Mr. CampbeI,s Announcement

In laying down the platform on which he seeks the republican nomination for governor Hon. Thomas F. Campbell appeals to the good citizenship of Arizona Naturally any candidate for office who comes before the people next fall will declare his loyalty to the country and his sympathy with it's war aims. Mir Campbell has the advantage over other candidates who may yet enter the field in having proved his uncompromising loyalty during his brief term of service as governor.
 His statement against the I. W. W. is plain and unmistakeabe, but Mir. Campbell goes beyond mere denunciaton of the actual membership of the I. W. W. There are I. w. W.'s who not members of the organization and affiliated with it. but who sympathize with it and who believe in and advocate the methods the I. w. W. practice-ob structon sabotage and appeals to class prejudice We have them in Arizona; they everywhere They may denounce the l. w. w. bitterly organiza- ton but they are none the less adherents of I. w. w. principles All such persons under the con demnation of Mir. Campbell
 Another thing, though it is properly not al luded in his is the fact that the people of Arizona should be given opportunity to say whether their will expressed at the election two years ago was correctly interpreted.
 Mir. CamDbells announcement has the right ring, straight ht-forward, clean-cut and to the point His Americanism is of the 100 per variety, the kind we need in Arizona.

Open and Above board

The secretary of war is ingenious else some body guilty of indiscretion in repeating what he told the senate committee military affairs day before yesterday MT. Baker was represented to have said in support of his request for legislation giving the president blanket authority call as many men into the military service might be needed that what aimed was the psychological effect of such legislation the Germans; that they would be much more impressed if they believed that the whole man-power of the United States was to be launched against them than if they knew that this man-power to be limited three four or any fixed number of millions of men.
 If psychology is to be employed against the Ger think that the force of it will be somewhat dissipated by the publicity which has been given of the impending psychological campaign, by an n- discreet correspondent. But do think that the Germans are good subjects for psychological attack. They are rather thck-headed and are affected only by physical force, such cannon airpanes and great bodies of men in person and not merely potential men, We have wasted a great deal of psychology on the German people without perceptibe results.
 The legislation asked for should be promptly enacted. With the proposed power in the hands of the president, there would be called out than will be needed. It would much better to put this reserve authority into the hands of the presi- dent than to require him to go congress whenever new levy of troops is required And these troops to scare the Germans but to hammer them for only by exercise of the utmost force or, as the president put it, Force to the utmost will the war be won

Property in News

The controversy between the Associated Press and the International News service, whatever else may result from it. will leave the disclosure that notwithstanding the claims of the latter to superiof ity it's tens of thousands of miles leased wire its representatives not only every capital but in every nook and of tho world, the Hearst service is after all, dependent upon it's rival, the Associated Press. With the free use of that agency anybody could set up service. He would need nothing but subscribers to his service.
 As pointed out by Mir. Frederick w. Lehman for the Associated Press before the United States su- court yesterday by of the difference in time in New York could serve subscribers in the west by of early Associated Press papers, quickly the Associated Press itself could serve it's members in the same region He could offer bet ter terms for doing it for he would be at expense in reaping where the Associated Press had sown. He would have expensive cable tolls to pay and enormous salary list of r-fung correspondents 10 meet.
 The federal courts have enjoined the Hearst ser vice from making this of Associated Press news Mr. Lehman makes point of the the Hearst service would be deprived by the continuation of the injunction, of nothing that belongs to it. It would be robbed of nothing it had earned.
 There is theory that first not unrea- sonable that the Associated Press loses by publca-
 on it's property rights in the news it has gathered and paid for. That may be admitted but then we may ask, when has publication taken place? Not merely publication in the eastern Associated Press papers which the street from hour to two hours earlier than middle western or western papers, Publication is not complete until the westernmost of the Associated Press papers have had an oppor- tunity to publish After that the of the Asso- ciated Press belongs whoever wants to use it for any purpose whatever.
 The outstanding facts in this case are that the Associated Press is injured in it's western member ship by the the Hearst service makes of early Associated Press and that the action to prevent this of the news will take nothing from the Hearst service except what 1t would gain if left un- disturbed, at the loss of the Associated Press So far concerns the western membership of the As socated Press. the Hearst might as well se- cure access to the Associated Press by burglary other criminal means before it had been printed eastern Associated Press papers and then papers.
 The Associated Press is a thing of membership; it is not corporation conducted for profit it de- clares dividend; it has nothing to be divided ex- cept the expense of serivce to it's members The business of the association is to protect its members this case only the western members threatened and need protection. and it for affordng them protection that this action brought

It would be hard to imagine more beautiful combination or better arrangement of the coors. Besides-it is OUR flag! It represents life and liberty to us.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Dairymen's Associations Sidt

The Dairymen's Assoclation's Side To the Newspapers:
 Inasmuch as you have given space to Armour & Co.,, through their repre- sentative, MT. J. E. Cook, who has used it for the apparent purpose of flaying few individuals at the expense of the Maricopa County Dairymen's associa- tion, we. the latter's committee, re- spectfully ask that you accord us space in which to defend our position.
 It has never been the sense of the Dairymen's association to enter poli- tics, engage in personalities. or seek information for sinister purposes. On the contrary, it has been our desire to deal frankly, honestly and openly, without prejudice for or against any one, to the end that at least a large majority of the dairymen of the Salt River valley might find some means of continuing the production of one of the most important food essentials. | We have been very fortunate in our association with MT. Fred J. Elliott, state conservation chairman. who has at all times displayed a marked fair ness for everyone concerned, and the camouflage of Mir. Cook in defense of Armour & Co. seems pitiful in it's ab- surdity. We doubt most emphatically the sincerity of Mir. Cook, where he pretends to see biased motives in the attitude of the food administrator.
 The meeting of last Saturday, re- ferred to by MT. Cook, was called pur- suant to an order from Washington and for the sole purpose of discover ing ways and means of conserving the dairy industry of the Salt River Val ley, without prejudice or favor to eith- CT producer, manufacturer, dealer oI consumer. The fact that this was los sight of by MT. Armour's representa- tive certainly precludes all chance fol harmony and made futile the attempt of our government to bring about co. operation between producer and manu. facturer.
 The dairymen have at all times beer willing to meet the manufacturer: upon any reasonable grounds, backed by proper evidence and not statement. prepared by expert accountants. The, went into this meeting last Saturda. prepared to discuss all points perti nent to the question at hand, but wer, promptly given to understand by Nil

Cook that Armour & Co. entertained no such intention.
 The reason that other manufacturers were not called upon at this meeting was because the entire allotted time was consumed by the elusive tactics of Mir. Cook.
 We wish that the public might know the absolute facts in this situation and, inasmuch as this is a national issue, we challenge Armour & Co. to

Put your jars in the wash boiler or some
vessel with tight-fitting top. Have the
water an inch or two over the top of
jars and keep 1t that way all through
the process. When it begins to boil
begin to count time. If the peaches were
soft leave them in sixteen minutes; If
firm. twenty-five. Remove, finish sealing
and let cool. If peaches do not shed
their skin readily peel them without
blanching.
Apples are washed, pared. quartered
