FOR A PRooREssIvE PREscoTT.

It is not alone the candidates taem. selves on the RepubIcas ticket which should command the support of the voters, but the platform on which they stand. Not for many years nave the candidates for tho Mayor and Council gone before the people pledged to any policy, either of public improvement or administrative reforms. They asvs been elected without pledge or plat. form, and as a result there has not been that responsibility involved which attaches 10 elective officers backed by A party organization.
 Other cities of Arizona are moving forward in the van of progress. Pres cott alone is unfortunately standing still. Efforts on the part of property owners to improve their streets, have met with no encouragement from the administration, for reasons no one has been able to discern. If we wish Prescott to grow in population, it must provide better streets, especially in the residence districts, and more side. walks. Crossings should be cleaned after each storm, and in low places gravel should be deposited. The city must be made inviting to strangers and intending residents, and this can be accomplished, we believe, without re quiring any marked increase in the city's revenues.
 The candidates on the Republican ticket stand squarely upon a platform that demands better streets--that eall. for general street improvements and an extension of the sewerage facilities lThey are men whose record in the community Is an assurance that taey will endeavor to carry out theil pledges, and in addition there is q party organization behind them to spul them to continuous and faithful effort
 The watchword of the present cam lpnign is a Progressive Prescott . and it is one that should interest ev cry citizen who possesses a pride ir having the Mile High City known a, the most beautiful city in tae terri tory. IL is this that has prompted tn, placing of party ticket in the field and not with desire for partisan gair or party aggrandizement. But the Re publican party has worked such re formation In county affairs, that al citiezns they feel that the same eco nomical and intelligent management can he bene6cially applied to munci pal affairs. At least, they ask for tn, Opportunity to demonstrate that taey are not only willing but capable. Rea, the platform in another column, an, you will then see what they propos, to do.

received in Billings every other day.
More than half OF this Is sold here,
the balance Is re-iced and packed in.
refrigerator cars to be sent to other
towns ii this section.
"a greater part Of the raspberries
received il this city come by express
from Puyallup, Wish, and are re-
packed three times while on the way.
Such are Is taken in the packing OF
the fruit to be shipped that the losses
suffered by the express companies
from damage has been almost moth

From Billings fruit that is not sold
here is sent to the various railroad
branch lines, some go to the Red
Lodge and Bridger branches, others
are sent by way OF Forsyth to Round

points in that valley over the Mil

transported over the main line Of the

Wyo. while others are destined to
places such as Cody, Garland, Basin,
Thermopolis on the Cody branch Of
the Burlington. All the branch
lines and the main lines included I'M
territory are practically all sup
piled from this city. It means that
our produce merchants have secured

with consumers. Cars OF assorted
