For all practical purposes the

it by the carload and sell it by the

Little Is heard Of the electric fur

If you were in this shy, retiring, half

Or take the fertilizer business,

putting out fertilizer that is IA per

What If you faced competition with a
product far more plentiful and rs per

GOVERNOR CONDEMNS
 KU KLUX MEMBERS

Governor Campbell in a statement claims to have in his possession a list of 300 members of the ku Klux klan in Phoenix and S92 members in Ari- Zona. He said the list contained the names of some prominent citizens.
 Commenting upon the list ne said: '1 very deeply regret that the mem bership includes some very prominent citizens in several communities of the state and cannot understand how nor why they have joined such an organi- zation unless they allowed their minds to become poisoned by un-American practices and intolerance.
 "I am willing and ready to pay the reward of $150 offered some time ago for the arrest and conviction of the party or parties responsible for the assault upon Rollin P. Jones.
 "When in the east on a recent busi- ness trip I was interviewed by repre- sentatives of several metropolitan newspapers regarding these mob at Jacks. Since these lawless attacks were made I have given much per- sonal time and effort to become &C., quainted with the personnel and work ing of the Ku Klux Klan in order that if this organization shared any responsibility in these proceedings I might trace out the guilty parties and also might be in a position to prevent any repetition of such outrages.
 "Unfortunately there are no stat utes available for prosecuting men merely because they belong to such an orpapiza ation hut I piya thpm the warning that individually or in groups, masked or unmasked, if they are detected in the commission of lawless actions they will be dealt with to the full severity of the law, re- gardless of their prominence in social or political life"

FORMER GOV. HUNT
 WILL BE CANDIDATE

Former Governor George w. P. Hunt, in an authorized statement in the Miami Silver Belt, announces his candidacy for the democratic nomina- tion for governor in the September primaries, as follows:
 "There comes a time in every mans life when he is called upon to set aside his personal comfort and lnclln- ations in consideration of his duty to the state and the people. The failure of the recent democratic conference in Tucson to adopt a plank in their platform opposing the constitutional amendments proposed by the Arizona Industrial Congress, was the greatest factor in causing me to become a candidate for the nomination for gov ernor on the democratic ticket
 "The conference at Tucson ignored the proposed constitutional amend ments altogether in its platform, de- spite a hard fight by the Gila county delegation, with scattering assistance from other parts of the state, to place a plank in the platform vOicing oppo- sition to the proposed amendments.
 'The policy of the conference in endorsing candidates receives my con demnation. In this l am m accord with the Gila county delegation which opposed the whole policy of endorse ment of candidates. The conference exceeded it's authority in making in- dividual endorsements of candidates. This policy, if pursued, would result in weakening and devitaliZing the primary laws, which are the greatest safeguard of the political rights of the common people.
 My final decision to become can didate may be stated as the direct re- suit and the failure of the Tucson conference to come out squarely against the proposed amendments. The conference had ample notice of my stand on this matter.
 q will fight to preserve the con- stitution against those interests which seek its emasculation.
 q have been deluged with tele- grams and letters from all parts of the state, urging me to run.
 "The efforts to weaken the primary laws of the state is an attempt by absentee capitalists to grab the gov- ernment and if successful will result in the political peonage of the people.
 "The democratic party was father of the state constitution and it it's log ical defendent and l do not intend to stand idly by while it is being assault ed by its enemies. I. will continue to tour the state speaking against the proposed amendments.
 If the Tucson conference had con- tented itself with the adoption of a platform and stopped there it would have fulfilled all it's legitimate func- ! tions."

 This great canyon, the greatesr cx- isting example of erosion, has been carved deep into the "arCN by the Col orado river. There are several d;s- tinct geological recolGs of this entire SecCion of country having been under he sea q number cf tin es.
 indications show that tbe Grand Canyon cycle was begun by the Coi- olado river during the Triassic or Jurasic era. The general tilt and slope of the entire country is from north to south; the river runs through the canyon from east to west. The river formed its channel millions of years ago and the land was eroded down to base level. In the gradual rise of land that followed the river was able to keep up with the uplift by cutting it's way. deeper and deep CT. Thus instead of the river follow Ing the natural slope of the land as it arose and titled to the south it has continued in it's original course. It is supposed by some geologists that tnlS ii>hS ol HHt leiiio IS SIill ''oil'S on or has only recently ceased.
 Some of the impressing facts of the canyon are that il has never bean en- tirely explored tecause of impossible barriers; it is approximately an aver age ten miles in width and one mile deep; it is geologically a young val icy; in a million years or more it's present precipitous walls will be gen tie slopes.

The geology class planned geology field trip to Grand Canyon from the beginning of this term until it was taken last Saturday, when the class, under Professor Gunter, started on this trip. Those in the class are Messrs. Challender, Hamblin, Boice, Yeager, Kimbro and the Misses Kel- Ter, Hammond and Lowitzk. Miss Hammond was unable to go on the trip because of an injury to her toe. Mr. Hamblin and his wife went with Miss Kellar and her mother in their car. The Misses Jenny Willard and Ruth Johnson went with the class as guests, As the class was making preparations, a number of faculty members decided to go also, forming another panty. Those in the faculty party were President McMullen, MT. Ridgely, MT. Drake, the Misses Payne, Berchtold, Dewey, Case, Wheeler and Dodson.
 Most of the members of both par ties carried camping equipment and hiked down the Bright Angel trail and camped or the bank of the Col brado river On the way down the class made study of the general for nations and rock strata of the can yon walls.

During the social session of local lodge the other evening the expenses were defrayed by levying fines on the various members for real or fan cied infractions of the rules.
 The forfeits were collected by the sergeant-at-arms.
 In one instance, however, the ser geant made no effort to collect the fine and the chairman directed his at- tention to the oversight.
 Again the sergeant remained indif- ferent.
 Tapping for order the chairman exclaimed:
 'The sergeant-at-arms has refused to collect fine from brother Amley. We will hear what excuse he has to make"
 Amid the painful silence the ser geant falteringly confessed:

Any sucker can get printing by be- ing the lowest bidder, but did you ever get any sustenance out of the man that wants the cheapest print ing? Did you not notice that the cheap man was a chronic kicker and fault-finder and that he is always hard to collect from? We found that out to our cost. We now pass up the cheap men. We find we think more of ourselves, have more money in the bank and have respect of the men we do business with. We feel that if we had to figure on every job we pro- duced we would in time make enough mistakes to bust us. There are plen- ty of good men to print for.
