The Mooney Reprieve

Gov Stephens repreve of Thomas Mooney, delaying
his death sentence for few months, will not satisfy the
demands of justice
Justice demands trial for Mooney. It does
not deman0 his pardon, tho that would be thousand
Zines Just than his hanging.
In a nutshell, the situation is this MONEYS con-
vcton is under cloud There is today too much doubt
concerning his innocence guilt To that doubt,
pne way the other, trial should be granted.
What possible objection if justice is to be served,
can there BE to this?

VICTORY BOYS AND
GIRLS DID FINEST
WORK IN CAMPAIGN

In the report published last Thurs
day morning the amount of money
raised in Maricopa county in the United
War Work campaign was given.
The figures showing the total amount
of money raised in this county were
correct, but in the segregation the
Victory Boys and Girls were not given
credit for the proper amount which by
their splendid work alone was raised.
To these boys and girls are due
more credit than to any other single
organization that pook part in this
campaign.
The total number Of girls in Mari
copa county who subscribed to this
fund is 1904, giving a total raised by
them OF $3.066.05.
The Victory Boys who likewise sub
scribed were in the number of TIA
raising the total amount of $2,572.64
the total amount subscribed by both
boys and girls being $5,63S.69.
One apparent feature of this report
is that the Victory Girls outdid the
Victory Boys. the former exceeding the
amount raised by the boys by $493.41
The spirit shown by the boys and
girls and also the other workers was
one of the finest things displayed in
the carpaign just closed so VIGOROUSLY
and this report is published with de.
sire to give these boys and girls the
credit they deserve.
Special mention should be made and
credit given to the boys Of Gilbert. Al.
though Gilbert is a very small place
yet rs boys in that district subscribed
total of $377.50.
