GEO. HARRINGTON FIR
 COUNTY SUPERVISOR

A man who can take an insignifi- cant electric light plant and in few years by sheer executive ability and engineering skill convert it in- to the best electric light plant in the state has some class as a busi- ness man, don't you think? That is what Geo. T. Harrington of Flagstaff did for Flagstaff electric light plant. When he took hold of it as Manager fifteen years ago it lacked nearly everything that an efficient electric light plant should have. To-day it is conceded to be the most up-to-date and efficient electric light plant for its capacity in the state of Arizona. Geo. T. Harrington is entitled to the whole credit for the improvement iii the Flagstaff light plant. The Flag staff Electric Light Go. put their business entirely into bis hands and he has made good with it..
 And now Geo. T. Harrington, capable business man and skillful engineer, is candidate for the re- publican nomination for County Supervisor. Can you think of man better qualified to discharge the duties of this important office? By reason of his professional know ledge he is considered by Flagstaff builders authority on both work and material and when in doubt they consult him. As purchasing agent for his company he knows how to invest money in materials and service to good advantage. Coconino county needs such man.
 George T. Harrington is a good roads booster but at the same time he is strong for the economical in- vestment of public funds. He may be trusted to favor the construction and improvement of public high ways as fast as the taxpayers are able to meet the expense. Honest, and fair in all his deal ings, his candidacy must appeal strongly to the voters of Coconlno count 0.

ED HUNTER FUR
 COUNTY SUPERVISOR
A Practical Farmer Who Has A Practical Solution For County Problems

Why not a practical farmer for Supervisor? If he has made a success on the farm by practical farm methods, is it not fair pre- sumption that he would appl y practical farm methods to the con- duct of the public bushes?
 Ed Hunter of Williams has demonstrated that successful agri- culture is possible in Coconino county. Many have doubted it and many doubt it yet. Go talk with Ed Hunter and he will give you an insight into the sort of farming that will enable a farmer to make good in Coconino county. It is such men as Ed Hunter who develop a country and put the basic industry, farming, on a sound founda ion.
 Ed Hunter believes in alfalfa possibilities for northern Arizona. He is an alfalfa enthusiast. He not only talks alfalfa but he raises It. If others will do likewise, the Arizona cattle men and sheep men will have less difficulty in getting their stock thru the winter.
 Ed Hunter will talk county economics to you, too, and he IS as sound on economics as on farm ing, and that's what makes it look like sensible thing to do to vote for him at the primaries next Tues day. He is hard headed when it comes to finance and he will be very apt to block any game which looks crooked. And he will insist on a full days work for a days pay and full measure for the price the people pay.
 Look up Ed Hunters name on the democratic ballot and put your cross after 1t. edv.
