The LeaisIatiVe Ticket


 The Rcpublcan's preference of candidates for the legislature from this county is not because they be- onr Co any particular party It prefers them because it believes them to be better qualified by tempera- lncnt and training than other candidates. It is moved also by geographical considerations It favors SO far as possible a distribution of representation throughout the county
 Two years ago The Republican urged the cleo ticu of MT H. B. Wilkinson the senate of the Third legislature It now points to the record he made i1cre and asks the voters of the county to return him to the Fourth legislature, where as a business man and a lawyer he may continue the work he be- gan the third MT. Wilkinson has long been known for the oarnestness and thoroughness with which he nursues what he undertakes and it is part of his record that has always pursued what best for Inc moral and material interests of his community.
 Our other candidate for the senate is Mir. c. c. Green. who was one of a very small minority in the house of the Third legislature But he ac member and in spite of the handicap of numbers hc was an effective one. His voice and his vote the right side of practically every question that arose. Nr. Green was representative of the farm ing interests which in this county closely al lied with the business interests, deserves VIC believe will. receive the support of both.
 For the same reasons that we are supporting Mir. Green we arc advocating the reelection of Mrs. Pau
 
 record in both the regular extraordinary sessions or tho Third legislature Mrs ONeiI pursued cou- -arcous. conservative and useful throughout both sessions. Mrs O'Nel is the only representative ol tho if this county and believe that they win accord her a most natterng support
 Another of the candidates supported by The Re- publican is Mir C. W. Barrows MT. Barrows has had extensive experience in the legislature of Kan sas IIe of the younger soldiers of the Civil war. He is a successful business man, a pleasing and wcl-informed speaker. a of sound judgment, and is in every way fitted for legislative duties.
 Tu W. W. Dobson another of The Republicans candidates for tho legislature are combined the ex- pcrience and qualities of a successful farmer and "a business man, though the time is coming if it is not already here when there will be really no dis tinction between the MT. Dobson is one of the best known residents of the south side. He was in- duced two years ago to become a candidate and he within sixteen votes of election against an over whoiming normal democratic majority. We believe that the people have far regretted that there were no more of MT Dobsons type in the 1egis- ature that they will avail themselves of the oppor- tunhy to secure him now.
 Another candidate whom we cheerfully support is " J. Galbraith, attorney of Glendale Mir Gal braih Is a clean and energetic of whom we have had personal knowledge for several years. He was r NiN LlNe HSuuClor m ldW m the university Of Arizona and he held in the highest esteem by both the faculty and the student body.
 Of Alr. C W Llllywhite, another legislative can dlate. it is said by citizens of Mesa regardless of party, that he is of the highest character. He s farmer; he has the respect of all his neighbors We know Of no higher recommendation for g. candi- date fer the legislature than statement that he has the confidence of those who know him best
 It is hardly necessary to speak of Judge J. C. Philips another candidate. Judge Phillips is a busy man with large legal practice, so that any time he would devote to the work of the legislature would be Just that much of sacrifice his part As probate judge for several terms and superior judge of this county, his name became familiar and respected in every home. His ability is recognized by all There Is no in the county in whose integrity there is greater public confidence.
 Tins is the legislative ticket supported by The Republican and these the reasons for it's support We believe that if this ticket is elected Maricopa county will have the best strongest delegation it has ever sent to the legislature. We think that while some of the candidates are not supporting are wholly unfit, there is at least one whom we would radly support and are deterred only by geographical reasons from doing so. In this connection we are hopeful that under the legislative distrctine nIan which will be submitted to the people next Tuesday there will hereafter exist geographical problems in legislative tickets. each district selecting from within itsef a candidate whom it knows to be competent
