yet a woman fairly longs to do It every,

ernor Cox's campaign, said that while
he had made contribution to the
Non-Partisan Political Campaign
Committee of the American Fedora
tion of Labor which investigated the
records of the two presidential can
didates, this was the first occasion on
which he ever had contributed to
political party.
He said that he was not member
of the Democratic party or any other
political party, but was endeavoring
to present to the citizenship of the
United States the great issues involv-
ed in this campaign. His conviction,
he wrote, was that it is the duty of
American manhood and womanhood
to give their support to the fullest to
the candidacy of Governor Cox.

Phoenix, Ariz., Oct. Is.
That three years Of Republican ad-
ministration cost the people of Ari-
zona approximately $2,O00,0O0 more in
direct tax levy than five years of de-
mocratic administration, is proved by
an authentic statement bearing the
signature of Charles R. Howe, state
tax commissioner.
The statement is as follows:
Replying to your request Of recent
date to know the total amount of
taxes Levied against the taxpayers of
Arizona since statehood, the records
of this commission show as follows:
Total state taxes levied for all pur-
poses:

Nit Simms, Democratic nominee
Cor governorship, Congressman Carl
Hayden and party were heartily well
coined to Graham county at a recent
meeting by the largest gathering of
people that has ever crowded into
Brier's hall at Stafford. Congressman
Carl Hayden made one of the best
speeches that this section of the state
has yet heard, paying a glowing tri-
butte to his colleague, U. S. Senator
Mark Smith, and presenting clearcut
and intelligent reasons why the Lea
que OF Nations should be accepted by
che American people. He declared
that the high cost Of living since the
war had been due to the action of
republican congress in refusing to
pass remedial measures.
Attorney General Wiley E. Jones,
Who is candidate for reelection, flay-
ed Governor Tom Campbell for his ac-
cusations against the State Land De-
partment. He clearly showed where
it had cost the Arizona public more
money to run the state government
under Governor Campbell than under
Governor Hunt by a great many thou
sand dollars. He also challenged
Gov. Campbell to discuss any question
pertaining to the State Land Depart
ment before any audience in the State.
Nit Simms was enthusiastically
greeted by the audience. He empha-
tically denied the charges of Gov.
Campbell against the State Land De-
partment, including the statement that
land in the Salt River valley had been
sold as low as $3.50 an acre.
His declaration that, if he were
elected governor, he would remove
Tom Maddox, struck a responsive
chord in his hearers and elected loud
applause. He further stated that any
soldier boy who applied for a job at
the road department would get it
whether he was a Democrat or a Re-
publican.

''In the present political contest

to do valiant service for all the peo-
pie of our common country; to deal

Labor is vitally interested in the
election of Governor Cox. During
sixteen years of uninterrupted con-
troll of Congress the Republicans ut
terly failed to grant labor it's just
due and it was not until the Demo.
cratic control in 1911 that considera.
tion was given to measures to improve
conditions under which the laboring
man worked and lived.
The work of the Democratic party
in promoting the welfare of the wage
earners of the country may be illus
trated by these notable accomplish
ments:
Department of Labor organized.
Drastic child labor law enacted.
Use Of injunction in labor disputes
circumscribed.
Punishment for alleged contempt
of court restricted
Machinery for adjustment of labor
disputes created.
Safeguards for labor provided.
Better laws to protect seamen.
Children's bureau established.
Samuel Gompers, an outstanding Ia
Dor leader, makes this assertion !:
THE republican party has declared for
the enslavement of the workers and
for an open field to profiteers and
those who seek to suppress the as
pirations Of the great masses of our
people"
Mr.. Gompers, as member Of the
platform committee of the American
Federation of Labor, subscribed to
this statement:
There can be but one conclusion
based upon a careful and impartial
survey of the actions and declarations
Of the candidates. Governor Cox has
shown himself possessed of a fuller
understanding of the needs of the
working people, a reader response to
their needs and to their proposals, and
a broader craftsmanship in his public
discussions of the problems of the in
dustrial world
In addition to his superior under
standing, Governor Cox is the candi-
date on the plat form which Labor has
declared marks a measure of pro-
gress not found in the Republican
platform" and the planks of which
more nearly approximate the desired
declaration of human rights than do
the planks found in the Republican
platform"
Not only in the specific utterances
relating directly to questions held
paramount by Labor is the compari-
son favorable to Governor Cox. His
progressive and constructive view
point holds throughout his declara-
tion of public questions"
