The Only Means Of Relief

Those citizens of Arizona, of whatever parties
they may be members. who are dissatisfied with
the conduct of the state government should come
TO the support of the progressive candidates next
November They will find these candidates pledged
to economy and obedience to the laws they stand
pledged against the waste of the public money;
against the support Of a party machine at the
public expense. They will come to the support of
men who under obligations to mo clique or
faction. but only to the people
If the voters of Arizona want a change of the
state government, they can obtain it only by the
election of the progressive candidates There is no
other avenue of escape from existing conditions
That must be patent to the blindest voter
There is absolutely hope in the republican
party. whoever its nominees may be. for they will
be the nominees of party wholly discredted two
years ago and which has not rehabitated itself
under management. The same forces are in
control that lied through slaughterhouse to an
open grave in 1912
We do know who the republican candidates
will be. Mr. H. A. Morgan of Wilcox, under
stand. is being given consideration nominee for
governor Morgan is a man who would appeal
strongly to those who know him intimately. He has
never been closely identified with partisan politics.
We believe, but he could not survive the fatal handi
cap of the republican management which would have
charge of his campaign.
The progressive ticket will be the only open door
of relief and we believe that majority of the
voters will pass through it.. If the ticket should
be defeated, the only possible conclusion must be
that majority of the voters satisfied with
things they are, and do not want change; that
they cheerful taxpayers who have more money
than they want and prefer that it should be publicly
wasted.

Some Political History

We think it well to present to the voters of Arr
zona in succinct and collective FORM certain facts
that have been made known them in detached
and ,fragmentary form from time to time. Quite
early in the year gentlemen in different
political parties, democrat, progressive and repub
ican. in various parts of the state, began consider
ing of organization to prevent continuance
of the present state government. The republican
leaders suggested fusion Of the progressives and
the republicans That they believed. with the great
number of dissatisfied democrats who would support
fusion ticket would accomplish the end sought.
Such a fusion course impossible. 1t could
no. be accomplished without compromise of prin-
ciples and a party which abandoned or compromised
principles could not honestly go before the people
But the progressives suggested something better
from both moral and tactical points of view. They
proposed bipartisan movement in which demo-
Gratis progressives and republicans should take equal
parts. Party principles should not be compromised

to secure q better state government. No political
party was to take any advantage from the success
of such movement.
Many democrats favored such plan but the
republican leaders would not consent to it. They
argued that a bipartisan movement this gear
would their party without standing or organ'-
cation two years hence. The progressive party of
course would be left in. precisely the same cond.-
lion but it was willing to undertake the embarrass-
ment for the good of the state.
The progressive leaders took the view that
majority Of the people were not concerned with
the being of political party, and particu-
lary with that of either of the old parties. whose
wel-being not that of its members at large. but
of its self seeking and largely sef-constituted
leaders But the non partisan plan failed in order
that the republican party might keep it's standing
rather that the control of it by its present manage

1t then devolved upon the progressive party to
decide upon ticket and to call upon all voters Of
all parties. who have greater interest in the we'll
