THE Republican county convention held Saturday nominated an excellent ticket. It is one that every citizen who is loyal to his county can support at the polls. The nominees are all we'll known to the voters of Coconino county, and they are men who can be safely trusted to conduct the business of the county for the next two years The SUN believes that the voters of the county will chose the nominees of the Republican convention for the various offices for which they were named,

THAT is funny situation, says the "Herald," in which the democrats of Yavapai county have placed them. selves. At their county convention they saw fit to denounce the alleged action of Governor Murphy in pro- curing an act of congress validating certain bond issues. The convention was very virtuously indignant and had hardly words bitter enough to express their condemnation of anyone con. nected with so nefarious scheme. and then what did they do3 Nomin- ated and placed on their ticket four men who signed petition asking the last legislature to memorialize con- gress to do the very thing they con- demn. But this is characteristic of the democracy. Given chance to make X bluuder they may be safely counted on to make it at the right time.
The Coconino weekly sun., 1896-09-24

THE democrats of Cuconino county did not wish to sacrifice a member of their party at the polls as candidate for the council, so they offer the empty honor to the populst party. But they require in return that the popu- lists support the democratic ticket.

HAVE you heard from Arkansas? It now turns out that all the fuss made about the democratic gain was with. out foundation. and that the shoe was on the wrong foot. The real fact is a republican gain of 3,789. If Arkansas had half chance, she would line up with Maine and Vermont.
