PROPERTY Our laws provide that the of all
property shall be based its full cash value believe
official record shows that have always fought for
higher rate of valuation on the property of the big min
companies paying too much taxes at the present time
PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS.
believe that every State and public institution should
be conducted along economic lines and that special audts
of the financial affairs of each institution should be made
at frequent intervals to determine not only how much
money being spent but whether not the greatest eff
cheney is being realized the expenditures made do
not think that political machine should be built up by
of patronage within the public institutions Of the
State and if elected Governor Of Arizona appointments
will be made to State institutions which will be based upon
merit and ability.
ROADS
1t appears that the of construction of State roads
under the present prison policy is expensive Aside
from this opinion that there many citizens Of the
State who could be protaby employed upon the highways
both to the advantage of the State and themselves and who
displaced by prison labor
believe the road system of the State should be ex-
tended as rapidly as conditions will justify and it will be
my aim if elected Governor of Arizona to encourage in
every way the construction Of State highways neigh
borhood roads, in order that the actual residents of the
State may be enabled reach another transact
their business by of good highways
LIVE STOCK INDUSTRY
The live stock industry is Of the most important
In state and the money annually realized from the sale
Of live stock and its products and circulated freely
throughout the State tends to stimulate all branches
trade.
believe that all laws enacted for the protection Of
this industry should be strictly enforced and that liberal
bouns should be paid for the destruction Of predatory
wild animals
