300 Spectators At
Ladies' Swimming
Race Last Sunday

In the second local swimming
race of the season, held at Clear
Creek last Sunday, and which was
staged for lady entrants only, first
place was taken by Marguerite
Hosler, with Virginia Ward second.
Only three fair swimmers entered
the contest, but they drew gal
Iery of almost three hundred spec
tators.
Clear Creek, "Winslow's Beach" ,"
has been exceptionally popular this
summer, owing to the unusually hot
weather, which, however, has been
mild compared with other sections
of northern Arizona, and the race
last Sunday, as we'll as the one held
the Sunday previous, created much
interest.
Continued agitation for muni-
cipal swimming pool in Winslow
attests to the generality of the feel
ing that such a recreational spot is
necessity. Although Clear Greek
is we'll patronized throughout the
season, it's distance from the city
prevents many people from visit
ing it often, and it may in time be
superseded by a smaller and more
centrally located. pool. However.
it will always attract number Of
people who prefer larger and
more natural body of water in
which to display their talents and
enjoy their water sports.
The first prize was bathing
suit. awarded by Babbitt Brothers
Trading company to the winner.

two or three weeks from now? l
do not believe Arizona is going to
be bought. You are pioneers and
have helped to make this country,
and are you going to give away
your heritage? If these seventeen
dams are built, this six million
horsepower will make this the
greatest and richest State in the
Unoin. We are fighting for the fu-
ture. l would be false if l did not
go forth and fight. And if 1 am
running and get to be George the
Sixth" 1 am likely to be George
the Seventh" also before they get
through with me- They have hired
speakers and have others hired.
They have probably offered you
some of their ducats. 1 hope they
did and that you accepted some of
them. Put them in your pockets
and then vote as you please. They
are paying the press, and the press
needs money. But 1 think most Of
the editors will vote for me be-
cause they think there will be an
other fight some day and they will
get some more ducats!
81 think this is enough. I have
spoken forty-five minutes. I am
glad that, without any brass band,
with a very brief notice, the house
is comfortably filled with the intel
ligent and splendid citizens of this
country. I have said only the truth.
1t is a great battle, and if you do
not fight you will not get any
where. Back in the Revolutionary
War my ancestors fought. And
they were fighting for great prin-
ciple-that they might worship the
God they desired in the way they
desired, and they did not listen to
the dictates of an autocratic Gov
ernment. Since 1776 we have gone
through many trying years, but
through it all Old Glory has been
a great solace to us, because, un-
der it's folds, there are free men
and free women, and after the
throes of the Revolution, the spirit
that prompted our ancestors to
come to the great West is still
with us, and will lbe, think, on the
7th day of September. 1 thank you. ."

Los Angeles says the Arizona press
opposes Hunt. / hear we were ex-
pending a lot of money. But 1 tell
you that, on Monday, in Phoenix,
bids will be opened for the con-
struction of a highway from Can
yon Diablo to Canyon Padre. WE
ARE GOING ON WITH OUR WORK
IF THEY DO OPPOSE. Do you
realize that they have got seventy
maintenance forces in this state?
Some have On truck and some have
two. There is where the money
goes-for gas. Do you want to stop
road building? Our food roads
have brought into this State hum
dreds of thousands of cars and will
continue to do SO. 1 am going to
build roads, even if Uncle Jimmy
don't want to pay the taxes. There
are so many things to say on this
momentous question that comes be-
fore us. A question that goes to
the very root of our existence. The
only question in Arizona is the
solving of the Colorado problem.
All other stuff is camOuflage. They
are trying to throw dust in your
eyes. That is the one problem. My
distinguished opponent says that
when he gets to be Governor (Lord
help us) he will confer with the
other States. l have conferred with
other States. But do you realize
that two years ago, when l asked
a conference with the Governor of
California, he turned it down, and
then a Committee requested a
meeting with him, and he turned
that down. The first time in his
tory that the Governor of one State
refused to receive a Committee
from another State. They thought
they would have the Boulder Can
yon dam. I am going to continue to
fight them. If we had not fought
during the World War, they would
not have won the War.
"In 1917 wnen the Allies-I mean
when the Central Powers, the Ger
mans, were pushing the English
and French lines back, they were
in a terrible predicament. They
needed supplies. They came to
Wall Street and got five hundred
millions of dollars to stop the on
slaught of the German forces. In
a couple of months the German
lines kept extending, and then Wall
Street thought they would lose
their money, and then they had the
great idea that America must go in
and must go to save the world for
democracy. And sixty thousand of
the flower of American manhood
was killed in battle and more than
a million disabled. Now, some of
the same fellows that are trying to
control Arizona want to cancel the
French debt SO as to sell little
more copper. I say the French
should pay every farthing of their
debts. Right is right and justice is
justice. That same force is trying
to undermine the manhood and wo-
manhood of Arizona by buying this
State. This man is spending more

