home singing the praises of Mark Smith?
 Isn't 1t fact that Mark Smith is recognized in congress as one of the ablest members of the house? Isn't it a fact that had 1t not been |, for the yeoman service of Mark Smith and the Democratic members of the house and senate that Arizona today would have been yoked in joint state hood with New Mexico and the wis tes of Theodore Roosevelt and Joe Cm- non consummated?
 In Mark Smith the Democrats of Cochise county are invited to vote foI man of ability. man of influence in Washington, the oldest man in years of membership than any other member, smatchless orator, an hon. est, square, upright man, in sympathy with the principles of Democracy ana 8 close friend of w. J. Bryan.
 Answer the question for yourselves: :: 1 Isn't this man deserving of the vots of every Democrat in, Cochise coun- ty?
 A vigorous campaign has been Naged in behalf of Ralph Cameron. Thousands of dollars have veen sent into this territory by the national Re publican committee to change votes. WHY? Because the Republicans know that Arizona will be admitted to state hood in the next congress and they are engaged now in an attempt to overcome the Democratic majority in this territory in the hopes that at the first state election they can con tcol the legislature and send two high protective. trust fayoring senators to the United States senate.
 The Review appeals to the Demo crats of Cochise county to stand by their Democratic principles in this ! election. The Democratic candidates ' fer congress and the legislature are { in sympathy with the national Demo cratic platform. Fred Sutter and Os- car Roberts, two candidates for the legislature on the Democratic ticket, are pledged by the Republican terri torial platform to'vote for three cent passenger fare bill Their votes can be depended upon in favor of this ! bill. Also the election of the Demo cratic legislative ticket means the . passage of a direct primary law giv- 2 ing the voters the opportunity to ex press their choice for nominees. The i Republican platform is strangely silent on this question.
 ! Yesterday an old timer arrived in the city from Empalme, Sonora. He i left here several months ago. Be ! fore leaving he registered and is back here in time to vote. This old Demo 7 crat has travelled five hundred miles
  ! know why I have come this far tC vote the Democratic ticket?' said Mir ! Mccullough to a Review man yester day. Because Mark Smith is back 1 east fighting for Bryan and Democratic ] principles, and he is entitled to re ceive the vote of every Democrat il i Arizona"
 That tells the story. If an old Dem 1 ocTat can come five hundred miles tc vote for Mark Smith, you Democrats who are at home are being depended upon by the old guard to do your duty next Tuesday.
 ] Mark Smith carried Cochise county last election by eight hundred and ninety two votes. His majority this ! election should not be less than one thousand. Don't throw away your vote on Cameron, but let this election he warning to our Republican friends : that Arizona, cannot be swerved from its political principles, and when ad mitted to statehood we propose to send to the senate Democrats who believe ! as Bryan does and will add their votes to the Democratic majority in carry. ing out his policies and the national Democratic platform declarations
