SUPERINTENDENT OF lNsURANc

We call the attention of the Dem
ocrats Of this county to the candi-
dacy of E. X. Pentz ct Hutchinson,
for the position of State superinten-
dent of Insurance. Mr. PETE, 1t will
be remembered, was for some years
connected with the old C. N. C. He
is a son-in-law of Joe Strothman of
EllinwOod, is a practical insurance
man, a good campaigner, we'll fitted
for the job, and We sort o. claim
him partly for this county. Let us
give him a good vote.

torney. and in the campaign OF 1910.
RheA It was hard WORT to secure ma
terial for a state ticket, be volun-
teered to take the nomination for
Attorney General. He visited some
eighty counties in the state, paid his
own way, and worked for all the
ticket. Personally he has stood by
the writer in more ways than one.
and We feel under deep obAg atious
to him.
Fred Robertson is one Of tae lead
ing young attorneys Of the northwest
He has served as county attorney Of
his county, and four years ago was
elected state senator in a strong Re-
publican district. In that capacity
he rendered the state valuable SER
vices which he is DESTROYS Of con-
tinuing in the office of Attorney Gen
eral He is the only candidate from
the twenty-five couniets comprising
the 9Th district, and that section Of
the state has been strong for him all
the time. He was a Valuable friend
of Guns In the Legislature.
These are the candidates. We
would like to vote for all OF them
but We can not do so, therefore are
compelled to choose the one whose
points in helping Us in the past are
the largest in number, and taking all
things into consideration, politics and
other matters, We believe We are
under greater obligations to Tom
Morrison than we are to either OF
the others, hence, we shall vote that
way.

What makes a woman look 80 Good

Bisbee daily review., 1912-05-21

in all walks of life. who realized that we had a mission. the failUrc of which would have a disastrous effect on their favorite sport. That widespread sentiment was the American leagues most valuable asset throughout the war period
 The gross capital of the American league in 1901. plus the resources ot all its clubs, would not equal the val ue of the 1912 holdings os several of its individual clubs. The aggregate amount expended in financing the American league during it's struggle with the National league would not suffice to equip one club Ip to the 1912 standard of either of the leading organizations of the country. More over, promoters, although provided with ample funds, would discover that there Is no demand for a third league The system under which ne Ameri can league is operated is not under stood by the public. Our methods vary little in theory from those set forth in the constitution Of every Ma tional Agreement league We insist on the strict observance Of the spirit as Wtil dS Oi lht lclttT Ol OuT ldNS, and absolutely require our club-own CTS to regard the welfare of the lea gue paramount to the interests of the individual clubs.
 Our umpires are the representatives of the league and must observe in structions in the discharge of their duties. l exercise extreme care in the selection of my stan aEd when | find a competent official 1 give him substantial evidence of the apprecia tion of the league and of myself.
 The National Commission is the cement of the baseball structure. It's province is to compel every league un der the National Agreement to obey the fundamental laws of the game, to require club owners to respect the rights of eacn other, to insure to ev cry player fair treatment and to af- ford to the salaried man prompt an0 adequate redress for wrong.
 The relative playing ss-cngth ano popularity of the rival mainr leagues would not be determined by the ex pression of my opinion. Suffice f to say that the status of the Ameri can league in its playing department and it's patronage is highly satisfact. ory to my associates and myself. and that we are confident that another Worlds Championship wifi be placed to the credit of the American league as a result of the 1912 series.
