Opposed to Third Terms.

The result of the primary election
held yesterday would seem to indicate
that Frank Murphy is the choice of
majority Of the democrats of Tucson
for sheriff of Pima county for a third
successive term.
1t is demonstrated political fact
that it is much easier to nominate a
candidate than to elect him. The
safety that surrounds the ballot box
on election day is generally conspi-
ciously absent at the primary meeting
and the republicans who rallied in
such force at the democratic primary
yesterday Will probably have business
on their own side of the house on the
Sth of November when the officials
ballots are cast.
The granting of third terms 20 coun-
ty officials is contrary to the true
spirit of democracy and inimical to
efficient aud economical government.
\ nomination for a third term will
not change the attitude of those who
are opposed to a third term on prin-
ciple.
viii Mr.. Murphy, if elected sheriff
for a third term, be candidate for a
fourth term two years hence?-Tucson
Citizen.
Correct you are, and we're with
you. The Pima democrats are no
worse, however, than their brethren in
Yavapai. They have sluiced the
party here on that question to a
finish, and so far as principle figures,
they believe in perpetual succession,
or in creating a unique standard of
county pensioning. This action of
the democracy of two Arizona coun-
ties should in this campaign be known
as Pension Order No. .. What a
reflection it is after all on the intel
ligence and the fidelity of men who
are identified to a political cause to
see their efforts cast aside or in other
words kicked out of a party that is to
be usurped by a single individual.
As a matter of principle such NOM
inees should be defeated, whether in
one party or the other.

The Passing of Senator HOar.

At Worcester, Mass, on Sept. 80,
George Frisbie Hoar, senior United
States senator from Massachusetts,,
died at his home in that city at l %
o'clock this morning.
The end followed a period of uncon-
seriousness that lasted since early
Tuesday, and came so gently that
only the attending physicians were
aware of the exact moment of his end
ing. -.-
Senator Hoar was a man of great
readiness in debate, of ample accom-
plishment, and OF unbending princi-
pie. courage and independence.
There was no public man whose abil-
ity was more generally conceded or
whose in1exible honesty was more un-
iversally acknowledged. He had oc-
cupied MANY important public posi-.
tions outside of politics and had taken
an especial interest in educational in
stitutions and projects.
Senator George Frisbie Hoar was
born at Concord, Mass. August 30,
1896.
He was educated at the Concord
academy and at Harvard college. from
which he was graduated in 1916. He
then studied law at the Harvard law
school and was admitted to the bar
in Worcester, Mass, where he became
city solicitor and president of the
trustees of the library.
In 1851 he was elected to the Massa-
chusetts legislature and in 1856 to the
state senate. In 1868 he was elected a
representative to the Forty first con-
gress and was sucressivey re elected TO
the three following congresses, but
declined a denomination to the Forty
fifth. He was then chosen United
States senator from Massachusetts.

DEATH OF CHAS. SABIN.
Stricken With Pneumonia on Thurs
day and Dies on Saturday.

The announcement, on Saturday aft
ernoon of the death of Chas. NJ. Sabin
came not only as a great surprise, but
I as a shock to the county. Very few,
/ even of his most intimate friend:
knew of his illness as he had only
been sick about forty eight hours.
He was around town as usual OIL
Wednesday and during the evening
was down town also, apparently in
his usual health.
On Thursday morning be complain
ed of illness and rapidly grew worse,
two physicians being called, who
readily diagnosed the case as one of
pneumonia in its most violent form
and despite all that medical skill
could suggest he continued to grow
worse until death ensued which was
about 2 30 O'Clock on Saturday after
noon.
Mr.. Sabin had an extremely large
circle of friends all over the county,
who will learn of his demise with the
most profound sorrow. He was en-
ployed as a Pullamn conductor on the
S. f. P. and P. railroad for eight or
ten years and everybody who ever
came to Prescott, on a Pullman car be-
came acquainted with him, and to
know him was to love him.
He was universal favorite with the
patrons of the ST. p. and P. railroad
as he was with all of the officers and
employees of the road. He was court
eous affable and obliging in the dis
charge of his duties. Since leaving
the employ of the Pullman company
he has been engaged in promoting
the sale of mines and was making
good progress as he had some impor-
tant deals under way at the time
this summons came so suddenly
which called him from the active
scenes of earth. Had he lived he
would no doubt. have been instru-
mental in securing large amounts of
capital for investment in this section.
Deceased leaves a young wife to
whom he was married only about a
year and mother to mourn his loss.
The latter resides in Los Angeles.
The funeral will take place from the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Tis-
dale on Alarcon street where Mr.. and
Mrs. Sabin had resided, this after
noon at 4 o'clock under the direction
of H. Nj. Maus & Co.

Rock Island for Arizona.

