ATTENTION DEMOCRATS.

Special attention should be given by democratic voters of Arizona at the coming election to the non partisan offices as they appear on the ballot. These offices, including the state tax commission, and the superior and the supreme judgeships, are not placed with the other offices on the ballot but are under the designation of non partisan, and there is nothing to indicate what the party affiliation of the vari- ous candidates for these offices may be.
 A great many voters in past years, desiring to vote a straight Democratic ticket, have thought it sufficient to merely mark a cross at the top of the ballot to indicate that they favored all Democratic candidates on the list. Such a practice will leave the tax commission and the judgeships out of the vote all together, and for this reason the attention of the public is called to the necessity of marking @ cross beside the names of candi- dates for noE-partisan offices, whom tte voter wishes to be elected.
 The Democratic candidates for the tax commission are Frank Luke and E. A. Hughes; and for the supreme court, Judge A. G. McAlister.

PRESIDENT WILSON SAYS:

Those who do not care to tell you the truth about the League of Nations tell you that Article X of the Covenant of the Lea que would make it possible for other nations to lead US into war, whether we will try it by our own independent judgment or not. This is absolutely false. There is nothing in the Cove nant which in the least inter- feres with or impairs the right of Congress to declare war or not declare war, according to it's own independent judgment, as our Cons stitution provides.
 Those who drew the Cove nant of the League were careful that it should contain nothing which interfered with or impair ed the constitutional arrange ments of any of the great na- tions which are to constitute it's mem bers. They would have been amazed and indignant at the things that are now being ignorantly said about this great and sincere document.

LANDS FOR Ex-SOLDIERS.

Effosts are being made in Phoenix to have the tract of land available for irrigation in the Parker Indian reservation, turned over to Arizona for allot- ment to ex- service men.
 It was previously suggested that the land in question be opened for agricultural pur poses, and that preference be given the ex soldiers who desire to take up farming for a liveli- hood.
 The information comes in a letter to the Morgan McDermott Post, at Tucson, from D. A. Lit tie. departmental adjutant for the state.
 Adjutant Little states that the Frank Luke Post Number 1, of the American Legion at Phoe nix is already working to get the legislative candidates lined up in favor of opening the land to eX soldiers.
 He suggests that the best plan for handling the situation is through the bill drawn up by the Frank Luke Post, which calls for the lands being turned over to the state for allotment.

RE-RECORDING BRANDS.

The stupenduous task of re- recording brands as required by an act passed by the last legis- lature has been completed, ac- cording to Ed. Stephens, secre- tary to the livestock sanitary board. Mir. Stephens stated that a record of all the brands in use in the state were recorded in a book that had been placed in the hands of the publisher and which would be released not later than November 1.
 The re recording of brands cut down the number in this state from 23,OOO to 5000, said Mr. Stephens, who requested all brand owners who have not received their brand certificates to communicate with his office.
 Certificates mailed out were returned to the office of the live stock sanitary board and if the proper addresses are forwarded the certificates will be mailed to the owners.

VOTE FOR THE LEAGUE.

Perhaps the greatest question confron ting the people of the world will be settled by the United States at the coming election.
 The League of Nations, is on trial for life. The jury is the United States and the verdict will be rendered on the second day of November.
 We are now at the cross roads. One road leads to peace, pros perity and happiness, to a time when international disputes will be settled by arbitration and conflict will be no more; the other to wars and rumorS of wars, suspicion, hatred and a continuance of the policy which plunged the world into four years Of carnage ard blOodshed.

Surveys for the new road by means of which Tucson hopes to have a direct automobile route to the Gulf of California, are now in progress, according to Dr. c. A. Thomas, a mem Der of the Pima county highway con- mission.
 The present survey is now be ing made along that section of the Ajo road from the Robles ranch to the border, and provid ing the assurances of the resid ents of the Altar district, that an appropriation will be forth coming from the Mexican gov ernment to rebuild the road from the border to the gulf, direct auto route to the Gulf of Cali fornia will be available to Tue sonians. The trip, it is said, could be made in between six and eight hours, with either Port LoboS or Port Libertad as a de- situation.
 The surveyors are now camp ing at the M. J. King ranch.
 For the 48 miles of road ne- cessary from the Robles ranch to the border, a bond issue of $11O,OCO was sold, and it is un- derstood that the work just be- gun will continue until the road has been completed. While no official promise has been receiv- ed from the de facto government of Mexico that the balance of the road would be rebuilt, Pima county authorities have been assured by the prominent resi- dents of the Altar district that the necessary funds could be secured as soon as the road had been completed to the border.
 The road is important to the people of the Altar district as we'll as to Tucson, because Tue son is the logical point of pur-. chasing supplies for the people in the district numbering about 10000.

