DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES
 NOW ASKING FOR SUPPORT
e Democratic Party Has Named Worthy Men to Take Charge of the Public Business Coche CountyWho They Are and What They Represent

ty Recorder, Frank Hare. Mir. Hare IS a candidate for reelection on tho Democratic ticket. and if the voters anu taxpayers of Cochise county con sider his unimpeachable record for honesty and economy. he will again hll that office. His opponents ad- vance the argument that he has grown gray in the service" In an swer to this it may be truthfully said that to grow gray. carefully conserv- ing the interests of the people. is far better than to have the taxpayers and citizens grow gray viewing the work of an incompetent and vainly trying to distangle records improperly kept.
 Frank Hare has been in Cochise county since 1882, embarking in the cattle and livery business soon after coming to Tombstone from sherman, Texas, where he was raised. Since 1884 he has been a taxpayer in the county and his interests are heavy and varied. Among other things he is vice president of the Tombstone bank Twenty-two years of resi- dence in the county is sufficient to demonstrate that it is and always will be his chosen home. In 1898 Mir. Hare was elected Recorder and as a testi- monial to his efficient service, repub- licans as well as democrats. who have interests of any extent in the county are his ardent supporters for re-elec- ton. When Mir. Hare took the off, fee it barely paid it's own expenses and in some previous years had been an actual expense to the county. Un- der Mir. Hare's regime. through care ful administration and economical handling it has become a revenue pro- ducer.
 The following table shows the re- ceipts of the office during the years indicated:

Texas when he arrived in ArizOna eleven years ago. Es is the demo- cratic nominee for seat in the leg islature as a representative of Coch- ise county. Since coming to the territory he has been continuously in Cochise county employed in the rail- road business. For a long time he was agent of the Southern Pacific at Wilcox and afterwards held a simil- far position for that company at Bow ie Station and at Dragoon. He came to Naco three years ago and entered the office of the Cananea railroad as a clerk. His faithful and efficient ser vice resulted in his advancement un- til he is now chief clerk and train dis patcher at Naco for this road. Mir. Bailey is yet a young man. but he is possessed of a matured mind and has acquired thorough knowledge of pub lie matters and being ambitious may be depended upon to take a leading part in the consideration of all mat ters which may come before the leg islature next winter.
 The legislative ticket in Cochise county is a splendid one and it's cleo ton will secure for COchise county faithful service in our law making body. Each of the democratic nomi- nees is worthy the hearty support of every democrat in the county.

cestor's came to America about 1S0o from nsar the town of Inevrness. in Scotland. When John was five years old, the family moved on a back woods farm. six miles from any school where he lived till he was fifteen, when he left home and has made his way in the world ever since.
 On leaving home, he worked at farming and mining for five years, then went to Minnesota, took a course of study in the Normal school of that State. taught school a few terms. and incidently read law.
 In September. 1890. he entered the Law department of the University of Minnesota. at Minneapolis. finished the course in two years. and has been in the general practice of his profess ion ever since.
 In January, 1895. he came to Ari- zona and settled in Grc ham county where he lived eight years. He was district atttorney of Graham county for an uneXptred term, and made an excellent record in that office. He has been in Bisbee since December 1902.
 In spite of those early disadvan- tages and obstacles, he has become g good general scholar, thorough in the common English branches and is vel read in history and general literature He has a fair knowledge of latin, anC speaks Irish as fuently as he does En- glish. He is a man of temperate ana exemplary habits.
 We believe it is conceded by tht best lawyers in Arizona that there are few men at the bar in the Territory who have a more profound and prac' tical knowledge of the law than Johr MoGowan.

Earnings of office

Earnings of office .... ..s 6,27O.30
 It will be seen that the increase oi revenue has gee nsteady and that the expense of extra help authorized by law has been avoided. For instance during the last year an entire new set of books have been bought and trans cribed by MT. Hare. all the trans cribing was done by the regular office force and no extra help was employ ed. although the law plainly states that such may be done. thus adding to the. cost of maintaining the office. Formerly, under the fee system, nnak- ing a copy of the great register through the employment of extra help in the recorders office has cost the county as high as $1TOO. It was turned out this year by MT. Hare without the employment of any extra help and consequently no extra cost to the tax payers. Why should man with such record be supplanted by another un- tried in the office?
 The office could not be more care fully handled or the records more carefully or economically kept by any man. and the people of 0ochise county will show their appreciation of duty well performed by re-electing him on November sth by a handsome majority.

