In seeking the various shades of opinion the char artcr and ability of Ralph Cameron, people have far aiicd There prolific source. however than in the Republican party, and frequently from Repub lican newspapers. In these columns have already printed what F. $. Clark thought of Cameron day two before the primary. He told. in very plant language. what he thought of his opponent in signed statement in the Tucson Citizen. Perhaps Clark ardent newSa per friend the Prescott Journal Miner of Prescott. Consequently quote what that paper thought of Came before the primary and probably does now but is swaowin. hard and making little noise in behalf of the great ''prolniscr.
 Here iS what the Journal Miner had to Sav under the caption. ''Thc nerve of Ralph Cameron:'
 ''lt thought when the Republicans of Arizona rc lnated the leadership of Ralph Cameron at Tucson ill 96 at their state convention by refusing to let him con tnuc in the office of national committeeman. that he would take the hint and not again ask for honorS or office at their hands
 "Evidcntly Cameron did not receive the impression it contcncd o convey. for he k aSpilmt fof the nomination of United States and has already started his 9lr. The fact that he has been in the east for

 Ralph dearly loves Arizona: in fact just doteS it. and if attention iS paid his siren he k the only who can adequately represent her in the seats of the mighty He iS i'll earnest in his ambitious and o furhcr thr II i> said has almost persuaded of his eastern cnds finance him to the extent of S1OO0OO. Naturally he would expect any persons in Arizona to aid. h k prepared not only nonresident but through pre- experience they would be inclined to view any such request with d>tdVu. Of course the 1nor of sack k always sufficient to rally certain people o maIS

 ''t k that Arizona does need representation l the United States >cIatc-and needs badlybut 1t does want Ralph Cameron there. The Journal Miner has followed the political of Nr. Cameron for many and at time counted anon" his supporters. We and shall no longer he enumerated among tha; llunbcr There iS desire part say attempt to dictate the party. it's choice of candidates but certainly reserve the right say whom this paper will support. and under circumstances will il br Ralph anclol.
 '''lhc voters of Arizona rule independent in their exercise of the suffrage right This fact has been fully demonstrated n recent state and county elections. and the trend in that direction i> becoming pre-" uonced aily.
