HAYDEN CARRIES ON

Prescott--A distinct victory
for copper, one of Arizona's
principal products, was recorded
recently when representative
Carl Hayden secured considera
ton of the red metal on fair
basis for construction of power
lines in connection with the
Coolidge dam on the Gila river.
Mr.. Hayden, informed by the
Arizona Industrial Congress that
bids had been called for July 80
for 80 miles of aluminium wiring
from the Coolidge damsite to
Hayden, appealed to Indian Com.
missioner Burke and G. r. Old
berg, engineer in charge of the
project, for rejection of these
bids and calling of competitive
bids 10 include copper wiring.
The congressman received
word this afternoon that author
ity had been asked by Oldberg
to reject bids and recommends
tions made that new bids be call
ed to include copper wiring.

REMEDY FOR ACCIDENTS

Prevention Of grade crossing
accidents is so easy and simple
that there is no excuse for such
accidents. All that is necessary,
is to look in both directions to
see whether a train is approach.
ing. If train is approaching,
stop, and let it go by.
When there is more than one
track, wait after a train has pass
ed, to make sure another is not
approaching on one of the other
tracks.
Where a crossing does not af.
ford good vision. because of view
being obstructed by building,
trees, curves or embankments.
stop. look and listen before cross.
ing.
When signals are in action,
crossing gates lowered or flag.
man is at crossing, train is ap.
preaching; and driver should
stop and let it pass.
These are reasonable regula.
tions. If observed they will
prevent grade crossing accidents
as effectively as grade changes.
When not observed. the drivers
license should be cancelled.
In othes words. by such regu-
lations, crossing accidents can
be averted without loading up
municipalities with taxes for
grade changes.

LIGHTNING STRIKES POWER LINE

During Mondays storm the
power line from Nogales to the

lightning and the company's mill
was put out of commission. The
lightning wrecked the power line
tower at Red mountain, broke
several insulators at other points
along the line and severed the
line at one place, which ground

were sent out from Nogales to
repair the damage, but up. to last
night the Big Jim company was
still unable to start it's machinery
owing. to the lack of power.
Superintendent J. j. Peterson
said last evening that he expect.
ed to be able to start the mill
running again today.

LABOR SUPPORT GRATIFYING

nouncing himself as a supporter
of E. e. Ellinwood for governor
was made by that candidate Wed
nesday at Prescott, Ellinwood
also pays high tribute to labor
in his statement and promises
labor a square deal if elected
governor.
1t is gratifying to me that
Mr.. Corrigan enrolled in support
of my candidacy for governor,
Ellinwood states. It is in accord
with the attitude, of many other
labor representatives whom I
have talked with during my tour
of this state"
/ am sure that those direct.
ing my campaign are as pleased
as [ am, to have Mr.. Corrigan
assisting in actual management
of the campaign. [ want labor
to participate every where in my
campaign. The increasing mum.
ber from the ranks Of labor who
are taking an active part in the
work is conclusive evidence that
organized labor has confidence
in me-"
This confidence I shall never
violate when governor. want
the consent and advice of labor
and labor is entitled to and shall
have representation wherever
its interests are involved"
In my contacts with labor in
Arizona. [ have found the repre-.
sentatives of that group to be
working for the interests of the
state. O.ce, while in active
charge of an organization | made
it union organization because
under the union rules, men we're
more efficient and better results
could be obtained. [ refer to the
Bisbee Review plant which is
now affiliated with the Typogra.

1t is thus a pleasure for me
to see that men actively engaged
in furtherirg the interests of
labor are in favor of my candi
dacy. And I am sure if [ am
chief executive of this state, /
will never give them cause to
regret their support.

DUFFY is COMPETENT HOLD
PUBLIC OFFICE.

One of the prominent men of
the state who should have a high
place ia the interest of world
war veterans is Judge Frank J..
Duffy Of Nogales. Though Judge
Duffy was too old to take an &C
tive part in the World War he
has a strong regard for the mem
bers Of the various War Veteran
Societies as be contributed son
and son in law to his country
during the great conflict.
Mr.. Duffy has been resident
of Arizona for the past 38 years
and is we'll known by the old
timers Of his adopted state. A
| native of New York state Mr..
Duffy was born on April 3, 1866.
He graduated from st. Lawrence
University. at Canton, in that
state in June, 1888, with the de
gree of bachelor of science, and
in the same year came to Ari
zona and settled in Phoenix.
After five years spent in educ.
ational work in Phoenix, Tempe
and Globe, be located in Nogales
where he soon became identified
with the growth and upbuilding
of the community and where bis
sterling character and strong
personality were Immediately re.
cognized. Always an ardent be.
lever in the Democratic prin
ciple of equal rights to all and
special privilege to none he has
always taken active part in pol
itics. His first elective office
was that of Justice of Peace in
Nogales, then the largest pre-
cinct in southern Pima county,
to which Office be was elected in
1896 and again in 1898, and in
the general election of 1900, be
was elected District Attorney ip
Santa Cruz county and served
two terms-until the end of the
year 1904.
He was a member of the 25th,
the last territorial legislature,
which convened in January, 1900,
his name being identified with
much of the constructive legis
lation that is associated with the
history of that session.
Upon Arizona's being admitted
to statehood be was elected the
first Judge of the superior court
of Santa Cruz. county by aclama.
tion as it we're, having no op.
position in the primary of gen.
eral election. In October, 1918,
he resigned and resumed the
general practice of his profes
sion, since which time be has
been recognized as one of the
leading lawyers of the state.
In 1914 he was elected by the
Democratic party council as
chairman of the state central
committee. The result of his
stewardship being the election
of every candidate on the state
democratic ticket with one ex.
ception.
In addition to the foregoing,
Mr.. Duffy was for four years
city attorney and has served as
a member of the state fair com.
mission.
Com bining as he does all the
qualities. accomplishments, and
virtues of man with a life ed
ucation in law and law making,
man of scholarly attainments
and breeding, a gentleman of most
pleasing personality and address.
a keen student of state and ma
tional affairs, his friends admit
that, and no man in public life
within the state of Arizona, to
day, is better fitted than he is
for the serious, ardous and diplo
matte duties of representative in
congress. .-Whipple Echo.

Delight Audience With

Dainty fays, pretty flowers, a

The rendition of the various parts

an older age. Costumed as elves
sprites and flowers, raindrops, sun
shine, bees and butterflies, they per
formed their parts with grace and
