date Immediately after the close
of the Third State Legislature,
1917, of which the Honorable
VIM. P. Mahoney was leading
member of the Senate-a leader
in all progressive and human
tartan legislation.
AS the clipping is in a meas

which Bill Mahoney conducted his
office Of sheriff Of Mohave

years, and of the just, fearless
and impartial manner in which
he will conduct the affairs Of the

addressed a large and enthusiastic
gathering at Library park.
Mr.. Douglas was introduced BY

"The passage Of the Swing

said, "for that reason I am not

full in that fight means that the
river will have to be developed
in such a way as to permit this
state to derive the maximum adj
vantages in the way of taxation
of power and reclamation of

Mr.. Douglas spoke, in addition
to the Colorado river question, of
the problems facing the farmers
of the country and especially here
in Arizona. He believed, he said,
that any national fixing of the
farmers problems should be de-
termined to a large extent by the
prosperity and problems of the
individual communities. He
pointed out that Arizona's farm
problems were Of a different ma
ture than those Of the other parts
of the nation.
He said that he believed in a
universal draft and that the re-
sources of the nation should be
drafted to the work of solving
the problems and needs Of the
nation in a great crisis.

Ask Yourself This Question =

"What evidence has there been, in YOUR cc..;7-
ty, of any attempt on the part of Ellnwoc1's
friends to corrupt the electorate?"
The answer in all truth, must be NONE!
The same answer is true of the other thirteen
counties of this state.
Don't permit your intelligence to be insu,ted
by vapue whispers of tremendous sums Icing
expended. in other counties, to corrupt the vot-
ers in favor Of EllinWood
You have not seen any evidence of this and
neither have the whispering henchmen Of Hunt
who are trying to poison the minds of the voters
with this kind of smoke screen.
They never charge that the money is being ex-
pended in the county where they are talking,
but always say that this is going on in the 9TH
er counties.
The next time anyone gives you any OF this
propaganda, simply tell them "SHOW ME!'
They cannot, for the simple reason that there
is no truth in it.

LOSES EYE IN
STRANGE ACCIDENT

DR.. r. C. Magill, of New Hope,
was recently called to attend the VIC
tim of a strange accident at Wrights-
town. Louis Baylor, of that place,
was injured while stocking the fur
mace of Boyd Weitzel, by whom he
was employed. An explosion occurred
while he was shoveling coal into the
furnace, and among other minor in
juries his eye was penetrated by
particles blown from the furnace.
DR.. Roberts, of Wlcombe, first
treated the injuries, but found that
the injury to the eye demanded the
attentions of a specialist, and DIR.
Magill was called. The electric mag
net used by DIR. Magill would not
draw out the foreign particles, and
it wxs concluded that they were not
of metals subject to magnetism. An
X-Ray located the particles and
showed that the sight of the eye was
destroyed. So an operation was per-
formed and the eye removed. The
foreign particles proved to be of
copper, and it was concluded that
in some way a cartridge had gotten
into the coal that was put into the
furnace. A coal gas explosion would
not have been so severe.
AS soon as the incisions for the
operation heal, a gold ball will be
placed in Mr. Baylor's eye socket for
an artificial eye.

Plan To Haze
Noted ViOiiniSf

Lambertville-A highly commend
able effort is being made by the
Coryell's Ferry Music Association
to secure Max Rosen, nationally
known violinist, for a concert in
this city. The Association embraces
membership from both sides of the
Delaware, and is ambitious to bring
t. the community some Of the finer
expressions of music.
A committee is arranging with the
Strand Theatre owners to have the
concert in their aud forum so that
seating capacity can be provided for
a large audience. Reserved seats can
then be more conveniently arrange },
and greater comfort provided for the
audience. Special rates will be made
for school students, and with a well
organized group of patrons for the
concert it is expected that the public
can be sufficiently interested to make
the affair a success.
Mr.. Rosen is one Of the most prom
inent of the younger artists, and his
music will find grateful response in
all who hear his play. Miss Mary
Gillingham Brown, the prime mover
in the Association, is enthusiastically
working toward the success of the
venture, and is being assisted by
Mrs. G. A. Leavett, who is equally
enthusiastic in musical appreciation.

beauty that will prove a lure to

Gustavus Adolphus, of Sweden,
hoped to plant colony on the shores
of the Delaware about the middle OF
the seventeenth century. The next
years brought these God-fearing, IN
dustrious people to America.
They found home on the Delaware
and sought to build place of wor-
ship. Gloria Del was erected on tie
site of a block house built in 1869,
and used for divine worship until
