the first administration under commission form of government
 But very properly that question has not been made issue in the campaign It is which voters could reach agreement if the pasn were twice as long. It is merged in the er;d question of the qualification of the candidates for mayor and commissioners. It is which be answered properly by them only after their cleo tion and, perhaps, it cannot be quickly answered then. it is of so much importance.
 But is commonly understood that certain of the candidates being supported because they favor this that for city manager; that in of the election of this that group, d certain man will be appointed auditor, another police mag strate and, in fact, understand that full list of>appointive officials has been made in the of the election of this or that group.

 They have said that the proper time, when they have been elected they will take this matter up, and after consideration they vii ;o give the appointive offices those who they think can best fill them Political personal influence will avail applicant anything.

Let There Be a Full Vote

The,e are two things which We especially urge upon the 60oO of Phoenix One is to go to the polls next Thursday and the other is, when there, support the candidates whom they believe to be the best qualified for the offices of mayor and commissioners The of the party to which they belong whose personal friends they may be and with what churches societies they may be affiliated should be given weightier considera ton than the color of their hair Their standing in the community account of their achievements in private life and the confidence of their neighbors in them should be the standard by which their effi- ciency as mayor and commissioners should be est mated.
 When four-fifths of d registered vote is cast. that is usually regarded fair showing of ci%ic interest That is if only one-fifth the people seem not to whether public affairs should be well managed or not there is for suprise.

The people of Phoenix face to face with crisis which may be followed by d model government or by the failure of the first experiment in this city with the commission form of government possible result may be wish that the city had never adopted the commission While under this form there the greatest possibilities for good under it also there the greatest possbili ties for evil. It all depends upon who administers the government

It had in mind though that who should constitute the government should be selected solely because of their superior qualifications without regard to their personal political affiliaons-as candidates officers they should have neither. It assumed by The Re publican that voters would disregard the political relations all the men presented to them, just they would disregard such relations of who would propose to build houses for them per form any other private service
 The primaries indicated that the voters. as rule did not support candidates because of their politics We believe that for the part there was d genuine desire to select the capable
 
 Out of the preliminary there have come four candidates whom The Republican had sup ported from the beginning of the campaign: Ernest w. Lewis for mayor. and Joseph Cope. Dr. l.. D. Dameron and Harry Diehl for commissioners. One of these candidates is republican, two of them democrats and of them is d progressive. But if they elected say confidently that as off of the city government not one of them will be a republican, d democrat and not one progressive. There will be four of no partisan politics at al but with wealth of integrity, ability and fearlessness give Phoenix business government-a government under which citizens will enjoy the greatest municipal advantages at mini of and under which there will be great public improvement and advancement without waste
