A HIRELlNG'S SHREK.

E. A. Salisbury of Fl Paso, whom Ben Crawford. County Treasurer Clark and John E. Hampton, charac- terized as a liar end a fraud, who was employed by .ne Cameron bush whacaers to circulate faisehoods in Sraham and Gila counties, sits at his home in Texas, 25O miles distant, and makes faces at the gentlemen in Ora ham county who succeeded In driving the fellow out of the territory. The people of Arizona are acquainted with the three old residents of Graham county who signed the charges against the renegade-Ben Clark has been sheriff of Graham county two terms. is now treasurer of tilat county; Ben Crawford. whom every man in Ari- zona loves and respects, a stalwart citizen and an honorable mana man who has been sheriff of Graham coun- ty, and who Is respected by his neigh bors and the people of Arizona; and last, John R. Hampton. reputable business man of Graham county who represented his constituents in the last legislature. and will represent them in the council the coming win ter.
 It is the word oi these three rep utabie men on one side and the un- supported assertion Of this gutter snipe, political mendioant, on the oth- CT. a man who will lend himself to perform such secTice as this fellow was following in Graham county. is beneath the notice cf reputable citi- zens and the people of Arizona who love fair play and detest towards. will accept the word of these gentlemen. as against the affidavit of this gum shoe hireling.

Governor Kibbey and Attorney Gen eral Clark. who have been making speeches for Ralph Cameron in many of the counties of the territory failed to show up in Cochise. These repub- lican office holders are not unknown in this county. They are responsible for the assessment on all the mining claims in this county being raised 1900 per cent four years ago and 600 per cent this year. This raise was placed on every prospect hole in the cousaty. good. lad or indifferent. The raise four years ago was after. wards set aside by the courts. other. wise nearly all this property would have been lost to its owners. as it would have amounted to practical confscation. These are the men who are going around over the territory begging the people io vote for Ralph Cameron, the republican candidate for congress.

Ac- cording to the claims made by Ari- zona republicans for this Coconno wonder he could make a ten days glad hand campaign through Texas anu swing that state sac Taft easily. It is strange that bosa Hitchcock and Taft have overlookel Cameron and Joe Morrison, as Cameron claims a personal and intimate acquaintance with Hitchcock.

GOVERNOR kIs6EY's QUEER LOGIC.
CTucson Star.)

ltucScu SldT.t
 Governor Kibbey as a rule is g i careful man in his public utterances but like all the Cameron speakers 1T this campaign, he tries to mislead the voters by statements that will not stand the light of ruth. The Phoe nix Republican. the one republican paper in Arizona that is conducted along the lines of decency, that sup ports it's ticket without resorting U falsehoods and slander. reports ths governor as saying in his Wickenburg speech that Mark Smith failed to pro. tect Arizona's interests in the joint statehood fight; that a Republican senate saved Arizona" In the name of common decency, and the light O. truth, Governor Kibbey ought to bt ashamed of himself, while he remain ed at the territorial capital while the csetest was on. not lifting a finger to try and defeat Roosevelt's pet measure of 5ointure.
 Mark Smith was CT the firing line in Washington. working like trojan to save Arizona. an1 by his influence with the democratic senators sue ceeded in securing the vigorous sup port of every democratic member or that body. while Senator Foraker head ed a few disgruntled republican sena tors to aid in the good fight. The re- publican senate savei Arizona" quoth Governor Kibey as he plead for the election Of Ralph Cameron. whom every joint statehood man in Tucson says was in favor of iointure
 The aDsurdity' of coverpor Kibbey-s claim must be apparent to every fair minded man when it is known that ii took every democratic vote in the sen ate of the United States to defeat the measure, aided as they were by a bakers dozen of republicans, yet the executive has the audacity to stand before an Arizona audience and tell the people that a republican senate saved us from iointure. There is not 1 an intelligent man i2 the territory but knows well that had Q republican del. egate represented Arizona in that congress, that she w,uld now be tag ging along in the wake of New Mex. ico. Neither the governor nor Cam. eron, the man he is running for Uni. ed States marshal. were present when that battle was raging, and while we desire to say that Governor Kibbey was opposed to joint statehood. the fear of his position kept him in Phoe nix while the battle was being fought by Mark Smith and the friends of Ari zona- in Washington.
 And while we are on this subject we would Ike to hear from Mir. Cam eron on this joint statehood question We do not wish to do him an injus tice. but the joint statehood leader. in Tucson inform us without reserve that he was in favo- of the measure and that at one time he was beine considered by them as their candidate to congress. The people of Arizona are not easily deceived; they know as well as does the governor whC saved Arizona in that. crucial perioC
 of her existence. They know tha
 the democrats stood like a wall O iron between this territory and Roose velt's cohorts, and that the man tha lead the battle was the man that wa always at the front uhen our territor! was in teopardy-and that man wa Marcus A. Smith.

INCREASE
 OF VOTERS.

OF VOTERS.
 New York reports an unusual fall ing off in the registration of voters for this year, and the party leaders in the state cannot account for it, Other states, especially those whose political trend at this time is classed as doubtful" report almost an equal diminution in the number of register ed voters, and yet ell of these states have a greater population than they had in previous election years It is interesting to point to the discrepan- cy between what the present registra- ton should be and what it seems act ually to be by the use of some fig ures.
 In considering the number of per sons eligible to vote at general cleo ton in the United States at any given time, two factors are of importance. First. the mortality among the voters since the previous election; and sec ond. the number of those who have become of age during the intervening years.
 According to the census of 1900, there were in that year 21,693.3S7 males between the ages of 2l and 80 in the United States. Of these. I3.- 9s6,576 cast their ballots for a pres ident in the election of 1900. Easing calculation of the percentage of deaths among those who voted in that election upon the tables of expectan-- ey, it will be found that during the last eight years their number has been reduced approximately 1.400. 900, leaving about 12.5ss,376 of the men who voted in 1900 alive at present
 But the number, of males who have arrived at voting age since then is reckoned at approximately 5000. 900. and as the mortality among them. again based on the tables of life ex- pectancy. has been about 3S4,900, it appears that at present the number of males in the country who have arriv- ed at voting age since the, election of 1900 is about 5.6l6.G00. From care ful calculations, based upon the show ing of previous years, 1t may be as sumed that about S5 per cent. or B. G50, 900, of this number will actually vote in the coming election.
 From these figures 1t might be as- sumed, then. that as there has been decrease of I,40O,o0 in the voters of 1900, and probable increase of 3, ,659, 900 in actual voters among those who have since become of age, this year would find total gain in the popular vote of abous 2.250.OOO oSc the vote of 1900. The unusual emi- grafton to Canada ard ether countries in the past eight years might infiu- ence these figures to some extent but not enough to change them IF
 terially.
 And yet the reports do not show
 that the actual vose cast in the com Ing election will exceed that of 190C
 by anything like 90 large a number as 2,25O, ,Oo0. There seems but one explanation for this discrepancy, and i it is that there is a growing indirer
 enee on the part Of many men to ex ercise the highest tight of their citi
 zenshIp.
