Flagstaff The old timers who put over the Grand
Canyon railroad were entitled to the best that
Williams could give them They are broke, unless
they made stake since that time. Who cares? !?
Not soul. They merely get the old time famous
''horse laugh for the good they tried to do from
the bunch who now seem to claim all the glory for
what the old timers did.
Find out, men and women, just what this row is
all about.
Don't vote until you know what YOU. are voting
about and Why Don't take The Coconino Suns
word for it, because we merely want you to play
your own game. @
1t will not be fair for you to kick about your
taxes and the way things are done after the bal
loting is over, when you are willing to vote your
self in for the worst of it.
The government isn't lying to you.
The Sun isn't attempting to misead YOU
The Suns fight is for Coconino county at large.
The Suns fight is not political one. We would
like to have the people win
The implication that Congressman Hayden, a
democrat, is willing to be party to deal in
which the government lis attempting to steal Co
conno countys brthright' is more rot. His eff
forts were honestly in the interest of the tax
payers of the county and for the development
of the county.
1t is absurd to think the people of this county
would turn down the offer made by the govern
ment by vote OF otherwise.

SOME FINANCIER!

A neighber of mine dropped in at
meal time recently TO tell me of St.
Louis banker friend who met in self
serve restaurant one of his own en-
ployes. AS the banker and his clerk
sat niunching their simple rations, the
employee happened to look at his
watch.
Handsome watch, that" remarked
the banker
"Yes,' replied the. clerk, "it is nice
watch. = Fuff1y thing about it, too
and he went on to tell how he hap
pened to buy the watch. 1t seems that
he was. short of money at a roadhouse
one night and was obliged to cash a
check for $40, though he chanced at
that moment to have no funds to his
credit. The next morning he tried to
borrow money to deposit before the
check sholld come in, but was unable
to raise more than SIS. While wonder
ing what to do, he happened to see
the sign of an installment jewelry
place.. There he bought $75 watch
on down payment of $5-after prov
ing that he had a good business con-
nection-and a few minutes later he
pawned the watch for $40, which he
promptly deposited against the check
of the night before.
IT should Immediately have dis
charged the fellow" the banker said,
in telling. the clerks story. He was
too slick a man to have around a
bank. But | didn't and now-welf,
sure enough, last week he got away
with $4,000.

STRAWBERRIES BEHAVE

Two soldiers in negro regiment
were boasting about their company
buglers. "G'long wit you, boy" said
one, "you amt got no booglers. We
is got the boogler, and when at boy
wraps his lip around that horn and
blows pay-call it sounds jes' like de
Boston Symphony band playin' The
Rosary"
"Yeh, hearn you," replied the
other. "Talk up, talk up. Yo' is wad-
in deep into trouble"
"An' when he souds at tattoo the
Angle Gabriel hissef is lendin' a
ear, boy"
"Well, if yo likes musk they is all
right, but if you Is yearnin' fo' food,
yo' want a boogler with a hypnotic

A FIFTH TERM GOVERNOR

One of the arguments used most effectively
against the candidacy of Gov. Geo. W. T. Hunt
for denomination is the fact that he has already
had four terms of office 1t is urged upon that
it is undemocratic to have such a long succession
in office that it tends toward autocracy; that 1t
tends toward a perpetuation of political heritage.
These arguments are well in print. But the fault
does not lie with the particular candidate. tie is
sincerely convinced that even though he has had
four terms that it is for the best interests Of the
state that he has fifth term. Some may doubt
his sincerity, but the question OF his sincerity is
not one of the political issues.
We are adverse to having too long succession
in office and so are many others of US, but on
close investigation we find that those who are
opposed to this long succession have done nothing
nor will they ever do anything toward avoiding
such a condition in our political life.
1t is in the power Of those who object to long
continued office holding to change that condition
IT means nothing more than an amendment to our
constitution placing the term of office of COVER
nor or any other elective office for definite per-
iod of years. without eligibility to reelection
Arizona Cattleman and Farmer.
With a machine that is invincibe in primary
election, the people would have fat chance to
change the constitution by limiting the privileges
of Uncle George.
There is another and shorter method and we
fear it will be invoked. The people may refrain
from voting for men who seek more than two
Terms III OlllCc EA1OCA PCO-
pe make final decsion.-Phoenix Messenger.
Editor Mills of the Messenger, who has always
been considered a loyal democrat, is right in his
contention The state has indeed come to pretty
pass politically if it is necessary to change the
constitution of the state in order to get rid of a.
governor It's job the people can and will do at
the polls this fall. If they don't, the people may
lust as well give Governor Hunt patent to the
place and move out. And, entrenched with the
feed trough democrats all up feeding fat, Gover-
nor Hunt, if elected governor again this fall will
be the democratic nominee for u. S. senator. The
patronage under his administration is too great
for any other member of the democratic party to-
overcome.
