There is a genuine respect for

to show its respect for money by
operating on safe and conser-
vative principles.
THE ARIZONA STATE BANK
bids for the respect of the peo-
pie and operates on the principle

1t is the function of the Ariz-

Judge Sapp has evidently de-
cided that boot-leggers, when
once convicted, should have plen-
ty of time for meditation before
considering their applications for
probation. We understand that
the probation cases were contin-
uad to September, and by that
time, if not sooner, the prisoners
may conclude to tell the Court
who supplied them with the IL
quor they peddIed.

The democrats are in session
at St. Louis, convening Wednes-
day at noon, but interest in their
deliberations is not very tense,
as it is a foregone conclusion Mr..
Wilson will be renominated. Ev-
cry patriotic Arizonian will be
interested to know that Mr.. Mar

There is one plank in the old
democratic platform Of 1912 the
people of this country will insist
on fulfillment. In substance it
says one term for a democratic
administration is enough, and the
people are in hearty accord with
the sentiment. w. j. Bryan is
the author of that plank, which
is the only manifestation given
the people that he is a prophet
and a statesman.

AS we anticipated, the three
cent fare order of the Corpora
tion Commission has already
started out on it's political mis-
sion. Amos Belts, rate clerk for
the commission, and a candidate
for commissioner on the demo
cratic ticket, claims to be re-
sponsible for the slash at the
railroads, and advances it as an
argument for his nomination. If
that is his only claim for prefer
ment he ought to be defeated.

The friends of Mr.. Geo. Olney,
who want him to succeed Gov.
Hunt as the democratic nominee,
are now working in northern
Arizona to get an organization
perfected, and they seem conf
dent of success at the primary.
What we cannot understand is
why these two gentlemen are
fighting so hard for nomina-
ton, when that is all they can
hope for. This is a republican
The Winslow mail., 1916-06-16

1t is disquieting news to the
democratic managers that Mr..
Roosevelt will not be a third par
ty candidate, and progressive re-
publicans will come back in the
republican fold where they right
fully belong, and support Hughes
and Fairbanks. How the demo-
Gratis would have rejoiced had
the outcome been different, and
it only proves their misconception
of the true character of Roose-
welt. He is not ambitious for
honors or notoriety, but is man
of strong convictions on national
policies, and so firm is his con-
victions that he would fight alone
if necessary in their defense, and
a true fighting spirit always wins
a following. Mr.. Roosevelt
takes no heed of men. 1t is the
principle only for which they
stand that appeals to him. He
approves the strong declarations
of the republican platform for
preparedness, for uphoIding the
honor and dignity of American
citizenship, for a merchant ma
rine, and for a protective tariff.
He approves the platform, and
now he waits the letter of ac-
ceptance of the nominee. If it
rings true the sage of Oyster
Bay will declare for Hughes and
Fairbanks, and the requiem for
democracy has begun.
The Winslow mail., 1916-06-16

The Los Angeles newspapers
that carry big advertisements of
cool, foaming lager beer should
be prohibited from circulating in
the state. 1t is sad enough to be
compelled to go without an in

adding to our misery with tempt
ing advertising.
The Winslow mail., 1916-06-16

That Mr.. Hughes is a man Of
decisive action is evidenced by
the fact that within the hour of
his nomination for President he
rendered his resignation as a
member of the U. S. Supreme
to be effective at once. No talk,
just action is Hughes trait.

Charles Evans Hughes.

1OlC III Illolly llAOIlCl1O C1CIC Z w oO
a strong popular sentiment grow
ing in favor Of Charles Evans
Hughes that only needed his
acquiesence to make it an &C
complished fact; the surprise,
however, is the manner in which
the old political bosses signally
failed to stem the tide, and saw
the naming of a President con-
trary to their will. Combina-
tions of favorite sons and all 9th
er expedients Of the trained pol
iticians was as naught to the de-
termined will of the delegates.
1t was not the solid vote Of states
but a few votes from every state
wherein laid the Hughes support
that made the convention un
manageable by the bosses.
The nomination Of Mr.. Hughes
was a most happy solution of the
perplexing situation in which the
republican party found itself af-
ter 1912. The revolt of the pro-
gressives was not their lack of
faith in the principles of the re-
publican party, but loss of con-
fidence in the party management.
With Mr.. Hughes as the stand
ard bearer, with his known indie
pendence of organization, and a
clear mind, and a strong will of
his own to carry out his pur-
poses, a strong decisive platform
of principles in perfect harmony
with progressive thought, what
is more reasonable than the at
titude of Roosevelt and his sup
porters to turn again to the re-
publican fold, where they right
ly belong, and have been so sad
ly missed.
Mr.. Hughes public life covers
comparatively a few years, but
his rise has been rapid and bril-.
liant, not unlike Mr.. Roosevelt's,
not through favoritism and infu-
ential backing, but by sheer
strength of character, setting
aside established precedence, and
taking up the cudgel for needed
reforms, even though threatened
with political grave. He first
came into national prominence
as the attorney who uncovered
the dens of corruption in the big
insurance companies of New
York. This work brought him
the nomination and election as
governor of the Empire state,
where his native executive abili-
ty was soon manifest. His mas
terly leadership and fighting quail
tiles had another chance to dis
play themselves, when he was
opposed, not only by powerful
influences outside his party, but
his own party leaders as we'll. 1t
was the anti-race track bill he
asked the legislature to pass,
but corrupt and insiduous lob
by controlled, and they adjourn
ed. Nothing daunted, and con-
vinced of the righteousness of
his fight, he took the issue squar-
ly before the voters, and the leg
islature returned we're with Mr..
Hughes. Here is the man who
never wavers when convinced of
a duty to perform.
His brilliant legal attainments
attracted the notice of President
Taft, who appointed MIN Asso-
ciate Justice of the u. S. Supreme
Court, where he was at once re-
cognized as strong addition to
that learned tribunal.
Not a flaw can be found in Ell
ther his public or private life,
and when his letter of accept
ance is given to the public there
will be no doubt left as to where
he stands on the momentous
questions that will arise in this
campaign.