JUDGE WILLIAM NEVILLE
 MAKES PLAIN THE ISSUE
Clear Cut Truths of the Campaign Told TerseIy and We'll by Nominee for Assembly
 Written to Committee in Accepting Nomination

Judge Wm. Neville. who was nominated for the assembly by the democratic county central committee to fill the vacancy caused by the withdrawal of Alfred Paul. has writ ten letter to the chairman and sec retary of the committee in which he accepts the nomination. The letter should be carefully read by every vo- ter in COchise county. It tells some interesting facts about the position the leaders of the republican party have occupied in the past when irri- gation and statehood were being urg- ed for the benefit of the west. Judge Neville's letter follows:
 To NJ. J. Cunningham. Chairman and
 L. E. Stroufe, Secretary:
 Gentlemen;-
 While it was not my desire to enter so actively in politics, my great abli- gations to the democratic party, and a due appreciation of the honor con- -ferred induce me to accept the non1- ination for the assembly from Coch- ise county.
 Since I will not be able to visit all the precincts in this campaign deem it my duty in this letter to give some of the reasons why the democratic party should be successful in Arizona Two vital questions are being discuss ed in the campaign, to-wit: Irrigation and Statehood, and the republicans a: usual claim credit for everything gooC and deny responsibility for anything bad. in connecton with such issues Irrigation and Statehood have beer and are now opposed by the repubii can party for one purpose to pre- vent an increase of representatiO from the west. It is well known fac that the Eastern states since the clos of the civil war have not only con trolled the appropriations emanatini from congress. but have completel. shaped the policy of the government west two more senators and a con gressman clothed with authority t vote. Irrigation by increasing tn population will force statehood an, an increase of the number of congress men for Arizona. For these reason | the republican floor leader, Payne. o New York, the administration spokes man. Grosvenor. of Ohio. the appro ! priation chairman, present speake Canon, of Illinois. the judiciary chair man. Ray, of New York. and all tn other republican leaders. including Dalzell. Littlefeld, Hepburn. Grow Overstreet, Babcock and Higley, worl ed openly on the floor of the house against the bill for reclamation o | the arid lands. The bill was report ed to the house by the committee ol irrigation of arid lands and on Jun
 1S, 1902. it passed the house by tn votes of one hundred democrats an, forty-six republicans. All the lead

 The National Board of Trade.
 The National Business League
 The National Association of Agri- cultural Implements and Vehicle Man ufacturers.
 The National Association of Wagon Makers.

With all this public sentiment in our favor. We were compelled to eliminate every particle of the ap- propriation asked by the bill as in i troduced and substitute simply a part

It was purely a stretch of imagination when the republican county conven- ton sought to give the credit for the reclamation act" to E. A. Fowler. Any one desiring to know the facts as they exist can see the records in my office in Douglas.
 As to statehood it was fought for the same purpose and more bitter ly by the leading republicans and the administration and when the right of the territories became so clear it could no longer be fought in the open the administration sought to minimize the increase n representa- ton gy forcing joint statehood. Presi- dent Roosevelt in his letter says: If on one great issue the democrats do not mean what they say it is hardly safe to trust them on any other"
 Should I be elected it will be my endeavor to be careful and conser- vative in urging legislation. shall not go seeking to make a record and , will have no occasion to slop over Some provisions of the criminal code need amending to make them effect i've. know of no place where there is as perfect harmony between em- ployer and employe as in Arizona and especially in Cochise county and there should be neither legislation nor agi taton to disturb that harmony.
 Again thanking you for the honor done me, I am, truly yours,

CANDIDATES ARE MANY
HALF A DOZEN MEN AFTER THE
REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR
OFFICE OF CONTROLLER.

