Dignified Campaign Con- ducted in Arizona Has Brought Excellent Re suits to Cause of "Votes for Women"
PLANS FOR
 FAIR WEEK
Decorations on Grand Stand Are of Suffrage Yellow; Prominent Women to De- liver Addresses

T never saw anything like it in my life, the way you Arizonians take it for granted that the suffrage amend ment will carry,' declared Alice Park, who has charge of the publicity work in the campaign.
 The short time I have been here, '' she continued, 'convinces me you ar, right, and will win by the simple dfgnified methods you are using rather than by spectacular features. l have argued suffrage, written it. and compiled and distributed it's lit erature for years, but this is the most extraordinary experience I have ever had There is no opposition.
 Here she said, pointing to several hundred pamphlets that were stacked on her desk at the state headquarters at the Adams, what use have 1 for Objections Answered. in Arizona where everyone I meet is decidedly in favor of votes for women'?"
 The expression votes for women, ' recalled the fact that Mrs. Park originated the title as the name of a club in PalO Alta and it has since been used in various states where campaigns have been conducted. in many of which this noted suffragfst has taken an active part It was she who in California obtained the en- dorsement of equal suffrage from the Federation of Woman's Clubs, the democratic party, the farmers associa- tion and various other organizations, and for many years she served as chairman of the endorsement commit tee of California, chairman of the literature committee of the same state and a member of the national com mitee of literature.
 Mrs. Park plans to centralize the work and toward this end will issue circular letters to county leagues urg- ing them to Keep in constant com- municatfon with the state central com mittee. Ten thousand hat bands and the same number of votes for wom- en" badges and pennants have been ordered for immediate use.
 Window cards are to be widely displayed this week, the most popular one will undoubtedly be the one an nouncing Women Have Full Suffrage in Wyoming, Colorado, Utah. Idaho Washington, California, Australia New Zealand, Norway, Finland, China Isle of Man, Tasmania - Arizona Next"
 With three hundred pounds of suf- frage propa ganda on hand, no addi- tional literature will be secured from the New York, Chicago or Los An geles headquarters until fair week when a large supply of yellow leaflets will be utilized to spread doctrine
 During the fair We will maintain a booth on the grounds, as much for the convenience of the leaders through out the state who will be here at that time as for the publicity it will give the movement. We will have a box and it's decoration will leave no doubt as to whom it belongs We will dis tribute literature and pennants and the color scheme of the grand stand will be the suffrage shade of yellow. It will be a week of fuss and furore' in comparison to the quiet of the early campaign weeks.
 "The situation is similar to that in Idaho during it's struggle for political equality Two sets of lecture dates were filled there, just as Laura Gregg Cannon and Anno Howard Shaw will deliver in Arizona. This state, too, is next door to suffrage states, both places are sparsely settled with no big city vote with which to contend It is an encouraging feature to see how it takes states geographically; if | dangerous it surely would not creep in that natural way, where people know what has happened as they move l from state to state
