The copper era., 1906-11-01

InlS Will De the last issue OF the
ERA previous to the great battle of
ballots, which will occur Tuesday
next, at which time the people of
Graham county will make their
two years. The ERA realizes that
the people of this county have suffi-
cient intelligence to make their
selections without advice from any
one, but as many of the voters are
new to the country, we will again
refer in detail to the personnel of
the republican ticket:
For the Council-J. F. Cleaveland,
young man of honor and integrity.
He has resided in Graham county
many years and is a successful bust
ness man. He is we'll qualified for
the position, and if elected he will at
all times be found working in the
interest of the people.
For the Assembly,. f. Hagau
and d. W. Wickersham. They are
both old timers, and men of affairs.
Such men could not be influenced or
controlled by anyone. Their in
tegrity is above question, and if
elected the people will have servants
in the legislature upon whom they
can rely implicitly.
For Probate Judge-E. C. Moor
man, who has been practicing law for
more than an average lifetime. He
has the respect and confidence of
the public, and also embodies all the
qualifications necessary to run the
office to which he aspires. which is
one of particular Importance to the
widows and orphans of the county.
No better selection could have been
made for this Office.
For District Attorney-Lee N.
Stratton. He is Il man of ability
and energy. When he filed this Of
fee four years ago he left as clean a
record as any district attorney in
Arizona. His election means the
vigorous prosecution and conviction
of the criminal element who have
been guilty of wrong doing.
For Treasurer. H. Knapp, the
old time miner and prospector. Mr..
Knapp is the highest type of the
wage-earning class. He is not only
man of honor and integrity, but
also business man in every sense of
the term. The finances OF the
county will be safe in his keeping.
For Sheriff.. A. Anderson. In
addition to having had much ex-
perience as d peace officer, Mr.. An
derson is a thorough book-keeper
and accountant. He also under
stands the Spanish language, which
in many ways will be greatly to his
advantage. While chief of scouts
acquired much knowledge which will
be of great advantage to him in the
office of sheriff. His nomination was
? most fortunate one. The party
might have hunted the county over
several times without having done
better. He will make a splendid
sheriff.
For School superintendent. H.
Larson, school teacher by pro-
fession. He has fitted himself to
follow teaching, and in fact has been
! tea ching for many years. If elected
4 he will devote his entire time to the
| office, and will bring it up to date in
every respect.
For ReCorQer-JdmeS Duke Is a
Woodworking school teacher, who is
well QUALIFIED for the Office to which
he aspires. He is very popular in

of his life. He is a good citizen and
will make an excellent officer.
For Surveyor-A. Z. Cotton, who is
a thoroughly competent civil en-
gineer.
For Supervisors-Joe Terrell and
Free Hubbard are two of the strong
est men in the county. They are old
time residents of the county and
men of affairs. If elected the peo-
pie can rely upon it that all parts OF

scented, and that the business of the
county will be transacted in a square
and economical manner from start tc
finish.
