"SEND \ BOOK BACK HOME, URGESC. OF |.

Send a book back home" is the slogan which the chamber of commerce has adopted in connection with it's booklet Today and the coming fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the city of Phoenix. It has been suggested by the chamber of com merce that on Wednesday. October 20, every citizen send one or more book lets to another section of the country. Special envelopes are being prepared for the booklets, and carry a space where the name of the sender may be inserted. The cost of the booklets, in- cluding the envelope and stamp, is 20 cents.
 Orders are being received now for the books. it was said yesterday, which are being sent by the buyers to their friends and relatives in the East. It is believed that several thousand book lets will be distributed on October 20. the city's birthday. although the big celebration will not take place until February, when the county will also reach its fiftieth year.
 To assist those who desire to send the books the chamber of commerce has undertaken a campaign to have as many as possible distribute the books and with this in view is asking all public spirited citizens to send a dollar and the names of five friends to the chamber of commerce, which will see ' that the messages to them will be on | their way on October 20.

'deplorable conditions from the public platform. If it were not such a seri- ous matter to the state, the spectacle of a man who but recently denounced the deplorable administration of state land affairs Hopping over to a hot de- fense of these same conditions. would be laughable.
 Again Seeking Office
 The serious part of all this is that these politicians. who have so faith fully served the big cattle interests while in office, are again seeking of fees that will continue their control of state land affairs. and by their domination of the Democratic party of the state, forced that party. in its plat form. to also go on record as endors- ing these same deplorable conditions: {: this same administration which has been the admitted cause of 'numer- ous complaints and dissatisfaction throughout the state
 Are the voters of our state aligned with the Democratic party going tc stand for such brazen attempt to make them party to these 'deplor- able conditions? I think not"
