A LURID DEFINITION

Editor Henry Waterson of the
Louisville Courier-Journal gives the
following definition of a Bull Moose:
THE Bull Moose seem to be at
once on amphibious animal and an
hermaphrodite. He stands half way
between He'll and the Iron Wraks, the
Devil and the deep blue sea. Thus he
can swim or eat live Goals, as the case
requires, be woman or a man at
will. In the north he is a dissatisfied
republican, in the south disgruntled
democrat. In Louisiana one might.
call him old Sugar-in-the-Gourd,' In
Pennsylvania the 'He-Goat of High
Tariff In Roosevelt he is masculine,
in Perkins feminine and in Pinchot
neuter. All things by turn and moth
ing long, his votaries worship at the
shrine of Teddy of the Forked Tongue
and the Tiger Heart whilst Teddy
rides him for all he is worth."-Or-
lando Reporter-Star.

FOLLOWING ocALA's EXAMPLE

If the present plans of the city
council are carried out Key West will
show a property valuation for more
than eight million of dollars.
Heretofore property has been as
sessed at a one-half valuation, and
the preliminary tax-rolls for 1914 as
prepared by Tax Assessor Casey show
a valuation of more than four million
of dollars.
BY assessing at the full valuation,
which is contemplated by the law, the
actual amount of money collected
would be no greater because the mil
lage would be CORRESPONDENCE de-
creased.
A full assessment would put the
city in a position to issue additional
bonds for an amount equal to the
present bonded Indebtedness, if de-
sired.
Council is meeting each afternoon
and going over the assessments, piece
by piece, and equalizing all property.

EVERYWHERE

The state food commissioner OF IL
linois believes, not simply in swat

hauls your food through the streets
and alleys unprotected.

throughtly wasting or peeling them.
5. Don't throw dishwater and sim
liar slops into the yard, as this
draws" flies.
6. Don't allow flies to get on the
baby.
Z. Don't allow your neighbor to be
careless as to flies.
s. Don't forget to notify the local
health officer of any fly nuisance.

VOTE FOR r. L. lNGRAHAM IN
THE PRIMARY.

THE PRIMARY.
The voters of Yuma county are
about to enter upon a primary cleo
ton which will determine who shall
fill our county offices for the next
term.
OF these various offices none is
more important than that of the SUI
perior judge of Yuma county. This
is the most powerful office in the
county and the voters should give
the most careful and unbiased
thought to the matter of selecting the
most able man for this office.
The selection of an able judge calls
for the consideration of several
POINTS. In the first place we want
A man who will pass judgments that
are fair and such as can be sustain
ed by our supreme court.
Good Judgment is a product of
several factors. A man does not sud
denly find himself endowed with
good Judgment. 1t is matter of
growth and achievement. It involves
8 large and varied acquaintance with
the manly experiences life has to
offer. This furnishes the background
for broad minded Judgment,
Good judgment demands all ac-
curate and workable knowledge of
the facts and conditions governing
the field where the Judgment is to
be exercised.
The judge of the superior court
should be man whose education
and experience in legal matters and
mlegal procedure is the broadest that
is available in the county.
II a man wishes to retain his abil-
ity to render fair, open minded un
biased judgment he must cultivate
such qualities of mind in all his
thinking and in all his dealings.
He cannot afford to cultivate any
thing but the most impartial attitude
toward all questions calling for his
judgment.
There is a man before the people
as candidate for judge of the su-
perior court of Yuma county who
can meet all of these demands. Fred
l.. lngraham received his literary
and legal education at the Michigan
State University at Ann Arbor, This
institution ranks second to none in
the land He has been admitted to
practice before the supreme court
of three states-Michigan Illinois
and Arizona. He has had fourteen
years of successful practice. During
this time he has been city attorney
for Yuma for period of four years,
and since February, 1912, he has been
county attorney. In 1911 he was
one OF the three delegates from Yuma
county to assist in drawing up our
present constitution. In this work
he reflected much credit upon those
who chose him for the part
