Wilson is making not a vote by his

an attempt to confine himself to truth

Colonel J. f. Wilson, the man who
is now running on the Democratic
ticket for Delegate 10 Congress, was a
member of the Constitutional conven-

following was offered: "The qualifi-

ture be declared and established, but
no person shall have the right ito vote
at any election who is not a citizen
of the United States, or who is not
sui generis; or who shall have been
convicted of any infamous CRIME, and
has not lived within the State twelve
months. the County sixty days, and
the voting precinct twenty days before
the day of election" Colonel Wilson
voted no ON the adoption of that
article. BY that vote Co.onel VIII

to note that the Republicans alone have

certainly shown its ingratitude and

Colonel Wilson will get. Still it makes

ans to vote, to give. aid and support

did eastern people or eastern politics,

for Arizona, more than to use her
