l wish to state to the voters of Ben
ton county my reasons for coming out
as candidate for State Representa-
tive. ] enjoy the honor and appreciate
the responsibility of Legislative work.
However, that isn't sufficient reason
to cause me to enter the dirtiest po-
litical fight that has ever been staged
in this state. Into this fight has come
questionable methods, vsottical' jeal-
ousies, bitterness and hatred. n
Our representative has entered into
tkis squabble without reserve, with
out proper regard to the dignity Of
his office and the interest of his con-
stituents. The fight which he put up
in the legislature is ended and he is
now. coming before his constituents,
seeking vindication Of his record, jus
tificaticn of his conduct, in that fight.
The republicans of Benton county
Judge that record must express APP
proval or disapproval of his conduct.
: | have hesitated about entering this
fight as candidate because of my re-
luctance to bare such an abortive re-
cord. His conduct has brought humi-
liation and reproach to the good citi-
zens of Benton county. Such language
as menace, blockhead and liar" used
in speaking of the chief executive of
a great state is inexcusable and has
never been endorsed by any group of
intelligent and self-respecting Ameri-
can citizens.
In the name of Republicanism, in
the behalf of decent citizenship, de-
clare the conduct of our legislator to
never been endorsed by any group of
and un-American. That his record
shows an utter disregard Of the merits
of important questions coming before
him for consideration, his conduct con-
trollcd by jealousy, bitterness and hat
red completely renders him unfit as
a legislator.

sent and regard as despicable, any eff
fort on his part to transmit to his
neighbors and friends this feverish

There are all sorts of routes to sue.
cess in life, all manner of introduce
tions to the business of living. 1t is
quite certain that John w. Graham,
as little boy in Rockport, Indiana,
selling papers out of school hours,
did not imagine that he was introduc-
ing himself to career built on pa
per foundation. He had the agencies
for several papers from nearby cities:
Indianapolis, Louisville, st. Louis,
The Spokane woman. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1921-1935, 1926-11-25

Evansville, and one or two others. A
little newsstand grew out of that
while he was still in school, then he
moved into corner of local store
Ambition is a restless citizen in
boys soul; Rockport became too
small, so he went to a sister in Min
neapolis, and there got the city angle
on the paper business through connec-
ton with a stationery store
One day he read, in a western
newspaper, something about the little
town of Spokane Falls" From that
time on the travelling men were beset
with questions about Spokane Falls"
until one finally gave him some real
information. He wrote to s. Heath,
then a stationer here, and secured a
job, coming to Spokane in April, 1889
the year from which this city dates
history-the year of the fire. The
town was in ashes when the ambitious
youngster asked Mr.. Heath whether
he intended to start into business
again. When Heath said "he was
through" rush order for $500 worth
of stationers' supplies went to Port
land, and three days later the John
w. Graham store was in running order
in tent. The first real store was
where the Touraine Hotel now stands,
and later that year Mr.. Graham moved
into frame building on the present
site of the gas company. w. c. Drury,
who is still with the firm, began
work in the second location.
The John w. Graham store has 300
employees now, and more than 25 of
them have 20 years or more of serv-
ice to their credit. Mr.. Drury, with
81 years to his credit, is the real long
distance man.
Two disastrous fires have been the
only breaks in the consistent record
of growth and expansion which cul-
minated last week in the opening of
the fine new store which is the center
of large system of warehouses and
shipping rooms. 1t is the visible sign
of the Graham business in Spokane.

CADSDEN BEAUTY
SHOP ENLARGED

The Gadsden Beauty Shop, operated
by Miss Margaret Chancellor, is being
enlarged and remodeled to accommo-

An additional room is being furnished
and equipped with beauty shop acces-
sories. The work will be completed
within few days and will allow the
shop the advantage of entrances on
three sides.
Among the added features of the
shop will be barber employed for
bobbing women's hair, bathtub facili-
ties for giving reducing treatments, fa-
cilities for giving scalp treatments to
men and special manicuripg desk

also equipped to give permanent waves

CLARK EXPLAINS
HOW TO LOWER
STATE EXPENSE
lsneoial to The Dlspatchl

PHOENIX, Aug. 24.--"The power of
the governors veto, exercised on ex-
travagant appropriation bills is the
most effective weapon IN the COVER
nor's hands to cut down extravaganza
and waste of public funds declared
Judge e.. S. Clark, republican candi-
date for nomination for governor, in
an address delivered here before q
crowd which filled the Y. M. G.. A.
stadium to capacity
Had the first governor of the state
welded that power" the candidate de-
clared. "the present system of the log
rolling and legislative trading of votes,
a system very expensive for the tax
pawers, would never have grown up"
1T is not too late" Clark asserted,
'to use that veto power on extrava-
giant legislation and appropriation bills
and it will be used if | am elected gov
ernor'
Judge Clark also pointed out that the
farmers of the state need assistance
through legislation helping them to
carry out the principle of cooperative
organization. They also need better
agricultural education system, he de-
clared.
"Taxation," Clark declared, "can be
reduced and much waste in expendi-
lures is now being made to support a
political machine. A politician can be
eliminated, resulting in tax reduction"