An Associated Press dispsch from
Bisbee contains the following on rail.
road matters:
ga conference was held today be-
tween a delegation of twenty-five
Douglas representative business men
and President Walter Douglas of the
Ell Paso and Southwestern railroad.
The building of the car shops of the
road at Douglas was guaranteed.
Sharp rivalry between ,Naeo, Douglas
and Don Luis developed. Henry P.
Barbe of Los Angeles a year ago plat
ted the TOWNSHIP of Don Luis and
started the town.
"The road is owned by the Copper
Queen company and extends from Ell
Paso to Benson. Douglas already has
the smelters of the company and the
mechanical department. Each of the
three places in the race for the shops
made generous offers of land, but the
town named after the road presidents
father got preference.
'The town is but three years old,
has a population of nearly 5000 and is
destined to become an important rail-
road center for western points. The
granting of the shops to Douglas has
important significance in that rumor
that Rock Island might extend its
line to the coast via this route is
practically established as a fact. A
half million dollars will be expended
in building machinery. The contract
is already let to Powers and Co., Of
Ell Paso. The same firm bnilt the mas
sive subway flume at Bisbee to pre-
vent destruction by floods.

B0ttIing of Delegate Rodney.

The Albuquerque Journal of the 2Stl
has the following from the seat o.
war in San Miguel county affecting
the Rodey desertion from the repub.
lican party, and his endorsement by
the clique of republicans who would
sustain him at the polls The ques.
tioD resolves itself down to a plain
analysis of the issue. Thus, the dem
ocrats and the Independent republi-
cans want Arizona to go in on the
Rodey merger. The Journal says:
Las Vegas, n. NJ, Sept. 27-lf Dele
gate B. S. Rodey has no better pros
pect of support than is offered him
in San Miguel county, he will seek
promptly to influence his over-zealous
campaign managers to intercept his
boom before it is launched. There
we're siytyfive delegates in the conven-
ton held on the west side yesterday.
The convention was in no sense a
nominating convention, being called
merely for the purpose of efecting an
organization of the socalIed independ-
ent party and receiving the allie
glance of Jose Santo Esquibel, a gen
tleman who for score of years has
been dropping from one party to an
other with a persistency more sugges-
tive than alarming.
Delegate Rndey has no more ont
spoken political enemies in New Mex
leo than the men who make up the
independent party. They have attack
ed him in the bitterest manner, charg-
ing him with being responsible for the
loss of the west side postoffice. In
the opinion of both democrats and re-
publicans the independents will vote
for Money rather than for Rodey.
Nevertheless the democrats of the city
are anxious that Rodey should be
nominated by a republican faction in
the territory, and they are making
every effort to further such an end.
They say if Rodey runs on an indie
pendent ticket, while he will have no
show on earth of being elected he will
greatly increase the chances of their
man. The regular republicans of
this county will be to a man with the
administration candidate and Andrews
is certain of getting a large majority
here, under any conditions. Mr..
Rodey has a great many warm friends
here and admirers in Las Vegas who
will be glad at some future time to
support him in anything he may
choose to ask for, but he will lose all
these friends if by heading an indie
pendent movement he assists in max
Ing votes for the democrats. Mr..
Rodey's staunchest supporters here
agree that he will sign his political
death warrant if he declines to sup
port the regular party ticket.

SUMMONS UNEXPECTED.
John Bagby Dies on Sunday Rather
Suddenly.

John Bagby, proprietor of the Owl
saloon, died at Mercy hospital on Sun
day afternoon at o'clock. He had
Let \ in poor health for three or four
oars being compelled to spend his
winters in California. He was advised
/ Two or three years ago that an opera
ton was necessary but he did not take
kindly to the suggestion, but bis con-
dition became so bad that as a last
resort in the hope of saving his life
he consented to it.
The operation was reformed last
Friday and he rallied from it splen-
didly, and on Sunday morning he said
he felt better than he had for many
weeks. Other complications, however,
set in, and about IL o'clock his con-
dition became worse, and he sank
from that time very rapidly until
death occurred. He retained posses
sion of his mental faculties, though
up to the very last, and passed away
as if going into gentle sleep.
Deceased was born in Pittsfield,
Illinois in April 1919. \ sister still
resides at the home town and his
brother Charles Bagby, who formerly
resided here is now resident of
Tacoma, and is enroute to Prescott,
having been advised of the death of
his brother by telegraph. Pending
his arrival no arrangements will be
made for the funeral, though it will
probably take place the latter part of
the week, due notice of which will be
given through the press. Deceased
had resided in Prescott for ten years,
and was known for his honorable deal
ings with his fellow men, his word be-
ing as good as his bond, and his bond
being worth its par value.
On his engaging in business in Pres
colt, there we're associated with him

Inns and VIM Ashton ard of the six,
