GENERAL GREENWAY DENIES
CANDIDACY FOR GOVERNORSHIP

Gen. John c. Greenway, general
manager of the New Cornelia Copper
carnpany at Ajo will not be a candi-
date for the democratic nomination
for governor. @
In no uncertain terms, General
Greenway made it known that under
no circumstances "would it be prac-
tical or possible" for him to become
q candidate. His statement qtiieted
runiors which have been in circulation
throughout Arizona for the past sew
eral weeks.
In fact, unknown to the Warren
man, petitions seeking to make him
a candidate for the pQninaBion have
been in circulation BY friends iii Gra-
ham, Maricopa,, and Yavapai counties
for some time.
One Of the leaders in this move
inent has been W. b. Kelly of Stafford,
editor of the Graham county Guard

of the Graham county petition and it

GEO. ATTERBURY WANTS
CONSTABLE NOMINATION

Now comes Geo. 7. Atterbury and
gives notice that he is in the race for
nomination as constable, Flagstaff
precinct, which same he hopes to get
at the primaries ON September 8.
Well, Mr.. Attenbury would make
good constable, of that there is no
doubt in the mind of any who know
him. For one thing he is widely ac-
quainted, not only with the people of
the precinct and county, but with the
country itself. Add to that good
horse sense, reliability, respect for the
law and experience as peace officer
and you have a part of his qQualifi-
cations.
Mr.. Atterbury was. born in Illinois.
He got the western fever while boy
and struck out to Wichita, Kansas,
then a western outpost. The flowing
of the tide of empire westward soon
inundated Wichita, soon thereby be-
came "middle-western," and Mr.. At
terbury made another move toward
the setting sun, this time locating in
the Texas Panhandle. The same
thing happened, and % years ago he
came to Arizona, then, and still, real
west. 1t was 28 years ago this month
he first hit Flagstaff. His home has
been in this state ever since, and the
last Ia years in Flagstaff.
Painter and paper-hanger by trade,
two years ago he gave that up to be-
come night marshal of Flagstaff, and
served efficiently and courteously.
Business men and other residents
found him ready at all times to be
accommodating and mindful of their
interests. Many strangers arriving
ON night trains have spoken of the
courtesy shown them in numerous
ways and through him received favor
able impressions of Flagstaff and its
helpful hospitality to strangers.

A CALL TO THE INDEPENDENT
VOTERS OF ARIZONA
o wssren NeypspsF Ilaion

The political conventions have met.
The result of their deliberations are
known to all. A vote for either can
didate of the two dominant organiza-
tions is only further perpetration of
the long drawn out game of "Tweedle
Dee and Tweedle Dunn" in so far as
the best interests of the rank and file
of the American people are concerned.
Of all the conventions that of the
Cleveland Progressive convention was
epoch-lnaking in American history 1t
was decided expression of the Amer
lean people that they intend to return
to the form of government their fore
fathers left them wherein their ma
tional rights were guaranteed under
the constitution of the United States,
and they possessed certain state
rights which have been practically
eliminated at this time.
La Toilette and Wheeler are by far
the strongest ticket now before the
people. This independent ticket is
progressive and all American in char
acter. 1t is the desire that the Inde-
pendent vote of Arizona may not be
found "asleep at the switch and to
prevent this, an invitation is being ex~
tended to every independent voter Of
Arizona without regard to sex, race
or creed to be present at the House
Chamber at the state capitol building
at eight o'clock next Tuesday evening,
July 20, 1924, for the purpose of fur
ther organization of this Independent
campaign in Arizona.
By order of
THE COMMITTEE.

lar and successful ranchers of Gar
land Prairie section, announces that

of his ranch he has added three new
Arizonans to our population, conse-
quently feels like native born Arizo-
nan himself.
James came to Arizona with his two
hands and a willingness to work for
success. He now owns his ranch and
a growing bunch of cattle to attest his
ability.
In acknowledgment of his sturdy.
ability and honesty, his neighbors,
scattered over a wide section of the
ranching region, insisted that with his
well known economy and good judg
ment, he would be a splendid man for
SUPERVISOR and one who could be
trusted to not only represent them in
county affairs, but the interest. of
every class and do it most profitably-
to all concerned. James having made
good for himself unaided, why should
MT he make good for his constituents.
Mr.. James says naturally. he is for
good roads and the things the county
needs. His neighbors say there is no
need to point out his economy and
good judgment, for, starting out broke
he has proven it beyond question.

P. D.

 MT. Carroll reports a two-inch snow at Yukon points early this month. He stated at all points the potato vines were black with frost and that crops were practically ruin- ed by the early frost. The Yukon district is practically depopulated, owing to the post at Gibbon being abandoned and the railway furnish ing coal to river points doing away with woodcutters. Many fish are run ming up the river this year, and a good supply will be put up.

STANDARD OIL IN KODIAK

Construction of the new distribut- ing station of the Standard Oil com pany at Kodiak has reached the state where it is possible to announce that the station will be opened about August 8th. Four tanks large en- ough to supply all the possible re- quirements of that region, are being built. Two 10000 gallon tanks will contain Red Crown gasoline, one of the same size will contain Pearl Oil, (kerosene), and a 10000 gallon tank will be for engine distillate. These are located at the Erskine company dock, which, with the warehouse thereon, has been leased from MT. w. J. Erskine.
 MT. Eskine has heretofore handled some of the Standard Oil products, but as the Standard people felt that the time had arrived when a wider range of products and greater facili- ties were needer, they decided to put up their own storage tanks and main tain their own establishment. In addition to gasoline, Pearl Oil and engine distillate, there will be a full line of lubricating oils and greases. At present, however, there is no Diesel engine fuel stocked. Large meters are being installed on all pipe lines, which will insure accuracy and speed in delivery.
 MT. H. J. Grub, formerly of Pet ersburg and Ketchikan, where he has had much experience with the Com pany, will be in charge of operations. The establishment of the station at Kodiak is a-concrete indication of the confidence of the Standard Oil Com pany in the permanent possibilities of business in this district of Alaska.
