FORMER MINING
MAN CANDIDATE
FOR TREASURER

Raymond R. Earhart, sheriff of
Santa Cruz county and one of the
most popular democrats in southern
Arizona, has announced his candidacy
for the democratic nomination for
state treasurer. Mr.. Earhart will
visit Ray in the near future in the
interests of his candidacy.
Although during his two terms as
sheriff Mr.. Earhart has gained the
enyiable reputation Of being one C
the most efficient officers along the
Mexican border, he is not basing his
candidacy for state treasurer solely
on his record as peace officer.
For two terms prior to his election
as sheriff he served the border county
as county treasurer, during which
time he filed the first suit to collect
for the state the taxes due on the
large Baca float in Santa Cruz coun-
ty, thus paving the way for a NUM-
Der OF successful suits for collection
of the Baca float taxes for a period
of years,

| formed and above all, the splendid
25piece band which is literally one of
the finest in the state.
! Every Sunday the mornings and
afternoons are spent in the spacious
| big hall where music, recitations and
games are enjoyed and which is really
the meeting of an adolescent literary
and musical society
Under such. conditions, it is mani
fest that there would be cooperation
on the part of the state officers, re-
lsponsible for this institution, to i'm
prove the physical surroundings of
these boys and girls. Much has been
accomplished in the past 18 months.
A swimming pool, 50x2O0 with a
ski foot depth was begun in January,
1919, and finished in August of last
year at a cost of $1,250. Filled with
cold mountain water from Post creek
canyon. it is a favorite place of sport
of all the children in the school,
In connection with the 13O-acre
farm owned by the industrial home
of which 100 acres were cultivated
last year by the boys and a slightly
full grown White Leghorns and 200
baby chicks which are tended by the
boys and are housed in two buildings
which were completed this spring.
The new steam laundry, left un-
finished under a previous administra-
tive control, was finished early last
year and all that work for the school
is done by the pupils.
Il Two magnificent new dormitories
have been built. That for the boys
which faces the quadrangle to the
south is known as Ross cottage 1t
was begun in August, 1919, and fin
ished the past month. 1t contains SO
rooms, each equipped with fine
three-quarter bed, a kitchen, recep-
tion hall, lavatory and every one of
the bed rooms is an outside room.
The other known as Campbell cot
tage has an 18bed' capacity for the
girls, a kitchen, lavatory, music and
reading room dining hall and is
elegantly fitted up throughout. The
cost of the two buildings furnished
was $78,940, splendid investment as
it resulted in moving the children out
of the old stone houses of the fort
into thoroughly modern and sanitary
surroundings. The girls dormitory
was begun and completed at about
the same time as was Ross cottage.
A minor change has been the in
stallation of fixed military drills which
have interested the boys greatly and
aroused the corps of honor sense
among them. Superintendent Larson
also has installed a new moving pic

1t has been estimated that every

will be seen that the outlay which
is being made by the taxpayers for

Mr. Earhart has been a citizen of
Arizona for the past fourteen years.
He first located at the Mowry mine
near Patagonia, being connected with
that historic property in the capacity
of engineer. Following the panic of
1907 the mine was closed down, anG
Mr.. Earhart was placed in charge of
the property and its affairs for east
ern owners. In 1911 friends induced
him rather against his will to become
a candidate for the democratic nomi-
nation for county treasurer. At that
time he knew scarcely a dozen peo-
pie in Nogales, yet he was elected
over his republican opponent. In
1914 he was reelected county treas
urer by large majority, being un-
opposed either in the primaries or in
the general election.
During the war Mr. Earhart not
only served on the local draft board
in Santa Cruz county, but as sheriff
he was active in rounding up and
arresting draft evaders and deserters,
who made their way into Nogales,
en- route to Mexico
Mr.. Earhart is Al years old. He
is married and has one son, of high
school age. Mr.. Earhart got his
start in life firing locomotive, and
for, six years he was a locomotive

bership in the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers, being member

