ELECTION
.TRICKERY
Especial to The Times.)

CHICAGO, Oct. 18.-The Chi
cago Daily News, omen Of the
great Independent newspapers OF
the country, today exposed the
scheme of republican leaders to
steal the electoral vote of Hin
OILS and other middle western
states through the Importation
and colonization of negroes.
The News, which devotes sever
al Columns to what It inmates Ia
a widespread attempt 10 defeat
the reelection of President Will
son through fraudulent methods,
had assigned a staff of men to
the task of unearthing the repnb-
lican plan to debauch the ballot
in pivotal states.
Far Reaching Plot.
Writing from East st. Louis,
Illinois, julius b. Wood, star
political writer of the News, says
in part:
lone tentacle of what Is de-
nounced as the most widespread
attempt at wholesale vote frauds
was brought to light In this city
today. Sensational developments
in the way of prosecutions of
those responsible for the alleged
attempts to violate the election
law are expected. How Tar up
the track will lead can only be
guessed at now"
Chicago, Danville-the home
of "Uncle Joe" Cannon--Cairo
and East st. Louis are mentioned
by the Daily News as spots under
scrutiny by agents of the federal
department of justice.
Work For Packers.
A favorite method outlined for
running up a large vote in de-
fiance of law, according to the
Daily News, is registry by dunn
mics of names from old polling
lists, despite the fact that the
householders have moved months
ago.
The News points out that of the
$500 negroes in East st. Louis
1000 are reported to have come
up the Mississippi river from the
south during the last four
months. A years residence is
necessary in Illinois to vote le-
gally.
Many of the imported negroes,
it is known, have been given en-
ployment in the big packing
houses of Chicago and East st.
Louis.

CLIMBING

Deposits In Uncle Sans postal
savings banks throughout the
United States are showing a net
increase of a million dollars a
week, according to an official
bulletin received from the post
office department by Postmaster
Calvin w. tSewart.
In September the deposits had
a net gain of $4,900,0O0 in Amer
lea.
This is one of the best indica-
lions possible eto obtain regard
ing the condition of the working
classes" declared Postmaster
Stewart Wednesday.
Because the majority of pa
irons of the postal savings banks
are of the working people. The
continual increase shows that the
people are getting a sufficient
wage today SO that they can set
aside savings each week."
The Tacoma postal savings
bank had a net increase of de-
poslts of $25,076 In September
over August. This city ranks
22nd In total deposits among all
postal savings banks in the coun-
try.

CLUE FOUND T0
 THE SUICIDE
Coroner De Souza Learns
 from Hat Mark Dead
 Man Might Have Been = w. P. Langford, Miner of ;. Silver City, Idaho


 Through the name of his halter Coroner Frank De SOuZa believes that he has discovered the identity of the suicide found by Govt McElhaney at Hieroglyphic Rocks on Sunday. Justice De Souza is of the opinion that the man, who was dead three weeks before his body was found, was w. F. Lang ford, a miner of Silver City, Idaho.
 There were few clues to work on but the hat band contained the name of a Boise, Idaho. firm and De Souza im- mediately wired the chief of police of that place. Yesterday he received the following telegram from Chief Parker Frank De SouZa,
 Coroner.
 We are informed that description fits w. P. Langford, miner, formerly of Silver City, Idaho. Mrs. Forney of Delmar and Mrs. Larsen of Dewey, Idaho, both sisters. Not positive, but best clues.
 "M. $. PARKER, Chief of Police
 On the handle of the. revolver by which the man ended his life were en- graved the initials w. H. L." That the first and last letters are similar marks another feature that lead to the belief that the man was William Lang ford.

four years, and especially during the last year, the spokesmen and news
 papers employed or controlled by cor
 porate wealth have inveighed against
 the growing independence of labor
 the humane management of state in-
 stitutions and the shaping of gov
 ernment in conformity with the needs
 of the proletariat. They have cast
 the die: let the result be what it
 may-the people will determine.
 The civic and political values i'm
 ditately at state reach far beyond
 the present and are fraught with DOT
 tentious possibilities for Arizona's
 citizens or today and for posterity as
 well Whether Arizona. loyal to her constitution, shall continue steadfast1y
 on her course of adherence to pro
 gressive ideals, of constructive, rep reSentative government and of abso- lute freedom from corporate tyranny, or whether, following the painful pre- cedents of many another state, she shall come under the yoke of dollar despotism, bend the knee to special privilege, and trail the glorious gar | 1.-the mire of ruthless capitalistic ex- ploitation is the issue, clearly defined, on the eve of the 1916 campaign. More concisely expressed, the question | is shall the people of Arizona con-
 tinue to govern themselves, or shall they supinely surrender their natural heritage of self government to those same powerful corporations. which Ialready have acquired extensive con- 1 trol of the public press, and which are intent upon the adoption of such laws as would constitute an evasion 1 of their own just taxes at the eX- pense of the farmers, the proprietors of small businesses and the home loving workers of the state. Surely no such unjust concession as com parative exemption from taxation is necessary or permissible a san in- [, ducement to the investment of capital in Arizona's natural resources; nor
 can any individual holding a brief Il for capital. successfully deny that II Arizona, under existing laws. is en- Il toying the fullest measure of pros perity. Honest capital. under the di- rection of broad-minded people, alert
 to the duties of American citizenship, will never be deterred by fair tax ation from entering any promising field on earth, and with equal truth ] it may be said that dishonest. oppres-
 sive capital is a detriment and a pub
 lic scourge. wherever it may be.

WOMAN AT BOTTOM
 0F I" HERNANDEZ
Mexican Charged With Inciting Riots Among GiIa Bend Section Gangs
 Claims He Is Being RaiIroaded

That he had been railroaded to jail because of a woman's preference for him was the story told by Josefino Hernandez yesterday when he discuss cd his affairs in his cell in the county jail.
 With Joe Bush as interpreter, the man who is being held in the county jail on a charge of preaching sedition, told his story to The Republican.
 He declared that it was a case of jealousy and that Miller, an American, was particularly keen to have him "out of the way" that his own suit with a fair daughter of Mexico might gain headway. He said he was not Villa sympathizer as reported by the officers of Gila Bend, that it was to escape
 trouble in Mexico that he had come to
 this country in the first place. He de-
 nied absolutely that he had attempted to incite hatred among the section
 crew for Americans. Its a lie," he said
 The man, who is a big, burly Mexi- can, said over and over again, Its all because of a woman. The woman, too, is a Mexican whose husband is said to have run away a week ago. Since then she has been besieged with attention from both Hernandez and Miller, according to the formers story In the meantime, unable to furnish the s1O0 bail demanded by Justice of the Peace De SOuza, Hernandez languishes in the county jail His preliminary hearing will be had Tuesday morning and it is understood a number of wit nesses from Gila Bend have been sub- poenaed by both the state and the de- | fendant.
