FOR NINE INSPECTOR
To The Votes:

10 The Votes:
| am out on my own merits for
the office of State Mine Inspector.
| have worked in the metal mines
for over 35 years: | came to Col
orado in the year 1879 and went
to work in the mines as a tool
sharpener, and from that posi-
ton | worked up to the top of
the ladder, filling every position
with credit, up to superintendent.
| came to Arizona in 1892 and
went to work in the old Mammoth
mine in Pinal county; from there
| have drifted around from one
camp to another nearly all over
the territory, and | believe am
as well posted on the conditions
of the mines Of Arizona as the
average miner in the state, and
if elected | propose to cary out
the duties of the office according
to law and good judgment; and,
in conclusion, | wish to say that
| believe that this office should
be managed by a man who is not
in any way affiliated with any
political party or corporation, and
if am elected | promise the peo-
pie of Arizona a clean and un-
scrupulous administration.
Yours truly, Frank Briggs.
