DEATH OF
HON. MIKE NUGENT.

The announced death of Hon. M. J.
Nugent at Tucson on Sunday will
cause widespread sorrow throughout
the territory among his many friends
and admirers. Mike Nugent, as he
was Familiarity known in every sec.
ton of the territory was intensely
popular and he was widely known be-
cause -of his long prominence with
public AFFAIRS in the territory. Mike
Nugent was elected sheriff of Yuma
| county when a mere boy in the year
1878. His first official position was
that of assistant superintendent of
the territorial prison in the year 1884.
In 1856 he was elected to the office
of sheriff of Yuma county and was
reelected twice to succeed himself in
that Office In 1892 he was one of
the delegates from Arizona in the
national democratic convention at
Chicago when Grover Cleveland was
nominated for the third time for pres
ident. In the same year he was elect
ed to the legislative council. This
was the seventeenth. legislature and
he was also a member of the council
from, V,,r,a IN fba ai.ybtoantb IaoiSla
ture, having been reelected practical
ly without opposition. After the eigh-
teenth legislature adjourned he ac-
cepted the position of deputy inter
nal revenue collector under Collector
Charles NJ Shannon and made Phoe-
nix his headquarters while discharg-
ing the duties of that office. He held
this position until 1896, when he was
appointed to the position of superin-
tendent of the territorial prison by
Governor B. ]. Franklin. He held
this position until President McKin-
ley appointed republican governor
of the territory and since then he has
resided in Yuma, looking after his
large property interests there. He
was elected to the Office of supervisor
and chairman of that board during
1908 and 1904. In the latter year he
was again elected to the legislative
council and served during the TWEEN
ty-third legislature.
Mike Nugent was always a clean
and manly public servant, filling ev-
cry position to the entire satisfaction
of his constituents. He was a man
possessed of the noblest traits of
character. He was honest, had al
joyial disposition and was loyal 20
every friend and charitable TO every
foe. if indeed he had any.

| WAITE RSoN
FOR BRYAN.

Whatever he may be, Editor Henry
Watterson of the Louisville Courier
Journal, is not a sore-head. He has
been fighting Bryan until he has
learned how hopeless a task it was
to kee pthe Nebraskan from being
nominated, and now he is in the band

ier-Journal shows where he stands
now:
1--WE shall labor for the election of
the democratic ticket precisely as if
it stood for our original convictions
and preferences, hoping always for
an ultimate return to democracy. I'M

ton immutable and supreme except

visions; the representative character
of the government intact against
presidential usurpation and judicial
construction; home rule in state,
county and city; the equal rights Of
ali men, whether taken en- masse or
organized into labor unions and fran
chise corporations. just taxation, To-
cal and national, and, above all and
before all, tariff for revenue only.

nal will cost the party managers no
thing. they can accept or leave it
alone, just as they please. 1t does
not care hill of beans for their like

their distrust. It has received little
else than contumeiy from them the

which it has given them in return

He was one of the leaders of the
democratic party in Arizona for a
quarter Of century and in its coun-
ellis he always contended for those
policies which would rebound to the
benefit of the great mass of people.
The death of Mike Nugent removes
from life one of the best men who
ever resided in this territory and il
can be said that no man ever devot-
ed himself more unselhshiy in assist
ing the onward march of the territory
than he.
1t is expected that his funeral.

be attended by prominent men from

~soosr; DON'T KNOCK"

The slogan which is to be the bat.
tie cry of the Bisbee Board of Trade
gives evidence Of the spirit of prog
ress which prevails among the mem
bers Of that organization. Boost;
don't knock is the sentiment which
should be paramount in every city
where it is desired that progress shall
be the object of every endeavor.
The local Organization of our bust
ness men have decided on the prop
er method of boosting Bisbee and the
entire Warren district The proposed
publicity or advertising bureau is the
one and only way OF attracting OUT
side attention. The Warren mining dis
trict, one OF the greatest in the world,
has never been boosted by anyone
excepting perhaps by some local min,
ing enterprise which sought to bring
property to the attention Of capital
by recitation of what had been az
comphshed in the district in the past
To boost the Warren district it is only
necessary to tell the truthful and un
vanished story of what has been done
here by the pioneer companies, the
amount of ore mined and the tons
of copper bullion smelted from it and
poured into the lap of commerce.
1t is only necessary to imagine what
the Warren district possesses in com
parison to districts in Colorado aud
Nevada which have attracted thou
sands of people from all over the
world by systematic advertising. This
district is far greater than any to be
found in either of these states and as
much can be done to attract people
here as was done there.
One thing which should not be lost
sight of is the matter of exploiting
the excellent conditions which now
prevail in this district for the man
who desires to make his home where
he can have all the advantages and
conveniences necessary for making
his home happy and comfortable. The
conditions here now are such that the
home may be provided with every
modern facility and convenience in
any part Of the district which can
be round in any up-to-date town. Such
conditions when advertised viii bring
the very best class of labor to the
district and the best is the one to be
most desired by our business men.
Here we have water OF the best quail
ity, sewer system to guarantee clean
illness and health, electric car line
to furnish transportation to every
part of the district, telephones, cleo
trio lights, schols equal to any to be
found in the country, creditable
churches, lodges of every popular or
