Chairman Maddock of the republican state committee was amused yesterday by reports reaching him that some of Senator Ashurst's supporters are find ing fault with the speech made by Judge Kibbey at the stadium the other night. It appears that these Ashurst partisans are complaining because Kibbey said nothing about the recla- mation service and said nothing of what he might do for the Salt River valley if he is elected to the senate to succeed Mr. Ashurst. They are also reported as asserting, that klbbey re- trained from saying anything on this topic because he is friendly to the of | ficals of the reclamation service and therefore did not dare to say anything which would reflect on his friends. l Judge Kibbey is not given to blow ing his own horn," said MT. Maddock, 'and very likely it was from modesty that he failed to go into the question which has been raised by the AShurst people. But since they have raised it. think the public can confidently ex- pect that the judge will discuss the matter in all it's bearings when he speaks next in Phoenix, which will be on October 10. He is now out of town i on his campaign"
 "The facts are" added MT. Maddock
 "and I think most people locally know it, that Judge Kibbey, as the attorney for the Water Users association, has for many months been in vigorous controversy with the officials of the reclamation service at Washington over the question of overcharges made by the government against the Roosevelt 1 project and the repudiation of the l findings of his own board of survey l by the secretary of the interior.

 "The Iron Claw" is nearing the end of it's tether very rapidly. Only two more installments Temain to be shown on the screen in this city before all twenty of them will have been run off, and one of the most interesting and thrilling serials ever seen here will have been completed. The nineteenth of these installments will be shown to- day and tomorrow at the Plaza the- ater. This weeks story gets a little nearer to the disclosure of the Laugh ing Mask" than ever before and shows this mysterious lair inside of a huge boulder strung cliff, to which access has been made by means of a spring in the side of the rock. Margery, (Pearl White) the beautiful heroine ob- tains the secret and goes there, mar rowly escaping death because "The Iron Claw" comes around at about the same time with perverseness that has been often shown by this desperate character, only by hiding on a shelf of cliff, risking her life by so doing does the girl escape detection. Some time after the arrival Of "The Laugh ing Mask" saves her from her serious situation. On this same program there will be a two-reel Mutual and two comedies making the whole program six reels in extent. The whole thing will be worth seeing as is everything at the Plaza.

His statement that Woodrow Wilson sneaked in at the back door while the republicans were cleaning house touched the crowd in the right spot and brought them en masse over to the side of the speaker
 Joe V. Prochaska won his audience , when he repeated his slogan that he was from Nebraska" He ex- plained that he was for giving the state a business administration, and 1 that he was not the kind of a man who. if elected to office, would hire clerks to do his work. Prochaska's s talk was applauded by the crowd. it being very evident that he had made Q powerful impression
 Mckenzie, who has proven one o1 the best takers yet developed in the l campaign, was in good form, and put | it straight to the crowd whether ol not they wanted a miner in charge of the state mine inspectors office.

Miss Dagmar caught glimpse of the reptile. but never moved a muscle of her face De Mile called to one of the cowboys who shot the snake, the bull let passing within foot of Miss Dag mars face.

Fathers of Men" Last Time at Lion

Robert Edeson, Naomi Childers and big cast of Vitagraph players includ- ing little Bobby Connolly are seen at the Lion today in a six-act drama of the great northwest, Fathers of Men" which presents a number of interesting scenes which show the mode of travel of the great northwest. In this country the woods and mountains are almost impossible and without the use of dog sleds the section would not be hab- itable.
 These dogs are hitched in numbers of ten, single file, to the sleds which serve as the only transportation the traders have from one post to another. | In Fathers of Men," Director Hum phrey has the original dogs which were 1 engaged by the Vitagraph company for ] this feature picture and they do more 1 than their share in lending realism to the scenes in which we have a glimpse of the great, vast and snowy wastes.
 Fathers of Men" is a fine picture and is shown for the last time today
 for tomorrow Barney Bernard of Pot
 ash and Perlmutter fame, will be seen | in a five-act comedy, Phantom For tunes" This is MT. Bernards first ap- pearance on the screen.

THE GREAT QUESTION

Some one has said that there hap pens just one big thing ill ever so often It holds good of pictures just as we'll as other things in the world. When Lois Weber produced Where Are My Children" she gave to contem- porary screen history one if not the most remarkable production, of the current year. It is remarkable in two ways. Its story is from life. It might and does happen every year in every city and every village in the land.
 The subject of our birth rate and the fate that awaits a nation which elects to disregard the bringing of children into the world is just now a paramount

The program at the Amuzu today is called "The Scorpions Sting" It is melodrama of the kind that gets right under your indifference and grips like a scorpion taking hold of you in the night. A convict sells his soul to the devil and that is the basis for the tale that brings to the screen the evil one who demands that his victim keep his promise and deliver up his soul as the wager requires. With "The Sting of the Scorpion" is a clever pair of com edy reels with Billie Ritchie in the title role. Billie Ritchie, who many believe is funnier than Chaplin, is one of the best liked fun makers on the Universal program. This double bill should find big favor with Amuzu pat rons. It remains for today only.

 His wife's name. with other society women of her set, adorns the pages of his private account book.
