of acceptance has done much to
awaken the minds OF the people

to solidify the strength of Demo

Since the publication of the
Davis address last Tuesday,
Chairman Vernon Vaughn OF the
State Democratic Central com
mittee has been showered with
expressions of con fidence from
prominent voters from all parts
of the state. Here are few of
the statements which have been
received by him.
From Mulford Winsor, Yuma.
The speech of John w. Davis,
Democratic presidential nominee
is most satisfying. 1t holds small
consolation tor predatory inter
ests, but for legitimate business,
and for all who long for a gov
ernment in which there shall be
no faint of dishonesty; before
which men and women of all
stations shall be equal, and in
which human rights, expressed
in practical terms, shall be plac-

should make clear the duty Of
every true progressive-of every
progressive voter who seeks re
suits from the casting of his bal
lot rather thsn the mere voicing
of a protest-to vote for Davis
and Bryan. It should bring
home to the workingman and the
farmer the inescapabie fact that
a vote for LaFollette, however
worthy a statesman LaFollette
himself may be, will be merely
vote for the perpetuation of
Coolidge, the high priest of the
privileged few. 1t should bring
home to the average citizen,
business and professional man,
that the way to prosperity is by
the Democratic course enumer
ated by Democracy's leader.
From J. B. McNalley. M. D.,
Prescott.
The Davis speech of accept
ance is one of the greatest and
grandest declarations of human
principles and policies I have
ever read.
Not only America. but the
wide world surely needs at this
time, this sterling character and
his master mind. None less than
his will re establish and stabilize
the now chaotic business condi
tions of two continents.
John w. Davis will be elected
our president. The great heart
of America already feels the
thrill of his great soul, of his
honest, upright and God depen.
dent heart.
From D. P. Kimball, Phoenix.
John w. Davis is entitled to
the loyal support of independent
business interests. His speech
of acceptance reveals the fact
that his principles OF govern

have no hesitancy as bust
ness man in indorsing the candi
dacy of Davis. Though a man
of means be has never lost sight
of progressive principles. This
is proven by the fact that he has
used his ability as lawyer in
defense of Mother Jones" and
