JACK STEVENS
 A POPULAR CANDIDATE.

There is DO more popular candidate on the Democratic ticket than Jack Stevens. He commands wide ac- quaintanee and his friends once made remain steadfast. Stevens was born in St. Louis some thirty odd years ago. Seven years of his life were spent in Colorado and the last ten in Arizona. mostly in Bisbee. He is a property owner in this city, ac- quiring a home through work in the mines. where he has earned Q living for the past eight years. Stevens father and mother and his grand parents on both sides were born in and near New York City. He is about as thoroughly American, there fore. as it is possible for a man to be in these United States, with its little more than 100 years of history as a nation.
 Stevens has made no ante-election promises. If he is elected city mar shal, he Will conduct the office strict. ly along the lines his judgment prompts him, in conformity with the law. There are no individuals or class of men Stevens has promised positions on the police force of the city What policy he will pursue should he be successful at Mondays election, will be. as he has previously stated, in line with his judgment as to the proper conduct of the office and observing the law in the perform ance of his duty.

MARCUS AuREllus sMITn.

Douglas is to have a. visit from the Hon. Marcus Aurelius Smith, Ari- zona's delegate to congress. Mir. smith has accepted the invitation of the Fourth of July committee to de- liver the patriotic address on the oc- casion of that city's big celebration. The apearance of MT. Smith in Doug las on that date will be a grat- iication to hundreds of his personal friends who will thus have an, oppor- tunity of meeting him.
 Mark Smith was. during the early period of Cochise county. resident of Tombstone; his home was there when he was first made the nominee of the democratic party for congress and from that day to this he has held the high confidence and respect of our people and be it said without fear of successful contradiction that he has always deserved the confidence of the people of Cochise county. as well as the balance of the people of the territory. He has been faith ful public servant who has ever been impartial and always earnest in his endeayor to promote the welfare of the citizens and industries of the territory. Whether his public service comes to an end now or whether he is to be continued in the service of Arizona he is man who will be ever remembered as having played an i'm portant part in the early history of | this territory.
 Mir. Smith will not come to Ari. zona to make political speech, but we may expect him to speak of the patriotic duty of our citizens, as due to nation, to territory and to the new state of Arizona.

THE REAL ISSUE
 BEFORE BIsREE DEMOCRATS.

The election to be held in Bisbee next Monday is commanding attention
 all over the territory. Naturally
 much interest eenters in the out come The Democrats in other parts of Arizona have the. utmost con fidence that the party here, in the largest city of the territory, will do it's duty and elect its ticket by majority that will sweep Republican opposition from it's feet. The Re publicans, on the other hand, are watching with eager envy, hoping that the Democrats of Bisbee can be blinded to the real significance of this election and be induced to split their ticket upon arguments that it is but a local affair and that they are not violating any principle of their party or iniuring its strength in coun- ty or territory by voting for one or several of the Republican candidates.
 In Bisbee the Republicans on Monday next hope to place their en- tering wedge for the county and ter ritoriai campaigns. They are schem- ing to split the Democratic ticket, and are most persistent in their efforts to elect a Republican mayor. Their success. should they carry the day for that office, would be heralded broadcast. It would be credited as a Republican victory. The Republi- can organization in Bisbee, Cochise county and the territory would be strengthened. Their success in this city would be noted by the leaders of RepubHcanism in national politics as the first step towards securing con troI of Arizona preparatory to it's entrance into the sisterhood of states There won't be any credit for this victory, should it occur, coming to what the Republicans now refer to as the Independent voter. After cleo ton there is no independent voter with the Republicans. He is anal gamated with the Republican party just as soon as the polls close. He is but the cats paw used to pull the Republican chestnut from the fire.
 There is much in the future polite ally for Arizona. With her entrance into the union of states and the progress that will follow that great event, there will be a new regime in state government 4 constitution viii have to be adopted. The new state will have two United States senators to elect Is representation in the lower house of congress viii be increased. There will be a re- apportionment, increasing the mem