( ture outfit with which entertainments
are given at least once week.
In the last 1S months in addition
to their other duties, the boys of the
school have cleared over 20 acres of
new land which is being for the first
time this year sown to a crop. Two
acres of vineyard were also cleared by
them and more than 1000 vines have
been planted and they have also de-
voted considerable time to the care
of the orchard which, contains about
400 trees, divided between plu1ns,
pears, apples, apricots and peaches
in the main.
Another Improvement which was
made looking to the health of the
children was the installation of an
acetylene tank at the intake where
the water comes down from Post
creek canyon after a sheer fall of
800 feet from the source.
The institution now has it's own
dairy cows which are tended by the
boys and which furnish fresh milk and
butter ample for all their needs.
Present plans of the management call
for the erection of a new dairy shed
some time during the early fall.
Some idea of the extent of the in
stitution can be CLEANED from the
statement that in all 20 buildings are
occupied by the superintendent, the
teachers and the children. Many of
these buildings are of stone, part of
the plant of old Fort Grant and, though
they are solid and usable, they will
eventually be replaced by modern
concrete structures, such as the two
new dormitories.
There were on June 27, about 80
boys and 20 girls under the care of
the superintendent who is assisted by
his wife in the management of the
institution. The boys were comfort
apply clad and the girls are neat and
trim in gingham dresses or for Sun
day in linen. =
Efforts to escape from the sense
of confinement which is the only re-
straint about the institution are be-
coming less under the new regime
The children are making splendid
progress in their studies in school
and it has been found that the voca-
tional work is serving as the chief
agent in their reclamation.
The sewing and housekeeping for
the girls and the manual training for
the boys has not only served to make
them better children while in the in
stitution, giving their minds a def
mite interest, hut has been doubly
serviceable in that, on their. parole,
they are able to find situations which

4 PHOENIX, July 24.-The greatest
reclamation project in the state of
Arizona is located at Fort Grant on
the sun-laved south slope of the Ora
ham mountains.
There under the direction Of the
state and at the cost of the taxpayers,
under the most improved modern
scientific methods of cultivation un-
son, virtually 100 waste and weeded
projects are being worked and in the
course of the past two years it has
1 been found that rs per cent of them
Eave Keen permanently reclaimed
This project is officially known as
the Fort Grant Industrial Home where
the boys and girls of the state of
Arizona who have somehow OF another
gotten started on the wrong path in
life, by kindness, by the learning of
a trade, by the inculcation of self
reliance and right principles, are be-
ing made into useful citizens .
The whole theory under which the
institution has been conducted for the
past 18 months is that the boy or
girl under II (maximum age at which
children are sent to this home) is
the best possible prospect for devel-
| opment and rescue To that end the
school has been made into an insti-
tuition on the honor system, the edu-
cation feature has been stressed more
than ever before, community life is
encouraged, music, literary studies
and the arts are given a free hand
and above all every child in the
school is, when paroled, sent back
into society with a trade or knowl-
edge of housekeeping.
The results of this system have
been remarkable. Close track of the
boys and girls after they return to
the world has shown that fully rs
per cent of them have made good in
their places of employment and that
practically none of them repeat their
Juvenile mistakes. -,
Fortunately for the working out of
this policy, it has been the purpose
of the present commission of state
institutions to facilitate the situation
in every way.
! 1t is of course helped by the very
location of the>home Thirty-six miles
out from Wilcox on high plateau
5000 feet up, just at the foot hills
of the Grahams, the climate and at
mosphere which the children breathe
is invigorating and pure, making for
cleanliness of mind and cleanliness
of body, location where for more
than seven months there has not
been a single call for physician to
combat diseases of the body except
where children have come to the in
lstitution in bad health.
In such an environment working
out of doors most of the time, the
boys have developed into splendid
gardeners and farmers or indoors
have learned mechanical trades,
while the girls have become cooks
and seamstresses whose work is
lcreditable throughout.
The boys not merely work the
farm which turned out last year all
the truck that was used by the in
stitution, but they are learning to be
carpenters, shoe makers, they run
the power and heating plant, they do
all the plumbing. The laundry work
for the two departments is done al
together by the boys and girls and
the school is as near self supporting
in its daily needs as any state school
can be made to become
