THAT CARMICHAEL LETTER

Douglas international: This paper IS glad that Norman Carmichael took the occasion to write the governor Ol the subject of what occurred al Clifton and Morenci in 1915 and compare 1t to the very mild affair at Bisbee on July F last year. It was duty well performed by Mr. Carmichael as 1t brings to the minds of the citizens of the state the inconsistency Of the gov erncr in the treatment of the two events.
 The governor. in his message punched the mining men of the state as a class of ''profiteering pdtriOteers' at a time when they are doing every rossible thing within their power co assist the government in winning vic fCry in the war with the Huns. These mining men have abundant material Pt hand for such replies as made by MT. Carmichael and they should not hesitate 10 defend themselves in the public press against the islander heaped upon them by the governor Of the state.

100 PER CENT AMERICAN

Tombstone PTospector: Three city elections held in Arizona were con ducted cn the lines O. Americanism; Jerome, Globe and Bisbee. Citizens tickets in each city made the night suuarely on the issue of 100 per cent Americanism and the result was d complete victory for the All American tickets in each city. Strange to say, these three cities were the places where last year deportations tooN place and in each instance those seek ing office or those backing such tick cts were more or less vitally inter ested in the deportations. Only one conclusion can be drawn from the re- suits of yesterdays elections, and that is that Arizona has decided that !. w. W.'ism and all other ObstrucuonisLs to winning the war have seen thelr best day in Arizona and the hysteria Of radicalism has passed. History in Arizona is rapidly making, but not to tine satisfaction of those who tend to un-American principles.

AS MAN TO MAN
THIS MILK MAN
 w AS WE A R Y

The milk man paused on the news paper ans door step. A burst of wind blew a bucket of the back porch and envelOped everything in a cloud of dust. That wind is never weary" observed the newspaper man.
 No, but it is about the only thing in the district that is not weary" re- piled the milk man in a voice that was neither glad nor gay. Ding my milkpaiig. but this wind has blown for forty days and nights and it has never stopped for a minute. I've lived here quite a spell and l never saw the wind blow so long at a time before"
 The newspaper man looked interest ed and sympathetic and the purveyOr of milk proceeded to get several things of his chest that galled his proud spirit on its way through this vale of tears. He looked through a glass darkly at the landscape of his native shire. Besides those enemies, the wind and the dust, he had to con tend with the constantly increasing prices of cattle feed. and, even when ne mad raised the large sum of money for the small amount of feed, he could not always buy it in the open market because it was closed on account of lack of visible supply
 Again, his little fiyver had been crowded of the road the day before by a big plutOcrat car and partly wrecked and as a result his garage bill for the ncnth exceeded his revenues from milk
 lt was sad tale. mates, as that milk man told it. But at that he was game. After he had strewn his mis- fortunes from the door step to the nearest mountain range. he grinned and said: "Oh, well, II will all come right oy and by. Let the wind do it's worst; I'll be around with the milk tomorrow just the same
 The newspaper man went into the house Gnc looked out of the window and saw the milk man spit on his hands and crank his fiivver and drive away il a gust of wind like a yawl in a gale at sea. And during the rest of the day he did not make one murmur about the wind that was never weary. And To, today there is no wind. only the calm and balm of the mountain air in summer and the brilliant sunlight and the same old mountain background to the picture.

GOVERNOR IS RESPONSIBLE

Phoenix Gazette: Concerning w. E.. CleaIy, whom he saw fit to honor with an appointment shortly after he was restored to office by the court decision and who is now in Chicago as one Of
 counsel for defense of the 112 I. w.
 W. now on trial in the federal court,
 the governor says that the appoint ment carried with it no emoluments, and I do not, therefore, consider that my duty to the taxpayers necessitates my dictating his private movements"
 Governor Hunt, your appointment and retention Of w. B. Cleary in d position of honor is not a matter 10 be considered from a financial stand point and the fact that it takes no money from the state treasury (hOg- ever significant that may be to you) is no consideration whatever to the decent citiZenry of this state. He stands as your appointee and the fact is that you appointed him with full knowledge of all that he is and all that he stands for. He stands as theech1m- piOn of the l. w. w. and had so pro clalmed himself publicly before he was appointed by you. He carries the rcd card of the I. w. w. on his person at all times and does not hesitate to dis. play it. He does display it and has dis played it in the state capitol since you appointed him to this position of rCBor. As counsel for the l. w. w. on {: ial in Chicago he is a conspicuous figure before the nation and while in this conspicuous position before the
 ation he holds a commission of honor from the governor of Arizona. You cannot dismiss your responsibility for w. B. Cleary on the ground that he is not costing the taxpayers anything. He is costing the citizenry o, Arizona a great deal in the way of self-respeet and there are other things that the real manhood and wOmanhoOd of Ari- zona hold dearer than money.