New candidates for city controller
appear almost daily. When Colonel
Joshua Rogers announced that he was
to retire with the end Of his present
term, enterprising patriots immediate
.ly began planning campaigns to Sc
cure the republican nomination, which
is held to be equivalent to an election.
Among the avowed candidates are
c. A. Nimocks and Thad S. Dickey,
who, thru their long connection with
thoroly familiar with the special as
sessment books of the CITY, This
phase of the account system is OF. SUI
preme Importance to the city on ac-
count of the great deficits in the re-
volving fund and the alleged irregu-
,larities in bookkeeping. The two men
named have also been engaged at va
,rious times in checking UP the books
of the controller Mr.. Nimocks repre-
sented the Comm ercial club at the
convention of public and municipal
accounts, which gave particular atten-
ton to uniform accounting.
Dan G. Brown, at present deputy in
the controllers office, is a candidate.
He will prove a valuable man to the
city from the fact that he is receiving
special coaching in the new system of
accounting. Two former attaches OF
the Office, C. r. e. Peterson and Fred
Nye, are also laying wires for the
place. Finally, there is Hugh 81
Marchbank. clerk of the board of ed
ucation, who, finding no avenue for
promotion in the school department.
is looking elsewhere for a place.

WIFE LAY DEAD
AT BRAKES SIDE
She Had Taken Laudanum and
Retired While He Lay
Half Asleep.

While standing within plain view of
her husband and displaying no nerv-
BUSINESS whatever, Mrs. Anna Drake,
1927 East Twenty-eighth street, calm
ly drank two ounces of laudanum at
2 o'clock this morning. After sitting
about the room for a few minutes she
retired beside her husband and when
was dead. Deputy Coroner w. B.
Murphy was summoned and decided
that it was plain case of suicide, de-
spondency being the cause.
Mrs. Drake left home last evening
to call on friends. At bedtime she
had not returned and her husband re-
tired. At 2 o'clock she returned and
her entry awakened her husband. He
drowsily saw her standing by the
and suppOsing she was taking medi-
cine asked no questions. Later she
retired without saying anything which
would arouse his suspicious.
When DR.. Murphy visited the Drake
home this morning he found the
empty laudanum vial and Mr.. Drake
explained that his wife was subject to
fits of dependency at which times she
frequently spoke of suicide. He had
never thought that she would carry
out the threats and had paid little at
tention to them. She had been
troubled with heart disease and this
malady is thought to have caused her
dependency. He could not tell
where. she had spent the evening, but
the poison had been purchased at a
downtown drug store.

Spec1dl 70 Inc JouInaA,
Chicago, Feb. 17.-John r. Mitchell
of Winona, Mimi, has returned home
after about a week spent in investi-
eating the outlook for a new national
bank in Chicago. He was more par
ticularly concerned about the charter
Of the Mercantile National bank. This
charter was taken out over year ago,
but the bank was never organized, al
tho it secured and fitted up quarters.
Mr.. Mitchell is vice president of the
Winona Deposit bank and president of
the Duluth Savings bank. The Win
ona institution has a capital of $780,
900 and deposits Of $1,000,000. The
Duluth Savings has capital of $780,
600 and deposits of $350,590. Mr..
Mitchell is a director of the Western
Trust and Savings bank Of Chicago.
He has a large following in his own
state and is one of it's wealthy bank
ers.
It is not known whether Mr.. Mitch
ell will finally decide to come to Chi
cago and organize bank. If he does,
his friends predicted yesterday, his in
stitution would command confidence
from the first. He appears to have
had in mind a bank with not less than
s1,O00.O00 capital. He became inter
ested in the Mercantile Nationals UNI
used charter thru business associates
in the Western Trust and Savings
bank. While he might have the same
interests associated with him in a new
institution, he would be it's head and
controlling factor.

CHRISTIAN BRETHREN SELL
STEAMER MEGIDDO, WHICH
HAS BEEN THEIR HOME TWO
YEARS.

The amphibious Christian Brethren
for the time being have deserted the
water for land attack on the COM
mon enemy of religious sects. Head
quarters have been transferred from
the steamer Megiddo to Rochester N.
Y. The Megiddo, from which sallies
have been made for two winter sea-
sons on the lower Mississippi river
ports, has been sold for more merce-
nary traffic and now claims Paducah.

Minneapolis.
The Brethren still have landed in
terest in Minneapolis. About three
years ago they individually began to
invest their savings in Northeast Min
neapolis real estate. o. J. Smith of
Temple Court, in whose charge is left
the property. says that the sect owns
fifty-three houses here, and that he
knows Of no contemplated change in
ownership. Rev. L. T. Nichols is still
head of the religious movement and
the thirty families which formerly
lived on the steamer Megiddo are sup
posed to have simply determined on
another mode Of travelling, necessary
because of the different point of at
tack.
