Navapai county should give him a solid vote. It Is unnecessary for me to remind citizens of the State of the very decided interest that is being taken by so many in the dcvcl opmcnt of Arizcna's great resources. If it IS possible to prevent those who are disposed to create troublesome obstacles, calculated to interfere with the favorable development of the vast, unlimited resources of the State, the great strides that are just now being made, and the interest that Is being taken by not only mining men but men of all kinds. it will result in a most pronounced improvement in con ditions generally throughout the State. To do this, it will require just such a man as Tom Campbell, for governor.
 As a result of my recent trip throughout the State, and meeting the candidates on the Republican ticket, was made to feel under great obli gation to the various committees that had done so much toward getting the right kind of men to assume the re- sponsibility of taking the nominations on the Republican ticket. 1 failed to find anyone capable of putting up an argument reficcting upon the various candidates, a rare experience. There is no one on the Republican ticket that anyone needs 10 hesitate about voting for, as near as 1 was able to judge from information gathered.
 While 1t Is to be expected that great deal Of politics" will be talked, and many features enlarged upon, un- favorable to candidates, what we want in Arizona, is a disposition to be fair to all concerned, and give the busi- ness interests of the State chance to expand in keeping with their merits Those inclined to take a business chance should be assured of a square

ADE TELLS WHY HE WILL VOTE
 FOR HUGHES
CANDIDATE IS MADE TO ORDER FOR PROGRES- SIVE ELEMENT, DECLAR- ES NOTED WRITER.

C:t -AGO, Oct l7.-This year l am going to vote for Charles Evans
 Hughes as against Woodrow Wilson for a good many reasons. Four years ago l was a Progressive. It Is true that my enthusiasm for some of the blanks in the Progressive platform was so moderate that I had no trou- blc in controlling it. l was not scared to death by the proposals made in the platform, as some of our Republican friends seemed to be, but l had my reasonable doubts.
 I liked the spirit and makeup and leadership Of the Progressive party and l tried to be loyal to the organi zation two years ago. but it was evi- dent, even then, that the very struc- ture of the party was beginning to crumblc. The Progressive party had to keep growing or go out of busi- ness. The logic of events restored the Republican party to its timc-hon orcd place as principal corrcctor of Democratic mismanagcmcnt.
 The ProgrcsSivcs must not figure that they have made losing fight. Why, even the Democrats are now talking tariff commission (with a hy- brid sort of protection as an incl dental and unavoidable sidc-issuc) and they have passed child-labor law, which is poor imitation of the one that will be passed very soon. And the Republicans have nominated for president a candidate who was simply made to order for the Pro- grcssivc element.
 I marched with the Progressive party until it became a dwindling of bleeding martyrs and I would have continued to march t there had been a probability Of our anywhere. 1 liked my travel ing companions and the scenery but a man cannot continue a journey which offers no terminus.
 believe the first duty of every good citizen this year is 10 join the to change Washington from wordiactory to d dccd-iact- ory For one, had enough alpaca coat, and Chautauqua, and college and the olcaginous Joscphus to last me for hundred years.
 Colonel Roosevelt did the sensible and patriotic thing last January when he indicated that he was ready to jump in and support any good Rcpub- l. lican who could defeat Wilson.
 The colonel saw hat was wrong up at Washington from the very start. Mir. Wilson means to be sin !

Prescott, Ariz., Oct II, 1910. Editor, Prescott Journal-Aliner,
 Prescott, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 wish to thank you for rc-publiSh- ing the article from the Douglas Dis patch, relating to some remarks made by a Bisbcc lawyer. It Is too bad there are not more people fearless enough to deal with men of the kind as they deserve. I wish there were more men like Tom Campbell, ready to speak out and let people know where they stand, giving all concern cd an opportunity Of knowing what they can depend upon. l happen to be one of the few who organized the Republican party in Prescott in the carly days, and have, so far as know, always tried to be on the square with everyone, regardless of whether they thought as l did, or not, devoting a large part of my energy, judgment, and business experience to the up building of the resources of the State. While doing so, I have encountered many disappointmcnts caused by men of the kind Tom Campbell came in contact with, and to which the Doug las Dispatch referred to.
 I had the pleasure of being present at a Republican meeting the other night. l recently also made Q trip to the southern part of the State, where l met a number of candidates. l was very much impressed with the char acter and qualifications of the men who accepted the responsibility Of running for office on the Republican ticket, and was particularly impressed with the confidence and endorsement of men of affairs who helped put the State where it is, and materially as sisted in developing the business in terests throughout the State gener- ally
 was disappointed when attending the Republican meeting in Prescott, that it was not proclaimed unhesitat- ingly, that Tom Campbell IS entitled to receive every vote cast in NavaPai county l have known Tom from his boyhood, and watched the interest he has taken in the politics of the State, and his fcarlessness in dealing with vital questions as the same relate to

PECULIAR CYCLE OF SHOTGUN
 ACCIDENTS
JACOB RITTER, 82 YEARS OF AGE, LOSES TWO FINGERS WHEN BARREL OF GUN EXPLODES.
(From Tuesday's DaiIyD

Age and experience do not figure in making ono immune from accidents, by gun barrels exploding. as was dem onstrated few days ago, when ven erablc Jacob Ritter, of Kirkland val ley. had two fingers of his right hand so badly shattered that they had to be amputatcd in this city.
 His mishap was similar to that over taking young Burt Tucker, but under conditions that were more fortunate, however, Mir. Rittcr's injuries not be- ing as serious as those of the boy. lr the case of the resident of Kirkland. he went hunting for small game, and firing into a covcy of birds the barrel of his shotgun exploded, two fingers being blown off, and after he was brought to this city the fragments were removed by a surgical operation. He was placed in Mercy hospital, near the quarters occupied by the Tucker youth The Tucker boy Is only l3 years Of age, while Mir Ritter is in his S3rd year. Tell the kid across the hallway to keep stiff upper lip, as the old Hassayampcr fell down on the same line of goods, and is grin ming under his misfortune when his age should have warned him of the track in monkcying with an old weapon, he jocoScly informed friends. The two situations of extremes in age intervening in each case of an acci- dent so closely allied, both being un- der the same medical care, Is consid- cred as one Of the most exceptional incidents in character of mishaps ever taking place in this city. Mir. Ritter, however, iS ready to return home. but Burt Tucker remains under treatment to save his hand, if possible.

 Of late Mir.

 Making all due allowance for the . Democratic effort to put the platform !. of 1912 into effect, can any voter in 1910 ignore the following array of !. cold and icy facts:
 The Democrats said in 1912 that . they would reduce the cost of living. . All necessities and staples are now . higher than ever before. We do not 1 blame the Democrats for high prices. We do blame them for continually making idle promises.
 For instance, how about the def mite promise to enforce economy and rim down appropriations: They have been in the pork-barrcl up to their ,lbowS.
 The Democrats tinkcrcd the tariff . md hard times followed. The pres mt abnormal prosperity has resulted rom flood of European war orders The war will end in 1917 or 1918. .'
