Bisbee daily review. [volume] (Bisbee, Ariz.) 1901-1971, 1908-10-20

important question. Mr.. Cameron, is:
DO YOU, Mr Cameron. remember
the railroad strikes or 1898 and 1897
II you do, win you kindly tell the peo-
pie why Il was that you walked from
Williams TO Challendar, and why the
people at Williams would not let you
have p horse TO ride2 Il you are snch
IN enemy of railroads, will you ex-
plain why Won were acting asa strike
breaker. if that be true. in '93 and
'94?
Another question. Mr.. Cameron: IS
il not a fact that While you We're su-
perintendent of mine near Hackber-
ry. Mohaye county, a number Of min
ers under your management never
got their wages and are still waiting
for them?
Now, Mr.. Editor, regard these
questions rs far more important than
several which / have seen in the
press of Arizona; although some o.
these questions and comments there
on are much to the point, and Of VI
tai interest, the following being a
copy of them. as clipped from a pa
per taken by one of my neighbors:s
why not, Mr.. Cameron, tell MS
how you happened to promise at your
Phoenix meetings that you would Sc
cure statehood by March 4, or that
no man need ever vote for you again!
The fact is that even If elected. you
would not take Office until one year
from December, therefore. what olo
you mean by your p,omise2
Why not tell us, Mr. Cameron, the
truth about your nomination as dele
cate to congress? Did not Governor
Kibbey, who controlled the eonven-
uon which nominated you, shelye
General Sampson and name you as
payment of political debt he owea
you for bolting the republican con
fcution in Tucson last April and TAX
ing active part in the runp gather
ing at the santa Rita? Did not YOU
use angry expressions on the night o.
the bolt against Colonel Herring ana
other staiwart republicans who re
tained their seats in the regular con
vention?
Tell us something about yourself.
Mr.. Cameron. Tell us whaS cOndi-
tion your books were in when yoa
left the office of sheriff of Coconiuo
county. why be 50 constantly bash
ful about your own record? Give us
T something ~ base an opinion of you
upon
In the north, we note, you are urg-
ing your long fight with the Santa Fe
over the Bright Angel trail as rea-
/ son the voters should support you. IN
the south. newspapers, acting in your
behalf are issuing literature, purpoTt-
ing TO be from heads of the railroad
in The north, advocating Your candi-
dacy. Now. Mr.. Cameron, why not
/ tell US what your real standing re
garding tho Santa re railroad is.
Take up a few issues, Mr.. Gamer
on, .and don't give Us simply a lot OF
platitudes concerning statehood. Both
the republican and democratic parties
have promised Us angle statehood.
and there is no question that both
you and Mark Smith are heartily in
favor of obtaining it at the earliest
/ possible moment. Take up some OF
( he debatable issues that the people
ran know where you stand on them
Il do not know, Mr.. Editor, wheth.
ec or not you viii give the above
| space in the columns of your excel
tent paper. but in tie interest of the
{ people no are about TO go 10 the
| polls to Tote for a delegate to con
/ gress. ! believe you should do so, and
some of my neighbOrs who know you
well assure me that you will do so. In
the interest of Lat ideal government
which is best because It governs the
{ ls'st. I remain yours truly.
HARD ROCK MINER.
