REASONING IT OUT

Laying down blanket barage," as it were, charging the Campbell administration with being all wrong, too costly, with taxes too high, is not fair statement of conditions in Arizona Hunts blanket charge of extravaganza does not stand up we'll as against the detailed statement made by governor Campbell. Our democratic friends are well aware of the fact that not only Arizona, but every state in the Union was adversely af fected by the orgy of spending during Wilson's administration and the war. We were called upon to spend and give until it hurt It did hurt and does yet, as investigations of the wild war contracts are coming to light, where millions were squandered by the government and vast supplies given over to spectators who became millionaires over night. It was the most ghast- ly financial spectacle the country has ever known.
 This squanderng we are still paying for re- acted on the states. No sane man denies that the war and the Wilson democratic administra- tiOn's contracts made on cost plus 10 per cent, raised prices to unheard of levels. States had to pay at the same ratio of increase to carry on state government We doubt if any right think ing man will challenge this statement.
 We are willing to admit that Governor Camp bell has made mistakes and are inclined to think he admits it also, but we are certain none of them were anywhere near the magnitude of those made by President Wilson's administra- tion where billions and millions were absolutely wasted and given to grafters. We are speaking now in proportion as Arizona bears to the na- tion. But Arizona had to bear her share of the war plundering profiteers made possible by Will sons administration.
 Comparing Hunts last administration as to total costs, with CampbelPs administration is no more fair than demanding that merchant be condemned for not selling goods at the same prices now he did years ago.
 Costs and conditions change every year PeO- pie demand more and spend more now than our forefathers did. The mere blanket statement that it cost two millions during Hunts admins tration and six millions during Campbell's ad- ministration, is no more fair than the compar- ison of costs during President Taft's admins tration and that of President Wilson.
 We do not believe that Hunt ever was an l. w. w. or agreed to their propaganda that trou- ble alone brings happiness to the people. But we do believe that out of the goodness of his heart mistaken as he may be, that element of society has put him in bad and feel they can best use him if he is elected to office

AMUSIN' OLD WILD BILL

The tariff law already has stiffened prices, and it is expected prices gradually will climb up toward wartime figures. It means the lot of the poor will be harder; the rich will grow richer through it's provisions.-Prescott Courier
 Wild Bill forgets all about what made war time prices" Bill also forgets how wildly the Wilson administration signed checks and left no funds in the bank to pay 'em. Now, when the day of reckoning comes, he can yell loud and long forgetting as he does with his short demo- cratic automatic memory, all the overnight mill lionaires the democratic administration made. Yep B the Wilson democratic administration danced merry dance, wild and wilful, then turn ed the fiddlers bill over to the republicans to pay. Maybe, Bill you can can fool the voters into kicking the wrong party at this election, but we doubt it. The people are not damphools all the time.

HAYDEN FOR BOULDER CANYON

It is plainly evident from Congressman Hay den's speech at KingTnan and his speech at Flag staff that he is for the Boulder Canyon dam site and favors the government building the dam, in some far-off distant time. Hayden is primarily an "irrigator," but seems to forget that down in the Salt River Valley, the Roosevelt dam built at three or four times the original government estimates, is being paid for by the sale of the power The land owners have only paid some 15 per cent of the cost back to the government. If it was not for the power deve- oped and sold, the whole project would be bank rupt because of deferred payments. If Carl was as good civil engineer as he is politician he would not lean so strong toward Boulder Can- yon--a Neveda project, not an Arizona project.
The Coconino sun., 1922-10-13
POLITICS AND PERSONAL INTERESTS

Congressman Hayden and Senator Ashurst played poor hand for their constituents on the tariff question. They gave conclusive evidence that their party principles of tariff for revenue only" was always uppermost in their minds. They were strong for getting as high protec- tive tariff for cotton, wool and cattle as possible in the schedule while the bill was being threshed out in detail, but when it came to final vote, voted against the whole bill.
 Their attitude and old-time free-trade beliefs were known to the party in power and that little help could be expected of them in final show down. They were willing to ostensbly lend their aid in raising schedules in which their constitu- ents in Arizona were vitally interested, but had they secured everything they had asked for in the bill for Arizona, they would have voted and worked against the final passage of the law. Their attitude in following the ancient demo- cratic policy of free trade of the Civil War per- iod, has not convinced their constituents of their real support in congress.
 If it was good to protect Arizona industries, then it is good to afford similar protection to the rest of the states of the Union. Hayden and Ashurst were willing to agree to help Arizona because they knew their constituents, regardless of party, demanded it, but the powers that be in congress, knew their hearts were not in the fight
 Today these representatives of Arizona are condemning the tariff bill in most venomous terms as the worst kind of legislation that ever happened. They know that the Wilson demo- cratic administration left this country billions of dollars in debt for graft pure and simple. Bill lions that must be paid for, but far be it from them to tell that part of the story Republican administrations have always had to find ways and means of paying off the debts made by dem ocratic administrations. Congressman Hayden now points with great glee to the republican par ty as the one who must dig up the money to re- pair the loss inflicted upon the United States by a profligate democratic administration. He points to other republican tariff bills made necessary by democratic administrations in the past, which secured the revenue to pay for democratic fi- nancia blunders and waste
 The people were fooled couple of times into believing that the republican party was respon- sible for the debts left by democratic adminis- tration, debts they were forced to find ways and means of paying. It is doubtful if the American people with their recent experience in making few thousand war profiteer millionaires are go- ing to charge it to the republican party merely because that party is being compelled to dig up the money from the only source possible-the people-to pay democratic debts.
 Even od-line southern democrats are break ing away from the free trade idea and realize their mistakes of old.

The democrats of the state nominated Hunt for governor and then just to show their good will, the democratic state central committee elected Vernon Vaughn state chairman. Vaughn was Wards manager during the primary cam paign. In the meantime Editor Wild Bill Stuart of the Prescott Courier is wilder than ever in boosting Vaughn's candidacy but sorter using his muffler on Hunts chances. Wild Bill has two pencils and often picks up the wrong one in writing political dope. Having lived down close to the lot where political animals have been trained for some thirty years, Bill can't sell us any Barnum sore spots and make us think it a leopard. You gotta tell 'em the truth most of the time, Bill.

WHAT KICK?

The New York World, democrat, complains be- cause lot of importers of foreign goods had to pay into the United States Treasury thousands of dollars in duties on goods that came in on the day after President Harding signed the new re- publican tariff bill. We'll, since the democrats always profess to be for a tariff for revenue, what is the World kicking about? If Harding prompt signing of the bill took few hundred thousands of dollars out of the pockets of the foreign importers, and put it into the treasury, there are a lot of us who will applaud his readi- ness to sign the bill at the first opportunity.

Smith w. Brookhart, the republican nominee for the U. s. senate in Iowa, is being repudiat- ed by the republican party.
