CHANDLER FLOODED
WITH CANDIDATES

1t rained in Chandler Friday night
after pouring flood of political can
didates, the heavens opened and a flood
of water washed up the dust but failed
to check the oratorical flow that con-
tinued unabashed for three hours.
At least fifty candidates for the var
ious offices in MaricOpa county visited
Chandler. The bulk of them were
democrats-and not progressive, re-
publican or socialist reared his head
above the crowd, for it was a rousing
democratic rally on the lawn of the
oan Marcos hotel
Arthur E. Price of Chandler acted as
chairman of the meeting, and in a hap
Ply vein he introduced seven aSpirants
for the office of board of supervisors,
three who want to be sheriff, eleven
who prayed to sit in the legislature, a
half dozen for the job of senator, four
who seek to be judge of the superior
court, and others for county attorney,
treasurer, and the other offices to be
let.
AS the evening advanced the Oratory
grew more fierce The best speeches
were made by the candidates for judge,
while the most witty was delivered by
Mr.. Irvine, candidate for the lower
house

that there is quite a large acreage in
this section that is not signed to the
association. A telegram was received
from G. H. McFadden Bros. of Provi-
dence. R. l., asking for two hundred
bales. of this seasons crop, and prom
Using an advance of fifteen cents per
pound, which was accepted and Tempe
will furnish one hundred bales and
Mesa the balance. Mr.. Dorman's re-
port and the final settlement on last

SENATOR SMITH IN MESA

Senator Marcus A. Smith addressed
nice audience at Mesa Saturday
night. 1t was expected that he would
make his speech from rostrum in the
Chandler court, but owing to the in
clement weather, the opera house was
used and in spite of the weather, there
was quite a gathering of his friends.
Many other state and county candi-
dates were present, and on that account
the senator did not make long talk
but devoted his remarks to his recent
labors in the senate in behalf of the
extension bill for the benefit of the
Salt River project The other candi-
dates present were allotted only three
minutes to tell their story, which they
did as best they could in that short
time.

prepared his final report of his trip,
he only made an informal talk to the
members. A motion was carried to gin

first, as they were the ones who had
borne the cost of the gin, and if there
was time enough left. the cotton Of the
outsiders would be handled. This 1t
