There are boys in Wichita from u TO
16 years of age who speak of their par
ents as the old man or the old woman.
1t is an outrage that such boys are not
tied to Il whipping post whenever they
speak so of their parents. It's a dis
grace to the age and if their parents have
not taught them better. the authorities
ought TO do So This might be taught in
our public schools if the teachers could
take little time to inculcate pOlitcness
and respect in the minds of the youth.

Bisbee daily review., 1904-04-03

We don't know now but what it was a pretty good idea to try out MT. Hicks in the position 10 which godfather Hunt called him. for on the testimony of MT. Hunt, Mr. Hicks was proven to have been heavily overworked regis tering an average of two names per hour, ten hours per day, for sixty days, It is surprising to think that the late registrar would aspire to job where there is some sure thing work to per form. But Mir Hunt is a good heart. ed man, ana will soon find Mir. Hicks an easier job after Tuesday next.

to the repair improvement and clean liness of the public streets, trails. stairways and sidewalks. Have you heard anything that sounded like such pledges emanaung from the sputter- ing generalities of those who use words without the slightest compre- hension of their meaning? Not a sound. All the Democratic party of Bisbee asks is. that the Republican party having so completely and abso- lutely shown their inability to perform their duty in the past two years, give up the offices they have held, retire gracefully to the easy shades of pri- vate life. and allow the Democratic energy of a party pledged to some thing 10 tkae hold of a grossly misad- ministered city, and if they have not performed all this they have promised at the end of two years, they will ask no more the suffrages of the people. Let every good citizen walk to the polls tomorrow, and send into the government of the city men who will do things"
Bisbee daily review., 1904-04-03
THE FRIEND OF THE ROCKINGHAM.

The Review regrets exceedingly that
 the word workingman has been inter polated into this campaign. In this camp there should not be a drone,
 and every man is workingman,
 whether he goes down into the bowels
 of the earth with his dinner pail, or
 whether he manages the largest empo- rium in the city, or is brsiiy engaged with his law books and clients from early morning until late at night. But
 at the very last moment the Repubii- can candidate for mayor had to be referred to as the ~workingman's friend This is unfortunate, indeed, because the Review does not believe actually that Mir. Warner personally would have sanctioned it's use. And as assuredly as the sun rises in the east, there is not human soul in Bis bee but knows Jack Taylor, and is proud to grasp the hand Of this toiLer in the mines, and there is not a soul in Bisbee, that would say that the Democratic candidate for the office of
 Mayor is not the true friend of the | workingman.' The statement was a ! reflection upon the candidacy of Mir Taylor, and unfortunately brings up ! the record of MT. Warner on the very subject of being the ''workingman' $ | friend" It is published in another I column of this mornings Review, and
 it speaks for itself The Review did
 not introduce the subject, but the pub
 lie career of MT. Taylor win compare
 fayorably with that of his opponent I and the matter is juss left to the work 1 ingmen voters of the city, and that means the entire population, to render
 their verdict without argument, as th' l attorneys would say. Their owI medicine is sometimes unpleasant, bu
 it looks as though they would have tC say they liked 1t.

with his denial? Anybody heard of another denial lying around loose? Mir John Hughes address is well known and he is a pretty responsible man If any person is looking for him very badly they can find him around some where. He will be at the City Hall next Tuesday evening, to be sworn ir as the Alderman from the Second Ward, and MT Hughes will be there to see Mr. Kriegbaum take his place also, to which Mir Ed Scott aspired only to find the cruel knife had been thrust into his side in the house of his friends.
Bisbee daily review., 1904-04-03

The fact is acknowledged l.. B Sroufe, the Democratic candidate for City Clerk, is charged with the hein ous crime of holding a responsible DO sition with the Copper Queen Mining Company, where he is paymaster, and incidentally has been there for over four years, and also incidentally holds the position still, and earns a good sal ary for being an efficient empioye This is terrible, indeed. But, by the way, he is not charged with being the president of a million dollar gold mining company" so there is some hope for him still. And. by the way he will make a mighty good, methodi cal and efficient city clerk, as the peo pie will see when installed in office

GENERALiTIES
 AND ACTUAllTiES.

In the present city campaign the Review has endeavored to carry out its part in bringing the requirements of the city to the attention of the citi- zens and the taxpayers It has re fused to descend to the poll parrot dog gerel of the poultry yard. The best and most efficient manner of doing this was simply to show the impoen- cy of the City Council now passing into history as the weakest and veri- est do nothing" organization that ever occupied official position as rep resentatives of the people in a law making body.
 At the eleventh hour, at the very door through which they are making their official exit, unhonored and un- sung, the Republican party of Bisbee has the unblushing effrontery to ap- pear before the people, and on their posters and through their mouth piece, cry for fire protection and for clean streets. Could anything be more farcicai For two whole years a Republican Council, with an abso- lute majority in the body where they have sat evening after evening, most of them residents of Bisbee for many, many long years, perfectly ia miliar with the requirements of the city in the direction of fire protection water, sewerage, has frittered away it's time in such silly proceedings as granting gas franchises, and electrical car line franchises, while their owr inactivity has permitted to disband 2 Chemical company of the already mad eQuate fire department composed oi the best fire fighting material to bs found anywhere. Oh. Consistency They name is truly Republican mem Der of the City Council of Bisbee.
 It is not probable that the intelh gent people of Bisbee can be mislei by a lot of simple office seeking per sons, whose only desire is to pose a: city officials, and not work for th' benefit of the material good of Bisoee Two years of such misadministration carelessness and donothiDgism ,! enough.
 The Democratic party in this eft, is pledged to the people by its wore that if given the administration of th' city's affairs, immediate steps will b taken to perform exactly what th' Republicans have slothfully and sloy enly neglected. It promises to fHrn ish ample and adequate fire protee ton. It promises that its candldafe' will furnish a faithful, able and hon est administration of the government of Bisbee, and will work for the besi interests of the people It pledges it's nominees to the immediate seeuT ine of a townsite patent, in order tha' every citizen may have and hold clear and, clean .:itle to his properly It pledses it's candidates 10 the CD dsavor to secure free postss delivery

A disordered stomach may cause no end of trouble. When the stomach fails to perform it's functions the bowels become deranged. she liver and kidneys congested, causing nu- merous disease, the most fatal of which are painless and therefore the more to be dreaded. The important thing is to restore the stomach and liver to a healthy condition, and for this purpose no better preparation can be used than ChaInberiain's Stomach and Liver Tablets.

We defy any living person in Bisbee to show where the Republican party itself, or through its organ, has ad vanced a single argument or satisfac tory reason for any member of it's tick ct being elected to office. They had none Its a lie," has been the ex tent of the vocabulary of the g. O. D in Bisbee. Maybe that is convinc' ing, but t is doubted Has it promis. cd the people a single bettermeHt oi the conditions? We leave it to the people ts decide.
