ANSWERS MANY QUESTIONS
 THEN ASKS A FEW HIMSELF
Workingmen at Miami Discuss Matters Of Vital Interest to State With Tom
 Campbell in Open Meeting.

MIAMI, Oct. O.-Republican and Democratic rallies were held in the two large mining cities of Gila coun- tyy last night, the Republicans hold ing forth at Miami and the Demo- crats at Globe. Both drew good au- dienccs, but the Tom Campbell meet ing was of more than ordinary inter est because of the invitation extended by Mir. Campbell to ask him ques- tions, and the generous acceptance on the part of few men scattered about the theatre amid the crowd that pack cd the house and the entrance. It was serious audience for the ques- tions were of an economic nature, all of them, and the answers sometimes brought quick retort which called for further elucidation on the part of the quick-witted and we'll informed can didate for governor.
 That the audience was pleased by the fairness and the readiness on the part of Mir Campbell to assist the questioner in bringing out the full meaning of the questions, and the sat isfactory answers. was shown in the spontaneous applause of approval which followed. That Governor Hunt will now have some economic ques tions to answer when he reaches Globe and Miami is certain from the way Tom Campbell passed the buck of responsibility to the Democrats.
 The audience discussed the Clifton strike, unionism, the eighty per cent law, and other matters with the speaker, and they found Tom Camp bell quick to respond, unevasivc, able and friendly. It was goodnatured audience that came to ask, to listen, and to take issue with the speaker, and finally to accept Tom Campbell's slogan of fairness and frmness with labor and capital. as genuine.
 After the meeting a reception was held in the hall and the men who pro- pounded questions came forward to shake the hand of the big fellow, and out in the street great crowd gath cred waiting for him there, and he was held for an hour in a free-for-all 
 After answering the questions pre-

sented during the speaking, Mir Camp bell proceeded to ask some himself
 Has the strike in the Morenci dis trict been settledS he asked, and silence followed until the forceful speaker shouted No, and you work men here know it as well as l."
 There have been at least a half dozen strikes there since and who settled them? Have they been set tied? Are you workmen satisfied with the situation there? I was in that district for two days and know what the situation is there. It is just as bad as 1t ever was. Governor Hunt did not settle anything, and you know it, you workmen, don't you now?-' and there was no answer from the audience. Men shook their heads in approval, and one man shouted: That's the truth, Tom"
 Mr. Campbell pointed to Jerome, the camp where he lived and worked for so many years, and said he was the arbitcr of more labor controver- sies than any man who ever lived there, and the men never left their work. Today, he said, that camp has the best industrial conditions of any in the State. He pointed out miners in the audience who worked for him in his mining operations in Jerome and referred to the workmen of Miami to them to ascertain whether or not he was fair to organized labor or not.
 He spoke briefly of the extrava- gance of the State administration. and told of his own vote in adding one hundred million dollars to the tax rolls from mines and other corpora tions as member of the State tax commission the past two years. He pointed out the position this State would be in ii it did not have capital to develop its resources, pointing to the millions spent by the Miami and Inspiration companies before cent of revenue was returned.
 George H. Smalley, candidate for State tax commissioner; John L. Gust for attorney general, and Doane Mer- Till, for auditor, also spoke. George R. Hill, of Globe, presided at the

LAST SESSION OF
 INSTITUTE THE BEST
(From Fridays Daily)

The old adagc about the best being last was demonstrated once again at the final session of the joint-county institute held on Thursday. Mir. Mil Ter, Iavapai county's superintendent of schools, deserves and has received the praise and gratitude of every member of the institute for arranging so genuinely interesting and worth while program.
 The opening number yesterday, a violin duet, Dreamy Paradise" by Miss Greer and Miss McNulty, ac- companied by Miss Adams, was beau- tifully given and the encore demand cd by the enthusiastic applause was equally appreciated.
 MT. Macurda very amusingly de- clarcd that from all appearances. ad- dressing the audience before him on The Teachers Hcalth,' was very much like carrying coals to Ncwcas- tie. His treatment of a subject un. thought and unheard of 50 years ago was marked by power, real knowledge and earnest conviction. Naturally poor physical endowment, overwork in preparation, unhygienic conditions in class rooms, insufficient salary and personal indifference, Mr. Macurda enumerated as the chief reasons for poor health among teachers.
 Institute was dismissed at II O. clock in order that townsfolk and visitors alike might attend the ccre- monies of the laying of the corner stone of Navapais new court house

PUT SAFE MEN ON GUARD IN
 PHOENIX
ELI S. PERRIN WOULD STAND IN FRONT RANK OF THE WORKING, EFF FICIENT SENATORS.

