DAVIS is MAN
FOR THE PEOPLE
SAYSN' 'ADOOTO
FRIENDS

Voicing again the sentiments ex-
pressed in his statement given out
from the John Hopkins hospital at
Baltimore, Md, on October 18th, VIM.
G. McAdOo, idol of AriZona's demo-
cracy, spoke for a few minutes to six
hundred Of his friends gathered at the
Santa Fe depot on Tuesday evening
Mr.. McAdoo was accompanied by Mrs.
McAdoo and their two children and
his secretary, Bryce Claggett. He
was on his way to his home in Los
Angeles, after an absence since last
June, when he went east to the dem
ocratic convention and later to
Europe.
He says that he has been feeling
fine since his recent operation, but
had been warned by his doctors not
to exert himself for several weeks, but
in spite of the warning, he felt called
upon to say few words to his friends
in Winslow, many of whom are per-
sonal acQuaintances. Mr.. McAdoo
said:
The issue Of this campaign is be-
tween reaction and privilege, as Op-
posed to the people and progress. The
election of Coolidge means another
four years of special privilege domi-
nation. The spectacle of corruption
and control of legislation by special
interests at Washington has set bad
example to the whole country, which
is having the effect @Of le5sening re-
spect for law and government. If you
want progress and clean government"
says Mr.. McAdoo, vote the demo-
cratic national ticket. You will then
be assured of legislation like that
in the Wilson administration, when
labor was protected equally with in
dustry> through the workings of a
tariff act, based ON a fair deal; when
the Federal Reserve Act, the Farm
Credits Act and other policies bene-
fetal to the country and it's people
were created. Mr.. Coolidge has no
sympathy with the common men
and women of America. He will not
approve a law guaranteeing even
tombstone insurance to the better
ance of the world war, but he up
held the Mellon plan, which proposed
the largest percentage Of reduction
in taxation to the wealthy class and
to the special interests which had
benefited most by the valor of those
soldiers upon the field of battle. He
vetoed the bill to increase the com
pensation of underpaid employees of
the postal service.
"The scandal and corruption of
Washington cannot be dismissed with
the claim of Mr.. Coolidge's defenders
that he is personally honest and that
the guilty people have been indicted
and will be prosecuted.
Special privilege is chuckling be-
cause it has accomplished what it Is
always trying to dot has divided
the forces of progressiveism and ex-
poets to ride to an easy victory in
the November election. l want the
progressives to unite on man who
can be depended upon to defeat the
forces of reaction. That man is
John w. Davis. He can and will
give you progressive administration
for the next four years.
LA Toilette cannot win" said Mr..
'and it makes no difference
what we say of him at this time, but,
my friends, this division of democratic
and progressive strength makes an
for the continuation of re-
action and corruption in the White
House and, sbeyond a question, the
present administration is responsible
for the most stupendous orgy of cor
ruption and graft in all the history of
politics, and every good citi
zen should join in turning them out.
II hope" he said, that my friends,
and l count them by the hundreds in
will vote and use their in
iuence in the behalf of John W. Davis,
who, am sure, will give himself up
70 the fulfllment of the pledges OF
he democratic platform. which will
solve the many serious and perlexing
questions confronting the American
people today"
Mr. McAdoo was met at Holbrook
1y Sam w. Proctor, manager of the
Victory Organization for
Northern Arizona, who accompanied
lin to Winslow, in order to discuss
With him some of the affairs touching =
he national campaign.
