THE SCRAMBLE FOR AN ISSUE

Our democratic friends are wildly scrambling about in an. effort to at tract the attention of the voters in their direction. They have gone to the length of maligning their own can didates in order to nave an excuse to dispel an alleged popular misunder- standing. They are pretending that republicans are now accusing MT. Goldman of being opposed to munich pal ownership of water works.
 We do not know how MT. Gold man stood on the municipal ownership question when it was a question, for it is not a question now, but deter mined fact. We are sure that no req sonable and responsible republican would now assaiI any position that MT. Goldman or any other citizen oc- cupied at that time. great many voters in Phoenix did not favor muni- cipal ownership two years ago, but we know of none who would attempt in the slightest measure to interfere with it now.
  cratic brethren can bring this munich pal ownership business into this cam paign. It is an extremely difficult thing to make an issue of a proposi- tion on which all have agreed. It is a still more difficult thing to make an issue of proposition which has not only been adopted as a poli- cy. but which is already well under way toward completion.
 About a dozen years ago question of substituting numbered streets and avenues for the old Indian named streets was a subject of controversy. But substitution was made and the new names have been in use so long that the old ones have been forgotten. Why do not our democratic friends revive this question and mako an is sue of it?
 We understand that some years ago there was a fierce dispute in Phoenix about cutting down the cottonwoods which ornamented Washington street. They were cut down, but we can see no reason why the subject cannot be made a democratic issue.
 The opposition to municipal owner ship is as dead as the old Indian street names or those old cotton woods. It can never be revived into any form of opposition.
 The water works will be built with the proceeds of tne bonds which have been sold. No part of those proceeds can be used for the purchase of any private system or for any other pur- pose than the construction of new system. There is not the slightest danger of any councilman or mayor trying to upset the plans which have been adopted.
 We know that the republican candi- dates, Coggins, for mayor ano Cnristv and Cisney for the council not only do not wan' to interfere with those plans but or the contrary they will do their ut most to expedite the carrying out o them.
