Political Gossip
PLATFORM OF THE REPUBLICAN
 PARTY OF ARIZONA, 1918

The republican party council duly
 assembled at the capitol in Phoenix on
 the first day of October, 1918, hereby ] adopts the following program:
 The republican party of the state of
 Arizona declares that the employment of the entire man power, and of all
 the physical, financial and industrial | resources of the nation in the prose | cution of the war to a complete vic tory. transcends all other questions be- ! fore the state and the nation. We de- clare that it is the supreme task of the civilized world, to crush the German
 military autocracy until it has ceased | to be a menace. We demand victory so complete and conclusive that it will
 insure civilization against another war | for Teutonic domination.
 We accord to the brave men Of our country who have already laid down | their lives for the cause of liberty, to those who are fighting for us overseas, and to those who are about to go, the honor and gratitude they so richly de- serve, and We hail with pride the splendid victories already achieved by American arms.
 | We are proud of those leaders and members of the republican party in congress who nave given such splen-
 did support to the present administra- ition and have rendered such effective
 aid in the enactment of the great war measures. We deplore the disposition U t, a1ya ha a partisan affair and to capitalize po- | litically war activities. We insist that
 the business of war upon which the
 country is now engaged is the business
 of all the people of this land irrespec-
 tive of political affiliations.
 We condemn the I. w. W. whose Ob- | feet it is to embarrass the nation in | the prosecution of the war. We main | tain that there Is no place in the coun- l try today for those disloyal in act, | teachings or thought. We abhor the 1 tendency among some officials of the state, and candidates for office, to cater to those who are attempting to impede the efficiency of the nation in its present struggle.
 We contend that Hon. Thomas E. Campbell was duly elected governor of Arizona in 1916 by the voters of the state We are convinced that the de- cision of the court, by which he was deprived of his office and the com pensation for his services, was purely a political one and not in accord with the facts in the case. We are satisfied that the great majority of the people of the state of Arizona are convinced that he was legally elected to that of flee and that, in a sense of fair play, they will re-elect him by an over whelming majority
 By the reelection of Governor Campbell, a government that shall be marked by efficiency and economy. by a board and impartial consideration that shall be given to the claims of every interest and of every section and above all, to the loyalty of the na- tional government the times so i'm peratively demand, will be assured to the people of the state.
 We urge in this connection the i'm portance of the election of our entire state ticket and of a legislature that will be in accord with the state ad- ministraticn in it's effort to promote the ends of good government
 We present as our candidate for our representative in congress one whose Americanism is untainted by pacifism; one who has never doubted the righte- ousness of American participation in the war; enc who proves his faith by his work, and who is fighting in France impelled wholly by sense of duty and love of country.
 Thomas Maddock is splendidly qua lifted by character, energy and ability to represent our great state in the house of representatives in times of peace The experience he has gained at one of our gallant and victorious American army especially fits him to render services of a high order at this time both to the state and to the na- tion. We commend him to the pa triotic people of the state in the fullest confidence that his candidacy will meet with their approval and be fol lowed by his election
