 Despite the fact that we are con- stantly being urged to exercise pre- cautions for the prevention of fires and the costly experiences which we continue to undergo. great deal still remains to be accomplished before we shall have attained the goal de- sired. namely that of doing away with all preventable fires. When we reflect upon the fact that approxi- mately 15,000 persons, meet of them women and children, are burned to death in the United States each year, a much larger number are serious | ly injured, and property amounting l to billions of dollars destroyed. it brings foFcibly to mind the neces- sity for constant and never -fIagging effort to hold in check this monster | of destruction.

served as Fire Prevention Day. but in order that a special effort may be made to impress upon the public mind the urgent necessity of observ- ing all proper precautions to safe guard us from fire, it has been re- quested by the President that the 10th day of october be set apart for this purpose. 1t has been aptly sug- gested that there be told in each of our schools on the day named, the Fiftieth Anniversary of the disas- trous Chicago fire. the story of that destructive conflagration brought about through mans carelessness.
 Now, therefore. 1, Thomas F. Campbell, Governor of the State of Arizona, do hereby designate Monday. October 10, 1921, as Fire Prevention Day, and I urge every citizen to take an active part in all measures looking toward the prevention of fires, It is requested that the day be observed by clearing up and abat- ing all circumstances of irVflamab ble material and abolishing a fire haz- ards wherever same may be found Let the day become cne of rigid in-
 
 view of preventing the incepton of conflagrations. In this worthy mom- ent our churches can be of great as- sistance in spreading the doctrine of carefulness from the pulpit and through the Sunday School The pro- motion in our schools of systematic instruction in fire prevention should be given special attention on this day, in order that there may come about at frequent intervals a recurrence of public realization to the ever-present peril of fire and the means whereby this calamitous destruction of life and property may be averted. In Witness Whereof. I have here unto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed Done at Phoenix. the Capital, this 30th day of September. 1921.

contest Governor Thayer con-
tinued to insist that no governor
had been elected and that he held
the office as a hold-over. While
Governor Boyd was recognized by
other state officers as governor and
held sway in rooms furnished him
by the state auditor, Thayer held
tight hold on the executive offices
on the first floor of the state house.
With militia on guard outside and
Lincoln police within, Thayer stayed
in the office day and night. After
a week of this, Thayer finally va
Gated the apartments, but continued
to press his suit before the supreme
court.
In May. after Boyd had acted as
governor for four months, the su-
preme court, by vote of two to
one. declared him not citizen and
ineligible to the office. Boyd ap-
pealed to the United States supreme
court but in the meantime vacated
the office to Thayer. Thayer acted
until the following February. when
the United States supreme court
ruled Boyd a citizen and restored
him to the office.
The legal moves excited extreme
bitterness between advocates Of the
two men and there was much ex-
citement when Boyd was thrown out
of office by the state courts. The
tenseness never approached. how
ever, that of January 8. when brute
force was necessary to enforce court
orders and when the daring insistence.
of one man-Meiklejohn-held the
fort for the principle which he up
held