Eli s. Perkins. of Crown King candidate for State senator, has been in Prescott for several days in the interest of his campaign. During the week, however, he succeeded in clos ing one mining deal on the side, and will leave for home Monday morning.
 Eli is known by his first name by a large number of people in Prescott, and in Congress Junction, where he formerly resided, as we'll as in the Bradshaw mountain country. He has been active for many years in inter- esting capital in various Arizona en- terprises and is at the present time one of the spirits bold enough to in augurate the driving of a five-mile de- velopmcnt tunnel in the Bradshaw mountains. He says the tunnel will be driven some day in spite of the notion of some that it is too big an undertaking.
 Before coming to Yavapai county. Perkins lived in Apache county and represented the people thereof in the Territorial council in 1901, and could have succeeded himself, but he chose to stick to private life. He is man who does not care anything about the notoriety of politics, but he likes the excitement. and is always in touch with public sentiment. His varied business experiences in the State serve to make him one of the best posted, and most desirable men to elect to the senate that could be chosen.
 Aside from the fact that Perkins is we'll posted, he is independent in thought and action. He has a host of friends in the county who arc work ing for his election, and it is a pretty safe guess that he soon can be prop crly addressed as Senator" as many of his friends have already dubbed him. One thing certain, a cosmopolitc like Eli will not show any signs of being stuck up" if honorcd by the people, for a man in overalls looks just as good to him as a man in full dress. and his many friends among the laboring people will attest to this.
 One of his friends says of him. that he is at home among men of any class, and that he feels as much at

FEAST OF REASON IS
 PROVIDED TEACHERS
(From Thursdays Dailv.)

Institute was opened Wednesday morning by Dr. A. B. Scherer, presi- dent of Throop College of Technol- ogy, Pasadena, Cal, who gave to a crowded auditorium so remarkable and delightful an address that the hour he talked seemed not half long enough. Dr. Scherer captures his audience from the first moment and holds not-to-be-broken interest as long as he chooses to speak. He has an inexhaustible store of personal re- miniscence to illustrate each point he makes.
 'Is Uncle Sam Too Old to Learn?'' was the subject of his brilliant and sparkling lecture, in which American ism, its virtues and faults, tendencies and problems was dissected and dis cussed so skillfully that thought was quickened and stimulated in all who listened.
 Dr. Mathews, president of the Tenn pe' Normal school, was unable to ar rive. His place on the program was taken by Mir. Griffen, who made an admirable plea for fuller instruction in nature study and the elementary essentials of agriculture in the public schools. Mir. Griffen's suggestions were so convincing that everyone inn mediately experienced a strong desire to forget the traditional three R's and teach dry-farming and enrichment of the soil.
 NIT. Macurda in his talk on Some Modern Attempts to Improve Educa- tion' was both revolutionary and ii- luminating. He particularly stressed scientific marking, according to uni versal standards, individual promo ton and the use of the Binet-Simon intelligence tests. Mir. Macurda is all ways interesting and convincing.
 At the afternoon session, J. C. MuerInan gave some inside informa- tion regarding Uncle Sam's ideas on public education. He explained the system whereby public schools are judged and made an unforgetable ap- peal to every teacher to work more earnestly and more intelligently to bring her room or her school up to a national standard.
 Dr. Scherer's lecture on Shake Speare, the Teacher" was delivered with rare charm and understanding.
 The land Of Shakespeare appeared at his call with all its beauty and lure. The listeners beheld in Dr. Scherer's own words "an open vision of the be- loved playwright" The discussion of Shakespeare's work was both popu- lar and scholarly and the entire ad- dress was given with delicacy and real feeling.
 The musical program was unusually delightful. Miss Gladys Ruffner and Miss Dorothy Stuthman gave a diff cult and well executed piano duet. The solo work of Miss Greer, of Pres colt, and Miss Hopkins, of Jerome, was received with real appreciation and delight.
 The afternoon closed with a round table discussion of music in the vari- ous departments.

Educational circles were greatly shocked yesterday when it was an nounced that Miss Gertrude Fitz- gerald, visiting teacher from Jerome had passed away during the forenoon lat l0:30 o'clock, after an illness since last Monday only The fatal aftlic- tion was heart trouble. and this sad death occurring when there were so many of her profession in the city at tending the teachers institute, has cast a deep gloom over all in and out of this calling.
 Miss Fitzgerald arrived in Prescott last Saturday afternoon, and when stricken appeared to be in good health.

She came to that city from Los Angeles, where mother resides Her remains are at Ruffncr's and will be shipped home this afternoon.