OUR STATE LANDS.


 present state land system of Arizona, the Der of state land holders in the state has been increased at a highrate of percentage. The day has pass ed when twenty or thirty cattle men can control the hugh areas of state lands in Arizona, and keep out the farmer and the homeSteader.
 In Cochise county alone, ac- cording to figures compiled by the Douglas Interna tional, the number of cattle owners leasing state lands has increased during the past year from 100 to 254, showing that the operation of the law is encouraging the cat tie industry, rather than dis couraging it as has been stated by Governor Campbell and his adherents.
 Records of the State Land Board show that approximately 1000 cattlemen now lease land from the state, as against few dozen a decade ago. And still
 
 nunciation of the state land de- partment, claims that few cat tlemen, with the aid and consent of the Democratic members of the state land board, are in league to rob tue state of it's land heritage; and this in the face that there are still thouS. andS and thousands of acres of range land in Arizona free from lease.
 It is a we'll known fact that before the state had the selec. tion of public lands under the statehood act, handful of cat tlemen used the government land without any expense to them. In those days homesteader could not file on more than 16O acres at time, and of course be could not feed cattle on that amount of land. To allow stock to run on open range, was to the homesteader to risk losing them, because he could not afford the expense of branding them and careing for them. As a result
 
 outfits had the monopoly of gov ernment lands because they es- and controlled the wat eripg places.
 It is true that the state lands may not be leased for all they are worth, some of it, doubtless, is worth much more to the hold. CT than be pays for it. On the other hand, much of the land may be worth less than the lessee pays for it. This does not mean that there is anything wrong with the present Arizona land system, and under it's oper- we can see no chance for Arizona to lose it's land heritage, as Governor Campbell so voci ferously intimates.
 Only about one tenth of the land that the state has selected under congressional statehood grant has been sold and the greater portion of this was school land situated in the cul- tivated valleys of the state, and on which citizens had squatted in the early days and made homes for themselves and their families. This land sold as high or higher than $500 an acre.
 If the people of Arizona find that there is something the mat ter with the land system, they will no doubt enact legislation to improve the present method of handling state lands. This is their public right, and they will use it in spite of all the calamity howlers of the state and what they say about losing the land heritage.

COX THE PROGRESSIVE.
Spring field Republican,

There were no followers of Mir. Roosevelt in 1912 more sin cere and jealous than Mr. Ickes, BaiD bridge Colby, Matthew Hale, John M. Parker, Judge Ben Lindsay. Francis J. Heney and George Rublee. The fact that they are all with the Democrats as against Harding this year in dicateS the choice that true pro- gressiveS must make as between the democratic and republican candidates.
 Mir. Harding's election could not possibly promote progres Sive causes.
 Governor Cox is pre- eminent ly the more progressive of the Governor of Ohio is the record of 8 progressive or is nothing. And no one can dismiss as neg lible Ohio's laws for the protec tion of women and children in industry, for working mems in surance, for the protection of widows and orphans. for the protection of workers health. prison reform. school reform and budget reform.
 There is no possible doubt about the prospects of progress ivism. If the country wants re- action it won't elect Cox.
 i've will accept" says Gov ernor Cox. any reservation that helps to clarify; any reser- vation that helps to reassure: : any reservation that helps to strengthen. We will accept any reservation that helps to give our associated powers full un- derstanding in good faith of the limita tions of our own constitu- tion, beyond which we cannot go After the League of Ma tions has been thus clarified and strengthened then we propose having it ratified by the upper branch of the Congress of the United States and then peace will be guaranteed to the world.
