DEMOCRATS HOLD 4
 FINAL H|P-HOORAY

The democratic party's watchful waiting policy was continued at Phoe- nix last night when Thomas r. Gore. the blind senator from Oklahoma, fired the final guns of the campaign in support of President Wilson and the democratic party at large.
 The aforesaid watchful waiting pol icy that made it's advent into this city, consisted of keeping the audience staring at a barren stage for over thirty minutes. Those who had plan ned the event were evidently ar-sight ed and an attempt was made to console the uneasy ones by beautiful floral decorations, which were placed at ran dom about the rostrum. And these decorations, 1t might be added, were the most attractive feature of the gathering.
 It was a large audience that greeted the Oklahoma senator notwithstand- ing. Practically every seat in the the ater was filled-filled, to a large eX tent, with children between the ages of , and l4 years.
 About 66 per cent of those in at tendance were old line democrats who never had. nor never will. conceive of the idea of voting other than a straight ballot. In fact, to large majority of these men it would be a crime to vote other than straight ticket
 The remaining 34 per cent were chll-

LAST FAIRY
 STORY GONE

The last of the fairy tales of "The Festival of the Seasons" appeared in The Republican Saturday.
 Since that morning hundreds of girls and boys have telephoned the office asking If there would be no more stories.
 - No. bows and girls, there will be no more. This will give you plenty of time to arrange the stories in book form and illustrate it for. remember. that the best illustrated booklet wins a prize. The contest is open to all children under the age of l4. whether or not they take part in the pageant which is to be a big feature of fair week. The booklets must be sent to The Republican not later than Tuesday of fair week and the prize will be awarded the last night of the produc- ton.
 There are other opportunities for the youngsters to win prizes. Every child in the city Is eligible for the children's parade, which will take place before the races of Children's day at the state fair. There will be prizes for the bi- cycle that carries the best decoration. prizes for toy wagon decorations, hand motors. doll buggies, baby carriages and goodness knows what else There will also be a prize for the best cos- tune. The entire list offered will be made public Saturday.
 Applications for entry in the parade will be received at the Studebaker building. First and Monroe streets. where the pageant is being rehearsed daily.

MINOR GIRLS
 AIM IT COURT

There will be no more Joy rides for girls who have not yet reached their majority.
 There will be no motor trips with men that end at road houses
 There will be no late hours for minors.
 Or if there are-there will be juvenile court action.
 This was made apparent in q com plaint filed by Probation Officer w. ]. Osborn yesterday. charging a young girl with being 'incorrigible." Babe" he alleged, went joy riding with men who gave her liquor and took her tn questionable places and kept her out until long after the time when nice girls should be at home.
 Last spring a number of these cases attracted the attention of the officers and court action quieted affairs for a time Recently number of new cases have sprung up, the outcome of which have been serious criminal charges. | The officers are determined to end crime by keeping closer watch on young girls and the ediet is that mid night revelries must cease

DEMOS BOOST ODDSF0R THE
 GRAND BLUFF

As in the east where betting on the election is becoming the favorite pas time. Phoenix sportsmen are laying their money on todays political bat tie Practically all phases of the na- tiOnal election and the election of governor and senator. are receiving at tertion from the bettors. Prevailing odds here are two to one on the democratic incumbents of the presi- dency and the governorship, but there is more republican money in sight than ever before.
 Five betting commissioners in Phoe- nix last night reported unofficially that something over S2O,00O lay in their vaults to be passed out when todsy's election is over. This is the largest sum ever reported to have been hung up by local bettors.
 Seven or eight thousand dollars side has been bet on Hunt and Camp bell The prevailing odds are to on Hunt. There was even money yesterday that Hunt would beat Campbell by 2,h00 votes. Democrats offered several hundred dollars at 1 to that Campbell would not carry his home county, Yavapai. This was taken, though not eagerly. by republi- cans.
 The odds were to l on Ashurst to heat kibbey. but there was not heap of democratic coin offered on thls Reports from the east that the odds or the national election had been flattened from 10 to to Sh to 7h were not confirmed by authentic re- turns. Republican workers made the assertion, and proved it in some in- stances. that long odds on democratic candidates, were being quoted by demo workers. merely for the psychological effect of this extreme confidence on the voters. Similarly. the claim that the confidence expressing odds of big bettors in New York on Hughes. had been hammered down by floods oi democratic money had been made just 10 stall the guileless ginks
 A democratic betting commissioner last night admitted he had been of fered more Hughes money than Wilson money.
 There were nc split bets-such as offer on Hughes and Hunt or Wilson and Campbell in spite of the fact many Of these had been predicted.
 There was one pet Of three $10O lots on Campbell. Hughes and prohibition. and this was the only bet of record on any of the measures Another double bet made was s100 even on Hughes and $50 even on Campbell to go together. This was taken.
 The only bets on county offices were at 2 to l on Bowen for supervisor and the same odds on Vaughn for recorder There was report of even money on the democratic state ticket to carry straight. but when a few republicans were informed of it. the dough dis solved into thin slimy batter.
