Writes Chairman Stoneman He Takes Responsibility in Not Considering Another
 Nominee for Governor
ABSURD SAYS

ABSURD SAYS
 The only development yesterday ir he gubernatorial tangle was the fol he democratic nominee. to Chairman George J. Stoneman of the democratic tate central committee:
 September 20, 1918. Geo. J. Stoneman.
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My dear Mr. Stoneman:
 l am advised through your letter or the 18th instant, copy of which appeared in a local paper, of your decision that the democratic state central committee need not be con- vened at this time to consider the nomination of a democratic candi- date Tor governor, provided that I shall personally assume all respon- sibility for your action in refrain ing from the issuance of a call to the committeeman. To your sug- gested disposition of this matter I cheerfully and confidently acceie, knowing, as 1 do, that the demo- cratic voters of Arizona. who hon. ored me with the nomination as candidate for governor in the re- cent primary, will expect me to de- fend the trust which they reposed Tn me, and to be the party'S stand ard bearer in the campaign now beginning. Such responsibility, therefore, as attaches to your with holding of d call for immediate meeting of the democratic central committee is assumed wholly by myself with the understanding that l alone shall be ansWerable to the democratic party of Arizona for the deferring of meeting un- til the new central committee now being organized, shall be convened in accordance with law. This pro cedure. l heartily believe, will re- fleet the wishes of Arizona's de- mocracy and will best serve the interests of the democratic party.
 Campaign Thunder"
 In reaching this decision, with out any hesitancy whatever, I act with full knowledge of the statu- tory and constitutional provisions cited in your letter, none of which l regard as applicable to myself as candidate for governor. It is. rather my certain conviction, sup ported by the opinions of able at torneys, and reinforced by many judicial decisions, which they can cite if occasion requires. that I am. undoubtedly and unquestionably eligible to the governorship of Ari- zona, if l receive a majority of the votes cast at the November cleo tion.
 To conclude. cannot regard the far-fetched sophistries of the Re- publican central committee regard ing my alleged disqualification as being ether than an absolute ab- surdity calculated, without doubt, to serve as campaign thunder ,'' but having no other useful pur- pose.
 Thanking you for your kind O. operation, I am

Mill Men, Cotton Raisers and
 Cattle Men Discuss Situ- ation at Meeting And Seek
 End to Serious Deadlock

Prospects for an end of the absolute deadlock in the cotton seed situation seem favorable as result of the meet ing this afternoon between representa- tives of the interested factions. held in the assembly room of the Water Users ducers, representatives of the oil mills and liberal sprinkling of cattlemen were present, and heated discussion of the whole situation resulted. The meeting was called by George Smallev executive secretary of the Ar iZona Food Administration. F. H. Par ker presided as chairman, and H. M. l Kennedy was selected as secretary for the meeting.
 MT. Smalley opened the meeting hy presenting statistics to show that in every way the state" of Arizona was more than doing her part in every movement for both conservation an1 production of those things urgently needed for winning the war. using this as an introduction to the business of the meeting, the consideration of the cotton seed situation.
 Government Sets Price
 He then read communication from the cotton division of the Food Admin istration, setting forth the prices set so far. to be paid for cotton seed, he spread, or expense and profit, to be al- lowed the oil mills.
 The price named, to be paid to the producer by the mill people for their cotton seed, is s70 in carload lots. and s61 in less than carload lots. This is based on the extraction of fl gallons of oil from the seed per ton. and the mar keting of it at s1.31H per gallon, on the sale of the hullS at S20 per ton, the cotton seed meal at s53 per ton. 3nd the sale of the linters at $4.67 per hundred.
 T. w. McDevitt of the Phoenix Cot ton Oil company immediately took eX- ception to the whole schedule seconded and supported by H. B. Atha of the Ar izona Egyptian Cotton company They contended that the s70 price was so high that the mills stood to take on a prima facia loss to do business under this rate. and that they therefore would refuse to buy a pound of cotton seed for milling purposes at the price set
 Market at Deadlock
 The government tells us to sell our hulls at s2e," said Mir McDevitt 'l wish we could. But the fact is that the feeders will not pay more than S10 They tell us to sell the oil at s1.31A but our only markets within shipping distance are Los Angeles and Fl Paso and we have to pay the freight, while our California competitors have the same price and have no freight to pay for their refinery is located right by their mills. As to linters which we are supposed to sell at s467 a hundred, ny last years linters is still in my ware house, and have not been able to s. it at all.'
 Mir. Atha called attention to the fac; that selling price of S53 had been sci for meal here, while s51 was the pric, in California, and suggested that the l price should be the same.
 Change Suggested In order to equalize the business haz. ) ards. the oil men then proposed that 2 recommendation be made to the foot

USED HIS "EXPOsE"
 ID FURTHER TRIM SUIT CLUB VICTIMS

There probably will not be much left for the creditors of the Phoenix Tailor ing company of the stock of suitings in the possession of Justice Wheeler seized by the officers after J. D. Lynch, the head of the company, fled from town, jumping his bail on the charge of conducting a lottery in the management of his "suit club"
 Though the value of the stock is roughly estimated at 5000, it is certain no such sum could be realized from the sale of it. Claims against the stock amounting to more than 5000 have been pooled and an effort will be made to throw it into the bank ruptcy court. Most of these are the claims of members of the suit club and other claimants are appearing daily and almost hourly.
 Among the letters received yester- day from out of town members was on containing a suggestion for way out of the difficulty. The writer said: T am also a victim to the tune of ST. I send you my card or book showing the credits. And what disposition are you going to take in the premises? Did you get their books in the round up The books should show all the credits. think you should hire a tailor and make our clothes for us. Be a sport and play the game out"
 It turns out that the proceedings against Lyunch for running a lottery was turned by him to his advantage As soon as he was convicted he wrote the members who had been paying on weekly installments, saying that fea- ture of the enterprise had been aban- doned in deference to the law, and he invited all to come in. pay up ir full and get their suits. Many O them did so. greatly increasing the revenue of the faker.
