The Movemen, Toward Campbell

Republicans who have canvassed the state with great thorouEhness possible claiming the reelection of Governor Campbell with the greatest confidence They have been in every town in state in every mining camp and in almost every camp. Everywhere they have found a preponderance of Campbell sentiment They have noticed a striking contrast between the enthusiasm which prevails at Campbell meetings and the lack of 1t at Simms meet ings
 They have found hundreds of democrats who are openly avowing their intention voting for Camp bell and telling why they intend to do so They have found democrat who could give better req for voting Simms than that he happens by the grace of those cattle barons who are also land absorbers to be the Democratic candidate for gov ernor.
 But that does not weigh with the small cattlemen. the "nesters the home -steaders chants the aborng and all citizens who believe that the state lands granted by gov ernment for all the people of the state not be set aside domains for the favored few
 The mal- administration of the state lands is the great issue of the state campaign and is driving thousands of men who have not hitherto voted the Republican ticket to fog Campbell as = Republican, but a pledged to end this mal- administration
 That there has been mal- administration of the state lands the voters convinced; that said to be debatable issue Nal administration was alleged by leading democrats last May and their in- dictment of the land department of which they and are members, is a document of public record The proof of the charge is found in the interests which it alleged the benefciaries of the nal administration are now fighting Campbell and moving the earth and the the of Simms. then the supporter the policies of the land department and committed to a contin- uance of those policies.
 This is matter which. we are informed, has been eettI ed in he of to the state of the land department It is only question how many of the democrats win vote for simms in spite of the land department his att- tude toward it.

 The Republican is in receipt of the following letter from Mir. W.

 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 On the subject of an alleged $10,000 bribe to you in consideration of your refraining to file referendum petitions against, what you term, the land grib bill" the report of an interview with you is printed in the Tucson Citizen of October 13. I quote from it as fol- lows:
 Mccall then said he would have to have the authority of his representa- tives, mentioning the name of a prom inent land attorney of Phoenix and that of a we'll known banker of Northern Arizona, and to satisfy them, he said, the transaction would have to be handled through a bank" Living in Flagstaff, I am "of North ern Arizona" managing the First Ma tional Bank of Flagstaff.

The conclusion, therefore, is that the quo | tation given may be applied to me without any undue stretch of imagina- | tion. The application would be made the more readily because Habbitt Brothers, who are amongst the largest operators in the cattle and sheep busi- ness in Northern Arizona, and who are Hand barons," sare owners of 8 considerable amount of the stock of this bank, through which practically all of their banking transactions pass I do not like the probability of being identified as the banker who had to be consulted, and give his permission before the details of the alleged $10r r00( bribe could be determined upon Neither do I like the probability oi this bank being identified as the ons through which the transaction would have to be handled" I do not like these probabilities because considera. ton of them, by the public. is harmful to me and to the institution which represent The making possible O their consideration was an injustic, on your part, although believe an ob jective injustice and not a deliberat, one.
 I think you cannot avoid seeinl plainly that l, this bank, and all othe bankers and banks in Northern Arizon; other than the one actually meant il your interview, are placed in a position which in simple justice you should talk them out of by an additional statemen clearing all who are not concerned. , Very truly yours
