1.-THE POLITICAL LEACHER l

It has been known for a long time that the relations between Oyster Bay and Washington were in a very critical state, but nobeSy has suppos- ed that they were so desperate as yesterdays news would indicate. It seems that Col Roosevelt is holding President Wilson personally respon- slble" for everything that he says or does.-N. Y. World
 Roosevelt always reminds us of the sidewalk loafer who stands around at a lire and tells other loafers what the Ifiremen ought to have done.
 It looks as if the Democratic party were practically rid of William Jen- nngs Bryan. Some day, after it has been sufficiently punished for it's sins. the Republican Party may be emanci- pated from Theodore Roosevelt. Demagogues cannot endure forever.
 If you want to see pretty political race keep your eye on those two thoroughbreds-Mit Sims and Sid Os- born.
 Speaking of elections, that school bond election on Saturday last was no tame affair.
 We still have hopes that city council will be elected in Clifton that will do something besides audit de- mands and pay salaries. | A great many people in Arizona read Golfers Magazine last week who never saw it before. Look on page 21.
 A wager was made in Clifton this week that out of every hundred votes cast in the democratic primary in this county Hon. Geo. A. Olney. can d1date for Governor, would receive 60.
 Real friends of organized labor will discover sooner or later that their cause is weakened by the effort to use. 1t for political machine. Hon. George Olney is in the north ern counties this week. The political forecast is that Yavapai county will be for Olney for Governor by not less than a thousand votes. AS usual most of the political inter- est centers around the Sheriffs race. There's reason. $500. .OO per.
 From a taxpayers standpoint the most important political office is the Legislator.
 Our old friend Harry Jennings, of Bisbee, is a candidate for Mine In- spector. Erin go Bragh!
 It is said: That George Montgom- cry may be a candidate in the demo- cratic primaries for the office of Sheriff.
 We know some people who would almost be willing to give up right eye in order to defeat Buck Await and w. w. Dutton for Supervisors in the approaching primaries. The big gest obstacle in the way is the confi- dence the taxpayers have in these two members.
 Judging from the returns in the Democratic primaries the Union Lea que endorsement is something to be avoided.
 We should worry! Sir Galahad II is looking after us.
 Hooray! Hooray! Galahad, Old Boy. has consented to protect human liber- ties and self government for two years more.
 We suppose if two deputy sheriff's; were in the act of catching a burglar they would promptly let him go if he said: This is alright
 The officers of the Moose lodge in dignantly deny that the auto return ing from Lordsburg in the wee sma' hours Thursday morning contained any wines, liquors, or cigars for that fraternal organization.
 It's comforting to see the Bull Moosers and Old Liners casting Goo Goo Eyes at each other.
 Tom Campbell wants to run for Governor against Sir Galahad II.
 John Bradberry, like Brer Rabbit, is laying low and saying nothing.
 After twenty years Nebraska has gently but firmly placed w. J. B. in the political discard.
 great crisis is approaching in Ari- zona but fear not. Galahad is in full armor.
 An intelligent, public spirited wo- man on the Town Council is probably what this Town needs.
 It is generally conceded that Pap" Anderson will lead the Republican ticket for Sheriff this fall.