ELECTION HAD A MEANING

Douglas International. The city cleo tiOn held in Bisbee on Monday resulted in a clean sweep for the nOn-partisan ticket over the so-called democratic ticker. The non-partisan ticket was promoted and carried to success by an organization of citizens who believed that in these times of war when all who desire a victory over the Hun should lay aside all politics and every thing else that would tend to prevent a perfect coalition of democrats, re- publicans and these of all other patTi- Ctic political leanings. A meeting was held by prominent democratic and re publican leaders in Bisbee and it was decided to choose a ticket to have charge of the city government, regard less Ci politics; as a result of this meeting good men of both parties were put onward for mayor and members of the council Mayor Erickson was ,amed to head this non-partisan ticket because of his splendid work in the ;rying days of Bisbee last summer which culminated in the deportation of the I. W. w strikers who were threatening to ruin industrial condi- tions in the Warren district. Erickson was elected by a big majority and every candidate on his ticket was sue cessful.
 This result shows that in Bisbee there is 9 spirit of loyalty to those who stand for industrial prosperity and who can be depended on to see 10 it that protection shall be provided for all who are pursuing their rights to seek and perform labor there for whcmsoever they please. This elec- ten cannot be taken in any other light than an endorsement of the ac- tion taken last year in purifying the industrial condition of the Warren dis trict Bisbee is all right and always has been.

THE WRATH OF THE WARREN
 DISTRICT

Tucson Citizen: Whether they feared that their money would be tam ed if it passed through the hands of Governor Hunt to the Red Cross or that the precious White House wool would be soiled if it came by way Oi the Arizona chief executive, the mem bers O. the Warren District Conner ciaI club who formed a syndicate ana outbid Governor Hunt about seventy 10 one have wired the head of the Reu Cross asking that they be not forced to conduct any negotiations WhateNer through the governor.
 Their wrath is the outSrowth pl Hunts denunciatiOn of everything ana everybody in the Warren district eA- cept the |. w W.'s in his message 10 the legislature and while they nave gone out of their way to humiliate the chief executive. they are probably justified in their indignation at tAe treatment they received at ms hahdS-
 The language which Hunt used m characterizing them is about as nasty as is found in the district. He even stated that ,ne wives and children of the deported men were left to a terrible fate in their hands. He pig turcd them as monsters in human form. His words fitted from l.5O0 to 1000 citizens of the Warren distric'' who participated in the deportatlons' although only twenty are indicted Tor the alleged violations of the federal laws

not have been weighed carefully. But still, when one pays more than thousand dollars a pound for wool, one wants full measure, and is surely entitled to it. The Review would suggest that Gov Hunt order an investigation in this matter of short weight in the wool. It is his duty as governor of all the state to see that every city in the state gets what is coming to 1t. In the past the governor has always tried to see that Bisbee got all that was coming, but not in wool

no wonder that it goes against the grain 10 do business through an Ofti. cial who has been so bitter in his de nunciation of them.
 NO ENCOURAGEMENT FOR HUNT
 Fl PasO Times: The results of the eelctions in Bisbee, Jerome and other Arizona towns where the elements sympathizing with the l. W. W. agi- tators were overwhelmingly defeated are calculated 10 afford little consOla- tion to Governor Hunt and his friends In Bisbee, especially, where two of the men elected to the city council are said to have had something to do with the driving out of the undesirables last July. the result may be considered a slap direct at the governor who. in his recent message to the special session, seized the opportunity of lambasting these very men.
 That the lambasting did not make a very big hit. even in the legislature. is indicated by the passage by almost unanimous vote in both houses Of the resolution calling upon all state off cials, high and low. to denounce the L w. w. He may regard them as a bunch of muclFabused woTkingmen, but it is becoming increasingly evident that the governors attitude is not that of the people of Arizona nor of their elected representatives in the law-mak- ing department of the state govern ment Arizona has suffered in reputa- tion and in prestige as the result of the activity of lawless agitatoTs and anarchists, but most people are now becoming convinced that much of the criticism heaped upon the state was undeserved. The people of Arizona are patriotic and lawabiding-they have been forced at times to take somewhat unusual and drastic steps to purge their state of the idle and the vicious rabble which threatened its peace and prosperity. They have taken these steps and the result mas been good. What a pity it is they have not as yet found means 10 curb the activities and put the soft pedal on the utterances of the gentleman who presides in the executive office MT. George w. P. Hunt.

