CNogales Oasis)
 In defining it's reasons refusing longer support Governor Hunt Oasis of Nogales takes the course pursued by many papers and publishes frank ly the facts which promped it pass the present Chief Executive search candidate who would bet ter conserve the growing of the State. It is interesting note that the repudiaton of Governor Hunt by the press of Arizona has accompanied by no malice Like The Review, the other repre- sensitive newspapers their respective localities speak of Gov with the charity praising his scientousness deporing the failure which has at tended his tenure of office The Oasis says:
 editorial articles upon current affairs in Arizona The Oasis has made plain always that while supporting administration of Governor Hunt along some ines it was following that lead upon others This newspaper made clear it's dissent the prison policy anticapita punishment attitude of his excel lency.
 With the statement presented in the foregoing para graph that this newspaper has been committed in way renomination and reelection of Governor Hunt, has been free at all times to support another should there appear before the people who could be dependedo carry those policies that command them selves to the thought in Arizona and at the could depended upon enforce all the laws of the state.
 Tn the person of George A. Oney, of Maricopa county formerly Graham county) The Oasis believes there is presented the very best the requirements of the day Olneys in official position under the territorial regime that he cannot be controlled by shirkers dodgers wheth CT in the guse of great corporations or individuals ing friendship racket and his elevation the ota aaIIt tl,a of t,a state. That is what Arizona needs than anything else: law enforcement Too many laws ignored openly and violated without hesancy As has been de- cared in these columns time and again failure enforce properly law begets in the eyes of the tempt for all laws There has been, in the view of The Oasis. in that very subject the great garng def ciency in the present administration By his refusal those provisions of law requiring capital ishment Governor Hunt weakened the binding force and effect of all law Any executive who reserves the right, exercising openly compunction, to pick choose what will enforce and what en actments he will ignore consistently restrain those who would refuse be bound by laws they con demn and oppose.
 To that postulate it is say that in his titude Governor Hunt has been conscientious. the greatest crimes against the rights of have been committed by rulers who conscientious. And der free government that be maintained free only by universal respect for law discrimination by cutlve in the matter of law with conscieous motives is destructive of that respect and obedience law which very keystone the arch of democratic institutions
 For these The Oasis Ina hesitation in sup porting the nomination of MT Olney knowing his long and commendabe public that he be de pended to enforce all the laws of the state, that he will play favorites. Hence when it to the primary elections in August, it advises those who be- lieve in enforcement of law to their nomi nation of Hon. George A oney the Democratic nomi for governor of Arizona"
