CAMPBELL GOES
INTO HISTORY
Of POLITICS

Declaring that he did not 1ccl any
i'll effects from the strenuous CAM
paign which ended with the election
Tuesday, Governor Thomas E Camp
bell was at his desk at the state house
yesterday. According 10 the Republi-
can the governor laid down his rules
for campaigning which he held res
ponsible for his splendid physical,
condition:
During a campaign-
He eats sparingly seven times a
day. r4
He drinks nothing stronger than
green tea, even dispensing with the
morning cup OF coffee.
He relases at every opportunity al
though he sleeps not more than four
or five hours a night
The longer the campaign, the bet
ter the governor feels physically, he
says. With belief in the men and
measures he advocated, he said he
seldom felt mental depression, but al
ways he found his greatest stimula-
ton in the audience that was not al
ways with him" A militant crowd
gave him an impetus to the campaign
speech that was lacking when the
governor found his audience in SYM
pathy with him and the state prob
lens he advocated.
In speaking OF his campaign, the
governor recalled that he received his
first training in Yavapai county in
1906, when as a very young man he
was placed at the head of the repub-
lican central committee The dem
ocrats at the time had control Of the
county and had been i'll power for 20
years when the Craftsmanship was
wished" on Tom" Campbell. He
refused to become chairman unless the
old time party leaders permitted him
to write the platform, manage the
campaign and distribute the patronage.
There was a bit OF objection offered
to the latter demand, but with years
Of defeat behind, it was agreed to
aand over the party to young Tom.
The first thing he did was to for
get Lincoln and 90 stuff in the
platform, III which he featured tax
alton and honesty and integrity III
office He then selected other than
politicians for office and he ana
young Leroy Anderson, an unknown
attorney at the time, campaigncd the
county for the ticket. For the first
time in nearly a quarter OF century,
the republicans won a victory in the
county, which is still the home place
Of the governor.

IS
IN 5000
CLASS

Prescott has been placed in the
5000 rank of cities. Through the
work of the Yavapai County
Chamber of Commerce, 724
names were added to the census
roll, the first canvass showing
1880.
That Prescott has a population
of 5000 to $500 is generally con-
ceded. In the work of taking the
census count there were many
who could not remember whether
they had been enrolled or not, so
many registrations having taken
place with the election, the city
directory. By putting Prescott
into the 5000 class the free de-
livery service for the city will be
carried on as heretofore.

WHERE CONGRESS CAN RETRENcH

There is no excuse for Congress To pro-
fess arnazement at the Implications and
overlapping of authority" IN the executive
departments. 1t cannot plead Ignorance
Of the immense waste oi money III tins
way. which Representative Reavls de
clared was almost beyond conception.
Except by act of Congress the many
bureaus and commissions and other
agencies now condemned rs superfluous or
unnecessary would not have been created
and continued in operation. Many tunes
the appeal has been made TO II to simplify
the government machinery and as often
rejected
The cause and the cure for this state of
affairs lies immeditely with Congress.
What it has done toward adding to the
cost of government by providing for need
less expenditures il can undo by abandon
ing its habits Of indifference.
There is plenty OF room III most OF the
departments for heroic surgery. 1t Is Only
a question of whether the House and the
Senate. when the moment comes for final
decision, will have the courage 70 60
through with their program. Washington
is not a place where such measures are
likely to be considered solely on then
merits. Opposition, no less strong tor being

Round the World in Is Days.

Two aviators are planning 70 fly across
the continent in twentv-four Hours, and
are confident they can make the voyage,
which will include three stops. The dis
tance between the points TO be covered IS
2.97S miles, which is two-thirds the total
distance across the country at it's widest
point. This would indicate that the trip
from the coast of Maine to the Golden Gate
could be made in thirty-six hours, and that
aviators will soon be able TO fiy from New
York to London in a day and half,
beating the best steamship record by
more than three days and half.

Democratic Responsibility .

The unexpected Democratic victory at
the special election for Representative
IN the General Assembly held in the
Seventh district OF Sussex county, yes
terday, proves az large political import
ance. The election Of the Democratic
candidate. Elmer j. Turner, makes the
next House Of Representatives Demo-
cratic by the narrow margin OF IS 70 u,
but for political purposes, as rule, small
majority is as effective as large one.
The State Senate Is Republican by II TO ..
In some respects, this division Of pollti-
cal power and responsibility may prove
unfortunate Generally, 1t is better to
have no such division in legislative body,
but to have one party solely responsible
for all results. Now the Democratic
House will have an equal responsibility
with the Republican State Senate for
legislation. And while the division will
be an absolute guarantee against offensive
partisan legislation, it may be somewhat
different in respect Of legislation that has
no connection wit h purely political in
terests
However. the Democratic House will
have 10 shoulder IT'S responsibility, as
well as the Republican State Senate, and
if the members Of both houses address
themselves 70 their duties in the right
spirit, the people will have lit e occa-
/ sion to fear adverse results. W. parti-
san struggles practically elr. I'D, 1t
should be possible to have de-
voted entirely to straight busllcss, and
or all such matters there viii be no occa-
| sion for drawing partisan lines.
Naturally there will be much interest
/ In the organization of the two houses,
and the party caucuses at Dover, Mon
day night, may be marked by exciting
and persistent struggles. It should be
possible, however, for both houses to eff
! feet an organization promptly, next
Tuesday morning, and settle down tc
business. At least this outcome will be
earnestly hoped for by all citizens who
have an interest in good legislation
