PEOPLE OF ARIZONA WANT
 THE TRUTH.

Never before in the history of Arizona have the people been so universally interested in single subject as at the present time, in their desire to learn the truth about contest proceedings for governor.
 Ten years will not efface from the memories of fair minded men, irrespective of party or of preference, the cowardly and dastardly attempts of the daily papers of Phoenix in their eff forts to suppress the news, dis seminate untruths and to stir up hatred. About the first of the year their efforts were united in attempts to incite riot, and in
The border vidette., 1917-01-27

their zeal, much damage was done to the state by scattering falsehood to the outside world.
 The Messenger being publish ed weekly has supplied the truth in every particular, but with two big dailies, long abolished, it took time before the people awakened to the situation.
 No armed guards were ever kept at the capitol,n usurpation of authority was ever attempted by the governor and the contest, while retarded by dilatory tac- has been conducted under stipu- lation and according to law. The mandamuS proceedings before the supreme court were begun and carried out by agreement. Gov. Hunt remained in the office because he thought, and the re- view of ballots show he has a clear majority of 147 votes; be- sides for the purpose of secur- ing certificate of election, Mir. Campbell's attorneys agreed to two things: To hasten the count of ballots, which they did; also to try to oust the governor by mandamus proceedings, he agree ing to answer to the same with in 48 hours after receiving no tice and citations of law on which the claim is based.
 Early this week, Monday at 5 o'clock, inspection of remnants gathered from the various boards of supervisors under order of superior court and at request of Mr. Campbelrs attorneys, was stopped short because Mir. Camp bell refused to give bond for costs. It was all right to heap costs on the governor by delay but when their turn came to put up. they had different tune had cold feet.
 These odds and ends were spoiled ballots, certifica tes of re giStratiOn, etc., remnants in the offices of the various boards of supervisors.
 = The ballots in the hands of county treasurers were complet- ed on Monday, January 8. Con- test action is set for January 25 in superior court.
 Senator Ives was ready for trial as soon as the ballots were all inspected and on January 8 he offered to begin next day.
 Judge Sloan and his associates asked to draw more cards, evi dently knowing full we'll their hand was no good. They asked for the spoiled ballots and rem nants, hoping to gain time but when the expense of their re- quest was chalked up to Mir. Campbell, he quit like a steer in the road. Messenger.

When the General Council was

When the General Council was
organized in 1913, it was with the
authority and support of the chiefs
who were refused seats in the
council at Demidji. Not only did
the original constitution of the
General Council provide that the
chiefs would be entitled to seats in
the annual meetings Of the council
without being elected, but that
they should also receive compen.
sation for whatever assistance they
might be called upon to render the
tribe. The action of the council
in refusing to scat them as dele
gates would lay it open to the
