Special Interview of Bisbee Review October 2
 According to Michael E. Cassidy, former Bis bee postmaster rock-ribbed Republican, and one of the best known politicians in the state Governor George w. F. Hunt is going to meet his Waterloo in November--the month when leaves and governors lose their hold and take tumble
 And the man who will play the role of the Duke of Wellington is none other than the Honorable present popular idol. At least that's what Mr. Cassidy says, and the genial eX-postmaster is recognized as an astute politician and an unusually accurate prognOsticator.
 Furthermore, Mr. Cassidy gives reason for the faith that is in him. His is idle talk he says, no capid vaporings that dissolve in thin air when struck by cold logic and reeson- Hear Mr. Cassidy:
 If ever any administration was repudiated by the voters of the party which placed it in power it was the present administration at the last demo- cratic primary Practically every one of Governor Hunts chief heutenants who ran for office failed of renominatOn and the governor himself polled through only because there of force running against him. Hughes was touted everywhere as the dry candidate and this alone was sufficient to de- party who could have beaten Hunt for the nomna- tion and he won merely because the democratic voters regarded him as the lesser of the evils
 ''To prove that majority even of the demo cratS do not approve of the Hunt policies look what happened to his chief supporters the state who ran with him. Hard luck overlook practically every one of them.
 e'In Cochise county Senator C. M Roberts
  for the corporation commission, went down to de- feat. In Maricopa county Senator C.. M. Roberts failed of renomination and Sam Bradner candidate for the corporation commission, went down to de- feat. In Marcopa county Senator H. A. Dawes lost and in Yuma representatives T. Kerr met the same fate. Callaghan, bitter enemy of the administration won impressivey for state auditor over Orme. who had the full power of the state machins behind him. And Jack Bolin, present mine inspector, pulled through only by the vote of the Maricopa county farmers most of whom never saw mine.
 Evo of thncn had th0 hack of the administration and everyone backed Salt River when the returns came in. Silver-tongued Mike Conniff and Homer Woods, the hunt leaders in the senate didn't even have the nerve to run for nomination and like Achilles at the siege of Troy, they remained suking in their tents. Already they could see the handwriting on the wall
 ''Do you remember" continued MT. Cassidy, in his plausible way ''that at the first state election three years ago about all democratic candidate needed to win was to prove that he had been a member of the Constitutional convention. It the open season to political preferment It was fetich which the candidates waved before the hypnotized E gaze of the voters, who in their dazed condition opened wide the doors of the state capitol and told the candidates to walk in. But the good old days, as the democrats fondly call them, now are over The pendeum has swung the other way and the . day of fanatcal radcalsm has passed
 'FYou in Cochise county have splendid oppor- tunity to see how some of the millenium measures have worked out The much touted initiative and referendum for two years has prevented the voters from having an opportunity to express their senti
  and 1t may continue to do so indefinitely
 fsAt the last election Governor Hunt was one of the weakest candidates on the democratic ticket N and today he is even weaker In 1911 with all the ! prestige than came from being chairman sf the consttitutional convention he barely able to de feat Judge Wells of Prescott the republican candi- date who polled 49 percent of the votes cast, against Hunts 51 per cent. Ralph Cameron is go- ing to beat the guvernor this time by much larger margin than Hunt won by the last time. Daily, hourly popular sentiment is swinging toward him. Not only will he reach the solid support of his own party andthe support of most of the Bull Moosers, but he will also poll an immense silent vote from democrats who dsgusted with the Hunt politicy.
 q know what I'm talking about. for every day numerous democrats tell US about their inten-
