One Man Who Sticks

One Of the interesting political nights now beginning
IN Arizona for the office Of state superintendent OF
notwithstanding partly for the reason that Gov
Hunt IS reported TO thrown his influence against
State Supt C. o. Case for reelection. The governor
said to be in favor Of the nomination and election
of J. A Higgins former superintendent Of schools Of
Maricopa county for the state office
Gov Hunts antipathy to MI Case IS said to be based
on differences regarding capital punishment, M Case
being one of the members of the pardoung board which
has deprived the governor of Of his cherished unc-
lions.
It will be an interesting fight also because Mr.. Case,
though he has held the state office nearly term, is
comparatively little known to the voters Of the state
He went into office strict party vote. He IS no
attractive personality man, while MI higgins IS quite
a campaigner.
There is this to be said about Supt Case; He is
not impressive on first acquaintance He often appears
undecided what to say do. But that is the
face He makes up his mind. and keeps 1t made, as
Gov. Hunt can testify. He doesn't bulge inch. Hav
ing entered the present for office, Mr. Case viii
stick until the last vote is counted. Gov Hunt may
have aligned himself against poor campaigner but
very efficient official and everlasting slayer.

Defeating The Censorship

The Army and Navy Journal furnishes with the
information that the censorship imposed by the Amer
lean army on the border and in Mexico has been almost
complete failure and its results groesque stating that
while correspondents have lived up to the letter Of the
regulations newspapers have received from returning
troops OF otherwise, information desirable to be with
held and which might prove Of value to an enemy
In this connection it is well to state that, Of the
printed news which might have been stricken out by
censor practically all has presumably been well known
in Mexico before It reached the United States And
the remainder has out in army official reports
Practically every printed line, upon which any re
LIABILITY could be placed regarding the numbers and dis
position of American troops IN Mexico mas come out IN
official reports as for instance, few days ago when
Gen Pershiug reported he sending two squadrons
of the 18th cavalry the relief Of the Carrizal SUI
vivors
It so happens that readers generally which includes
correspondents are less interested IN troop movements
and such matters Of military value to an enemy than
in the news of actual campaign deveopments-the
routing of one band Of bandits the killing OF capture
of another the number Of casualties sustained, and
As matter of fact, if the department were not
defeating the verv ends the censorship Is supposed to
serve Mexico would have been Immediately informed
that the entire national guard had been ordered
modified and moved to the border You can't expect
a thing to be kept secret if you tell 1t yourself
It's usually incorrect to write ~John Smith had MS
leg broken" Sounds as though Smith were trying to
collect accident insurance.

Ed J. McArdle. who has filed for

ter considerable thought before he agreed
TO allow the use Of his name in connec-
ton with a petition filed by friends. He
announces the following platform:
First-I believe that Il is wrong and
unjust for the sheriff of Douglas county
to receive any profit on the feeding Of
prisoners In the county jail. The ITls-
oners in the county jail should receive
clean. wholesome food at actual cost and
the county should not pay any profit TO
any man for the feeding OF said prisoners
as II is purchased by the County hos
pital and the prisoners should be COM
pelled to do the actual work % cooking
and preparing the same. Under suCn a
system believe that / could save the
county of Douglas several THOUSAND dVl-
ample for the work performed and he
should receive no extra pay. Again the
sheriff OF Douglas county should devote
his entire time to the office and She uld
have no other occupation or employ
ment. II should be elected I shall de-
vote ell Of my time to performing the
