OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec l7.--Ac-
tivitics OF polit cal leaders have been
largely directed toward completion
of the work commenced the week
before. The World very correctly
stated last week that tho democratic
gubernatorial nomination can easily
go TO Elmer Thomas Of Medicina
Park and that statement is no less
true now than II was last week. As
then stated. Mr. Thomas has the
rixth district nomination sowed up
ant is very reluctant to let go OF IT,
Only his absolute refusal to emerge
from the congressional to the CUB
ernational candidacy can prevent
him from being the democratic
nominee for governor, and practical
ly without opposition, for the major
candidates now before the demo-
cratic party would withdraw in the
event that Thomas should see tit to
make the race.
that Thomas viii not be an aspir-
ant tho several democrats who have
determined to run will maFe n
rather interesting race. State super
lntcndent Wilson, former Congress
man Howard and former Internal
Revenue Collector Bolen are avowed
candidates. Against them viii very
probably be pitted state Treasurer
Arthur Leecraft and Lioutenant
Governor NJ. II. Trapp~ The last
two are undeclared candidates, but
the probability of entrance IL great
or than the probability of them re
naming to one side. Also there Is
former Chief Justice Thomas IL.
owen, whose candidacy Ia largely
based as to whether he can get the
ma jor- generals to stand for him.
This must not be misconstrued TO
mean that Justice owen Is not for
midable factor, for he H. and stu
another is Mayor j. G, Walton of
Oklahoma city, whose candidacy
has Assumed alarming proportions
in the past fortnight. Those leaders
who appear 10 think the oklahoma
City mayor is not In the running are
lust doing the graveyard whistle.
FOR he has az the present time the
best organized army OF rank and Tile
members within the state.
No one questions the accuracy or
the statement that the entrance OF
Elmer Thomas would eliminate this
confusion and still II must be ad-
mltted that Thomas ia occupying a
rather peculiar political position.
The opposition TO his congresslona'
nomination Ia purely neglisible--no
one takes It seriously. Ho lives In
democratic district and 1t will very
probably remain ko, In congress
his future Is mapped out, while a
governor of this state generally gets
as reward the worst OF 1t with
whatever can be added for interest,
Therefore friends OF Thomas, and he
has few democratic enemies, are
somewhat divided as TO whether he
should sign as Moses the Two Times
or Just go ahead TO congress and let
thu factions fight It out with them
I selves.

ARIZONA'S OPPORTUNITY

In the various reclamation project IS
being considered which involve the
use of the water of the Colorado
river. the needs of California and the
benfits that will accrue to that state
arc too frequently stressed. Califor-
MIA, the larger, weather. state. has
always had the lions share of the
goods things which God and the
government have had to bestow. Ii
is Arizona, vastly more than Califor-
MIA, that needs first chance at lrrl-
cation from the Colorado.
Arizona has 100000 arid, unused
acres that could be reclaimed by the
waters of the Colorado and the Gila
rivers, according to an estimate just
made by George Maxwell, an irriga'
ton engineer of that state. Mr.
MaxweIls estimate was made to the
legislature Arizona is willing to
give California as much as she gets
herself The proposed distribution
of waters is Two-ffths to Califor-
mia, two-ffths to Arizona, and fifth
to Mexico.
Considering the needs of the three
regions and Arizonas undisputed de-
pendence on water for crop produc-
ton the suggested division is more
than fair. If Arizona can be assured
of a fair division the legislature
would make no mistake in stretching
a point to make an APPROPRIATION FOR
getting the water.-El Paso Herald.
