ITO Ills Exceilency. Governor Hart:
I'm the case OF my former SON

just and believe that the law made
this provision for kidnapcrs OF a diff.
ferent caiiber. if Mr.. Stagg u
forced to serve any more time un.

also upon my daughter and grand

any wrong doing. and whose lives

II have no desire at all 10 see

EAST SHOWS INTEREST
IN GREAT SOUTHWEST
To ARRANGE PLANS

AS an indication of the interest that
has always been felt throughout the
United States in Arizona and the kind
ly feeling evinced toward the youngest
state by those who have seen it's won
ders and experienced its climate,
Harry WEIGH, secretary of the chamber
of commerce, gave out for publication
yesterday the following clipping from
the Philadelphia Public Ledger, which
was sent to him by Paul W. Albrecht
OF Philadelphia In the letter accom-
panying the clipping Mr.. Albrecht
says that he is always watching for
articles on Arizona and the Southwest
in the newspapers and magazines. The
clipping follows:
Civilization in America was far
more advanced than the civilization
in Europe at the time the Roman en-
pire was at her great test according to
c. j. Blanchard, a member of the
United States reclamation service, who
deliveredf a lecture upon the great
Southwest of America at the CONNER
cial museum, Thirty fourth street be-
low Spruce, yesterday.
THE Southwest was the most ro-
mantle and interesting part of the
world, he contended, and the first irri-
CATION system was established there
centuries before the advent of the
white man. Mr.. Blanchard also. told
how the Southwest was rapidly de-
veloping under national reclamation
