 CAMPBELL
(From Saturdays Daily.)

 Tom Campbell, Republican candidate for governor, last night drove home some bitter truths concerning the ma chinations of the l. w. w. in this state which, he pointed out, had re- suited in the necessity for stationing troops in the Jerome district ana which, he declared, was a big issue in the present campaign, despite his Democratic opponents assertion to the contrary.
 Long before the hour fixed for the meeting, the theatre was packed and when the curtain rose, disclosing Yavapai's native son, backed by a representative gathering of prominent men and women of the city, he was given a most hearty welcome to ths old home town.
 E. s. Clark, who presided as chair man, in brief speech, stated he con ceived it a real pleasure to be per mitted to present "the rightful gov ernor of Arizona"
 Is Rightful Governor.
 MT. Campbell" the chairman said, ''has the distinction of being the onl, living ex-governor of Arizona, and the only living next governor of Ari, zona," which statement brought forth loud cheers.
 In beginning, Mir. Campbell stated he felt the occasion was home gath ering, and that he intended to talk as though they were all gathered about the fireplace, discussing issues of im- portance to themselves.
 ''I see little use in trying to tell you people anything about myself" con- tinued Mir. Campbell You all know me: have known me for years. Nor shall I indulge in any personalities. But can tell you that the other side Is indulging in personalities of thG most bitter kind.
 Points Out I. w. w. Menace
 The chairman has said, and right fully, that the keynote of this cam paign is the winning of the war. All the rest is chores, and that is the way I look at it. He also referred to the menace within our midst, which my distinguished opponent declares is not an issue. It is an issue, for the l. W.. w. of Arizona and the United States and of the world are a menace to youi well-being and to our well-being as a state and nation, just as much as the armed enemies We are today fighting.
 And they are in greater numbers b in Yavapai county today than m any other county in the state. l have list of several hundred members Of this organization who are today in Yavapai county, many right here lh Prescott. I know whereof 1 speak, and I think 1 know them better than any other man in the state, save their own members and, possibly, the pres ent executive of Arizona, for 1t be- came my business. while I was yout chief executive, to find out these things"
 The speaker then touched upon the well-lnown tactics of the ''Wobblies' and brought forth enthusiastic ap- plause when he declared:
 Would Outlaw Organization.
 And I say to you that if l do be- come your governor, on the very first page of my recommendations for legislation will be one asking for a law to outlaw this organization
 Mir. Campbell then went into the history of his experiences with the I. w. w., beginning with the strike in the cotton industry Of the Salt River valley, and extending Oh through the Jerome strike and up to the time when he was euchered out of his rightful office by the decision of a partisan court. He told of his meeting with Grover H. Perry, a lead CT of the "Wobblics" and with Frank Little. who was afterwards hanged in Dakota: of how, in his conferences with Perry and an l. w. w. commit tee, the "Wobbiies" openly said they would be satisfied with nothing less than the taking over of all property for "the benefit of the workers" Of how they admitted their only purpose ir demanding a 6-hour work day was to give them more time to spread their propaganda for 4-hour day, and so on. until they came into possession of all means of production and in dustry: of how. when war was de- clared and the "Wobblies" threaten. ed to tic up war industries, he asked Perry if he did not realize the danger his country faced, and of how Perry replied that we care nothing for the squabblc between the capitalists oi Germany and the capitalists of Wall street." and of how. finally, he was called upon by the government to give tcstimony at the Chicago trial of the I. w. w. members. when l0l were convicted and sent to the peni- tent;ary, including six who had pre- viously been active in this state.
 Encouraged By Hunt.
 "The point of this is that your gov ernor. Mir. Hunt, makes light of this organization, and says they are neith- CT a menace nor an issue. l want to say to you, and l can prove it, that Hunts association with the |. w. W. organization and its members en courages them in their lawless propa- ganda They are responsible for practically all our labor troubles, ana they decidedly are an issue in this campaign, and will be an issue until
