Some of our democratic friends
seem much concerned that Judge
Kibbey did not talk about him
self and his candidacy when he
spoke to a Winslow audience last
Friday night. The reason is SIM
pie enough. He was governor
of Arizona for several years in
territorial days. and later was a
member of the supreme court,
and the record he left behind has
never been assailed or even criti-
cized by the most rabid demo-
crat. His record of service
and work performed for the
benefit of Arizona speak louder
and more eloquently for him
than mere words any man could
utter in his behalf. Mr.. Kibbey
is a man of action, and not of
words, and as Arizona's next u.
S. senator he will pursue the
same policy.

tegrity. The county attorney is
the legal representative of the
taxpayers, and it is his sworn
duty to protect their interests,
and give legal advice to county
officials along those lines. We
are sorry to say that during the
past two years the present dem
ocratic incumbent has taken a
different view of his official du-
ties, and considered himself the
legal adviser Of the county Off
GERS only, and advised them how
they could put over jobs on the
unsuspecting taxpayers. 1t is
onr opinion that the people are
tired of that kind of a county at
torney, and will be glad of the
chance to vote for Mr.. Conwell
and a change in tactics.

One of the extravagances of
our present county government
is the hiring of a deputy county
assessor at S75 a month to do the
work for which the assessor
draws the regular salary. Mr..
Gardner is admittedly incompe-
tent to discharge the duties, and
the supervisors, to protect the
interest of the county, had to
employ deputy. Mr.. Fred Ran
dali, of St. Joe, the republican
nominee, is well-equipped meh-
tally and temperamentally to
handle all the complex duties of
the office without any extra as
sistance, and his election will in
sure a saving of nearly $1,000 a
year to the taxpayers. This is
an item worth considering.

During the Roosevelt admins
tration a lady missionary was
captured by gang of bandits in
a Roumanian province, and car
ried into the mountain fastness
for a ransom. A movement was
started to raise the ransom, but
Mr.. Roosevelt firmly notified the
Roumanian government it would
be held to strict accountability if
the lady was not delivered to the
American consul unharmed. No
watchful waiting for Roosevelt;
he demanded action and got it.
The lady was restored to her
friends unharmed. From Mexi-
co came the call that Mexican
bandits were ravishing the Sis
ters of Mercy and the nuns, de-
secs ating the churches by turn
ing them into leud dancehalls, and
either killing or banishing the
priestly missionaries; and in the
Mormon colonies the men were
killed and their wives and daugh-
ters met a worse fate at the
hands of the Villa bandits. Did
Wilson notify Mexico with firm
ness and determination that they
would be held to strict accounta-
bility if harm came to these peo-
Pile? No. He has a watchful

might mean war, but there are
some things worse than war,
and the ravishing of pure, help
less women is one of them, and
be it said to our shame and dis
grace that such things have
been permitted almost under the
shadow of the waving folds of
the Stars and Stripes during the
Wilson administration. Has the
"watchful waiting" DESTROYED
American chivalry? Has valiant
knighthood succumbed to the in
sidious too proud to fight. -

Let us all divest our minds of
partisan politics, and just for a
few minutes consider a PROPOSE
tion from a strictly business view
point. Werefer to the $42, 600 re-
Gently paid into the county treas
ury as the proceeds from the sale
of the recent school bond issue
of Winslow. On these bonds
our citizens are paying 6 per cent
from the date of issue. At least
$50, 900 of the money will not be
used until next spring, as only
the foundations of the building
will be constructed this winter.
If County Treasurer Richards
observed the intent of the law
and put the money out for six
months at 5 per cent it would
earn $3.50, which should be add
ed to the principle. Instead of
that Mr.. Richards will deposit it
in an open account at 2 per cent
and realize $500. The $3.50 is
the bankers profit for being a
good fellow. But the worst is
yet to come. Even the little
stingy $500 does not come to the
Winslow schools, but it is grab
bed by the supervisors for the
general fund of the county. AS
a fair sample of the present bus
mess methods of the county, are
you in favor of continuing the
same old crowd in control? Does
it look like sound conservative
business to you. Mr.. Richards
is your county treasurer, and he
is asking you to re-elect him to
the job for another term, so the
same policy can be pursued.
