After time she smiled smile of
intense satisfaction. and her face
smiled pleasantly back at her.

PlMR DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The Democrats of Pima county have
named their men for ONCE, and nc
Democrat need feel called upon to &C
outside his own fold for men by char
acter and capacity constituted amply
to perform responsible public service
1t is great pleasure to a newspaper
that believes sincerely in the policies
and principles of the Democratic party
to be able to say this with truth and
candor.
We assume that majority of The
voters of Pima county are adherents OF
the Democratic party. This has been
demonstrated more than once. Some
times candidates for local offices put
out by Democratic convention have
been defeated, and this is explainable
on the ground, that party obligations
in purely local administrative affairs
sit light on the average citizen, and
some times candidate on the Demo
cratic ticket did not size up satisfac-
torily in ability and character with
some one named by the Republicans.
= This yearlno one can say this.
The Democratic ticket is excellent in
every way, and there is no excuse for
any citizen yielding general adherence
to the Democratic party to scratch it.
On the other hand, there is every rea-
son why the independent voter and tne
thoughtful Republican should favor
the candidates named by the Democ-
racy. for the simple reason that thew
are the better qualified men.
The Democratic ticket is strong from
top to bottom, and represents the best
thought and the best spirit of the COM
munity. Frank Murphy is an IDEAL
sheriff. That is his reputation not onN
in Arizona, but throughout the entire
southwest. He should be reelected,
ana he will be. Charles BIenman
Will honor the Office of district attor-
ney, He is lawyer of character and
anteliect, standing for the best IN
stincts5of the bar of Arizona. and ren-
resentative of the best characteristics
OF the American lawyer in every way.
he has the courage and the ability to
iairiy and honestly and without pre-
Judlce or favor enforce the law, and
every one who knows him knows he
VIII do it. Two other exceptionally
strong men on the ticlet-men whose
services 1t is high compliment to the
party to be able to secure-are Harry
Drachman and Fred Ronstadt, named
Tor supervisors, There are no better
men in Arizona, and their election ',y
large majorities will be compliment
to the public prudence and keen BUSH

Lesson That May He Learned From
the Habits of the Bees.
Don't stir up beehive unless yc-i
know it is rich one" said an apiarist
to visitor at his bee farm.
II think that | would leave them
alone altogether" was the reply. 'They
have too angry buzz about them to
win my confidence
You are not used to them, that's
all, said the beeman. For example.
these hives are full of honey, and if
puff little smoke into the doors so as
to sort of suffocate the sentries | can
topple hive over, handle the bees
like SO many beans. clean the honey
combs and carry them off, The bees
won't harm me-" And, to prove his
words, the speaker performed his ex-
pertinent and came back to his friend
with smile and several heavy combs
of honey.
IF those hives had been nearly
empty" said the apiarist, II would
have been lucky to have escaped with
my life. The tenants of poor hive
sting to KILL"
That's strange" said the visitor.
Il should think that they would de-
fend their boards with especial jeal-
ousy, and the more they have the hot
ter they would fight
The reason is" said the beeman.
that when alarmed @he bees fly to
their storehouse and gorge themselves.
When full of honey, bee can't bend
it's body and sting"
