Arizona republican., 1913-05-02

No contestant should lose sight Of
the fact that this is opportunity time"
OF the contest and that every possible
NEW subscription should be secured
between now and the close of the Sec
ond Period, which ends tomorrow
night. Before the close of the cam
paign great many people who have
not heretofore been voting for any par
ticular candidates will come n of their
own accord and cast their ballots for
some favored syOung women. There
are many of these backward ones and
he thing for candidates To do is to
seek them out and secure their votes
before someone else does so. BY show
ing the benefit you will derive from
their help now You are certain of Sc
curing it
Tomorrow night at 10 O'Clock the
Second Period of the Contest comes to
z close, and after this time the votes
issued on subscriptions will be much
lower than those issued up to this time.
Candidates are now readily recOgniZ-
ing the fact that the difference of a
thousand votes is not a very wide mar
gin and that Il few minutes work is all
that is required to reduce this differ
ence TO nothing. a race is never end
ed until the goal is reached and there
Is-a chance for any candidate in the
list 10 step into the lead and eventually
win. While there's life there's hope
and not until the night of May l., now
SO rapidly approaching. will the race
be ended and divided.
The friendly rivalry which has been
inspired by the contest has taken hold
OF communities as we'll as individuals.
The returns, for instance, show that
some OF the smaller towns are getting
into the game for the candidates and
are going to astonish some larger COM
munitics by the size of the vote they
win cast for their candidates before
the campaign draws TO a close. And
the size OF the vote shows that none of
the candidates are sitting idle during
this most important part Of the race.
And this much is certain: the con-
teStant who is away down in the list
today is liable to show up tomorrow
with q large number OF votes and that
will change the face of the returns ire
nendously. Local pride is being slim
ufated in practically every small town
and the short candidate of yesterday
may be the faVOrite of tomorrow.
DO not let others carry away these
valuable prizes without struggle
Your chances are just as good as
theirs Make up your mind that you
will be a winner and go after the re-
wards in Il manner that will prove
your earnestnesS
There are many people who are will
ling to subscribe if they are asked
Get up your courage and go after ths
votes that are going to win for you
Success lies with these unsecureC
votes
