The democrats of aiia county should no. be led into any vote trading schemes on election day. Tho republicans do not hope to elect more than two or three of their candidates, and these only by 6 system of trading. Their principal efforts will be to secure con trol of the county government. It is, therefore, the duty of democrats to sup port Pat Rose and J. 8. Miles for su- psrvisors. They hope also to defeat Henry Thompson and secure control of the sherif's office; but this they can hardly accomplish as the county has never had better sheriff than J. H. Thompson, and there exists no reason why he should be defeated.

If the schools of Gila county arc brought to the highest degree of per lection, it must be by having an ex- perieuced teacher and superintendent at their head. Tho mere computing of re- ports and statistics is not sufficient. Work in the schoolrooms must be di- rected, and 1t take an experienced teacher to do this. Tho democrats of Gila county offer such a man to tho people in the person of Fred Neimyer, who has had years of experience both as teacher and superintendent.
