 The Yuma Sun virtually, in
 it's editorial columns, charges the republican party with inconsist- ency, and at the same time con-
 veys the idea falsely to the pub lie mind that it is responsible for the board of control, territorial
 board of equalization, and dis franchisement, or poll tax law all of which is not true and with out particle of foundation.
 The foregoing remarks are cer-
 tainly fit for the occasion. The
 Yuma Sun, a paper claimed to be honestly edited and supposed to give the news as it is, would lead it's readers to believe that which has no foundation, either in fact or in truth.
 It is we'll known to all think ing men and women that the democratic party from it's very inception has been a calamity howler. The Simon, pure could not exist outside it's lines ; to i'm bibe democratic principles meant to be saved, and yet, within it's rank and file, will be seen the worst element of citizenship to be found in the union. This, of course, does not extend to all. Within the lines of the demo- cratic party are many men of high standing and ability, but they are cursed with the "palsy of reform" These men dictate the policy of each campaign; in fact, dictate and frame the whole policy of the democratic party, and in one or two instances dur ing the last thirty years have so cunningly framed that policy as to mislead the American people and for 6 short period enjoyed the fruits of their labors, while the people aforesaid failed to see whete they got in. So it ever will be.
 The Yuma Sun asks "Where is the republican party of Yuma county upon the momentous ques- tion of abolishing or maintaining the territorial board of control and equalization ?" "Why don't their platform speak out upon this and other issues of local inn portance ?" Why? Because the republican party is not one of promises, but of action. It be- lieves in the preservation of the union and the equality of all mon before the law.
 Let us see. In your platform, by the democratic con- vention of Yuma county, you pledge the repeal of the board of control, territorial board of and disfranchise- ment law, termed by you the "pOll-tax law" You do well, my lord! It strikes us that we have heard that same promise before. You promised beneficial legisla- tion (excepting the poll-tax law two years ago. Yes, four years ago. Yes, six,-in fact, you nave done nothing but promise. i Have you kept that promise ? |
 You claim the territorial board 1 of equalization law is an indignity rank injustice on the people. Who passed that law, my friend, put democratic legislature, and who aided and lobbied that bill that legislature but c. flyer Zulick, democratic gov ,rpor of Arizona. The same governor who ''slept on the bleak md barreu hillsides of Cochise with a Winchester for my bride. :" Two years ago the legislature of Arizona was overwhelmingly lemocratic. Why didn't you re- )eal the law then ? You prom Sed to do so.
 The board of control bill-did 7ou do anything with that? You promised it's repeal two years go, but it is still law. Per laps you forgot it and new want mother chance. Barnum says, Tine American people love to be ]
