We are pleased to say that all are
recovering.
Mrs. r. U. Branch of Phoenix spent
a few days in Douglas last week. Her
many friends were indeed glad to see
her. Call again, Mrs. Branch.
Mrs. H. B. Thompson, who lef
Douglas about two weeks ago to join
her husband in Globe, has returned to
our city. She says that Globe does
not compare with Douglas as a place
in which to live. We pride ourselves
on having the best city in the State
to live in. Good wages for both men
enough to have some of the best peo-
pie on earth as residents of our city.
If you want an ideal place to live,
welcome to Douglas.
On last Thursday morning between
the hours of 10 and IL a. m, Mrs.
Caldwell, who lives at COS Green street
left her house for a few minutes to
go to the market. On returning she
found that burglar had unlocked the
door and entered her house. She dis
covered that $50 in cash had been
taken, 800 in Thrift Stamps, all of
her husbands clothing and several
pieces of her own were missing. The
thief was captured by the officers and
has been placed in the city Jail. He
proved to be a deserter from the U.
S. army and has been lettering around
the city for some time.
We are informed that 1902 people
have died from Spanish influenza
since September 49, We wonder how
long this will continue.

TO THE VOTERS OF MARIcoPA
COUNTY AND OF THE STATE
OF ARIZONA

On account of the prevalence of in
fiuenza, public meetings being prop
erly forbidden, I take this means of
addressing you, and beg of you to
read and give the thought necessary
for proper understanding.
The selection of a Governor this
year and the election of officials in
sympathy with the policies of Wood
row Wilson is most important to ev
cry voter of the State, as a failure
TO elect those in sympathy with the
President and his policies can be
treated by enemies of the Govern
ment as an expression of want of
confidence and sympathy in the pres
ent war policies this Government is
engaged in.
The Republicans, in an endeavor to
elect their candidates, and especially
their Governor, consistently distort
the facts. I want to emphasize to
the voters of this County and State.
unqualifedly, the following:
FIRST: l am the DEMOCRATIC
nominee for the office of Governor,
not the nominee of any faction, and
rot the representative of any person.
If elected l shall not be subject to
the control Of any person, faction or
clique, but will be responsible to the
entire people of the State.
SECOND: I was born and have
been raised in Arizona. Having
grown up with the Territory and
State, my interests and sympathies
are with the State and it's citizens.
If elected its Governor I shall use
every power at my command as it's
Governor to prevent all acts of law
lessness on the part Of every person
or persons. l shall use every power
at my command to suppress the ac-
tivities of the so-called organization
known as the l. W. W., or Industrial
Workers of the World, as their propa-
ganda is such as to interfere with
the cause Of true Democracy, and is
tantamount to disloyalty to the Gov
ernment. If elected the office will
not be place where any law violat-
ors will receive sympathy or COM
fort. 1t will be my purpose to en-
force all laws and to see that all
citizens Of the State are protected in
person and property. shall use all
the power given me as Governor of
the State together with whatever in
huence | may have, to see that any
attempt to injure the person or prop
erty of any citizens meets with the
punishment it deserves.
THIRD: l have endeavored to
study political and economic questions
and in that study have not become a
dreamer or visionary l think l have
made success of my own business
affairs, and assure all voters that, If
elected Governor of this State, shall
do my utmost to give the State an
economical business administration
that will be satisfactory to all its
citizens.
Do not be misled. I am the can
didate Of the DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Of the State of Arizona, and not Of
some other person, and if elected I
shall be the Governor of the State of
Arizona, with the single purpose of
carrying out the principles of true
Democracy, as represented today by
Woodrow Wilson, responsible only to
my conscience, my God, and the citi-
zens of the State of Arizona.

Mesa went over the top in the
Fourth Liberty loan At the close of
business Wednesday evening, the sub
scriptions amounted to $15S,00O The
colored citizens of this city certainly
did their part to help Uncle Sam swat
the Kaiser by purchasing Liberty
bonds. Those who bought bonds of
the Fourth Liberty loan were: ]. j.
Harrington, John Lee and S. L. Dan
iels.
Over a thousand names are on the
Honor Roll at Liberty Loan headquar
ters, corner Main and Mcdowell sts
There were three prominent white
citizens Of this community branded
as yellow slackers for refusing to buy
Bonds of the Fourth Liberty loan. An
effigy of very prominent white clti-
zen was placed conspicuously before
the citizens here at the corner Of
Main and Mcdowell streets. He was
branded a yellow Stacker. His re-
fusal to purchase bonds was based
on religious convictions. He later
subscribed for $500 worth of bonds.
Another effigy of a prominent busi-
ness man and rancher of this section
was also placed on the street corner
in front of Liberty Loan Headquar-
ters. He was painted as yellow
Stacker. A blacksmith employed by
one Of the business men here, lost his
job for making uncivil remarks to
bond solicitors
Now we know who the loyal citi-
zens are and point with pride to the
names of our colored people which
appear on the Honor Roll, while the
finger of scorn and reproach is point
ed at some of our white brothers who
are worth upwards of $25.OOO.
