ANOTHER CHANCE

The state legislature of Arizona
will have another chance to finish
the Rice-Springerville road and to
build the bridge over the Colorado
river near Lees Ferry, at it's next
session. At the request of the Ari-
zona delegation, congress has
agreed to give this state another
opportunity to match the money
put up for the purposes, after the
failure of the last legislature to
do so.
A hundred thousand dollars has
been appropriated for the Lees

WlnSlOW, Arizona.
Dear Sir
I wish to correct a false impress
sion that seems to exist around
Winslow concerning the injunction
against the city.
I understand that it is generally
thought around there that the pow
er company or myself originated
the injunction against the city
handling ice.
I wish to advise that such is
not the case. The action was taken
by citizens who were disinterested
so far as I was concerned and l
did not know about it until it was
we'll started I was later request
ed to sign the bond which was re-
Quired and [ did so.
AS you know, I had no interest
in the matter personally. I would
like for my friends to know that
I did not start the action nor sign
the injunction as, it seems, is gen
orally believed
Yours very truly,

Tariff was not among the twelve

natural resources. We rank first
in producing eighteen of the twenty
raw materials regarded as most i'm

DEMOCRATSS|T
TIGHT AS RACE
DRAWS TO CLOSE
Say G. 0. P. Like Dempsey
and Uther Champs, Is
Riding to a Fall.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON Oct. 3O.-With
Democratic leaders sitting tight and
Republicans optimistically claiming
last minute wave of strength, the
drew near its close.
Tuesday, upward of 10000, 900
voters are expected to go to the polls
in forty-seven States to select one
third of the next United States Sen
ate and an entire House of Repre-
sentatives.
Democrats need nine Republican
seats and thrity-siX in the House to
win control. Republicans concede
,priVat ely that the Democrats have a
good chance to win four Senate seats
and that nine are doubtful.
Tonight Candidates and stump ora
tors generally will make final ap-
peals by radio and at mass meetings.
Monday will be devoted chiefly to or
ganization efforts to get out the
vote.
The campaign is closing without
any display of national excitement
or enthusiasm such as usually at
tends a closely contested race for
control of Congress.
The following statement alone
came from Democratic senatorial
headquarters:
"By Representative James V.
McCIintocII, chairman of the House
Democratic speakers bureau-This
has been a bad year for title-h0ld-
ers. Champions in tennis, golf,
pugiIism and baseball have all
been dethrOned. The Republican
party, present title-hOlders in poll
tics, is in for licking. DemOc-
racy will be victorious next Tues
day"
Republicans, on the other hand,
were on the offensive, with circula-
ton of the Mellon tariff statement
attacks upon the Democratic tariff
stand and urgent appeals to stand
by the President"
Chairman Phipps of the Republic
an senatorial committee issued a
statement saying:
Commerce, industry and bust
ness in general are fOurishing, the
country is in state of widespread
prosperity which, under continued
Republican administration will
spread to every individual section"
A White House statement has de-
MED that Coolidge had expressed any
choice in the Illinois senatorial race.
Stories had been circulated in Chi
cago that Coolidge was opposed to
Frank L. Smith, Republican sena-
torial nominee, because he accepted
contributions from public utilities
magnates while he was chairman OF
the State public utilities commission.
