In u statement given out Monday
night William L. Marbury said that he
would take pleasure in speaking for
and supporting Senator John Walter
Smith in his candidacy for reelection
and each of the Democratic candi-
dates for Congress. He said that he
regretted that professional engage
ments prevent his devoting much time
to political speaking at this time. Mr..
Marbury said that Senator Smith was
the undoubted choice Of the Demo
Gratis in fair and square primary
and that there IL no reason why he or
any other Democrat should fail to
give him support. He said the same
thing is true of each of the other
Democratic candidates. Mr.. Marbury
was a candidate for the nomination
for XIII. :. Senator in opposition tc
Senator Smith but withdrew before
the primary was held

arlington Gets Worst of Argument

Edward XII Darlington, Jr., recently
received a reply to a telegram sent
by him few days previous to Secre-
tary of the Treasury McAdoo, in which
the latter denies that the First Nation
al Bank Of Snow Hill, of which Sena-
tor John Walter Smith il president,
was left out OF the institutions accused
of boarding funds for any political
reason.
In the telegram sent to Secretary
McAdoo Mr.. Darlington called atten-
ton to the fact that the percentage
of reserve. held by Senator Smiths
bank was far greater than the per-
centage carried by the Farmers "a
tional Bank, Of Annapolis, which was
the only Maryland institution menA
toned i'll Secretary McAdoo's list
Y The list" says Secretary McAdoo,
! in his reply, was not prepared with
regard to its possible political effect
/ AS a matter of fact, l had no knowl-
edge at that time that Senator Smith
was president of bank, nor have
any idea that the bookkeeper who pre-
VI pared the lit had knowledge of that
fact"
Mr.. McAdoo then goes on to say
that the names of the banks particu-
llarized as boarding funds were picked
out at random from large list carry
ing excess reserves. a few were taken
from each State, in each instance the
names of the larger banks being
taken. no this he adds:
Farmers National Bank was taker
rather than the Snow Hill bank as its
deposits were more than twice as
great as those of the bank at Snow
Hill, but your attention is called t.
the fact that the actual reserve locked
I'D in the vaults OF the Annapolis
bank wa more than three times "a!
large as the reserve held in vault b!
the Snow Hill bank, and the percent
age Of reserve in vaults Of the Annap
oils bank was 40 per cent more thai
the percentage Of reserve carried il

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP.

We invite the attention of the Re
publican Congressman who have been
blocking the Administrations vigor-
Gus efforts to befriend commerce and
industry in the European war crisis
to the following paragraph in the
Boston Advertiser, a Republican pa
per:
I'VE regret that We have heard
hints from Washington, in the past
few days, to the effect that some
ambitious but not unusually gifted
Republican Congressman have made
their plans to fight the administra-
ton bill, and to expose some of its
glazing blunders.' Our friendly adj
vice to such marplots would be to
consult their own constituents first
W. believe that the popular demand
for an immediate outlet and avenue
to new markets for American goods,
and for new routes of supply to this
country, in such products as the
United States now lacks, because of
the war Of the nations, is practically
irresistible Any Congressman who
for purely partisan reasons attempts
to block the plans Of the administra-
ton, will probably emerge from his
popular chastisement wiser if sad
der man"

Talk of NeD County North

It is rumored that an effort is soon to be made to create new county out of the north part of Coconino and Mohave counties. with Fredonia or some more con- trally located place as the county seat. Northern Arizona is grow ing some and as soon as it IS cap able of self government by req son of property interests suffi- cient for self support, we surely believe it would be entitled to the honors of a new county. Year by year the people of the north part of the two counties have been spreading out until to day there is a wide area of coun- try being brought under cultiva- ton. The timber and mining interests of that section will soon make it one of the most populous parts of the state. = Kingman Miner.
