We extract the following frem the
last issue OF the Arizona Kicker:
We ARE LEFT For the past four
weeks our friends have been eagerly
pressing us 10 take the nomination for
mayor on the peoples ticket. We do
not crave Office. and are very busy
man. but the pressure became so great
we had to give In. Last Tuesday even
ing the city caucus was held. and in
stead OF being nominated Tor mayor
we received only three votes out OF
upwards OF sixty cast. Our friends
were mistaken when they insisted that
we were wanted. Instead OF being the
unanimous choice OF the patriotic peo-
pie, we had the pleasure of seeing
jerry Baxter. the meanest man In

that's human nature right enough. and
nm editor fool enough TO go into politics
deserves to be driven head FIRST into
the tan-bark as we were. We have e
word TO say. however. the Kicker will
not only bolt every candidate on the
ticket, but we guarantee TO have nine
tenths OF the nominees In prison before
they are a month older. Feni cum

ing out more red peppers.
The Worid-Her0M need not be as
sured that Montana democrats are not
working the compromise racket this
year. They are legally entitled to the
Legislative majority on joint ballot and
they are entirely satisfied that they will
get it. because they have every conf
dence that right will prevail. If con-
spiracy can win, however. I'm this terri
