Olney's Candidacy
Mesa Tribune)

Persistent forts continue to be
made to create a prejudice against
George A Olney, by the chief ex-
ecutive and his friends, thrcug h
misrepresentation of him. 10 spit-
of the fact that Governor Hunt
recommended th- passage Of niue
tax law containing the ide Il ic Vi
provisions as the one which was
defeated during the session of 1915,
Mr.. Olney, v ho has never advocat
ed mine tax law, is continually
being slandered as making the
race IN the interest of the copper
companies.
The demand for Mr. Olney to
become candidae originate d
among conservative business men,
whose sole desi is to see man
in the position Of chief executive
of the state who will give fair an
Just treatment to every citizen,
both rich and poor, and who hac
confidence in him as being the mar
for the position.
In order to encompass his defeat
there is constant endeavor to sti
up strife between the wage earners
and the men who pay them; to pro
mote bitterness and strife where
there should instead be harmony
The chief organ Of labor in Phoe-
nix has openly boasted that this ii
a fight between capital and 1abo
and urges all its readers to supper
the present occupant of the guber-
material chair for another term
which will make his fourth term
elected.
Not satisfied with the efforts o
that class in the state. Mr. Gomper'
telegraphed to a convention O
worklngmen in Great Falls, Mon
tana, to indorse Governor Hunt
and to oppose prohibition.
As a result of this action of Com
pers, "Mother" Jones, one of th'
most notorious women ia America
has made her appearance in Arizo
ma with the avowed intention t,
"stump'' the state on behalf of tn
incumbent Of the Office.
Another Of the more notorious
advocates of the fourth term fo
| Governor Hunt is one De la Bara
who in a speech at Phoenix recent
ly is said to have gloated over th
murder Of United States soldiers il
Mexico, and who has also an
nOunced his intention to stump tn
state on his behalf.
Is that the sort of people whom
the voters of the state desire to Sc.
l.ct a chief executive for them? [
it any wonder that the conserva-
tive business men desire chang,
to man who will give all al
equal chance and who will not b.
dominated by this element?
AS between the two would it b.
any wonder that the larger ioter
ests of the state should prefer
man who announces his willing
ness to deai fairly with them, il
preference to one who selects suci
advisors as the above In the con
duct of the aft airs of the STATE?
