 santic corporation, having a capital ration equal to the assessed value of the county. which is in round num- bers $13!D00. 900. The election on 9th is the biennial election of officers and directors of this po- litisal corporation. who are elected tc hold office for.5Se succeeding two years. and tol hS4 zSa4 sdIte tass affairs of the 'c5fpofation in the best interest of s4oo stockholders. and tb keep the cost of management and ad ministration down to the lowest pos sible figure.
 In determining how to cast our bal lot intelligentiy for the best men qualified to hold the respective of Aces, we are guided 10 certain ex- tent by the record of some of the off cials who have held office for the past two years. These men whose names again appear on the Demo cratic ticket have been tried out" and in again electing them to the Board of Directors of County Affairs. We are voting for a continuance of the efficient and businesslike admin istration for another two years.
 Two years ago Stewart Hunt, the Democratic candidate for sheriff. was elected by a narrow margin over Jos. c. McCabe, his Republican opponent. Mir. Hunt entered upon the duties of his office in the same manner as he has discharged every duty imposed upon him since coming to the county more than twenty years ago. He has treated all persons having business with his office fairly and impartially. Licenses have been col lected promptly when due, and while it is true that CochiSe county has been growing rapidly, it is due to a great extent to the energy and dilli gence displayed by the present sher if. that every dollar of license money for the years 1905 and 1906 has beer collected. During the years 1s0; and 1904 the sheriffs office in thi: county collected $SO,5S6 in licenses During the administration of Stewart Hunt the amount collected up to date is S109,6S6, AN INCREASE OF TwENTy-NINE THOUSAND DOL LARS oYRRsANY PREVIOUS AID MINISTRATION. Under Stewar, Hunts administration there have beer 10 toy deputy sheriffs, parading about the differents precincts of the county with a cannon strapped te their waists. The privilege of carry 'ng a gun in Cochise county, by au thority of a commission as a defutJ sheriff, has become a thing of tAe past and as a consequence it Is rare occurrence to read of gun play ir Cochlse county or man beat ovei the head with a six-shooter.
 The Democratic sheriff of CochisG county has not devoted much of his time to politics. He has given his whole attention to the management oi his office, and the report of the late grand jury complimenting the sheriff jailer and deputies is a certificate from a representative body of Co chise county citizens testifying to the able manner in which he has conduct ed his office.
 HOW ARE YOU GOING TO VOTE:
 Isn't this the kind of a man the citi zens of Cochise county want in the important office of sheriff? Isn't he deserving of a second term at the hands of his constituents whom he has served without complaint from any source? Isn't it the bounder duty of the taxpayers to encourage public official in the honest discharge of his public office in their interests and who thinks more about curtailint the expenses of his office than hs does of being hale fellow well met
 The return of Stewart Hunt to thu sheriffs office for another term means the endorsement of honest. economi cal government. He has been triet in the position and by every rule o politics he is again entitled to re-elec ton.
 On the Democratic ticket we find several such men. There is Gaines Bowen. Goodbody, Bailey. Roemer M'Neish, who have served the count! Tn an official capacity during the pas two years of Democratic administra tion. The tax rate in the county to day is almost one-half of what 1t wal In 1903. These men have been. a par of that administration. and can b' trusted to again discharge their ofn cial duties with the same regard fo the welfare of the county and the beS