bership of the legislature and state senate. And there will be thou sand other things that will have to be done by the dominant political party in power at the time the terri tory comes into statehood, The Republicans are burning up with 'eagerness to be the party that win organize Arizona as a state. Their interest in the election to be held in Bisbee, so far as the leaders and boosters are concerned, is focused more on the effect a successful cam paign in this city win have in placing them in line for bigger things as the men in control of the largest voting district in the territory than from any local public spirit or improve ment in municipal government they seek.
 In the city of Bisbee the Republi- cans want to build up an organiza- ton. They want a Republican mayor and council so that the friends and boosters they have to take care of can be given jobs wherever they can be supplied in the city government. There would be a general cleaning out Once in power completely in Bisbee the Republicans would forget there ever was such a thing as a Democrat who would split his ticket
 In the composite a full fedged Republican in the regalia of elective office is domineering and without gratitude. He is supercilious and dictatorial. Public office he regards as a sacred trust to be rendered no one but a worshipper at his political shrine. That is the sort of an or. ganization the Republicans believe in building up, and they frequently are not particular as to the manner or method of their building. In Bisbee they are making an effort to use Dem. oeratic voters as workmen to con. struct the framework of juggernaut to crush the Democracy of Arizona.
 In this campaign the Republicans can find no fault with the manner in which Democratic council conduct led affairs of the city during the past two years. There. is no argument that the Democrats have not done their duty fully and with a record that can be pointed to with pride. For the coming two years a splendid ticket has been nominated by the Democrats. There is not a man on il that does not have personal strength and ability to fill the office for which he has been put up. Every man in Bisbee who claims to be a Democrat, by all means should vote the straight ticket of his party next Monday His candidates are strong and there is every incentive for him to come for. ward with the support of his ballot at this time for the sake of Democracy in Bisbee, Cochise county and Arizona
Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-23

The Republicans of Bisbee are pre- sumptious to ask the Democrats to put them in office. In Bisbee there is a Democratic majority of 200 to 25O based on election figures of the past and which is probably greater now. Despite this great handicap the Re publicans go about the streets boast. ing that they have been able to con vince 200 or 300 Democrats that they don't know the proper ticket to vote. that the political faith of their fathers and forefathers and the principles of Democracy are wrong.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-23

Shattuck and Haines in the First, Allen and Edwards in the Second and Grady and Barkdoll in the Third on the Democratiic ticket form a set of candidates that are deserving of united Democratic support. In their hands the citizens and property owners of Bisbee can safely place the administration of the city's affairs during the next two years and rest assured that they will be honestly and economically conducted, and that a progressive and energetic policy of improvements will at the same time be continued.

No matter what the Republican boosters claim, vote split in favor of the Republicans next Monday is a vote cast in support of the Republican party in Arizona and the nation. Con ditions are peculiar in Arizona where the result Of an election in every small precinct and city this year has a direct bearing on the predominance of either the Democratic or Republican party in this territory. A split ticket in favor of Dr. Caven or any other member of the Republican city ticket is ticket split to boost the Republi- can party in Arizona into power and give it commanding position when tke territory is admitted to state hood

The Republicans of Bisbee admit openly that they are greatly in the minority. yet they set up claims of car rying the day next Monday for their candidates with the aid of Democratic votes. Then the Republican city cen tral committee and the Republican party at large in Arizona will take credit for whatever success is accom- 'plished It is up to the Democrats of this city to show the Republicans that they are reckoning along the wrong line. The Democrats of Bishee are not so simple minded as to stand for the "con" game the Republicans are trying to hand them
Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-23

Vote straight and vote early on Monday. The vote of Bisbee forecasts to a great extent the result of the cleo. ton in Cochise county and the terri. tory. This is the banner county oi Democracy. There is nothing can be said against the local Democratic ticket Vote for principle, not friend ship. Make Arizona Democratic iE city, precinct and territory.

Jack Stevens is a native American. who was born in St. Louis, spent IT years in Colorado and 10 in Arizona His parents and their parents were born in New York city. No one can refuse to vote for Stevens because he and his folks have not been in this country long enough with that record back of him.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-05-23

Let the Democrats remember, if any are inclined to split their ticket, that success can only be achieved by stick ing together. The fellow who would split his ticket should remember that either he himself or friend may be a candidate on the Democratic ticket in the future. A precedent can be established in Bisbee that will have a most powerful effect all over this

Chairman Holmes in his Daily Tribu- nelet promises to get in the game soon and start things, and he isn't particular whether his opponent is republican or democrat. The Kirk faction blame Holmes for staying out of the game so long. Privately good many of them are doubiously shaking their heads. It's little late to get in the game now, they say.

The polls next Monday Is no place for the Democrats of Bisbee to repay debts of friendship. No man can ask another to pay him a debt at sacrifice of his principles. There is too much at stake on the result of the coming election that will affect the political ritory for Democrats to split their ticket.
