improve ment. Very recently it offered for | sale small part of the harbor bonds | There was not one bidder No in vestOr wanted to take chances on an | investment that might be impaired | by the specialization of Los Angeles | If no one would bid for the bonds | for fear of Harriman's election, would any investor bid were that election accomplished? Los Angeles would not be able to develop its harbor, and failure to improve the harbor would put an end to all it's dreams of greatness. A vote for Hartman Is vote for the destruction of pros- perity. The issue can be decided to- day. The issue should be decided to- day. Let Los Angeles. in the face of the watching world. erase the in mark of doubt and write in Alexander's name"
 This warning was issued from a newspaper establishment which is more responsible than any other agency in Los Angeles for the growth of socialism in that city The Tribune and the Express, both papers of wide circulation and both owned by MT. E. T. Earl, a mill ionaire demagogue, have sought pop ularity by flaming into flames a spirit of discontent which had no
