Candor in 3 Candidate.

We salute the Hon. William Mitch ell Lewis. of the city of Racine, state date for office, and he has the can dor to say why he is a candidate-he wants the office. He frankly states that no friend has urged him to run. that there is no cry from the voters of Wisconsin for him to step forth and lead them. He is acting on his own motion, and of his own volition. He wants to be governor of Wiscon- sin. and this is the manner in which he has made his wishes known:

Rich Red Blood
Means Rosy Cheeks, Clear Complex ion, Bright Eyes and Plenty
 of Energy.

What does rich. red blood mean? It means brains. vitality, ambition. hope fulness. persistency. and everything worth living for.
 But you can't have rich. red blood if your digestion is imperfect; and your digestion is certainly imperfect if YOU have sour stomach. bad taste in mouth. lump of lead after eating, belching of gas and nervous unrest. So far reaching is the effect of indi gestion. that many times the eyesight is affected.
 r. you have indigestion or any symptom of stomach distress or agony, Lovett Drug Co will sell you a mighty remedy for 90 cents. and guarantee it to cure or money back.
 The remedy is called Mi-o-na. Its powerful. recOnstructive action on the stomach is little short of marvellous. It tones up strengthens and puts new life and energy into the worn out stomach in a few days. It cures by removing the cause. If you are a sui ferer. try large 50 cent box It's a small price to pay for banishing in- digestion.
 Mi-o-na is sold by druggists in ev- cry town in America. and by Lovett Drug Co. in Phoenix for 50 cents a box.

"1 am a candidate for governor of Wisconsin for two distinct reasons:
 First because l believe that the state needs a straight from the shoul- der business administration. and a governor who is not afraid of any thing or anybody, who believes in an absolutely square deal and who has the nerve to see that the people get it.
 Second. because of the honor that accrues to the man who is chief executive of such a prosperous, prom ising commonwealth.
 Furthermore. l am a candidate for governor purely on my own volition No delegations of American friends have called upon me and urgently solicited me to permit my name to go before the people, nor have l been picked out. or chosen. or even sug- gested, by any person or combinations of persons who care more for their interests than they do for the state they live in.
 My candidacy is in no sense a case of the office seeking the man, but the deliberate seeking of the office by the man who does so because of his inherent right as an American citizen and because he sincerely believes he is qualified by long years of business experience to fill the office as the people want it filled"
 Being a millionaire in the superla- tive degree. and having gained con- siderable practical experience in poli- tics as the financial packer of Sena- tor LaFollette. it is to be expected that Mir. Lewis proclamation of his ambitions will have the careful con- sideration Of the Wisconsin people. That, however, is a matter between him and them The thing that is worthy of note by the general public in this country who is honest enough to say that he wants the office. It is refreshing to see such a departure from the beaten path. We of Arizona. like our fellow citizens everywhere else. are only tCo familiar with the hackneyed form of the average can- didate's announcement. Be he a seeker of the office of delegate to congress. or of the lowly office of constable. it is all the same-he tries to make it appear that an insistent electorate would give him no peace until he consented to become a can didate. Of course, rhis time-worn process fools nobody. It is only about once in a month of blue moons that a man has to be dragged forth from his retirement and forced to run for office And if the average candidate were to wait for a call from the peo- pie his peace and quietude would never be disturbed.
 Men get offices. like they get the other desirable things of life-by hus- ting for them. As a reward for his candor and as a lesson to all liars. MT. Lewis ought to be elected gov ernOr of Wisconsin.

Three eminent men of the world happened to return to New York from Europe. the other day. on the same boat The eminence of each of them in his line prompted somebody to ask somebody else which his choice would be, if he could be either of the three. and the inquiry has started d discussion which throws a curious light on the variety of ambitions in the world. The three men were Or vile Wright. Thomas Fortune Ryan and Enrico Caruso. The one safe bet is that each of them, if he could change his personality. would like to be one of the other two. for such is human nature.

April-May Storms.

The storms Of last week were gen
eral-extended from the eastern
slopes of the Rocky mountains to
Atlantic states. Fierce snow storms
and blizzards visited the lake region.
Many people lost their lives and un-
told damage to property was done.
Most of the southern states were
visited by tornadoes and three hun
dred people perislied. Property
mounting iate- the million mark was
destroyed.
Snow and intense cold prevailed in
all localities on the eastern slope OF
main range.
The storm was not so bad on the
western slope, but smudge pots were
brought into general requisition
throughout the entire lower Grand
valley and the fruit crop was saved.
Cattle losses will be heavy in Utah
and the Middle and South park re-
gions, where hay ia all used up and
snow still deep on the ground.
AS usual this valley escaped the
worst OF it.
