For County Recorder

Paul s. Coffin, the Republican nominee for county recorder, is a young business man of Flagstaff and is we'll known to the voters throughout the county. What the taxpayers of the county demand above all else is that the affairs of the county be conducted on strictly business principles. To do this it is necessary that only good busi ness men be selected to fill the county offices. Mr. Coffin is good business man. having made a sue cess of his own business and is in every way qualified to fill the DO sition he seeks. It is not a mat. ter of "party," or of sentiment, in selecting men to carry on the ai- fairs of the county, but it is a mat ter of business, and it is duty you owe to yourself to select none but good men to office A vote for Mir Coffin will insure that the affairs of the recorders office will be handled on a strictly business basis.

For State Senator

A vote for Fred Breen for State Senator will be a vote for a man who has had experience in legisla tion under trying conditions, and who has always emerged with fly ing colors. It was he and Tom Coalter, with some other friends of the northern part of the territory, that eaved the Northern Arizona Normal Schoolin 1909 and against strong opposition, which tried to iegislate this educational institu ton out of existence. It is the only public institution in Northern Ari- zona, and should be supported.
 MT Breen knows our needs ana will be found always fighting for the rights ot his people.

For Representative

Thos. Maddock, of Willia ms, is young and successful business man There is not better posted man in this section and he understands what the people of Coconino county want rom the legislature and is fully able to take care of himself in any legislative body. In our opin- ion vote cast for him would be a vote for progress, for progression is his motto and he would work for the best interests, not only of the state in general, but for his county in particular Careful considera- tion of Mr. Maddock's claims by the voters will assuredly convince them that he is all that could be asked as representative and a poll of the vote on election day will show that the people have done so, we believe.

who has travelled all the roads of the county and in other parts of the territory, has built many of them and knows good road from a bad one when he sees it. Many hundreds of dollars are spent on our county roads each year, and it is absolutely necessary and good economy to place man in charge of this department of county gov ernment who will see that every dollar committed to him will be spent where it will do the most good, regardless of section or other consideration.

REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOB UNITED
 STATES SENATOR.

STATES SENATOR,
 Was in Williams last Thursday looking after the interest of his candidacy. Ralph was+in his usual good natured mood, with his broad smiles and warm handshakes, and seemed to be more than pleased to meet the boys of his old home county after his absence of some weeks in the southern part of the Territory, where he has been carry ing on very arduous. but success full campaign.
 Mir. Cameron will be elected by a larger majority than he was in 1908, and it is no more than jus tice that he should be, in recogni- ton of his faithful services to his constituents while he was in con- gress.
 We hardly deem it necessary to mention the things that he has done during his term in congress; yet duty compels us to mention some of them.
 First Mir. Cameron promised the people of Arizona if they would elect him that he would bring home S 'atehood, which he did, but at the same time he was not satis- fled with that alone. He prevailed upon congress to give Arizona more land than any state has ever had when it was admitted. He also got land enough to pay off the indebtedness of several counties, Coconino among the rest, thus put ting several hundred thousand dollars into the hands of the tax payers of the county. He relieved several hundred old soldiers by giving them pensions that they had tried years to. get, and many other things which-space forbids us to mention. We must say in conclusion, how ever, that MT. Cameron has pledged himself to the enforcement of the most progressive ideas of the Re publican party, keeping in view the welfare of Arizona and her cit izens first and above all
 Contractor Frank Boulin is busy at present building an addition 10 the Rabbit store at Ash Fork.

County Treasurer

The keeper of the penple's cash should be man against whom the finger of suspicion can not be pointed-a man of experience in clerical work and who is capable accountant.

For Supervisors

For members of the county board of supervisors the Republican party has brought out men of business ability, honesty and industry-men who have made success of their own business and who may be de- pended upon to conduct the coun- tvs business in the same manner.
 These men are responsible busi. ness men and know what it is to realize the value of dollar. and to expend it in a business way.
 Vote for George Black, Dick Bongberg and Harry Gray and you will make no mistake

 Tom is that kind of man and will be found on the firing line all the time.

The office of county recorder is one calling for peculiar fitness, honesty and an accommodating disposition in the Incumbent-a man who will always be found at his post, ready to oblige the pat rons of the office at any time.

It see ms useless to commend Jim Lamport to the people of Coconino county, as his name is as familiar to everybody in this community as is the alphabet to a school child.

 "WAsHNeToN, D. G., Feb. ', 1911. After more than month of careful and ceaseless investigation and inquiry, I can unhesitatingly say that if the constitution Is rati- fled statehood for Arizona will be defeated at the present time

Now listen to what the friends of the constitution in congress had to say the very next day:
 "WAsH1NGToN, Feb. 8, 1911. Arizona Gazette,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Replying to your telegram of the 7th, must differ from Delegate Cameron's deduction as stated in his telegram quoted by you the one above] as having been sent to all Arizona papers. So far as our voice and vote are concerned, Ari- zona will not be deprived of state hood because of the constitutional popular government features, par ticularly the initiative, referendum and recall. We can assure you that we believe that the people of Arizona have wisely incorporated these provisions in their constitu- ton, which permits them to con trol legislation and keep their pub lie servants accountable to them. This principle is fundamentally and eternally right and the people of Arizona should adhere to if.
