court house and other necessary coun- ty buildings; can entertain several hundred visitors; is a healthful town; has fine water, electric light, gas, sewer, electric street car systems, al so the best fire and police protection in the territory; and while not an old city, is thoroughly established. Is the pacesetter of all the cities of the county. No other candidate possesses all these qualifications.
 In justice to Bisbee. it should be stated that the unhealthfulness of that city has always been exaggerat- ed, and that with a new sewer sys- tenn, paved streets and an efficient board of health, there can be no doubt that the Bisbee of today, which is al- so in other respects a vast improve ment over that of two years ago, is one of the most healhful cities in the territory. But Bisbee is too noisy, crowded and hilly for county seat pur- poses in the city proper, and to place the court house in the suburbs of any city is manifestly out of the question. We are unable to see why Warren should be entitled to any considera- ton at the present time. It does not yet possess the primary requisite stability. It is new, incomplete, un- tried; and, while we have. reason to believe that the Warren of the future

P. J. Mccullough will succeed him self as street commissioner. Nc CuIIough has record that could not be beaten nor equalled by very few men in the country. It is admitted both by republicans as well as demo crats that Mccullough is the right man for the position he holds. He has demonstrated that he knows his busi- ness. The republican mayor and members of the council at recent meeting publicly congratulated Me cuIIough on the thoroughness and economical manner in which he con ducted the street department of the city during the two years of his ad- 1ninistraton. Bisbee's streets and sewers have all been made what they gre in that time, and P. J. Mccullough was the man behind the gun.

For a few days Jack Stevens, can didate for city marshal, has been i'll, but he is now out and around again receiving assurances from the voters of Bisbee that he will be the next city marshal Stevens is the right man for city marshal. He is cool, capable and a man of good judgment. His work in the mines during the past five years has won him a wide and popular acquaintance among the miners, who will be for him next Mon day.

REAL MALESAcTORs."

Let no man seize the moment when We have as a nation pilloried the real malefactors to say that all American business men, or even any considerable number of them, are malefactors," said MT. Roosevelt in his reply to the committee from the National Prosperity association.
 This is indeed inspiring, says the New York Worlde Who are the real malefactors" that have been piIlor- fed? What are their names? What has been done 10 them? In precisely what cases has the "one responsible man" been sent to jail?
 Since Mir. Roosevelt established government by denunciation several hundred thousand men have begun to tramp the streets and highways look ing for jobs. It may console them to know that the president does not re- gard them as maIefactors and that their misfortunes are in no sense a punishment. Tens of thousands of business men have been walking the floor by night wondering where they could get money to pay their bills, meet their expenses and keep the wheels moving. It must comfort them to be assured that even if the banks refuse to extend their notes, MT. Roosevelt is willing to give them a

It will be a long time before Bisbee has a more able man to vote for than they have in George Neale, Democratic candidate for mayor. Neale always knows where he stands. With a le- galIy trained mind he arrives at con cIusions logically and correctly. George Neale will be a leader, as he should be, serving as mayor of Bis bee. Naturally he will be qualified to point the way in legislation, not in cIined merely to follow and endorse the action of others.

He was always alert for the best interests of the city, and his policy in council has never been open to the slightest criticism. His running mate, W.

rhE COUNTY SEAT.

The removal of the county seat from Tombstone is now being agi- tatea so strongly that in all probabili- ty the subject will be voted upon at the next general election to be held in November of this year. It is not to be supposed that the sentiment in favor of removal is new. On the con trary, it has existed for several years. When, in fact. Bisbee nnally settled down to business as a producing camp, the handwriting was already upon the wall. Since that time the sentiment has grown more wide spread, with the rapid growth of Douglas, Lowell Warren, and Bisbee itself-each but the logical result of Bisbee, the greatest producing min ing camp on earth.
 It is not difficult to explain why this sentiment did not, although spreading, crystalline into definite form before. Expansion continued at so rapid a rate that there were too many other things to think of. The principal reason, however, is that un- til recently no city in the county pos sessed the necessary qualifications en- titling it to consideration. There has never been an avowed candidate be fore, those cities heretofore having an eye on the county seat not wishing to jeopardize their chances by becoming candidates at time when it was pos sible for taxpayers to raise. issue as to qualifications.
 Now, however, there are three can didates-Douglas, Warren and Bis bee. To which place shall the coun- " seat De removed!
 That it must eventually be rmovel is a foregone. con alusion. A large Ea- Jority of the listed property of the county is represented in Douglas, Ma co, Warren, Lowell and Bisbee with in a circle whose radius would not exceed twelve miles; yet the taxpay- CTS of those cities are obliged, under present conditions, to travel forty two miles (from Naco to Tombstone) to sixty-eight miles Douglas to Tombstone) whenever they have oc casion to go to the county seat. h the event of removal to either one ot the bidding cities, the distance objec tion would be largely obviated, ant a much larger proportion of the tax payers of the county would be satis fled than at present.
 In our opinion Douglas is the log cal place. There can be no possibl, objection to Douglas except that i does not possess, geographically speaking. central location; yet, a! We have just seen, with the county seat 2t Douglas, the interests of 2 much larger proportion of the taxpay erss of the county would be sub served than as conditions are now. A county seat should not be too fal from the center of population-ant Douglas IS not. It is absurd, how ever, to argue in favor of a geograph ically central location in this county when the center of population is only few miles from the international line. Let those who argue thus advo cate removal to pearce, which is . town that can honestly boast of being "central' point

It'll OF JULY POSTERS.
Committee Sends Big Sheets All Over
Statc-Fight Expected to
Bring Crowds.

Attorney c. S. Reeves and Gael s.
Hoag, members of the advertising
and transportation committee of the
Fourth of July celebration, spent the
greater part of yesterday sending out
big two colored posters which have
been gotten out for the occasion.
They will reach practically every
town and city in eastern Utah and
throughout this state.
The posters are attractive in ap-
pearance and will without doubt re-
suit In bringing in large crowd
from outside points to see the show
Ely will provide for them. Conspic-
uously advertised on the bills is the
fistic encounter between Andy King
and Frank Harden. This will re-
suit in bringing additions to the
crowd expected.
Mr.. Reeves intends covering the
whole district from Smelter to the
mines with the bills setting forth the
glory of the local celebration. In
every way the short time left for the
committee to work in will be made
the most of and it is hoped that 1t
will meet with success.

in his arrest yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Henry Ross. 1t Is probable
that hearing to decide as to his san

O'Reilly was employed at Smelter

Deputy Ross was notified of his ac-

In speaking of the district Mr.

He also was at the Elvin, which

little is being done on the property.
