of the people as to be like Caesars

We can see nc reason whatever for
injecting the question of the water
works into the city campaign-to the
extent at least of making republicans
accept bowling democrats as their can
didates. The democrats will undoubt-
eddy nominate Shot and Dunlap, and
the water company can get no comfort
on that side-if Shott and Dunlap
stand hitched.'' The republicans car

Walter Bennett for rlayor.

The suggestion that Walter Bennett
be nominated as the republican candi-
date for mayor strikes popular chord.
The republican convention tomorrow,
if it acts wisely, will nominate Mr..
Bennett. He is one of our most sub
stantial citizens. He is one of the
ablest lawyers in The west. He is al
ways well poised. He does not slop
over. He is q business man of unusual
sagacity. He is remarkably clean. His
integrity cannot be questioned. AS
mayor he would be an alert guardian
of public interests. Everybody would
be proud OF him. Nobody would run
him. He would be no mans man.
To be sure, these are the very qualifi-
cations for which ward heelers and
professional politicians are not hunt
ing, but that is all the more reason
why Walter Bennett should be the
next mayor of Phoenix.

But One Thing to Do.

The board of governors of the Salt
River Valley Water Users association
yesterday determined to proceed along
the lines heretofore laid down. That is
to say. the articles of incorporation
having been approved by the secretary
OF the interior, there is TO be no change.
for the present, in the plan OF organiz-
alton. Clearly, this is the course die
tated by common sense. The secretary
has declined 10 consider any of the OBJ
jections which were made to the articles
by certain dissatis citizens, and
will refuse to consider any amend
merts unless the same are presented
by the association itself.
Under these circumstances, it would
have been folly for the board of gov
enors to tear to pieces the fabric which
has resulted from the conscientious
and Industrious endeavor of half a
year. 1t is known that the plan now
before the people meets the unqualified
approval of the government. The sec
rotary Of the interior, after careful ex-
animation, is satisfied that all inter-

Nominate None But Republicans.

We are opposed to the nomination of
Messrs Shot and Dunlap as the can
didates' of the republican party for
councilmen. These mon are partisan
democrats. They will be renominated
as democrats by the democratic party.
The Republican is opposed to the idea
of partisan politics in municipal affairs.
Experience has shown that the best
government is had in cities when the
city business is divorced from politics.
But so long as the voters at Phoenix
city elections are made to divide on
party lines, we object, decidedly, to
having the republican party go out of
business.
The democratic party has retained
its hold on Maricopa county-indeed,
on the territory-largely because it has
retained control of Phoenix and has
built up a machine here which has been
enabled to divert thousands of dollars
from the city treasury to the uses ami
benefit of the democratic ring. And
yet, Phoenix is a strongly republican
city. Democrats have been in control
for years, simply because the demo-
Gratis have been in a compact partisan
organization with the spoils as their
only object, while republicans have
good-naturedly refused to bring their
politics strongly into city elections.
There is no indication that the demo-
Gratis propose to make any change in
policy. Shot and Dunlap are among
their most rabid partisans.
If this were not enough to make re-
publicans stop and think before max
ing these councilmen the republican
nominees, it should be remembered that
Shot and Dunlap are largely respon
sible for the Encouragement and ex-
tidNaSduCe III city W uICH has
steadily. year after year, plunged the
city more deeply into debt. If they
have any business ability they have
made a wretchedly poor exhibition of
their talents while working for the pub
lie. There has been no complaint, how
ever, that the democratic ring has
failed to be a beneficiary.
Why is it proposed to make these men
the republican nominees? Because
there happens to be before the public
or has been before the public-the
question of municipal ownership of the
water works. AS if there were not
hundreds of good republicans available
for nomination who are in favor of
public ownership of the water works.
The argument in favor of this extra
ordinary programme is silly. AS mat
ter of fact, it would surprise US greatly
should we become convinced that at
all times during the past year Coun-
cilmen Shott and Dunlap have been
such ardent advocates of municipal
ownership and such faithful guardians

Frank Casey Dead.

With regret we learn of the death
of Frank, the thirteen year old son of
NJ. and Mrs. P. F. Casey, which &C.
cured at their home near Morris last
Thursday morning. He had been ill
but few days with spinal meningitis
and his death is source of deepest
regret to the bereaved family. Frank
was loved and respected by his friends
and playmates for his excellent quail
ties and amiable disposition. He
was one of the brightest boys in
school, ranked high in his class, apd
was always helpful to his father
about the farm. His death is a great
loss to the family as we'll as the COM
munity in which he lived.
Funeral services will be held from
Assumption church Sunday morning
at 1920, conducted by Rev. Goebel.
The procession will start from the
family residence at 9 o'clock.