eff Arizona can allow the cor

GUEST DESCRIBES
 CHAPiIN PARTY
Friend of Comedians Wife Does
 NOt Blame Her

Los Angeles, Dec. 10 R-The after midnight party at the Charles Chaplin mansion, which was de- scribed as the immediate cause of the separation of the film star and his wife, would be considered some what dulr' by the younger genera ton. At least that Is Miss Helen De Laine's opinion Of it.
 Miss De Laine is a young friend of Mrs, Lita Grey Chaplin and was present. She gave her version of it to newspapermen last night.
 "The party was very circumspect and quiet" Miss De Laine declared. Tt was not at all like frequently published accounts of parties given in the homes of movie stars.
 About 10 of us left the Biltmore hotel about 12:3O a. n., and motored to the Chaplin home at Beverly Hills, arriving there shortly before l o'clock. After we entered. someone started the phonograph and some Of us were sitting around and others dancing, when I noticed Lita sudden ly leaving the room.
 "Then someone came in and called her mother. Mrs. Spicer, and she also left the room. After a short time, they both returned and Lita stopped the music and said, The party is all off. I'm sorry and every one left.
 This threw a damper on the party. There had been no liquor served either at the home or at the hotel"

RUNAWAY FREIGHT CARS
 DRIFT ACROSS MAIN ST
Crossing Tenders Shouts Prevent Automobiles From Being Crushed
 and Pedestrians Run Down.

Lives of Main street pedestrians and passing motorists were en- dangered yesterday afternoon at about o'clock when six freight cars which had been switched to the tracks immediately west of the Main street crossing broke from their moorings and drifted across Main street before the gate tender on duty could lower the gates. No damage was done although several narrow escapes were observed.
 According to the gate tender. the engine had just left the cars and had returned to the switch yards near the round house at Elm street when. without warning, the cars began to descend on Main street. Shouting a warning to motorists and pedestrians. the gate tender tried to lower the gates and succeeded in getting the north gates down before the cars blocked the street. He was unable to lower the south gates because of automobiles and street cars under them.
 Several pedestrians were badly frightened by their narrow escape and motorists just missed colidinc with the oncoming cars, stopped Cnly by the gatcman's shouts. The railroad officials and the train crew could give no reason for the fail ure of the brakes to hold the cars. IS there is no appreciable slope at the spot where they were located.

RESTLESS SANDS
 MADE INTO PARK
Chicago Is Utilizing It's Famous
 Dunes

Chicago, Dec. 10. R)-Sand from the shifting dunes of Indiana and Michigan is sustaining much of Chi cago's new front yard. It also has obliterated many railroad grade crossings.
 To push the edge of Lake Mtchi- gan a half mile or more from the original shore line for distance Of 25 miles, mountains of the material have been poured into the Lake. Dredges, steam shovels and ships are still sluicing the shifting ma tarial in place, later to become hills and esplanades
 Specially built ships bring the sand from the Indiana and Mlchi- gan shores. It is pumped into the holes and then elected with large quantities of water by centrifugal nurnps behind breakwaters, which hold it in place.
 Coated With Soil
 The finely divided material melts into a compact mass with the water exuding at the top and a coating or good soil makes the created land suitable for park purposes. Ashes and other clean refuse, debris tt wrecked buildings and earth exca- vated from tunnels and basements' also are dumped In the arrears to be filled. Dredges pump mud from te lake just out side the break waters and scows haul dredged silt from the Chicago and Calumet rivers.
 With these filling substances Grant Park, 3 miles long, in front of the downtown business quarter has been made. A drive Of many miles has been built half mile from the original shore, while stlll another will be built. A half mlie further in the lake another drive Is to be built. It will be an ,slann miles long and nearly a half miie wide, with great stretch or water between it and the shore Ill.
