udHlABLE
TO AHEND TODAY;
SENDS GBEEIGS
Owing to an unexpected press -of
official business. Gov. Thomas E.
Campbell was forced to notify The
Republican yesterday that he will not
be in Phoenix today and that there
fore it will be impossible for him to
attend the Pioneers' reunion at River
side park, at which he was to deliver
an address of welcome. In sending
his regrets. Gov. Campbell accom
panied them with a letter of greeting
and appreciation to the pioneers who
will rake part in the celebration of
today and tomorrow. His complete
letter follows:
"I am honored indeed by your in
vitation to address the pioneers in
the reunion next week, but I find
that important official work will take
me from Phoenix on the day set.
This I regret the more because the
pioneers of Arizona constitute the
men and women who, as a class,
stand highest in my estimation. Pos
sibly this Is a family feeling on my
part, for my father and mother are
pioneers and I myself am a native son
of dear old Arizona,
"I feel that I should send a word
of greeting and of appreciation to
those who have gathered in Phoenix
in answer to your invitation. I feel,
too, that I should express to them my
own participation in the affection
tiiat every true Ariramian bears to
this land. The affection felt Is differ
ent in the case of most of the pio
neers from that entertained by one
who merely happens to have been
bom hi the land. Most of them came
to Arizona voluntarily and have re
mained voluntarily and served in the
up-building of what now is a mag
nificent, -commonwealth, rich in de
veolped resources, with green and
productive fields where once the des
ert stretched, with railroads where
once were burn trails, with indus
tries where the Indian once wove his
blankets, with Christian worship
where savage war drums once sound
ed, and with homes of coraort where
the tepee of the savage once was
reared.
"These things all have needed indi
vidual and collective effort. They
have needed tenacity and integrity of
purpose. They have needed ervice
such as was known in the ancient
days of martyrdom. They have
needed vision with eyes in which the
tight - of faith remained nndimmed
and constant. They have needed
sturdiness of body and strength of
spirit.
"I can visualize, indeed I have ac
tually seen, the conditions that were
known . to the early day people of
Arizona. Nearly all of those who
came in pioneer days lived in a man
ner tiiat cow would be called merely
existence. They remember the adobe
huts with mud floors, with the cook
ing done between two rocks upended
in the door yard, and remember the
trials that attended the breaking of
the trails, the taking -oat of the first
canals, the washing away of the dam.
the drouths that succeeded the floods
and the despair that had to be fought
back, all along that weary road. Pos
sibly all of it is typified in the remark
of the small boy in the East who said
at evening prayer: "Goodbye, God, I
am going to Arizona.
'Then there is another phase the
Indian. How many there are, and I
among the number, who rememberi
how good friends and relatives have
been slain by a savage, ruthless foe
that lurked behind rocks and bushes,1
that tortured for pleasure and
against which nothing but drastic-
force proved effective. I do not know
how many whites were slain by the
savages of Arizona. I do know that
a list of 2500 names has been com
piled and in addition there undoubt-
edly were thousands who died on the
lonely hillsides, unknown and unre
corded. This warfare continued for
practically all the years from the
time of the coming of the first Span
iard in i5S down to the time when
Geronimo's band was captured in
1886. 1 believe this latter date nas
been set to mark the division line
between the pioneer and the so-called
old resident. I doubt whether it was
in the mind of the person who drew
this line just what the date repre
sented, but the date, in the consider
ation of the Indian phase alone, is a
significant one.
"In the vanguard were the mission
aries who sought, and I regret to
say with little success, the Christian
izing of the rea men or me nm
niains. manv of the Soldiers of the
cvoks meetinc martyrdom. Close
upon their heels followed the miners,
a. ha nought the treasures that lay
and that still lie, in southwestern
mmtnigins. and -who staked their
lives for the wealth they hoped to
gain. There is. too, a chapter ot gal
lant jacrvi.ee of the American soldier.
I am well aware of the fact that the
niH.timcr frenuently looked back with
dissatisfaction upon the work of the
blue-coated men who were gathered
i.. 9 Ac.-7.pn military posts. For the
mart their forces were lnade

that their number could have done.

dlers of pioneer Arizona were wen
shown in such fights as those of the
Caves, or Turret Butte, of the Big
Dry Wash, of TJate Creek and a dozen
other encounters I might include.
"I have wondered occasionally why.
under the conditions prevailing, the
sturdy men and women of pioneer
days remained in the country at all.
Certainly they received little mone
tary profit through their residence.
doubt whether the return for labor
in the Southwest was any greater
than that known in sections where
the benefits of civilization prevailed
at the time. I am compelled to con
clude that two factors must be taken
into account. One is that the pio
neers actually loved pioneering, that
they loved the danger and excitement.
They loved the fight or the- promise
of fight and they felt themselves
builders who sought rather to lay
foundations than to hoist the final
capstone. Then again, In the Divine
appointment of things there must be
some who are to form liie vanguard.
There may have been soma force be
yond that visible to us that took cer
tain invldiduals from the crowded
centers and thrust them out Into the
wilderness, where stout hearts and
stont bodies, keen perceptions and
unflasging industry were needed to
create highways over which the rail
roads couWl be built and to establish
villages that later should bloom out
into American cities. All mis nas
been done in Arizona. .The -record of
achievement is a wonderful one
Evervone whose name is found upon
that record is one who should be hon
ored by the people of today.
"The number of real pioneers rn
Arizona Is decreasing raoidly. Anv
move that tenns wwara w-curin;
their personal stories Is one that is of
value to the state and one that should
be honored and encouraged by -the
later generations. I trust that I may
help in forwarding this good work
and. though absent in person, I yend
to the gathered pioneers a message of
warmest good will that comes from
my sincere feeling of a junior com
radeship.
"Sincerely yours.

GALVESTOT. Any youngster
who hopes to take Walter Cruise's
place in the outer gardens of the
Boston Braves this year will have to
step some and use his flinging arm
some more.
One of his best little tricks of the
trade is the speedy return ot a fly
ball. Kew runners sneak home from
third after Cruise smothers a long
high one. Boston players attempted
to time him from the moment the
ball hit his glove till it was on its
way to the plate.
Nothing doing! Their watches
didn't run that fast. ,

"I learned to do it when I was a

Last summer he played with the
Billings (Mont.) club and drew tW
a month and expenses. Three major
league clubs tried to land him. Felix
chose Cincinnati becaose he was born
there.
Two weeks after his arrival at the
Reds' camp Ivy Whigo let his bat slip
and it hit Felix on the right foot. The
accident may cost the youngster a
chance to crowd Jake Daubert off
the first bag, but Moran is likely to
keep him around as an -understudy.
