 The governor referred to the fact that the educational institutions had been taken out of chaotic conditions and placed on a firm foundation, and congratulated the. progress in high way development that had been made by those counties which have seen fit to cooperate with the state highway department.
 Continuing, he said:
 "But our roads are useless unless they serve to connect more centers of population. We must have more az ricultural empires such as have sprung up in Yuma, the Salt River valley and are now beginning in the Casa Grande valley. The contentment of the state rests in the people who own their own homes. It is not the mines which found great and enduring cities; few of their owners live here and the prof its are spent elsewhere. We must make places for people to live. My hope is that the opportunity you sow ed is now towering through your care. and that some of the fruit ma, be gathered during the next two years am going to offer my services for tha' harvest"
 The governors announcement thrill. ed the assembled throng as the reali. zation came that it meant success to the ticket ip the coming election, and for several minutes long, loud, spon- taneous cheers and applause greeted the speakers remarks.
 Jo the afternoon session the follow ing resolutions were adopted, endors- ing the governors administration.
 We heartily endorse and commend the administration of the honorable Thomas E. Campbell as governor of the state of Arizona in all of his poli- cies, and approve most sincerely of his unswerving efforts to give the people of Arizona progressive, constructive and economic administration. We com- mend his state road program and his efforts toward the reclamation of the arid stretches of Arizona and the great southwest as outlined in his recom- mendations made to and adopted by the national platform committee of the republican party at Chicago. We approve his firm stand, taken in the face of personal opposition, to save the people of Arizona the large areas .of the state lands for bona fide home
