DOUGLAS DISPATCH SATURDAY MORNING. AUGUST M 1926

However, the real point is that the
solution of the river situation is not
so much one OF right as one of amica-
BILE settlement, the time for which is
propitious right now. California. be-
cause of her immense population. must
have water from the Colorado and have
it quickly. She VIII meet Arizona on
any kind of reasonable terms, and j
pledge myself that if elected, my first
official act will be to appoint a COM
mission of fair-minded men who will
do all in their power to bring about
this amicable solution. You have all
heard the phrase, save the Colorado
The question is not to save the Colo
rado, 1t has been saved too many times
already, but to use the Colorado that
we may derive revenue from it.
Concerning the reduction of taxes,
Judge Clark said in part: -Four years
ago, you were definitely promised a re-
duction in taxes, and today you have
the highest taxes in the history of the
state. This is largely due to the old
system of unlimited appropriations, ands
I pledge myself that if elected COVER
nor. l will veto every appropriation
that / do not consider fair and suffi-
cient for it's purpose"
On Banking.
Concerning the banking situation,
Judge Clark said in part: What we
need in the state banking system is a
fair revision of the banking laws.
believe that the best solution of this
problem is an association of the banks,
under which each bank is automatical-
ly forced to watch the others, with a
corresponding decrease in the number
Of banks"
II would like to touch upon the prob
lens of the farmers, but those prob
lens will be taken care of by the ma
tional and state policy now being
worked out" Judge Clark stated. Il
do want to say, however, that / am in
favor of fair tariff on copper that
will protect .Arizonas' interests, and 1
believe the best way to obtain this is
through the reelection of our republic
can senator, who will work with me-.
Such tariff will protect our mining,
from prospectors to smelters.'

badly wounded by bullets from them

trigger of his revolver. Marie Kelly,
who works in the drug department,
of the city market, across the street
from the scene, declared when inter-
viewed by a reporter that she saw
practically all of the affray. She
said:

that it was the baby bandit I saw
no one standing near the boy when he
fell"
Blanche Davis, 305 Fifth street, was
also interviewed by a reporter She
related that she was standing in a
doorway only a few feet from where
the shooting took place and saw tho
whole affair. when / first recog.
nized that something was about to
take place, I noticed car pass the
door and two men in it got out. 1t
seemed to me that the one who was
not driving pointed a revolver to,
ward the sidewalk and commenced
shooting. 1 never heard them say a
word"
Three representatives Of the news
papers interviewed three of the Of
ficers in the sheriff's office who were
at the scene at the time of the shoot
ing. This interview took place about
3 o'clock and the men were Federal
Officer Funston, Special Deputy Nor,
ris and Deputy Sheriff Fiscus. The
officers at that time appeared still
much wrought up over the affair and
seemed in a highly excited mood
when the newspaper men piled them
with questions.
Funston told them that he and
Morris had had the married sister
of the outlaw youth in their custody
earlier this morning and she was aid
ing them in trying to get the lad
to surrender. She told them, they
said, that she had delivered the
stolen car the brother had in his
possession to the sheriff, and had
almost persuaded him to give her his
gun and give himself up. She dros G
him down town, but he retained the
revolver, telling her, the officers
said, that he might need it to make
his escape After leaving him, the
sister turned over the car to the
sheriff and told the two men to be
on the lookout for him.
1--WE let the sister out at the fed
eral building" Funston stated, land

bandit. We saw him standing on the

pend more and more, on the homo
market. In opposing the price

tended if it were attempted, it would
only lend in a vicious circle"
The cooperative marketing move
ment he endorsed as sound and prac-
tical, explaining that the prices now
paid for farm products by the con-
sumer and those obtained by the
producer for the commodities were
too far apart. AS for credit facilit-
les, he added, through the farm loan
banks and other agencies and with
the money condition as it now is,
ample facilities, exist in this direc-
tion for the farmer.
While declaring he did not wish
to discuss politics, Rosenwald said
the economic views of Coolidge were
entirely justified and he believed.
"the agitation against the president
in some sections of the country had
been exaggerated" The farmers, he
added now feel differently" toward

The clue is a gold brooch which
Edward Tierse, road house proprietor
Of Piscataway, near New brunswick
said he turned over to Ferd David
Middlesex county detective, in 1922.
The pin is not among the exhibits
and grand jury records now in the
possession of State Senator Simp-
SON, special prosecutor. Tierse told
Simpson he found the brooch between
the crabapple tree UNDER which the
bodies were found and the Phillips
farm house the day after the ais
covery of the double murder,
Senator Simpson learned of the
brooch in letter received at his
Jersey City office today from a New
Brunswick woman who said the pin
was in Tierse's possession. Simpson
left for Somerville upon the receipt
Of the letter.

Tierse denied he had the pin, saying
he had not seen it since turning ii

rests upon compliance with the law in
regard to the river situation.
~rhe Colorado IS not any states
river, but is the joint property of all
seven, and each of the others owns
rights which the people of Arizona
must recognize, whether they want to
or not. This fact may not be as pleas
ant as it has been pictured, but it. is
the truth and should be shown as such.
What is the status of the Colorado
river situation at the present time as
it affects us? AS people, we are OPP
posed to building the Boulder canyon
dam because the elevation of the
Boulder dam site is so low that a vast
section of Arizona land that needs wa
ter for irrigation purposes could not
get it from this dam by gravity.
There are only two first-class sites
for storage reservoirs in the entire can
70 nsystem. One of these is at Boulder
canyon, at the foot of the system. The
other is at Glenn canyon, well up to-
ward the head of the system, and it
has an even greater capacity than the
Boulder dam.
w nat are Ar1ZOnaS rights IN the
Colorado river situation? This is a
question that no candidate has yet un-
dertaken to state. You must agree
that before we hope to present our
claims in court we must first have a
clear understanding of our rights. The
only undisputed right that the people
of Arizona have to the Colorado river
is that which the people have acquired
by using water from the river for ir-
rigation. From the Colorado river,
Arizona draws water to irrigate about
10000 acres of land, while California
draws water for 100000 acres and has
now 100000 additional acres ready for
irrigation.
AriZOna's Dam.
'"The other right, this one not at all
certain, is Arizonas claim to the river
bed. I firmly believe that Arizona
really owns the bed of the Colorado
river, unless the title to the river bed
is reserved to the government under
the terms of the enabling act under
which Arizona was admitted

Friday afternoon the athletes of
Kennewick high will go forth to
avenge their basketball defeats
with baseball bat. The victim
will be team from Hartford high
and the game will be played on
their field. Only two good practic-
es have been held so far and the
members of the team are still
quite indefinite. Mylke, Brough-
man or King may catch, and Hud-
nall and Lincoln will probably get
chance to pitch. The infield is
not definitely settled either. Boy
er or Lincoln may play third; Cox
short; King or Boyer second; and
Soth, first. The infield is far from
a snappy combination as yet but
they may show better form in a
game.
The outfield has several aspir-
ants but there are not three out
standing players as yet. Several
players will probably be given a
chance to show their stuff.
Eleven players will make the
trip to Hanford which will be the
first time Kennewick has visited
there. The team is out to impress
them with Kennewick's superior
ity.
