BISBEE CANDIDATE
 GIVES HIS POLICY
 ON COMING ELECTION
Jim M'Donald, in Open Letter,
 Tells Voters What His Ob-
 jects Will be in Case He Is
 Nominated for Sheriff.

Outlining his policies and beliefs, in the matter of his candidacy for the Democratic nomination of sheriff in Cochise county. J. F. Mcdonald has sent the following letter to the Re, view:
 Bisbee, Ariz., August IT, 1916. Editor the Review,
 Dear Sir
 As to my qualifications to fill the office of sheriff of Cochise county I respectfully submit the following:
 Experience.
 Almost the whole of the thirty-six years of my life have been spent on the border. having come to Arizona in my mothers arms in 1883. l have a wide circle of acquaintances through out the Southwest, and know the country, the people and their ways perfectly. As to the officials of Son ora, I fail to see any connection be- tween them and the enforcement of law in Arizona. Our brethren across the line have problems of their own to take care of, and they have my best wishes for a speedy solution of their troubles. l believe that some measure of credit is due the military authori- ties for the freedom from bandit raids in this section, and l feel with the great number of troops now On the border, the government of the United States will be able to cope with -Ee situation. The question is lot how long a man has been at job, but how well he can do it. Alexander had conquered the world at thirty-threc. Caesar was praetor at thirty-four and Napoleon was first counsel at thirty experience is a good thing, but new blood has its advantages.
 Efficiency.
 Since my appointment as deputy United States marshal for this dis trict, Marshal Dillon has had no oc- casion to spend any of his time in my district. You are referred to the marshal as to my competency as an officer
 Economy.
 dln MllllhS tHdt my expenses TOT services on official business be com. pared with those of any other officer in the state.
 Laws.
 No one that 1 know of seriously advocates laws that cannot be en- forced. We have sufficiency of laws now. Enforcement is my motto Furthermore, the office of sheriff does not carry with it any legislative .. judicial functions.
 This is my application for the job. and l think that I can make good. If do not I shall not ask for a seCond term. Moreover, l will state at the beginning that under no circumstances will l be a candidate for a third term.
 J. F. MCDONALD.
