An Enthusiastic Meeting and a Power
ful Argument.
Thursday evening Hon. George
H. Maxwell, chairman of, the ex
ecutive committee of the National
Irrigation Association, addressed
the people of Nogales in behalf of
Hon. B. A. Fowler, republican no
minee for congress. Armory Hall
was filled with a large and appre
ciative audience that closely fol
lowed the address of the eloquent
speaker, liberally punctuating his
talk with enthusiastic applause as
telling points were frequently pre-
senieu. i
In the unavoidable absence of
the chairman of the republican
-county committee, Doctor Kay
Ferguson, the meeting was called
to order by Mr. E. L. Crowell, one
of the executive committee, who
introduced Mr. George K. French
to preside.
In a terse and appropriately
worded speech Mr. French took
charge of the meeting and pre
sented the, following list of vice
presidents:
E. Titcomb. 11. EKey, R. S.
Shumwav, E. Baker, J. H. Pome-
rov, Harry Williams, Ramon as-
quez. J. B. Bristol, A. R. Morawetz,
W. R. Sprecher, A. L. Peck.
Then the chairman introduced
the Fowler Glee Club, which sang
with telling effect a couple of origi
nal songs, replete with political
allusions, both national and local,
which were received with the wild
cat applause. The work of the glee
club is surely very telling. It con
sists of these eight gentlemen:
W. G. Seoville, C. C. Kingsley,
A. G. Ellis, E. L. Crowell, Milton
J'iohall, W. R. Sprecher, Wm.
Young.
Mrs. Lulley assisted the club,
playing the accompaniment. The
songs sung were to the airs of
America-America," and "The
Soldier's Farewell."
Then Mr. Maxwell was intro
duced, and during an hour and a
half he closely held the interest of
the audience with a clear account
of the scope and operations of the
Natioifal Irrigation Association,
what it had already done for Ari
zona (having secured expenditure
by government of six millions of
loilars for irrigation and land re
clamation) and what it further
hopes to do for the territory
(secure expenditure within the
millions more, have been secured
for the Tonto Basin project to com
plete reclamation of the Salt River
Valle. The two great valleys
along the Gila, the Santa Cruz
valley, he San Pedro, the Little
Colorado, the Hassayampa and
others, remain to receive money
appropriations for development of
irrigation works and reclamation.
All this led up to the point that
Mr. Fowler, the republican nom
inee, being an active worker in the
National Irrigation Association has
contributed greatly to what lias
been already done, and will con
tinue to contribute to what is to
be done; but that he should be
elected to represent Arizona in
congress because with the van
tage ground given him in that post
he can work toward the great ends
in view more effectively.
Upon the other hand Mark
Smith came forward with a record
of twelve years of fruitless effort
and failure in congress, and asks

another term to do some more
failure. Six terms Mark has been
elected upon promise to secure!
statehood for Arizona, in winch ne
has registered failure every time;
and now he asks to be elected the
seventh time to go on to Washing
ton and defeat statehood. !
Mr. Maxwell paid his respects
to Mr, Smith in the matter of the
proposed joint debate, showing
bow Mr. Smith, in his speech at
Benson Saturday last, expressed
desire, to meet Mr. Maxwell and j ;
address the public from the same
platform. That led to the tele
gram Mr. Smith read from the
stage of the Nogales opera house
Monday night. Then and there
Mr. Smith accused Mr. Maxwell of
acting in bad faith, knowing Mr.
Smith's dates were all filled, and
that he could not accept. Mr.
Maxwell stated further that upon
Tuesday Mr. Smith was wired at
Benson that if he would meet Mr.
Maxwell at Douglas Wednesday
evening, at which place Mr. Smith
was billed to speak, Mr. Maxwell,
who spoke there Tuesday evening,
would remain and meet him m
joint debate Wednesday evening.
Mr. Smith did not reply, so Mr.
Maxwell came along to Nogales
Wednesday evening.
After termination of the address
the audience was dismissed, but
many remained to meet Mr. Max
well,' who held an informal reception.
Yesterday the gentleman went
to Benson, where he delivered an
address and another at St. Davids
at evening.
All who heard Mr. Maxwell in
Nogales were deeply impressad
with the force and effectiveness of
his argument. The gathering was
one of the most successful political
meetings ever known m rsogales.

I like to have My Prescriptions
Compounded at the Montezuma
Pharmacy"
So said a customer of mine to a doctor recently,
'Evervthin? there is so nent. clean and business
like, and your never hear any talking or giggling
behind his prescription case." From the way our
business continues to grow we know that the
major ty of the people appreciate a drugstore that
is conducted as ours i. The drug business is a
serious business, and a drug store is the last place
in which torn -foolery or nonsense should be tolerated.
