18, 19. The Biggest
Time Ever. Sabe?

The above dates will witness
the best and biggest frontier
celebration ever given in the
Territory of Arizona, or for
that matter, the best in the
southwest.
The executive committee has
secured the attendance OF the
Western Carnival Company now
playing in Albuquerque and
that institution will be here
with one hundred performers.
twelve shows and many other
attractions.
There will be as outside
events the merry gO-round tor
the little ones. the electric fOun-
tain, Hales' car, snake farm,
etc. etc, all good attractions
in every way
No pickpockets or sharps OF
any kind will be tolerated by
the management.
We have assurances of the at
tendance Of about three thous-
and Navajos from all corners OF
the reservation and they will
certainly bring the best and
heeteSt of their horses.
The saddle races will be
stellar event. inasmuch as we
will have the best horses in
Northern Arizona and New
Mexico. The brOncho busting
and steer tying will be cham
pionship events and the purses
therefor will be from one hun
dred dollars upwards.
Five thousand dollars in cash
prizes will be given away and
we propose to make all other
affairs of this character look
exceedingly small.
All the fire companies along
the coast lines will have their
tournament here during these
dates and companies from Albu
querque to Point Richmond will
participate.
A balloon ascension will be
yiven every day by the Carni-
val Company and during the
last day there will be balloon
race. This will consist OF a
man a woman aud a monkey

ArizOnians and asked if we felt
like delivering our beloved ter
rItOrV over to strangers and an
entirely different people-the
territory that all of Us have
helped to build up and develop.
Mr.. Smiths speech was one
of the best that he ever deliver
ed, and he was repeatedly ap-
plauded.
Attorney Henry D. Ross, of
Prescott, then spoke. a1d he
touched upon the statehood
question. He told how New
Mexicos overwhelming majOri-
tV would be able to rule Arizo-
na, and Of many other unjust
propositions we would be con
fronted with in case of jOinture.
He also stated that in case this
iointure scheme should ever be
brought up again in Congress,
we would be greatly handicap
ped if Mr. Cooper, the Republi-
can nominee, was elected; his
nOn-experienCe in legislative
halls and his not being ac-
quainted with the national law
makers; that Mark Smith has
represented US in Congress for
twenty years; he is familiar
with the working of that body,
and not only does the Democrat
iC minority support him, but he
numbers among his friends
many influential Republicans.
He does not believe that it
would be good policy to swap
horses while crossing stream,
and that is what we would be
doing if we elected Cooper.
The iointure sentiment-what
little there has been-is rapidly
diminishing The unholy union
seems more repugnant every

prisons, its Outcries of delight and OF