slssEE SENTIMENT THE SAME

Douglas International. That was sure some rap at the governor. in- cluded in the dispatch sent tO Wash ington yesterday by the Warren Dis trict Commercial club regarding Bis bees bid for the wool donated by Pres ident Wilson for the Red Cross. The bid was more than S3,500 and took the wool. This result was telegraphed direct to the Red Cross manager a1 Washington with the explanation that the citizens of the Warren district did not desire to send the report through '"e cffice of the governor Of Arizona. The message to Washington said that after the niystqtements made by the governor regarding the citizens of the district in his message to the legisla- ture the people there desired 10 have no dealings with him of any kind. The governor by his message. surely got in bad with Bisbee. When he de- nounced those who took part in the deportation Of the wobblies last year he was denouncing a very larze ma iority of the good citizens O Bisbee and the district. The sentiment in Bisbee has not undergone any change since the event of July r, 1917, as shown by this message and by the result of the city election there last Monday when some of those indicted for the deportation were elected to the city council. All those elected were more or less interested in the great drive" and they are defending in 9 proper manner. If the message sent to Washington by the Commercial club shall bring the attention of the governors message to President Wilson it will no doubt accomplish good purpose in thus the coarse bilingssate Of the Arizona executive.

SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
 A FRIEND

A le.-ec came to this newspaper man the other day from an old and dear Kansas friend bearing the pOstmarS of Camp Merritt, New Jersey. We are waiting orders to sail the letter ran. and 1 thought of you today and am sending a last message before We go dOwl to the sea in shlps. All the good times We have had together in the old home town flash across my mind today as l stand on the Jersey shore ard watch the might of Uncle Sam gathered here to launch against the Hun
 Ah, he thought of the newspaper man. did this brave. fine kanses friend V hile waiting to sail to France. And, ai:e- all, to win and hold friend and to have him think of you across time and distance, is the greatest thing in the world. A friends kind thoughts and desire to have you with him in his times of danger and delight, these are the most cherished things. His regard fortifes your faltering line of self esteem. His pride in you warns the cold indifference of the rest of the world. He fOrgets your faults and re- members only some single virtue, and absence Cnly makes this tiny flame of your one good point burn the brighter before his kind and loyal eyes.
 And ne Is going to France, this friend. To that wonderful wayward. magic, sOrely pressed land of France. Going with hundreds of thousands of other American boys, with smile on his lips and an eager light in his eyes. He gage up a medical practice he had been eight years in building; gave it up gladly to volunteer and go where he might play finer. better part in the world.

POUer Of the Press
 Applied and MisappHed

Arthur Brisbane, the famous editor, was asked by the Mississippi Press Asso- ciation to send a word of advice to the editors of the small dailies and the weeklies of that state, and he gave them column, most of it devoted to the appeal to organ ize into close union and stick together and make the public generally appreciate the value and cost of newspaper space. Strong and true advice. Parts of it are re- produced here in the hope that it will en- courage Arizona editors to form some kind of association for their own protection in these days of high cost of production and increasing demands for free publicity.
 Do what the thirteen States of the Union did in George Washington's day Form a national union, mean 1t. and stick to it.
 Establish central bodies of control which among newspapers shall be in each State what the legislature Is, and in the nation what Congress is.
 Editors need agreement as to the ad- vertising value of their space-most of which IS now almost given away-consol- idated buying of paper and ink and united action to make public men and advertisers realize their importance.
 It seems late to say: In union there is strength, or United we stand, divided we fall.
 Yet it Is a fact that the country press lacks strength, lacks the dignity, the profit, the respect to which it is justly entitled and it Is also fact that the editors do not stand fo- +l,. of Ill l,cl- union absolutely.
 Conventions in every State, attended by editors of all newspapers in the State, should protect local interests and devise methods of making business profitable to the advertiser and the publisher
 And great national conventions of the local newspapers, addressed by the most important men in the nation, and looked upon as the most important gatherings in the nation, should be held often enough to keep the editorial associations of the differ ent States in touch with each other
 The smaller newspapers of the coun- try suggest now a pile of bricks thrown loosely and carelessly upon the ground - you have seen such pile
 The different journalistic bricks should be cemented into solid wall great struc- ture of public opinion, public power, in dustrial, commercial promotion, giving to every editor of power and character the prosperity, the rank to which he is entitled and eliminating the others
 Local editors, united organized would control the buying power, political power, and the educational power of the country.
