1t is always gratifying to receive
testimonials for Chamberlain's

so. "There is no more satisfactory

Remedy" writes DR.. R. Il. Robey,

LAST weeks Bulletin says that
one local attorney who was a de-
feated candidate last fall, in ex'
planning the cause of his light
vote, says in letter to another at
torney that the vote man receives
is neither indicative OF his stand
ing in the community or fitness
for the Office he seeks, as voters in
campaign times simply "booze,
bawl and stampede" We suggest
to the Bulletin that it give the name
of the ,corthy attorney who regards
the people in this light. 1t might
be interesting for those who did
vote for him to know
that he regards them as boozers
bawlers and stampeders. The
Bulletin should be kind enough to
give little more light on the
subject by publishing his name,
so that the people ofGraham coun-
by will know the man who holds
them in such high esteem.

THE street leading west from w.
b. Fonda's residence to the mesa,
q distance of about two miles and
a halt will some day be one of the
most beautiful streets in Arizona.
Two years ago more than half the
length of this street was barren
desert. Now the greater portion
oft on either side is lined with
pretty cottages and handsome
residences, and on the inside of the
fences rows of trees are growing
and beautiful flowers are blooming
And while so much beauty appears
on the inside of the fences the
street itself IS in bad condition.
A considerable distance of it is
badly overgrown with mesquite
and often flooded with water. The
residents of the entire length of
this street should make an organic
ed effort for its Improvement. A
decided stand should be taken
against future flooding; sidewalks
should be Land out and ornamental
trees planted, where there are
none, on either side of the side.
walks the entire length Of the
street. This should be attended to
this fall. Then the people up there
may lay claim, and truly to, to the
most beautiful avenue in Arizona
