sons appreciation before it was read into
the statute books of the Nation, and every
one of these laws have been live, palpi-
tating measures for the we'll being of the
whole Nation. No man has come to the
head of the government that has had the
confidence of the people in so great a
measure as has Woodrow Wilson, and
day by day the good work that he has
done during the past eighteen months be-
comes more and more apparent. Demo-
Gratis. republicans. progressives, and in
fact every political party of this great
country have implicit confidence in the
broad mind that is now steering the ship
of state into the harbor of well being.
But that no mishap may occur bringing

dent has in view to better the conditions
OF the people and the country, it is neces-
sary that every democrat get together and
see that on the Sd of next November the
full party vote is polled for not only the
congressional ticket, but also for the men
that are bearing the party brunt in the
tight, from governor down to the smallest
precinct officer. 1t is the men that the
party has presented to the people at the
late primaries that have to bear the bur-

duty to give them loyal support in the
election. They are your candidates by an
overwhelming vote in the elimination con-

yourselves to again cast your vote for
them.

dates. while the progressives have en-
dorsed others, showing that the demo-
Gratis have made no mistake in re-
nominating the present state officials
Every one of them have made good, and
more especially those officials composing
the lax Commission and the Corporation
Commission. In this regard no state in
the Union has made more progress in
rate cases. nor in the equalizing and fixing
OF tax rates than these commissions.
And coming down to county affairs and
the men that the democratic voters, at the ,
primary election, placed before the people
for their suffrage, we can refer to them
individually and understandingy from
personal knowledge. One and all these
candidates received an overwhelming
majority at the primaries and had the
election been held under the primary law
that obtains in California there would have
been no need of further election.

OF Henry Lovin, now representing this
county in the State senate. Mr.. Lovin has
been miner. merchant and cattleman in
this county for many years and his life is
part OF the more progressive movement

desirable and best known sections of the
State. There is possibly not one man.
woman or child in this county that does

known throughout the State. In the
preparation of the constitution he was
conspicuous figure and in all the progress
sive legislation he took an active part
The eight hour law for miners and smell
ter men, the payment Of workmen in
checks on State banks, and many other

pledged to do everything in his power to
bring Mohave county the home for aged
