GIRL DRIVER
 IN LONG TRIP
Miss Hattie Tallan Gets Hunch to Go Touring, Buys Car and Accom- plishes 600-Mile Journey Without Trouble

Arizona is a genuine suffrage state in more ways than one. Conditions in this great, big, free -and-easy, sure enough western state have for years been such as to give women the op- portunity to prove their ability in many lines of endeavor barred to them in the solemn, moss-bound country east of the Alleghanies
 f Arizona women have operated mines, bossed big cattle outfits, farmed great ranches, superintendent county schools, bossed ferry boast and chauffered jitney lines while their eastern sisters have thought the abil- ity to mark straight" ticket correctly : to be a great achievement.
 Long motor trips, with women driv- CTS at the wheel, are common occur rences nowadays, but a trip made the past week by a young woman of this i city is worth more than the usual i paragraph that marks such incidents ! Just two months ago Miss Matte Tal- 1 lant Of 235 East Washington decided she should have an automobile of her own, and bought Ford touring car. 1 After enjoying number of sittle runs around the valley Miss Tallant out lined a little 500 mile trip about two weeks ago. and then ill spite of the predictions of her friends, proceeded to accomplish said trip just as ! planned. In just seven days after leaving Phoenix she drove to Florence, Tucson, Bisbee and Douglas and re- turn and with the exception of the going trip to Tucson she was abso- lutely unaccompanied for the entire distnce. She reports very pleasant | trip. absolutely unmarred by a single bit of tire or engine trouble, and says that the Ford is the most wonderful car on the market. Never did the Ford refuse to go just where she wanted it to, and never did it ask for any attention past its regular allow ance of gasoline and oil Her return trip from Tucson, a distance of 13l miles, was made between .4:30 in the morning and 1O:30. Desert rides in Arizona are delightful. says Miss Tallant, if taken early in the morn ing, especially just before sun-up. Her time from Tucson to Phoenix would have been still less, had she not spent nearly an hour looking for detour to take her around the bad road be- tween the mountain ard Higley She confirms the report that Ed Ru- dolph made q few days since, thai the road is so much better from Florence to Tucson. that in spite oi it's greater length many F1orentines prefer to drive to Tucson rather thar
 to Phoenix when wishing to do some
 special shopping. A word to the
 wise.

ROADS

It appears that the cost of construction of State roads under the present prison policy is expensive Aside from this my opinion is that there are many citizens of the State who could be proitaby employed upon the highways both to the advantage of the State and themselves, and who now displaced by prison labor.
 believe the road system of the State should be extended as rapidly conditions will justify and it will be my aim if elected Governor of Arizona to en- courage n every way the construction of State high ways and neighborhood roads, in order that the actual residents of the State may be enabled to reach one a other and transact their business by means of good hi0bWavS

THE NATIONAL GUARD

An efficient national guard is absolutely essen tial to the safety and protection of the whole people 1 believe that the State guard should be placed effective footing and to this end every encourage ment should be extended to young men to enlist and cooperate in building up the organization. In order to maintain efficient National Guard it must not be used as political machine.

LABOR

1 am in favor of every man, and particularly the man who ab0s with his hands, realizing the fullest extent of the rewards which should be his by reason of his daily toll.
 believe that the relation between employer and employe should be placed upon high plane of mu- tual understanding, and that the offices of the State might well be employed toward assisting and encour aging the greatest mutual interest and gool feeling between these two classes which mean much to the State.
 I trust that the above statements which have attempted to make frankly and without reserve, will indicate to the people of Arizona my attitude upon all questions discussed herein
 It is not possible to in a general statement all of the questions that may arise during the cam paign but I wish to say that 1 have always been firm believer in the rule of the majority and if elect ed Governor shall endeavor to honestly and fairly enforce the laws as l find them, without fear and without favor.
 shall be glad to have you give the foregoing such publicity as you desire.

PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS

TAXATION

In the matter of taxation the Democratic doctrine of equal rights to all and special privileges to none and must be eXemplfied in the assessment of prop erty for taxation, and if elected will do everything in my power without subterfuge evasion to make this principle effective.
 1 have no hobby in the way of revenue legislation simply demand that all property regardless of class or ownership becompeed to bear its just proportion of the tax burdens.
 LAM OPPOSED TO ANY SPECIAL LAW FOR THE TAXATION OF MINES OR ANY OTHER CLASS OF PROPERTY. Our laws provide that the assessment of all property shall be based it's full cash value l believe that this law should be fairly and firmly enforced. My official record shows that have always fought for higher rate of valuation on the property of the big mining companies and rail roads, and do not think these companies are paying too much taxes at the present time.

GORDON DOESN'T
CARE so MUCH
FOR HIS PLACE
GIVE Got Lots of Offers,
Says Superintendent of
Charities.

According to statements made by
superintendent Spencer R. Gordon of
the department of charities, today, he
has resigned himself to the inevitable
and is ready to give up his position at
the request of the administration.
Mr.. Gordon said he had received a
f1attering offer with a salary far in ex-
cess of his present one' within the last
"a hours and it is evident that he is
considering the offer. The offer came
from a Connecticut institution.
Superintendent Gordon appeared
disguised with his present position and
even went so far to admit that he
did not care to hold a position where
he could not do constructive work. ST
do not care for a job where I can't
do constructive work. he said. It
has been intinated that his resignation
is already drawn up and that it will
be placed in the hands of the mayor
before the end of the week.
Gordon said that since his connec-
ton with the local charities depart
ment he has turned down several fat
tering offers in other cities and states.
He does not care to work where he is
under the whip of the administration.
He believes in Sunday moving pic
lures to certain extent, but does not
believe in allowing Sunday moving
pictures where the proprietors are go
ing to make profit by keeping open on
Sunday.
It has been assumed for many
months that Gordon would have to go
Harmony was lacking in the depart
ment of charities Gordon has peen
known to post orders governing the
conduct of emergency hospital physi-
clans of an evening and rescind that
order and post a new one the follow
ing day Physicians claim they did
not know what would be the proper
procedure in various cases and many
of them ignored the rulings
Rumors are current that his sue
cessor will be a local man, the admin
istration finally seeing the inadv1sa-
bility of placing an out-of-town man
N the position. Intimations have
been made that the probable appointee
wo.tld be Investigator Alexander L.
Morrissey, investigator of the depart
ment of charities and connected with
the department for the last 18 years
