Little need be said in behalf of Mir. Kuchler sf the candidates who is republican for the office of state commissioner Mir. Kuchlers four years record in that office speaks eloqueny him. louder than any campaign orator and incisively anu convincinEly than any campaign document. MT. Kuchler entered the office with peculiar qualifica- tions. He was not only trained business man, one familiar with public affairs, but he judge of ar kinds of property whose valuation makes up the tax rolls of western states.
 The services of Mr. Kuchler have been helpful his associates the commission and his relations. though his party afnlaton has been different from theirs. have been at all times cordial.
 No owner Of any class of property which has come under tho inspection of Mir Kuchler could justly complain of the findings he has reached in effort to deal fairly between different clasSes of property and perform his duty to the state. The esteem fin which he is held is general among all those who have been brought into with him either official individual.
 Democrats disposed to concede his return to the commission tho splendid record he has made. They are inclined in his to regard his office such as ft has been nominaly made by the stitution--non- partisan. and to place merit above party affinatlon.

A POOR ARGUMENT

Thinking to add another to list Iisl. the recruiting sergeant tackled the in nocent looking youth who paused to admire the display of military posters
 He used every argument he could think of, winding up with the exclama- ton.
 Yes, the armys the life for a man free grub and clothes, plenty of travel ing about and once you've joined you'n never want to leave.
 "In think it over sergeant',' said the youth slowly, and come to see you again in a day or so."
 You've got to make up your mind on the spot if there's any business do- ing" replied the sergeant unthinkingly. I'm expecting every minute to get de mobilized myself. ."-Pittsburg Chron- icle- Telegraph.

 The Republican party astonished the world when it decided that this ration was great enough to construct the Panama canal, it had the energy, the brains and the money, and when the giant intellect of Theodore Roose- welt decided that the canal should be built, he pushed aside every obstacle and it was built to the great credit of Theodore Roosevelt and the Republi- can party.

The excellent record of constructive legislation made by Senator H. B. Wilkinson during his two terms in the legislature has evoked favorable com ment during the four years he has represented Maricopa county in the upper house; and his candidacy for another term now makes that record topic of spciael interest to the voters
 The large vote given to Mir. wilkin- son by Democrats at each election has attested their faith in his loyalty to the public welfare their belief in him as man and good citizen. and their confidence in him as a legislator who is not actuated by partisan considera- tions in dealing with legislative meas ures. And Senator Wilkinson, in the good record he has made in the legis- lature. has fully justified the confi- dence which the people have always expressed in their votes for him at the polls.
 Among the measures of great i'm portance which Senator Wilkinson succeeded in placing on the statute books is the law creating the Arizona resources board. That law. enacted in 1919. has proved to be one of the most useful pieces of legislation that came from the Fourth legislature. The re- sources board, non partisan in make up by the terms of the law. is re- quired. in brief. to gather information covering the water resources of the state, and to devise and suggest means for the utilization of the waters of Arizona for irrigation. And although there has been no great amount of publicity concerning the activities of the board, it is a fact we'll known to many citizens. that the board, acting under the advice of Governor Campbell and cooperating with him. has been of extraordinary value to the state in reviving and stimulating interest within the state and throughout the western states generally in the re- clamation of arid lands.
 When this Wilkinson bill became a law, year and half ago, national irrigation appeared to be as dead as the traditional door-nail. Early in the

SPLENDID LEGISLATIVE RECORD
 OF SENATOR H. B. WILKINSON
 Created a New Development n

Wilson administration a law was en- acted by congress, forbidding the United States reclamation service to undertake any new construction with out the speficic authority of congress and that authority was consistently withheld. Interest in the whole su5jec appeared to be at the lowest possible ebb mainly because Of the pessimistic feeling throughout the western states that the situation was hopeless.
 Governor Campbell having approved the introduction and passage of the Wilkinson bill took up, through the resources board ard directly from his office, the difficult task of reviewing first, the interest of the other western states; and following that the interest of congress in reclamation. This inn portant work, initiated by the gov ernor, has progressed to such an extent that the net results are already
 immeasurable value. Among these net results are: the present existence of three great irrigation associations the Western States Reclamation asso- ciation. the League of the Southwest. and the League of the Northwest--all cordially and closely cooperating; and acting closely with these associations lS lfic OOulHtIn 1OInlHcEClttl COuSEcSS. the aim of which is 10 assure the drainage of vast areas of southern swamp lands by the government. These four associations, acting in con- cert. have presesd the questions of arid land reclamation and southern drainage so closely upon congress that the required legislation for re-entry upon a broad policy of reclamation is now certainty of the near future.
 This great undertaking by Governor Campbell has been made easier by the existence and activity of the Arizona Resources board-an entity through which the state of Arizona could prop erly function" in bringing the atten- ton of the country the immense irri- gation resources of the state which remain to be developed. And it was the farsightedness and energy of Sen ator Wilkinson which brought the re- sources board into being.

While there is a good deal of "pussyfootng" go- ing in high circles over the Japanese question American Legion is wholly sympathy with it. At the recent national convention of the Legion in Cleveland resolution adopted demanding the exclusion Japanese immigrants and Japanese pie ture brides" There also a demand for the end- ing of the "gentlemens agreement" whereby Japan is pledged to the emigration of it's poorer to this country for residence and livelihood. We need agreement We have immigration law.
 The Legion is made up mostly of young given 10 speaking their thoughts. Whether they were dis erect or adopting such resolution this time is matter of the viewpoint the franness of their expression was refreshing Moreover it serves to point to fact that the time Is hand when this question of Japanese immigration must be brought to an official head and settled Poulticing win not serve much longer If mild treatment it is all that prevents a conflict with Japan must make up our mind that the conflict inevitable we must get ready for it.
 We may not be aware of it, but the fact is that the people of Japan are much wrought up if than are the people of this country. those of California The 'Caornia attitude hurts their pride because it implies racial discrimination of a sort which the Japanese think should not be directed va,nst them There is a moral side 10 the question as the caIfornians see it and something of social siae but tho phase disturbs the citizens of ina paclfic coast is that which has to do with the ..r,c,It,,ral and commercial economies.
