LARGE CROWD OF
DOUGLAS PEOPLE
HEAR CLARK AT
LOCAL MEETING
Candidate for Republican
Nomination for Governor
Pleases Audience.
EXPLAINS RIVER PLAN
COmmOn-Sense Appeal of
Points He Brings Out
Wins Many Votes.

One of the largest crowds yet drawn
by political candidate in Douglas,
heard Judge E. S. Clark. candidate for
the republican nomination for COVER
nor make a stirring appeal for fair
ness in the Colorado river project dur
ing his address in the Tenth street
park Friday night. Judge Clark also
touched upon the need for reduction
in state expenses, with a correspond
ing lessening of taxes; a revision of
the banking laws; the problems of the
farmers; the need of proper tariff on
copper and the moral standards of the
nation, but the vital issue of his ad-
dress, like that of the state at pres
ent, was the Colorado river project
The outstanding feature of Judge
Clarks address was the commonsense
appeal of his points. He used elo-
quence, yes, but it was the fair-mind-
ed, sober1thinking tone of his address
that appealed most to his listeners.
Hundreds of persons came upon the
platform after the address to congrat-
ulate the judge on his speech and the
sincere, fair platform on which he is
seeking the nomination. There is no
question but that Judge Clark gained
tremendous prestige by his visit here.
After a very able Introduction by
Charles Fleming and a few remarks in
which he stated that he has lived In
Arizona "A years and been prosecut-
ing officer for 16 years, Judge Clark
began his main address as follows:
You have the right to demand of.
every candidate his views on questions
of deep interest to the people of the
state. Of those questions, the first and
most important is the Colorado river
situation, and will tell you at the
start that l am not among those who
hold the rosiest view of that situation.
II do believe, however, that the Col-
orado river situation holds the largest
benefit to the state and offers the
greatest avenue to the prosperity of
Arizona of anything before the state
today. Anything worth having is
worth fighting for, and it usually has
to be fought for. TO obtain things
worthwhile usually takes both time
and common sense, and as yet we
haven't shown much of either in this
matter.
Not Birthright.
81 want to dispel the common Illus
ion that Arizona has birthrlght To-
the Colorado river. If we have any
such birthright, it is only in common
with the seven other states OF the
Colorado river basin, and even Mexlso.
All we can claim for Arizona is that
Arizona has a greater share than any
other state Any right we have or claim
is not a birthright or heritage, but that

farm products, Senator Capper, re-
publican, Kansas, long leader Oh
the farm bloc in the senate, declared
at the summer White House TO-DAY.
The Kansas senator also predicted
that as aresult of the congressional
elections in the west there would be
a tronger demand than ever In the
new congress for agricultural legls-
lation along the price stab1l1zatlon
lines of the McNary- -Haugen bill that
was defeated in the recent session.
The views of Capper were set
forth during a visit to President
Coolidge and in picturing a gener-
ally prosperous condition in the west
he was joined by another summer
White House guest, Julius Rosen-
wald, of Chicago, chairman of the
board of the Sears Roebuck and
company, who reported to the presl-
dent on business and economic con-
ditions generally.
The Kansas and Illinois men, how
ever. differed as to what measures
should be adopted by the government
in it's basic program for aiding the
agricultural industry, the latter op-
nosins the price sterilization views
set forth by Capper. Other views
of the agricultural situation, how
ever, are to be received by Coolidge
