NEW GOVERNOR DECLARES
GOLDEN RULE ADMINISTRATION
At 8 O'clock Tonight Every Citizen
of the United States Is Asked
to Toast New State.
PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. It. Exact
ly fifty yfcarsi from the day Jofforsoo.
Davis Mghe'ci a proclamation admit
ting Arizona to tho confederacy,
George W. P. Hunt iVos today Inaug
urated as- her first state governor
and she became tho 48th member of
the American' srsterhbod of states.
Simplicity was " tho keyaoto of
the Inauguration. Military features
wero entirely absent and Hunt, who
began his career In Arlzou.a 30 years
ago as a waiter in a Globe restaurant,
insisted on walking to tho capltol,
where ho took the oath.
Phoenix is in gala dress today.
Thousands of visitors aro hero from
every section of tho torrltory. A
great celebration Is planned for to
night. Governor Hunt received con
gratulatory messages from tho gov
ernors of almost every other state
At S o'clock tonight tho world will
drink to the health of tho nowest
state, It tho Invitation of tho Arizona
committee Is heeded. Every citizen
of tho United States has bocn-.tfi.-qucstcd
to pledgo prosperity to Ari
zona. In his Inaugural address Governor
Hunt said In part:
"Fellow Citizens: In tho name of
the sovereign people of Arizona, who
gave it, I nccept the responsibility
conferred upon me. There is neither
thought nor desire iu my mind to bo
known to posterity ns Arizona's best
governor, but rather tho wsh that
Arizona nnd her governors hereafter
shall continue to be progressive nnd
that my administration encourage u
constantly awakening public con
science. 'Arizona is progressive and demo
cratic, and my administration, inso
far as my conduct can nssuro it, shall
be democratic iu tho Jefi'ersonian
sense which denotes equality, sim
plicity and uuostentntion.
"The offico of governor will bo
open every hour of every working day
of tho year, and many other hours."
After outlining his plans to maku
hi- administration one of strictly
business principles, Governor Hunt
said:
"Iu a subordinate sense I have
tried to indicate that my administra
tion will bo strictly n business ono
and the people's, money shall be wise
ly used, waste prohibited and graft,
wherever it may bo found, ox posed
and punished; but 1 am far more anx
ious that it shall bo known us a gold
en rule administration, in which tho
rights of all classes shall have equal
consideration."
Tho new governor closed his ad
dress with a proiuioe of an oppor
tunity for the people soon to decide
upon tho principle of judiciary recall
which was eliminated from tho con
stitution at tlio request of President
Tuft, in order to secure his approval
of the constitution.
Governor Hunt today refused to
rovlow tho Inauguration civic parado
from a rovlowlng stand that bad boon
constructed by non-union labor.
"When tho word wan convoyod to
tho officials of tho now Arizona state
Federation of Labor, thoy at onco
communicated with tho offlcora of
tho carpontera' local, who .ushod la
borers to tho rovlowlug grounds.
'Within threo hours a now stand,
constructed by union labor, had been
built. From this Governor Hunt an
nounced ho would rovlow tho parado.
