DEMOCRATS MAKE A
FAIR SHOWING HERE

The first state election in Ari-
zona was a democratic victory.
The ticket as a state affair car
ried with majority of about
5000. The county ticket was
badly slashed and the results
show that each voter had some
opinion of his own. The results
were, in some cases. unlocked for.
For instance, the defeat of Mr.
Burbage was an unexpected
event.
Mr.. w. P. Geary a resident of
Winslow, goes through with the
state ticket and is receiving the
congratulation of his friends.
10. Woods for Sheriff was re.
elected the gentleman being the
most popular officer now in
Office.
w. B. Woods, candida te for the
clerkship CT the Superior Court
wins by walk away.
Barnett Stiles and r. G. Cres-
well, candidates for Supervisor,
both democrats, seem to have
been elected although the re-
turns as far as received show
some doubt about Mr.. Creswell.
All in all the democrats have
gained a signal victory and
have shown Mr.. Taft that they
do not think much of his dicta-
ton.
The recall proposition being
voted out. The legislature is de-
mocra tic and when the work of
revising the laws is complete and
the business ofinformaily esecting
the Senators is done there will
be an amendment offered for the
recall of Judges and Mr.. Taft's
opinion on the matter will not
be given consideration. In fact,
the Presidents veto of the recall
made it stronger in Arizona
than anything else could have
placed it. Residents of Arizona
republicans and democrats, OBJ
lect to the dictation of the Pre-
sident and as citizens and
Americans they have repudiated
the one expressed idea of Mr..
VIM. H. Taft.

DEMOCRATS WILL

last Tuesday, is elected three
years instead of one, S had been
generally supposed.
The joke of it all is that Gov
ernor Sloan is responsible. He
set the primaries and general
election SO near the end of 1911,
that Arizona cannot become q
state till 1912. And the con-
stitution expressly provides
that the second state election
the first after Arizona's formal
entrance into the Union shall
be held in the first even number

there will be six passenger trains
