comparatively free of water. But the
force of the explosion was so great

been recovered.
Hundreds of persons continued to
surround the village and there is little
work in the district, miners and their

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, Brazil and
Chilli. They will act as the
mediators between the United
States and Mexico in an at.
tempt to settle the war. One
great dificulty to be faced by
the three is the fact that their
governments have not recog-
nized Huerta as president of
Mexico, and thus their dealings
with him must be through other
governments which have recog-
nized him. However, the fact
that they are the most powerful
South American nations is ex-
pected to make Huerta pay
more attention to them than
he would to Europeans.

SCHOOL NOTES

Should our school keep increas- ing in numbers, we will have to enlarge our school building.
 We have fifteen boys and girls who are doing splendid work in high school. We have a large Freshman class of twelve mem- bers.
 The two Svedin girls who did High School work with us last year have received full credit on entering the San Diego School. We felt quite sure they would not have to take the work again as many said they would. The girls are diligent students and are stu dents of whose work we would not be ashamed.

TO THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA

As the partial returns received from the primary election yester- day evidently show my re-nomin- ation for the governorship to be certainty, it becomes at once rot only permissible but also my pleas urable duty to express to the citi- zens of this state my heartfelt ap- preciation of the confidence and support extended me at the polls by the electorate.
 Whatever may have been my sense Of achievement on the occa- sion of my first gubernatorial nom- ination, it is immeasurably exceed ed by the gratitude and elation that I experience on receiving from the people of my state such a wholehearted endorsement. of my work as a public servant. A com memdation for services performed is the highest tribute which any human being may hope to gain, and when such a tribute is con- ferred by the electorate of great and growing state like Arizona, ones power of expression must necessarily prove inadequate to the giving of thanks.
 May it therefore suffice for me to assure to the many people,, who have so warmly befriended me in the democratic primary contest, that the greatest hour of my life was the one in which my re-nom- ination became affirmed, and that my every endeavor, "all that am or ever hope to be-" is due as a righteous debt of gratitude to the thousands of Arizona citizens who have conferred upon me the high est honors within their gift.
 Gratefully and sincerely,
 Geo w. P. Hunt.
