HOVAL A. SMITH MAKES
REPLY TO CARL HAYDEN

PHOENIX, Ark, Oct. Tt heard
Congressman Carl Hayden make a
statement at Gilbert. Ariz., on Septem-
Der 80, that Arizonians could not eX-
pect to get tariff on copper because
our Arizona voters gave little to the
republican campaign fund, and that the
eastern manufacturers gave huge sums.
In consequence of which. the manu-
facturers have been and are given pro-
lection, while Arizona has been and
is left unprotected In other words,
he said thai favors from the party,
now in control of the president, the
senate and the house of representa-
times, are distributed on purely COM
mercial basis and that economic justice
is denied all who are unable to pay
for it,, Hoval A. Smith, prominent
Arizona mining engineer, said on WedA
nesday night in an address at Phoenix
at Cameron rally.
81 resent such expressions as the
foregoing and think it unworthy of
Congressman Hayden to advance so
hollow an argument in. his desperate
efforts to keep copper on the free list
"I maintain that Arizona will always
get justice from the present admin
istration and congress at Washington
provided the state sends efficient SEN
ators to Washington to safeguard her
interests. These men must have the
confidence of the administration and
they must belong to the party in
power.
Ralph Cameron belongs to the party
in power and wields tremendou sin
fluence in it. Cameron is on the pow
erful appropriations committee that
controls the pocketbook of the nation.
Cameron has brought more than
$10,0O0,000 in direct appropriations
alone to Arizona during his first five
years and seven months senatorial
service, due in considerable part to his
being a member of the party in power,
and in great part because of his go
getting ability.
Carl Hayden has been representing
Arizona in Washington since February,
1912, IA years and months. During
this period Hayden's party was in un-
disputed control of affairs in Wash
ington for at least six years. How
much did Hayden get for Arizona dur
ing this six years? Practically nothing.
parallel the achievements of Cam
eron and Hayden at Washington and
let the voters of Arizona compare the
work of these two men. Cameron, the
fiery, optimistic. go-getting Arizonian,
has obtained millions for Arizona, in
finitely more than Hayden ever secured
during his more than IA years at Wash
ington.
Hayden now says that Cameron
can not get tariff on copper Cam
eron says that he can and will get that
protection for the copper miner. Cam
eron is going to fight for a copper
tariff, while Hayden states that our
copper miner does not need protection,
but even though he did he says it could
influence opposing it at Washington.
Camgeron has always made good on
his promises and l am certain that the
voters much prefer to send back Cam
eron, who stands ever ready to fight
for any and all things beneficial to
his state.
Cameron is a fighter, a dynamo of
unlimited energy, never acknowledging
defeat, always trying, striving and
planning to obtain for Arizona every
thing that will aid in developing her
resources yand bettering the condition
OF her citizenship
Cameron got statehood for Arizona
and as early as 1911 proposed com
prehensive plan for the development of
