Hunt Thanks People.
To the People of Arizona:

AS the partial returns received from
the primary election of yesterday evil
IDENTIFY show my denomination for the
governorship to be certainty, it be-
comes at once not only permissible but
also my pleasurable duty to express to
the citizens of this State my heartfelt
appreciation of the confidence and sup
port extended me at the polls by the
electorate.
Whatever may have been my sense
of achievement on the occasion of my
first gubernatorial nomination, it is
UNNECESSARILY exceeded by the graft
tude and citation that l experience on
receiving from the people of my State
such wholehearted endorsement of
my work as public servant. A COM
mendation for services performed is
the highest tribute which any human
being may hope to gain, and when such
tribute is conferred by the electorate
of great and growing State like Ari-
IONA, ones power of expression must
necessarily prove inadequate to the
giving Of thanks.
May it therefore suffice for me to
assure the many people, who have so
warmly befriended and supported me
in the Democratic primary contest,
that the greatest hour of my life was
the one in which my denomination be-
came affirmed, and that my every en-
deavor, "all that am or ever hope to
be-" is due as righteous debt of
gratitude to the thousands of Arizona
citizens who have conferred upon me
one of the highest honors within their
gift.
Gratefully and sincerely,
GEO. w. P. HUNT.

The. Election

Arizona Tuesday last passed through
one of the most peculiar primary cleo
tons ever held in any state. Under
the law only party voters are supposed
to vote for candidates on the various
tickets, but in this instance the re-
publicans, socialists and progressives
voted the democratic ticket. At least
it would look that way from the re-
turns so far counted. 1t is estimated
that about fifty per cent of the regis
tered vote was polled. Of this vote
ninety per cent was cast for the demo-
cratic ticket, the other ten per cent
being divided among the socialists, re-
publicans and progressives. This is
the case in Mohave county, and it
would appear to be the case in all the
other counties of the state.
While Hughes was the dry candidate
for governor Hunt defeated him in
practically allth dry precincts. Mark
Smith shows about five thousand ma
iority over Ling, beating him in every
county of the state. All the old Of
fcers running for place have been re-
nominated. The ticket that will be
presented to the democrats for their
ratification next November for congress
sional and state officers is as follows:
For United States Senate: Mark, A.
Smith.
For Congress-: Carl Hayden
For Governor: G.. w. P Hunt.
Supreme Court: Alfred Franklin, D.
l.. Cunningham, H. d. Ross.
Secretary of State: Sidney P. Os-
born.
State Auditor: J. c. Callaghan.
State Treasurer: Mitt Sims.
Attorney General: Wiley Jones.
Superintendent Public Instruction
G. 0. Case.
Corporation Commission: w. P.
Geary, A. w. Cole, F. A.. Jones',
State Mine Inspector: G. H. Bolin.
State Tax Commission: P. j. Miller,
G. M. lander.
In Mohave county only small re-
publican, socialist and progressive vote
was polled, some precincts showing
none at all, although there are known
to be many men identified with these
parties in the various precincts.
So far as heard from the following
candidates on the democratic ticket ap-
pear to have the nominations:
Superior Judge, John A. Ellis.
Clerk Superior Court, Lon M. Teale.
Sheriff, j. c. Lane.
Supervisors, O. E. Walker, l. M.
George, w. B. Stephens.
Recorder, j. w. Morgan.
Assessor, F. L.. Hunt.
Treasurer, Tom Devine.
County Attorney, c. w. Herndon.
State Senator, Henry Lovin.
Representative, w. P. Mahoney is
about 20 votes in the lead with several
small precincts to hear from.
Supt. Schools, Mrs. l.. J. Lassell.
For Constable of Kingman precinct
George Vollmer and Robert Roe were
rival candidates, Vollmer winning by a
large margin.
Some of the defeated candidates
made phenomenal runs, it being conced-
ed that they had no chance at the open
ing of the campaign, but so we'll did
they campaign that they came close to
defeating some of the strongest men
on the ticket. All the candidates were
excellent men, which caused the voters
to pause and take stock of the whole
presentment of candidates.

A>bill has been introduced, in congress
by one of the western senators pro-
viding for the relief of mine owners in
all the mining states and obviating the
annual assessment work on mining
claims. 1t it held that many mine
owners are unable to do the work and
that some relief should be granted by
the government. 1t is thought that the
bill will become law. The government
will not lose by the transaction. Owing
to the low ebb in many of the metals,
especially silver, copper and lead mine
owners cannot make an output. while
all through the country mine owners
are unable to do their work without
great personal sacrifice, Few corpora
tons own unpatented claims. therefore
only small amount Of work would
come to idle miners from the mine
owners, most Of the work being per-
sonally by them.
Senator Ashurst has introduced a bill
in congress providing for the purchase
by the general government of Is, 900, 900
pounds of copper, while another bill for
the purchase of a large amount Of sill
yer has already become law. Senator
Ashurst believes that the copper miners
should have some protection as well as
other industries during the times of de-
preston coused by the European war

KEEP UNSCRUPULOUS MEN OFF
THE SCHOOL BOARD.

