TO THE MEN AND WOMEN
VOTERS OF GRANGER COUNTY

At the earnest request of numer-
Gus friends both Republicans and
Democrats throughout Granger
County, | have decided to submit to
you my claims to the office Of Coun-
ty Court Clerk for your decision at
the polls in the coming August cleo
ton.
As YOU are aware, | was a candi-
date for the nomination for this Of
fee before the so-called Republican
Primary Election, held March 25J
1922. Since its occurrence, it has
been frequently referred to as a
sale, because Of the open and la
grant use Of an enormous slush fund
unparalleled IL the annals of the po-
ltical history of the county, to cor
rupt and debauch voters at the polls.
Ordinarily after defeat in a pri-
mary into which / had entered, |
would not and should not continue in
the race; but the character of this
particular primary, the auspices
under which it was held, and the
fragrant use of money therein, were
to my mind, such as to entirely re-
lieve me of any and all obligations
to abide by its results. AS is well

known the primary election machin-

standing my most earnest protesta-
ton, | was denied fair representa-
ton at the polls IN consequence OF
which in many places unauthorized
persons were voted without scruples
against me. | feel that ~ Red
blooded American should tame!y sub
nit to such an indecent outrage; and
earnestly, and confidently appeal
to the voters of Granger County,
men and women for their influence,
and support at the polls.
II am SO fortunate as to be elect
ed, ! promise the people an open,
clean, and honest administration OF
the office and ] pledge my most
earnest endeavors to protect the
taxpayers against graft, and extrav-
agance. Yours very truly,

Bisbee daily review., 1922-07-27

Many of these were destined never to reach their destination, as the storm which was brewing in the early morning on the mountains soon de- veloped into blizzard and the roads were left strewn with dead bodies. These things were seen personally by us, and in visiting one of the Armen- ian buildings where those who were unable to go on were left behind, we discovered several dead bodies on the floor and number of other persons dying, with their children hanging over them. These scenes were only examples of many others which we witnessed during the deportation. Many of the women were unable to carry their children along, and were obliged to leave them on the roadside We took in our orphanage about 20 ofthese children, and several of them were unable to survive the starvation and exposure they had undergone pri- or to reaching Arabkir.
 Personally visited in Kharput sev- eral hospitals that were full of hun dreds of Greek deportees, i'll with ty- phus, and from one hospital it was re- ported that as many as 20 a day were carried to the cemetery. The stories of robberies and extortions told us by the deportees were almost universal We were convinced from the policy of the Turkish government in forward ing these deportees to other places on days when the weather was ex- tremely severe, that their intention was to subject them to such exposure that they would perish. Their policy of giving two rations of bread a day to the. deportees who were working on their roads, which was insufficient for their nourishmeDt, and then cutting 1t down when they showed signs of weakness to one ration, showed that slow starvation was als another meth cd for accomplishing their extermin- ation.
 "On our way from Arabkir through Kharput, Diarbekir and Urfa, we en- eountered these Greek deportees in every village and city, and thousands of them were at work on the road. Personally we examined the rolls of deportees to whom Americans were giving bread every day in Kharput, and the number averaged 3,5O0."

Horrors of Turkish Deportations of
 Armenians Told by American Workers

LONDON, July 26.-Two American relief workers, J. H. Knapp and Miss B. Zimmerman Murdock, who have ar- rived in Constantinople from Arabkir where they have been organizing re- lief among Armenians described pre- viously by Major Yowell and Dr. Mark Ward Arabkir is in the interior of Anatolia, 60 miles west-northwest of Kharput. They estimate that 10000 deportees passed through Arabikr be- tween July 1921 and March 1922. The signed report given by them to the British Armenia Committee reads as follows:
 Beginning in July 1921 the first instalment of 600 deportees of AGreek men of military age arrived. They were all from the Konia district. One hundred and fifty of these were Ar menians, and were sent on to Egin. The balance were. Greeks. About 150 of these; remained in Arabkir, and the balance were sent on to the Kharput and DiaFbekir districts. Then came an instalment of about 25O to 300 de portees, mostly Greek, from the Ordu district. There was, sometimes a man with his family. but generally women without any male members of the family with them, and children.
 To large portion of these it was necessary for us to furnish bread every day for the whole winter. There was another group of about 100 men over 50 years old; some appeared to be 90 years old. These remained a few weeks and then all but a few were sent on to the Kharput area. A large drove of over 1000 was the next in stalment to arrive in Arabgir in the late fall. They were herded on a hill above the city within 200 yards of running ditch of water They were not allowed to get water from the ditch, but were compelled to buy 1t from vendors. On bleak, cold morning a few days afterwards they were started on their way towards Kharput. It was sight that one can never forget, to see middle-aged and old women and men, to say nothing Of the younger women and children, carrying on their backs large loads of bedding, food and faggots, and in their hands pots and kettles, and perched upon their load a child.

Subway w aIks Planned In
 Chicago

CHICAGO, July 26.-Subways un- der Chicago sidewalks instead of un- der the city streets is the plan pro- posed by D. Chase .Denison, Chicago civil engineer, who contends that such an improvement could safely be built at less than half the depth of the or dinary type of underground railway and at a tenth of the cost.
 Only small portion of such sub- way system as Chicago needs can be built at the depth that would be nee essary if excavation should be made under the streets proper, owing to the expense, according to MT. Denison, who has submitted to U. s. Schwartz chairman of the Chicago Council Transportation Committee, plan for a subway system ten or twelve feet deep under the sidewalks instead of twenty-five to fifty feet deep under the streets.

Range Horses Are
 Branded Nuisances
 by State StOckmen

The wild range hawss is no longer romantic cayuse in Arizona; instead he is nuisance, particularly when it comes to paying taxes on him.
 The number of range horses is stead fly decreasing in the state, but teose that survive certainly have not the good wishes of their owners.
 S. ?. Applewhite, of Douglas: Homer Boyce, of the Arizona Cattle Growers
 A ssociation, and H. K. Street. of the .Boquillas Land and Cattle Com pany. yesterday testified before the state tax commission that the range horse is practically worthless and that nobody wants him. Applewhite said. in protesting against minimum val uation of S20 per head that the Slaughter ranch was ready to sell range horses at S1O a head. BOyce de- clared that many stock raisers would gladly give away range horses to any one who would rope them and. lead them saway.y Street also declared that he had found it impossible to sell such horses at as low as $15 head.
 Arizona now has 12727 head of range horses listed on it's assessment rolls at an average of 21.4 per head. or total valuation of $272,534. The number of saddle horses was placed at 15,460 at an average value of SAT- 90 per head.

plication has been made to the United States patent office for protection of the plan, which MT. Denison be- lieves applicable to other cities.
 The city of Chicago owns the streets of the city including the side walks up to the building lines,'' said MT. Denison, "The city has the right to lease to the surface line the space under the sidewalk for the car line This space is now used, if at all, chief ly by business houses for coal holes" |"
