another point in his favor, for their are many school laws needing atten- tion and many such laws will directly affect Coconino county. Our Normal school needs his assistance in helping along the school, growing so fast that it's needs are neglected by the general run of legislators of the other parts of the state. The big Normal school could count on him for enthusiastic intelligent service in an endeavor to secure appropriations commensurate with its needs, for he has been one of its most active supporters during the ten years he has made this county his home.
 His interests are the direct inter- ests of Coconino county and the state of Arizona; he desires an economical administration in the direct interest of the whole people with laws that govern and do not muddle and con- flict.
 He asks for your vote on that basis next Tuesday.

He has been &C., cused of a,eing radical with extreme views, buS without reason, for he thoroughly believes in the rule of the majority of the people regardless of what his individual opinion may chance to be on the subject and pro poses to give his sincere efforts to the people, il elected to the office of state represen tative.
 There is no question as to the quail fications for the place.

Jerry W. Lee for County Recorder

Jerry W. Lee, candidate for the office of county recorder is a clean, competant, deserving young man, whose several years experience in the banking business will stand him in good stead. He is accommodating, has pleasant personality and has good moral record behind him to back up his promises of efficient service to the people. His friends insist that he will come to the Flagstaff city line with a record majority and his friends as well as the people in general promise here to assist him in putting an end to the present autocratic rule of that office. Jerry has made friends on all sides since starting out on his cam paign; he is married man, having married Miss Irene Johnson, daughter of Jos. Johnson, of Williams, both of whom are we'll known and have many friends in Flagstaff. If merit wins, Jerry will be on the job.

For Supervisors

Fred Caring has the business abili- ty that should go with the office that handles the affairs and money of the people of the county. He believes that the interests of the people of the county should have the same super vision as the affairs of a private in- dividual. His success in his own busi- ness affairs is good indication of the kind of efficiency he would bring to that office. He is one of the sturdy kind of men who do not believe in "wobbling" any place along the line, but in giving the people what they pay for, and in seeing that those paid for it deliver the goods honestly.
 R. A. Cameron, the west end can didate, is especially we'll equipped for the office of supervisor, as he was connected with the assessors office and held the office of assessor for a number of years, an office that brought him closer in touch with the actual business affairs of the county than most others. He has natural ability along the lines in which he could serve the people of the county best, and is 8 man whose honesty and in- tegrity has never been questioned. He is popular all over the county and his friends are certain of his cleo ton.

N. G. Layton for Justice of the Peace

N. G. Layton for Justice of the Peace
 The office of justice of the peace has become one of the important off, CTS in this judicial district and one that requires the ability of one who is thoroughly competent to handle it, in the interest of the people. The republicans have selected Judge N. G. Layton, one of the early day settlers of this section of Arizona, and man who has held offices of judicial na- ture which thoroughly fit him for the place; he has no enemies to punish and no friends to favor if he is elect ed to that office. The people could not place their trust in safer man, or one who could be better trusted to help them untangle their legal affairs in his court. Do not overlook him on the precinct ticket.

John O. Harrington for Sheriff


 There are few old timers in this section of Arizona who are not ac- quainted with John o. Harrington, the republican candidate for sheriff. He is of the common people, believes in justice to all classes and kinds, rather than mere law, and has dealt out justice along that line as Justice of the Peace in Flagstaff for a number of years to the satisfaction of the people. He has been broad-minded in his application of the law and be- heves that his past record is good enough to stand on in the present political contest for the office of sher- if. It is conceded that he would make a fearless officer and one who would enforce the law until the peo- pie repealed it, if it didn't suit the people.

Participation Of the federal govern.

control Of tuberculosis is urged by a

lay
The national association proposes
that by act of congress a special di-
vision of tuberculosis be established
in the United States public health
service with an adequate appropria-
ton. This division should be manned
by experts and shoulds study the tub
erculosis problem from every point
Of view and should, so far as possible
set up standards for the treatment
and prevention of the disease
throughout the country. One of the
problems which it is proposed to
study first would be that of the in
digent migratory consumptive. par
ticularly in the health, resorts Of vari-
GUS parts Of the United States. such
as California, New Mexico, Colorado
and Texas. Another problem which
it is proposed should be, studied is
that relating to the causes Of tuber-

gresham Kent Of California in the
house and by Senator Norris of Ne

some Of the things which the nation

Prisoners Who Are Serving Sentence
in County Jail Don't Like tho
Idea Of Working on
County Roads.
ONLY 10 ON ROLL CALL
One Official Finds That They Are
Some Use In Helping In
the Spring Clean
Up. 49,

Since the announcement made in
The Gate City last week that the
supervisors were considering using
the prisoners in the county Jail ia
help repair the river road which was
badly damaged by landslides, there
has been disposition on the part of
the inmates Of the Jail to count up
the remaining day of their terms to
see if they will be released before the
frost is out of the ground
Incidentally there seem to be few
new arrivals. Whether this is due to
the weather or to the effect of the
announcement, it is not quite clear.
Anyway the fact remains that there
are only thirteen in the county Jail,
who are serving short sentences. One
of the supervisors who was in Keo-
kuk yesterday said that at last re-
ports there were between fifty and
sixty tramps in the county Jail at
Fort Madison. " a.
The plan of working these prison
ers on a county road seems to dimin-
ish their eagerness to board with the
sheriff and his deputies. It has been
suggested that if the city were to in
stall wood pile or stone pile, and
make the tramps who come here to
sleep, work an nour or so for their
bed and board there might be fewer
applications for cots. A patrol wagon
load of buns was started north this
morning. 49,.
"And yet" ono of the county off,
Gals said today, I'VE will always have
the poor with us, and If we dian't
have the tramps we wouldn't have
anybody to help clean up in the
springtime."
