 Plays Four Power Pact.
 Tlx senator attacked the four power treaty which was signed by this country with England. France and Japan at the Washington conference in the early part of the summer
 We owe our pa-::c:pation in this shameful treaty to the shrewdness of Lord Balfour of England and the dis graceful actions of the republican ad- ministration. he stated
 You remember the promise of the republicans that this country would have ID entangling alliances. Now you sec how well they have kept their promise
 Lord Balfour comes to this coun- tIy as England's representative in the disarmament conference Then. with besuiling suayity h- says. Now friends when We are all here togeth. -r why not make treaty which will settle the peace Of the Pacific Let us cal in Japan and talk the matter over So the four powers. including the Tinted States. are summoned to- gether by the republican administra. ,'cn. and the four powar treaty is conoooted
 What does this treaty provide The United States pledges itself to become the ally of Japan .n case Rus sia endeavors To take away any of the japanese possessions in the Pacific and Russia i, going to do this just 8, surely as we are here tonight. Iu fact. thr process has already begun.
 This is the way in which the re publican administration steers clear O. autangling alliances ionly wish t,at our own statesmen were as zeal ous in their regard for this country 'a Lord BaIfour showed himself 10 {. lr in behalf of England
 . Senator Ashurst drew hearty round of laughter from his audience when he likened Balfour unto Senator ' Charley Roberts of Cochise county. : He said, Put q plug hat on Charley ! Roberts and lot him walk down the street with his hands in his pockets ard you have d picture Of Baifour" Before closing his address the sen atOr took occasion to Hay the state ! republicans on their cowardly attack on Geo. W. r. Hunt, the democratic nominee for governor in their charges that he is an L W. w. and encourages their entry into the state. The speak er reviewed the history of Wilson's appointment of Hunt as minister to far away Siam. the charges brought against him in the senate, the thor ough investigation of Hunts record by republican committee on foreign re- lations and finally his complete yindi- cation and confirmation by a republi. can congress. If that does not prove tc you people of Arizona that Hunt is patriotic man and the propaganda Icing spread about him by the repub- licans at this late stage is pure bunk would like to know it." Senator Ashurst added. He also spoke a word for Tom C. Foster. candidate for state mine inspector. and for Judge Henry T.. Ross for the supreme court. and advised his hearers to vote the demo- cratic ticket straight, explaining the method of voting tine ballot for the officers whom do not appear under ] the party designation.
