PHOENIX REPUBLICAN CLUB n
 HELP T0M CAMPBELL L'5CONTEST

Here Is something for the friends of Tom Campbell, regardless of political affiliation, 10 read carefully, and then to act upon in accordance with their consciences and their means.
 The regular monthly meeting of the Phoenix Republican club was held last night. with even q larger attendance than had been expected. Many speeches of qualification at the recent success of some of the republican candidates and the near success If others whose cam paigns smacked of victory even in de- feat, were indulged in and it was unan- imously agreed that the result of the clubs two years of effort had been manifestly worth while and it's activ- ities should he maintained consistently until better government in this county and state has become an actuality.
 Then the facts oft surmiscd, but def- initely announced yesterday, relative to the democratic contest for tbc gov ernor's chair, were placed before the meeting and there was enthusiastic endorsement of tho theory that the clrh hos q very important work to do right row. Governor Hunt has employed or caused 10 be ernnloyed. sorne of Inc best counsel in the state. The state mont has been made that if possible. all the ballots cast at the last election will be brought into court in this city for reoountlne- and that 2 fund of sev- cral thousands of dollars has already been provided for the waging of the contest and the machinery is creased for all added sums that can be used to any advantage toward that end.
 In combating the contest as much money will doubtless be needed on the other side, which at this moment hasn't got f.. notwithsfandIng the dorrec-a'ie assertions Of a republican slush fund oi

This does not mean that the fight against the contest will go by default. for if there is any, thing certain in this state al this time. 1t Is that the necessary money will be secured somehow. by somebody al this cVritical time. to uphold the hands of authorized government against ma chine supremacy. The amount needed IS not known nor the day nor the hour Tn which 1t may be called for.

 The widest mi '---ity is sought. for there is nothing more honorable than
 to help a noble champion maintain the victory he has gained against uneven odds. The appeal therefore, Is not

Astonishment of some hunters at the sight of thousands of gallons of water apparently wasting iron d drainage ditch onto arid Indian land, south of Tempe. Sunday, led to he discovery that the project to unwater the famous alkali tract of Tem Is meeting with success. Already a number of acres of land. hitherto let to the sedge grass that grows in allSal. soil. are being plowed up. preparatory to washing.
 Something like 6,O0O miners inches of water is flowing from the uncom- pleted drainage ditch, which Is de- signed ultimately 10 carry off excess water from a tract a mile wide by over five miles long. This water is growing more pure each day, proving that a large quantity of the alkali and soda is being carried away Deposits Of the saline substances along the banks of the drainage ditch in some places give the appearance of salt bed.
 The construction of the ditch, it win be recalled. was begun last spring when ssO.00O in bonds was issued by the Tempe water users. The ditch reaches a maximum depth of about 12
