NEW JERSEY FIGHT
ON IN FULL SWING
CONTINUED From Page l.,

with full sense of the responsibilities
you have imposed upon me. and my
record all the state knows. Nothing
I could say upon the public platform
could alter it, either for better or
me to commend 1t to you or to seek to
give it color by my own exposition Of
Gov. Wilson then takes up state af-
fairs. He reminds voters of his fight
against former United States Senator
James Smith, Jr., and tells them that
he opposed the reelection of Senator
Smith and favored James E. MARITIME.
the incumbent Of the office, because the
people OF the state had expressed their
preference for Mr.. MARITIME at the prim-
aries. He reviews recent state political
history and continues:
AssaiIs Senator Smith.
'This is the whole ground of my Of
Tending. I insisted that the party
should keep faith with the people in
the matter of the senatorship as in all
others. Senator Smith wanted it's
obligation ignored in order that he
might be returned to the senate. He
seeks revenge, as do these guardians"
and all others. who have been deprived
of their private control. But their
purpose is to regain their power and
rule again as they please.
What is happening within the re-
publican party is obvious to the whole
country and very unedifying specta-
Gle It is. But what Is happening in
this state within the democratic party
is not so obvious, it is, indeed. being
done very quietly and very secretly be-
cause it is being done by James Smith,
Jr., who knows no other way of act
ing in politics and who has no sug-
gestion to make to the voters of the
state which he can quite venture to
make in public.
What concerns us and makes the
matter very much larger and more
serious than the more incidental ques-
ton of whether am to be nominated
at Baltimore or not, is the fact that
this Is Mr.. Smiths attempt to re-es-
tablish his control over the democratic
party and put himself once more in
position to make the democratic ma
chine an adjunct and partner of the
old republican machine in serving the
special interests in New Jersey. It is
the last desperate attempt of the dis
credited old regime to destroy and
supplant the new.

CLIFTON AUTO PARTY MAKES RUN n
 DOUGLAS
Dr. L. A w 8urth and Party Of Ladies Travel over BorderIand
 Route to Visit Shelter City

Dr. l.. A. w. Burtch, president of the Clifton Chamber of Commerce, accompanied by Mrs. Burtch Mrs Coty, and Mrs. Gay, returned Thurs day from a four days trip to Douglas, via Hachita. The automobile party left Clifton Thursday morning On the way to Douglas the party visited
 the Hachita ranch, of which MT. Jos. Terrel, formerly of this county, is in charge.
 Upon his return Dr. Burtch stated th.-t he found the road to be in good
 condition all the way after he struck
 the Borderland route at Rodeo Be-
 tween Hachita and Rodeo he found some bad road. The doctor compli- mented the citizens of Douglas on the excellent work done recently on log rolling day" and commended this pub lie spirit and the practicability of such effort, which if adopted by all the state would soon end all complaint ot bad roads, no matter what route one desired to travel
 During his stay in Douglas, the h. ternational quotes Dr. Burtch as fol- lows:
 'Dr. Burtch stated that Clifton was making excellent progress now and many important improvements are under way The most important of these, of course, is the building of the new SD citing plant by the Arizona Copper company, and which is now under construction: the new county court house is nearing completion and will be one of the handsomest build ings of it's kind to be found in the state. Besides the new court house there are three new public school buildings going up this year in the distrct.
 All the old companies are producing copper at about the same rate as dur ing the past year, with the Shannon showing a considerable increase of it's product. There is not much develop ment work going on now in the dis trict, though should copper remain stable at the present price it will not be long until many of the known good copper properties in the district will be started up again.
 Dr. Burtch and party drove over Douglas this morning and took a look at this city and were surprised to see so many new residences completed re gently. They left at noon expecting to travel the borderland route to this afternoon and return horne from there tomorrow D
