before the State and the Nation. We declare that ii is the supreme task of the civilized world to crush the 1 German military autocracy until Il has ceased to be menace. We de mand a victory so complete and con elusive 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 arc fighting for us over seas. and to those who arc about to go. the honor and gratitude they so richly deserve, and we Hail with pride the splendid victories already achiev- cd by American arms.
 We are proud of those leaders and members of the Republican party in Congress who have been giving such splendid support to the present ad- ministration and have rendered such effective aid in the enactment Of the great war measures. We deplore the disposition wherever manifest to make the war partisan affair and to capitalize politically war activities. We insist that the business of war upon which the country is now en- gagged is tine business of all the people of this land irrespective of political affiliations.
 We condemn the I. w. w whose object it is to embarrass the nation in the prosecution of the war. We maintain that there is no place in the country today for those disloyal in act, teachings or thought. We abhor the tendency among some officials of the state. and candidates for office. to cater to those who are attempting to impede the efficiency of the na- ton in It's present struggle.
 We contend that Hon. Thomas F. Campbell was duly elected Governor of Arizona in 1916 by the voters of the state. We are convinced that the decision of the court, by which he was deprived of his office and the compensation for his services, was purely ! political one and not in ac- cord 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 office and that in a sense of fair play, they will re-elect him by an overwhelming majority.
 By the reelection of Governor Campbell, q government that shall be marked by efficiency and economy, by a broad and impartial considera- ton that shall be given to the claims of every interest and of every sec ton and. above all, to the loyalty oi the National Government the times so imperatively demand will be as- sured 10 the people of the state.
 We urge in this connection the inn portance of the election of our en- tire state ticket and of legislature that will be in accord with the state administration in its effort to pro- mote 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 righteousness Of American par ticipation in the war: one who proves his faith by his works, and who is fighting in France impelled wholly by sense of duty and love of country.
 Thomas Maddock is splendidly qualified by character, energy and ability to represent our great state in the House of Representative in times of peace. The experience he has gained as one of our gallent and vic torious American Army especially fits him to render services of high or der at this time both to the state and to the nation. We commend him to the patriotic people Of the state in the fullest confidence that his candi- dacy will meet with their approval and be followed by his election.
