zona as its next Governor be |
chosen for the good of Arizona.
In choosing this Governor OF |
Arizona, look we'll to the qualifi-
cations of Sidney P. Osborn, and |
keep in mind that he is a native |
son of Arizona, a man who has at |
his back the heritage OF pioneer
stock, who has grown up in the
lore, the romance, the atmosphere
of Arizona, and who cannot but
have assimilated into his charac-
ter the fine attributes of manhood,
and a devotion of Ari
zona which gave him the precious
accolade of "native SON." Let this
column once more express the
thought that no man who claims
Arizona as his native state and is
placed in the Governors Office,

ship Estate, can but take there
a determination that all his crew
will work heart and soul for the
hail calls we'll with Arizona"

Sidney P. Osborn. and he will step
rom Nominee to that of Next
Governor of Arizona-Sidney P.
