SMALLPOX AT PRESCOTT

We don't believe in insidious fault
finding, but a wrong or public men,
ace should be righted and avoided.
Many public ailments, epidemics, ETC.,
could be avoided by more strict OBJ
servance and enforcement of law, es-
pecially health laws. Prescott just
now on the eve of its summer cele-
brations, is undergoing fever OF vac
cination to reduce it's smallpox cases
from reaching proportions of an cpl
demic. If visitors are endangered and
there is a spread of the smallpox,
the Prescott Smoki's exhibition will
do her more injury than all the mon
ey her people could make out of it.
of contagious diseases
should be given widest publicity that
innocent families may not be exposed.

WHO'S PAYING FOR PACT PRoPA.
GANDA?

Three, and one-half pages of the
Arizona Mining Journal are utilized
by MulfOrd WinSOr in a general dia-
tribe of the Colorado river compact
and Governor Hunt. Since the press
of Arizona has charged that pact ad-
vOcates have already paid out nearly
$1,000 to Phoenix paper for similar
publicity, every whit of which charge
is undoubtedly true, we rise to ask
like others who's paying for pact
propaganda" 1t is inconceivable
that Winsor pays for it. Nobody ever
knew him to pay for advertising. In
fact, we never heard anybody ever
accuse him of having anything before
he went out speech-making for the
pact. Arizona Mining Journal space
is valuable. At 500 a page this space
would in one issue cost $3.50. The
same money expended on Winsors
cotton plantation near Yuma would
cultivate 60 to 80 acres. We note
that Senator Winsor hasn't done
much farming the past two seasons
but has been initiating Travelling Tom

pact publicity when he might be

In the foregoing the Arizona pub
lie has only small object lesson
of the immense money power behind
the pact propaganda now going on
in this State-all aided by the repub.
lican press and political spectators
at Washington who know that the
Colorado river is Arizona's .sTeapot
DOme," which the big power inter.
ests covet. But 10000 pages by
Winsor on the pact dry reading at
best, only serves to mystify the av.
erage reader. The salient points all
disclose, however, the rat in ratifica.
ton. The people of Arizona have al
ready spoken thru their representa-.
tives and their governor, Geo. w. p.
Hunt, against this monstrous attempt
to camouflage the people and it is
safe to say that they are thoroughly
aroused to its dangers and will never
ratify the pact as is now proposed.
Arizona state miner., 1924-06-07
ANOTHER RAT IN RATIFICATION

Another rat in ratification that has
just come to light was exposed when
d. w. Davis of Colorado recently ap-
peared before the house committee
in favor of the Boulder Canyon Dam.
Now, D. w. Davis was framer of the
pact and gave out the idea of electri-
ciZing the whole Colorado river for
benefit of the great power combine.
Davis was a reclamation service Of
ficial in government employ, who is
now espousing a Western pact COM
bine, aided by Herbert Hoover a
member of the Presidents Cabinet
and a federal power commission
backed by federal judges. Teapot

Department, was baby in compar-
ison to the octopus that D. w. Davis,
Mulford Winsor, and Carl Hayden
are trying to unload into the lap of
the Predatory Power Trust.
