 We have a program tto follow If we do that we will be the most popular legislature in history. "- Representative Craig.
 The republicans may watch as closely as they choose, but they won't get any campaign thunder out of the way my office is run. Owen E Murphy, recorder.

 5olan Deputy Sheriff
 During his talk Sheriff Wheeler announced that he had appointed Jack Bolan as the Bisbee deputy sheriff. Bolan was one of WheeIer's competitors in the democratic pri- mary, and he received congratulations from nearly everyone at the meeting last night No other appointments were made. but he said that he had about decided upon a good man for Lowell.
 Mir Taylor. of Douglas, told an in- teresting story, in Illustrating the ef. feet of the fight of the Douglas Dis patch on Senator Ashurst. Ashurst led the ticket in Douglas bg nine votes. and those nine votes were cast by republicans who single-shotted for Ashurst because Of the bitter atti- tude of the Dispatch toward Ashurst
 When Mir, Taylor made reference to the hard fight made by Major George II Kelly. of Douglas, for the democratic ticket, he was greeted by storm of applause, and after the meeting a large number of those pres ent showed their appreciation of Major Kelly's work by subscribing for the Bisbee edition Of the Douglas Daily International.

Brooks Of Gila are making an effort to have him appointed to the place. Gov Hunt would not dis cuss the matter, as an official other than to say he Wanted 10 see a nan who was a conservative in the place. He said that the state must use econ omy and that there would be no log rolling on the appropriations bill. As governor he will exercise his author ity. He spoke highly of Brooks abil- ity and pointed out his experience as an accountant and auditor He said he was well satisfied that the Gila representatives would rank high in the legislature at the close of the first session.
 Gov. Hunt is well pleased with the outlook and thinks sane benefit cial laws, of a nature 10 promote bet ter business conditions throughout the state will be enacted. He is anx- ious to see the legislature in session and win call it as soon as possible, thirty days after the president issues his proclamation And busy session is promised and it may be possible that q caucus for the discussion of the laws and the organization may be called few days before the session opens.
 But it must be just before the ses- sion, as the men Of the legislature are not wealthy and it would work a hardship upon them to ask them to go to a caucus and return to their homes before the session opened. They expect to set an example for economy and think it a good plan to begin at home.

NO BUFFALO BILL PARADE
He Will Confine Himself to Giving
Perfect Performance.


The announcement is made that
Buffalo Bits Wild West and Paw
nee Bills Far East will not give a
street parade on the days of exhibit
ing in Moline and Davenport, Aug.
and 8. There are several reasons
for this decision, but the principal
one is found in the fact that horses
and men give an improved perform
ance when they are not compelled to
parade in the hot sun or disagree
able rain for a couple of hours. 1t
is furthermore advanced that delays
in transporting an organization of
the magnitude of the exhibition
often prevents the organization from
arriving in town until late, and the
work Of transferring the parapher-
MALTA to the show grounds requires
the united forces of the company in
order that the afternoon performance
may not be delayed. 1t would seem,
in that event, that it would be more
advisable to care for a proper pres
entation OF the exhibition rather
than to divide the forces into pa
rade groups and take them away
from the places where they are most
needed. By eliminating the street
cavalcade the riding stock and per-
formers are fresh for their import
ant duty of giving a high class en-
tertainment, enlisting the best of
their ability and returning to the
public the full benefit of their tai
ents, To which they are entitled. Still
another factor which has been con-
sidered by the management is the
inconvenience of the merchants of
the various cities visited by Colonel
Cody and his cohorts. Street trait
fic is delayed and business generally
is disconnected and upset Munici-
pal governments have in many cases,
recognized this fact by either refus
ing to give licenses for parades or
by making the tax prohibitive. Many
other reasons could be advanced, but
1t seems the best established fact that
the public Is more entitled to a per-
feet performance than they are to
witness a street pageant. 1t must
be remembered, however, that the
movement of the paraphernalia OF
the Wild West exhibition from the
train to the grounds will, of itself,
constitute a parade of more inter
est than any other organization can
offer. 1t will constitute a sight Of
much interest and will convince the
public that a parade, such as usually
has been featured with exhibitions /
OF this class and magnitude, is I'M |
necessary. When the weather per- /
