PIONEER WOMAN'S EARNEST APPEAL

the joint suffering and the privatioas of the pioneer men and women in thus achieving and establishing the ciyiliz- ing conditions for which Arizona has been struggling for more than thirty five years we would have been a SOW erign state today
 What hope would there have been for Arizona's admission to statehood had there been no conquest of the Apaches, no mining. stock or farm in- dustries No schools, churches, 10 social conditions, no community life?
 do not believe there is a fair-mind- ed man, especially of our pioneers, Of Arizona during the last forty years did equally as much as the men in the building of the state of Arizona. In fact, this great task could not have been accomplished without the assist ance of these heroines.
 These are some of the reasons which must appeal to all Arizonans and are submitted to every voter for their just and conscientious consider ation before casting their vote next Tuesday.
 If there was but one pioneer moth CT of Arizona who asked this right to participate in the government of the state she so Loyalty with others strag- gled to build. it should be granted; but there are hundreds of these pio- neeT mothers and thousands Of other loyal. patriotic, liberty-loving women who, during later years, aided in the noble work of state building who are
 
 citizen to vote yes" next Tuesday for the enfranchisement of Arizona's womanbood
 For more than thiTty-fiye years a loyal band of AriZona's women have been appealing for equality before the law and it is with a heart full of gratitude that I rejoice over the fact that all of Arizona's political parties have in their platform of principles, endorsed woman's suffrage May the eloquent expression of the high char acter Of Arizona's manhood be unani. mously endorsed at the polls next Tuesday. No greater compliment can be expressed by the chivaIry of Ari- zona.
 Can there be a more striking illus tration of Arizona's progressive spirit than the infant state of the union of less than a year has by their vote clothed the womanhood of the young state with equal rights before the law?
 This appeal of an Arizona pioneer woman Is made to every voter with the hope and belief tha; all who read will vote ''yes" on the constitutional amendment giving woman equal saf. frage in Arizona

Bisbee daily review., 1912-11-05

The following was published in inc Tucson Star of Friday morning and friend of the Review has requested that it be reproduced in these col umns. Mrs. Hughes was teacher of the first school, attended by white children, in Arizona, excepting me school facilities provided by the Can olic sister in Tucson. She is the wife of Ex-Governor L. c. Hughes, or Tue son.
 Arizona's state election will be held Tuesday, November ,. There are several constitutional amendments to be voted on, the most important ot any or all of them is: Shall Arizona s women be allowed equal rights to vote as men2
 This is the issue the men citizens Of the state of Arizona will determine by their votes November 5th. You will observe the women who seek this right have no voice in deciding this question. This issue is for the men to decide while we women look on pray ing and appealing for our political freedom.
 Now, what are you men going to do about it?
 As a pioneer woman of forty years residence believe that every pioneer who has considered this question will vote yes" Why? Because they know and appreciate what the pio- neer women did in aiding Jhe build- ing of the state of Arizona; because they know that Arizona's pioneer wom- en stood side by side with them in fighting the bloodthirsty Apache In dians, defending their homes, their farms, their mines, scores of them falling victims Of the sayagss.
 They know these pioneer women took leading part in establishing our schools, taught and trained their chil- dren.
 They know these women promoted, builded and have for these many years, given the principal financial support to the scores of churches in the state.
 They know these women established social conditions in every settlement, inaugurated and managed every move ment which had for its purpose the betterment of community life.
 Does any one believe that without the joint labors, the joint struggles, Saturday Cananea and Douglas nights. Bisbee nights are the first two of the bazaar.

liberal Education.

Sir Horace Plunkett. chum of Col onel Roosevelt, once delivered a lec- ture in Dublin, Ireland. on the best way to improve conditions among the poor. At that time Sir Horace was not exactly 6 finished speaker. His tongue could not do justice to the riches of his mind. The day follow ing his address he received from a lady note containing this statement: What you need is two things: First, wife, and, second, lessons in elocu- tion." To this Plunkett sent this re- ply: 'I have received your letter say ing that I need two things: First. a wife, and, second. lessons In elocu- ton. Those are only one."--Popular Magazine.

FINALLY. The people of this State established a cor poration commission to take care of just such questions as thee. (See Chap. 90, Laws of the First Session of the. Legislature of the State of Arizona). Here the railroads and the people might be heard and equal justice done. Why not let this body attend to these matters? Why en- act laws that are not needed?

WE'RE FROM NEWBERRY.
The Mother Of the Gibson Children
Was Miss Caldwell, of NeWberry
County.

From a private letter we learn that
the mother of the four GibGon chill
dren, of Spartanburg county, VINO re-
Gently met such sad fate, was former
ly Miss Annie Caldwell, daughter OF
Mr.. John Caldwell, the "great lawyer
of Newberry" as he is called in the
Annals Of Newberry, whose home was
the residence now occupied by Mr..
z. F. Wright and his mother, Mrs.
Mary Wright.
It will be remembered that during
the absence of Mr. Gibson, who went
to Greenville on account of the death
of a relative, leaving the children
alone, the house caught fire in some
way-it is thought, possibly by a coal
falling from crate, and about l
o'clock a. m. the fire was discovered
by neighbcrs out when they reached
the scene it was too late to save the
children.
Mrs. Gibson died some years ago
leaving eight children and these were
the four youngest.
This will be read with sorrow by
those cf the older readers of The Her
aid and News who remember the Cald-
we'll family.

The main point now is for these far
mers to abide by the pledge which
they have made and put something on
the land which they have taken out OF
cotton. If this is done whether the

be in a much better condition at the

REDUCE ACREAGE, FERTILIZER
Nine Hundred and Twenty Eight Far
mers Sign Pledge-Wili Reduce
Acreage and Fertilizer.

The committee in charge of secur-
ing pledges from the farmers of this
county under the Rock Hill plan,
have completed their work and the
list has been turned over to the news
papers for publication. it is impossl-
BILE to print it in this issue, but it
will be printed in Fridays paper.
Some interesting facts, however, may
be cleaned from the report. Nine hum
dred and twenty eight farmers have
signed the pledge. They are divided
as follows:
No. 1 Township-72.
No. 2 and Townships-92.
No. Townships.

No. 6 Township-61.
No. Z Township-92.
No. 8 Townshiip-99.
No. 9 Township-84.
No. 10 Township-126.
No. II Tcwnship-178.
The following figures have been
cleaned from the rerort as to the
acreage in 1911 and amounts pledged
for 1912. 1t shows that in 1911 these
nine hundred and twenty-eight farm
ers had 44,143 acres in cotton, and
they have agreed to reduce it to 36,-
946, or total reduction for the coun-
ty of 8,797. The information also
shows the fertilizers used in 1911 and
what the farmers agree to use in
1912 from every township except num-
Der seven. From these figures, 1t IS
stated that in 1911 1877 1-2 tons were
used, and it is agreed under the
pledge to use only 1900 tons in 1912,
or a reduction of 2577 1-2 tons.
