An unusual political situation
has developed in connection
with the filling of the place.
Ralph H. Comeron, Republi-

Lorenzo Hubbell, a pioneer Ari-
zona Republican, once candidate
for United States senator. Hub
bell, who is an Indian trader at
Ganado on the Navajo reserva-

clined the nomination, Then
from the Republican state COM
mittee headquarters came the
nomination of Baumert, who has
been secretary of the state COM
mittee four years. Now comes
assurance that Senator Cameron
himself would be pleased to ba
named. He is understood to be

From a source close to the

learned there has been a gather

: It is interesting to note that
Cameron was a candidate four
years ago for national commit

DR.. Root declares that the an

ed and respectable" clothes of
their foremothers.
Nov is the time for every de-
cent woman to turn to the high

the long skirts and the epvelop-
ing cloaks of old Dame Puritan"
he says.
Here are some. of the thunder,

even in the face of your uproar-
ious dressing.
Men have stood the test of
women's clothes pretty we'll, but
they cannot stand it much long

develops into a campaigner who

a manufactured scandal calcu-
