Bisbee daily review., 1904-05-20
MERELY BY
 WAY OF SUGGESTION.

Hon. B. A. Packard, Chairman Of th'
 Democratic County Central Committe'
 has issued a call of the comm;.tee fr'
 tomorrow, Saturday, afterno ,n at ths
 Copper Queen Hotel.
 While the Review is not advised O
 the purpose of this meeting. it ha!
 been informed that at the meeting MT
 Packard will tender his resignation a!
 Chairman of the Committee. This
 is to be regretted, for MT. Packard
 was particularly adapted to the posi-
 ton by many years of experience and
 active work within the party lines
 having the confidence of all those com
 ing in contact with him personally ol
 along political lines.
 The Review would respectfully sug gest, however, that there are nun Der of eminently well qualified gentle men in this city who would be avail able to serve as Chairman of the Com
 mittee, and to succeed NIT. Packard.
 The committee should consider first We think. the name of R. A. Casad. Mir. Casad has been a constable in Bis bee for some time, and has an extend ed acquaintance among the influen- tial people of the county, and his duties as constable would not neces- sariiy occupy all of his time, so he would have ample of that quantity to devote to the interests of the Demo cratic party in the county. His well known aptitude for the work of poli- tics would also stand him better in hand than any other person, in our judgment, that could be named. Ordi- narily a busy man of affairs can not give Of his time to the extent of neg lecting his business to devote the time absolutely necessary 10 carrying on Of campaign of the importance of Cochise county, and nothing seems clearer than that Providence had spc- cially cared for Cochise county in hay ing just at hand a gentleman with an extended influence, a thorough politi- clan, equipped in every respect to han die the affairs of the Democratic Coun- " Committee. as is Constable Casad. of Bisbee.
 There might be some objections raised to this commendation, because 1t comes from the Review, and. there fore, it suggests that there is still more able timber in the committee. and not necessarily confined to Bisbee. who IS apt to be charged with taking every thing in sight, for there are other places in Cochise county than Bisbee. The other name the Review has in mind just now emanates from Doug las, and mind you, Douglas is a place now that is able to "holler'' for her rights, and representation.
 Mir. Charles F. Nichols is the name we had in mind-a very influential Democratic gentleman of the Shelter City. "Old Pack" is getting pretty old now, and having worked in the harness for so many years, he is en- titled to a rest and pass the reins over to younger blood. MT Nichols has such a wide and extended influence in the county, that this influence eouid not but bring great results to the par ty- There can'be no doubt but what either of the two gentlemen named would possibly better fill the chairman ship Of the county committee than Hon. B. A. Packard.
 Constable Casad and Mir. Nichols are both more extensively known and could undoubtedly bring to the party an unusual strength. so that the Re view will be pardoned for suggesting that it feels rather proud at the con ception of the thought. which will in a minute fix the chairmanship of the Cochise County Democratic Commit tee. in so highly a satisfactory man. her as the selection Of either Cons;a- ble Casad or MT. Nichols from Doug las.
 P. $. These are simply suggestions. and do not necessarily commit the Re view in favor of Constable Casad or Fally' Nichols. They are just feel ers' sent out 10 see how these gentle men would do as successors to "Oid Pack at the head of the county com mittee
