CLARK FOR GOVERNOR
douglas Dispatch)

Judge E. S. Clark, one of the most
prominent attorneys of Arizona, has
announced his candidacy for governor
on the republican ticket. The Doug
las Dispatch is glad to welcome into
the field of candidates this distin-
guished exponent of the law. A resi-
dent of Arizona for Al years, Judge
Clark is widely known and is a
staunch republican. He has been
prominently identified with the devel-
opment Of the state, has served as
county attorney, both for Coconino
and Yavapai counties, and during the
administration of Governor Klbbey,
was attorney general Of the state.
Judge ]. c. Phillips of the northern
part Of the state, whose name has
been prominently mentioned for the
republican candidacy, has officially
announced that he will not be can
didate and that he favors the candl-
dacy Of Judge Clark.
Judge Clark declares that he is I'M
alterably in favor of the eighteenth
amendment. He will issue a formal
statement within day or so, he an
nounces, in which he will set forth
his stand on prohibition, the Colorado
river development plan and his be-
liefs and ideas as to a party platform.
In the fall of 1920 Judge Clark was
a candidate for the United States SEN
ate, having been defeated in that race
by Senator Ralph H. Cameron. Judge
Clark is a Kiwanian, member Of
the Hiram club, an Elk, and a Mason
The entrance Of this distinguished cit
izen into the republican gubernatoriaL
field as an assured candidate, means
that the democrats, with their wide
split between the Ellinwood and Hunt
factions, will have a hard time indeed
in the coming election. Judge Clark
is fighter, and will make a splendid
race for the chief executives chair.
He has been notified by friends
throughout the state that he Will be
given sincere backing in the race.

THE WASTE BASKET
IT'S CONTENTS
ARIZONA Republicanl

We have received a very frank and
ingenious letter which the writer be-
gins with the statement: 81 once fig
ured that | throw into my waste has-
ket every year at least $50 worth Of
literature which people send me in
the mistaken notion that | have moth
ing to do but read. You are probably
in the same situation"
That was a good beginning and it
had the effect of inducing US to read
in it's entirely the letter which without
such gripping approach would have
gone into the waste basket unread.
But we found nothing in it that would
have made any further correspond
ence between the writer and us mu-
tualIy profitable.
But we are passing the letter along
to some one else who we think may
be benefited by correspondence with
the writer. We are induced to do 50
partly because of the reputation of
the firm represented by the writer,
and partly because there is an accom-
panying stamped envelope.
But taking the opening paragraph
of the letter at q text, one cannot un-
dert.. to read much of the matter
which comes to the average desk. II
he did so he would get little else
done. Perhaps he misses something
now and then by a too indiscriminate
consignment of such literature to the
vast pbasket, but the chances are so
strongly in favor of his not missing

NT-ELLINWOOD ROW GAINS
MOMENTUM
Tucson Starr

\ LANoOAA 6keAl
Governor Hunt has spoken at last,
but in speaking, he fails to toss his
hat into the Democratic gubernatorial
ring. Perhaps we have done him an
injustice in believing that his with
drawals announcement was a piece of
political strategy then the pri-
mary campaign barely is under way.
Many things may happen III the next
few months. In the only reference he
makes to himself as possible candi-
date, he says: Irrespective of wheth-
er | am candidate or not, it is evil
dent that it is the policies for which
this administration has stood that are
under fire and which are being as
sailed" In that he is correct; but
his answers to the charges contain
ed in E. E. Ellinwood's announcement
are extremely weak.
II am shocked, 1 am astounded," :"
replies the governor to charges of
extravaganza and adds, 'that the
state Of Arizona will never again be
operated for less than it is now" If
that be the case, and we do not for
one moment believe it true, then Ari-
zona is indeed in an unfortunate con-
dition.
The governor tries to parry Mr.. FL
linwood's charges by saying that FL
linwood, as a member of the Consti-
tutional Convention, refused to sign
the constitution. Mr.. Ellinwood did
refuse to sign that document, and his
refusal is to his credit and foresight.
The Constitution contained the recall
of judges; Mr. Ellinwood knew that
President Taft would veto the docu-
ment with it containing such meas
ure; as Mr.. EllinWood forecast, the
President sent the Constitution back
to the convention which removed the
recall of judges. Taft then signed it,
and the first state legislature put it
back in the Constitution. Governor
Hunt, in mentioning this incident,
tells only part of the story, as a dis
credit to Mr.. Ellinwood, while the
whole story is a distinct credit to the
lawyers ability.
The governor alludes to the Bisbee
deportation in 1917, trying to connect
Mr.. Ellinwood with the actual depor
tation Of 1900 men from the mining
camp. That is half, a small half, of
the actual facts. Mr.. EIlinwood was
not advised that the deportation was
to take place, in fact, those who en-
gineered the deportation took particu-
lar care to see that Mr.. Elllnwood did
not know that the deportation was to
take place, for they knew that he was
a lawyer who stood squarely for law
and order and against anyone taking
law into their own hands and would
do everything to block the deporta-
ton. When Mr.. Ellinwood first
learned of the deportation it was well
under way and nothing could have
stopped it.
OF course, Governor Hunt mention
ed the fact that Mr.. Ellinwood was
president of Arizona's largest bank
(Mr Ellinwood resigned before de-
parting for the east dast week., and
that among his law clients have been
large corporations. Both these facts
are distinctly to Mr.. Ellinwood's cred

VOTING IS OUTLAWED

A western state just published a book of it's
election laws and regulations. 1t takes 295 pages
of fine print, which few ever read.
There are so many laws and regulations gov
ernng registration and voting, that half the cit
liens do not know whether they are entitled to go
to the polls or not, whether they vote after
they get there. Result, fewer and fewer people
take part in elections.
In many precincts almost no one votes but the
election officers, the judges and clerks; and the
cost of elections has run up as high as a dollar
per ballot cast and counted. Some of the eastern
states have even more voigminous laws and reg
ulations
Manhood and womanhood suffrage has be-
come thing of the past, and legislatures are try
ing to hold fewer elections, and hold all general
and local elections on the same day Multiplicity
of lawmalzing and regulations tends to break
down popular government.

Editor P. r. Mitten of the Chandler Arizonan,
was in Flagstaff last week attending the good
roads meeting. He unanimously elected
mayor of Chandler recently, so we presume he
will not do much but travel from now on, spending
the fruits of the office. 1t seems that Editor
Mitten had cinch on being reelected mayor.
There were some three hundred letter heads all
printed with his name on them, consequently he
was elected to save this great waste to the COM
munity, at least so Mitten suggests. He further
declares in his inaugural address: I'VE are on
the lob now: EXPECT during the tenure of the pres
ent term to be 'hard boiled" When you come
in to see us on official business take off your
hat" This goes to show what heights an editor
can attain if he stays with the job of running
newspaper long enough.