The letter from "Tax Payer"
appearing in Fridays edition of the
Daily Tribune, contained some very
pointed questions, and if same cannot
be answered satisfactorily it would
seem that the author has started
something that everyone interested
in the best management of our schools
should pay heed to. The matters
mentioned are certainly Of sufficient
Importance to merit investigation
Considerable further interest in the
matter is manifested in correspon-
dencc from "Citizen" to be found in
another column Of this issue.
From complaints SO commonly being
expressed, it is hard for one to be-
lieve that Irregularities do not iexst,
If it is true that a certain ring or
class, unfavorably known to the popu-
lace generally of this city, are direct
ing the movements and champion
ing the cause of the members whose
actions are questioned, it is time for
the good people to get busy and stay
busy until, reputable and trustworthy
men are elected to fill these responsible
positions.

.DRURY CASE GOES
UP in THIN AIR
Judge Willer Grows Tired of
Frivolous Attempts on Part
of Prosecution
FLENTGE DISCHARGED
Defendant Fully Exonerated With
out Offering Testimonyin His
Own Behalf

The Big Burlesque in which Mrs.
Ola Drury made such a pronounced
hit as a comedian, and in which it
was attempted to show A. j. Flcntge
as the william, in spite of what APP
rehearsals given an understudy by
the name Of Raymond Koch, and the
promptings of the heavy man, o.
J. Drury, husband of the pretended
injured one, had the curtain drawn
at the command of Judge Willer,
when the first act was finished.
The show referred to was the case
of the State of Missouri VS.. A. J.
Flcntge, who was arrested on a
criminal charge at the complaint
of Ola Drury. The case was taken
up in Judge Willer's court Wednes-
day afternoon, and not being finished
on that date was continued to Thurs.
day afternoon, when the Judge realiz-
ing the fimsiness of the proof offered
and the general instability OF the
case, dismissed the same at the cost
of plaintiff.
From the evidence offered, it was
made palpably plain that the defen'
dant was the victim of malicious
persecution, and at no time was any
testimony offered that would b'
acceptable as convincing or would
even tend to incriminate the defend
ant in the mind of an unprecedented
listener. The testimony of the vari
Gus states witnesses was confusing
and contradictory, and it was thu
general consensus of those prescn
that the statements of the prescott
ing witness coupled with her demeano
on the stand would amply iustif!
the Court in verdict of acquitta
for the defendant.

SCHULTZ CRITI-
CISED BY CITIZEN
Writes Letter Detailing Alleged
Failure to Perform Duties Ac-
cording to Requirements
QUESTIONED CITED
Demands Explanation OF Methods
Claimed Employed in Use of
School Money
EDITOR TRIBUNE

Ell loh hlDu NE.
noticed in your valuable paper
yesterday an article signed Tax
Payer" in which he referred to the
very ugly attacks made upon Mr..
Andrews and DR.. Nettles by the Daily
Republican, because the school board
in the fall of 1912 had 10 borrow
money to pay the salaries of the
teachers. The writer of the article
yesterday did not go into details and
state why the board in 1912 had to
borrow money, and for the benefit
of your readers and the public in
general | would like to make few
statements.
You will remember that at the
general election in the spring of 1911
a proposition to issue $4,000 bonds
to buy q school site and erect build
ing in the north part of the city
was voted down, and also at a
special election the same proposition
was defeated. But the board, at
that time lead by Dr.. Schulz, in
order to put one over" the tax
payers, purchased site for $4,000
giving note therefor dated some
time in May 1911, made payable
to one Mrs. Arnold of st. Louis
IA sister OF DR.. Schulz, which note
was paid in January 1912 out of
funds levied for the year 1912. Bear
in mind that the debt was contracted
in one year to be paid out of proceeds
from taxes of the following year, a
transaction directly in conflict with
Sec, IL, Art Y of the Constitution
Of the State of Missouri. Also if it
was fact that DR.. Schulz gave his
personal check to the Treasurer of
the board for this 81, 500 would any
one be green enough to suppose that
it was his own moeny and not the
funds of his sister, Mrs. Arnold.
Also the board in 1912 had to
expend about $1,000 for the paving
on Independence street along the
Lorimier school property. IN
This much in the defense of Mr.,
! Andrews and DIR. Nettles for their
action in borrowing money in 1912.
What excuse can DR.. Schulz offer
for his similar action in 1918. 1t
seems the Daily Republican would
like to make it appear that DR..
Schulz and Mr.. Thilenius are such
fine manipulators of public funds,
they can virtually get along without tax
levy. But does their proposition to
increase the annual rate for school
purposes notice of which is found
in your. paper, look that way, .,,l

SHORB WINS SUIT
AGAINST MORRISON
Gets Judgment For Tax Bill
Amounting to About $50 and
Interest
NEW TRIAL ASKED FOR
Plaintiff Claims That But For the
Actions ofthe Daily Republican,
Suit Not Necessary

In the case Of T. ]. Shorb VS.
Lawrence Morrison, judgment was
rendered in the Common Pleas Court
Friday in favor of the plaintiff.
MIR. Shorb was the contractor who
did the paving and improvement work
on Spanish street, and Mr.. Morrison
was a property owner along said
street. Suit was originally brought
in the Circuit Court at Jacksn,
for the collection of the tax bill,
amounting to about $50. The plain
tiff = was represented by attorneys
Orran Wilson and Edward Drum,
and the defendants attorneys were
Judge Edward d. Hays and Senator
Lane. The defendant desiring a
change Of venue, it was agreed be-
tween the respective counsel that the
case should be brought to the Com
mon Pleas Court in this city, pre-
sided over by Judge r. G. Ranney,
the defendant agreeing to pay the
SlU uOCheI Zee
Judgment was given for the amount
Of the claim with interest at the rate
of eight per cent. aggregating an
amount Of more than 500.
A motion for new trial was filed,
and the case will be continued until
the May term at which time argu-
ments will be heard on the motion.
Mr.. Shorb in discussing the matter
says: he never would have had any
trouble or lawsuit if the Republican
had told the truth and the facts
about the street and if they continue
he will make them show their hand.
He has notified them that he will
rap on them if they do not desist.

.FLENTGE is NOT GUILTY
Honest Judge Willer Observes In

Without Hearing Defense

Rocking in filth, begrimed and be-
slimed with the periured slobberings
of a prenatal fzzlc, the Daily
Republican of Thursdays issue served
as a wrapper for "A package of cor
ruption so foul and putrid that even
the carrier boys were forced to hold
their noses when making deliveries.
The package referred to was the re-
port of the preliminary hearing of
A. J. Flentge, and as a conglomera-
ton of demonstrations, defamatory,
vicious, evil and underhanded de-
signs, it rests in a class of its own and
is emblematic of the journalistic
qualities possessed by its editorial
department.
The article was rendered worth.
less as an item of news when truths
we're withheld that strength might
be given to the poison utterances
of designing witness.
Reputable men were assailed in q
manner calculated to destroy char.
acter and sink them to the same
level with the author of the article
Nothing was overlooked in the
wording that would tend to preju
dice an unsuspecting reader against
the defendant and his attorney, anC
when at last he was forced to account
the discharge of the accused mar
without the necessity of his offer
ing any testimony, whatever, the au
thor apparently intended as part
ing shot of a poor loser, to cast {
reflection on the honesty of the cour
before whom the case was tried.
The fact remains however, tina
Judge Willer is man of unquestionet
integrity, able and fair in his decis
ions; and his verdict of acquitta
when the state had rested its case
was sufficient assurance to the fai
minded people that A. j. Flentg
was innocent of the crime he wa
charged with.
The verdict as given, meeting wit
the approval Of that class of peopl
who stand for justice, should serv
as rebuke to the scurrilous shee
that permitted it's columns to b
used for such an Infamous purpose

SEARCH MADE FOR
WHITE SLAVERS
Old Man From Bollinger Co. Dis
covers Trace of Daughter Who
Was Lured From Home
NAMES ARE ON REGISTER
Joined By Male Companion at
Cape, WhOLeft With them When
They Went to st. Louis

Friday night an old gentleman
called on Mr.. LESSEN, manager of
the Riverview Hotel, and expressed
a desire to look over the register that
was in use in the hotel in November,
1913. He stated that at about that
time his daughter, a young girl,
had been lured away from her home
in Lutesville, by an older woman, who
who had enticed her to leave for
the purpose of engaging in immoral
practices. He stated that the girl
and the alleged procurress had re-
turned since, and when taken before
the Bollinger County grand jury,
the girl testified that she and the
older woman had gone to the Cape
where they registered at the River
view as Helen Smith and Marie
Smith, and were accompanied by a
man by the name of Powers. She
stated that Powers did not register
at the Riverview but procured a room
at another hotel where he took them
later, passing himself as the husband
of Marie Smith, the daughter of
the gentleman who is now search
ing the registers. 1t was also stated
that he discovered that on the goth
of October preceding, the same man
and older woman had registered at
the Riverview as Mr.. and Mrs. John
Myers. The old gentleman is inves-
tigating the registers at the hotels
with the hope of verifying the state
ments made by his daughter before
the grand jury. He further stated
that his daughter had testified that
she and the two alleged white slavers
went from the Cape to St. Louis, all
of which was denied by the older won
an when she was called on to make
a statement.
