Both the citizens and the peoples' parties held conventions yesterday af ternoon for' the purpose o fplacing in the field a ticket for the municipal of fices and each prepared platforms ex pressing' the sentiment of the respec tive parties. No comment on the two tickets or the platforms are necessary and both are herewith presented: Citizens' Party. Council J. A. Dines. T. J. Goodwin, J. T. Birchett, G. M. Frizzell., A. W. Cosner. - Clerk L. E.Pafford. Marshal Samuel Brown. Platform We. the delegates of the citizens' party of Tempe, in convention assembled, do 'adopt the following pre ambles and platform of principles. We rejoice with the citizens of Tempe in the mutual nride we hold in her edu cational institution.", her efficient mu nicipal water system , her splendid streets, her sound financial basis and , the general high standing of her citi I zenship. We declare our firm and 1 abiding conviction in the principle ' that all forms ot government, national. state and municipal should always be administered for the benefit of all, and with special privileges to none. W'e pledge the citizens' party of Tempe to work unceasingly for honest impar- ; tial and economical administration of i all municipal affairs. We .recommend as follows: First, that all streets now graded and graveled be maintained in the present fine condition, and that the grading and graveling be extended to all other streets as rapidly as the finances of the town will warrant. Second, that all streets and alleys be at all times kept clean of weeds, brush and rubbish of every kind. Third, that the water mains be extended to all streets of the town as rapidly as th demand of the residents require ani. the finaances of the system will per mit. Fourth, that the incoming com mon council investigate and determin. upon the propriety of installing a com plete municipal sewer system for Tempe. We believe the present mu nicipal officers have been economical in the administration of the affairs of the town. We demand that all taxable property, within the corporate limits of empe be equitably assessed for municipal taxes, and to that end we recommend that the assessor shall hereafter make actual assessments of all property as required my" law, and that the practice now in vogue of mak ing up the tax roll from the tax roll of the preceding year be discontinued, and we further demajid the prompt passage and strict enforcement of such necessary ordinances, by the common council of Tempe as will effectually close all saloons and prohibit the sale or giving away of Intoxicating liquors in Tempe on Sunday. Peoples' Party. For Town Council J. A. Dtn-s, Frank Fogal, M. E. Curry, Wm. Stelz reid, Sam Lukin. For City Marshal Samuel Brown. For Town Clerk C. W. Miller. Platform The peoples' party in con vention assembled does hereby re solve: That it stands for a good, clean, honest, efficient and energetic administration of the nffairs of the city, conducted along business lines, conferring equal rights upon all and granting sitecial privileges to none. Thai its financial policy which has J kept the town on a cash basis, kept the interest on its bonds paid prompt ly: given iis people good, clean, well sprinkled, graveled and well-cared for streets, and permitted the building up of a sinking fund amounting to $6,500 that is now loaned out. bearing inter est, and secured by first mortgage on income bearing real estate, will be maintained and strengthened, with a view of promptly meeting our bonded indebtedness for the waterworks as such bonds mature. That we endorse with unstinted praise the record made by the present city officials who were elected by the peoples' party at the last regular city election, and point with especial pride to the fact that during the pa-st year every dollar of taxes levied against the real and per sonal property in the town was collect ed and turned into the city treasury, and that not a penny of such taxes ever became delinquent, showing an efficiency of official service probably without a parallel in the I'nlted States.

The Gobble recital at the normal au ditorium tomorrow evening gives pro mise of being an event of much im portance' from a musical standpoint. Mrs. Gobble and the others of the party returned Friday evening from the Grand Canyon where they had been on a sight-seeing tour. While away recitals were given in both Williams and Prescott and both were grand successes. The Journal-Miner of Prescott under date of May 1st has the following to say regarding the recital there. A voice of rare sympathy and sweet ness, a winning personality, exquisite taste in the selection o? her program, and a dream of an acompunist. gave a charm to Mrs. Amalia Schmidt-Gobble's recital under the auspices of the literary section of the Monday Club last evening which every music lover of the large audience present will re member for man.v a dav to come. As a charming young woman from Boston said with far away dreamy eyes after Dverak's "Als die Alte Mutter" (Songs My Mother Taught Me): "It makes one forget this is the 'wild wooly west' and think she's back in Boston." Every number was a sein and for variety the program was beyond criti cism. Schubert's "Fnihlings Glabe" (Faith in Sprin), was equisitely done and the audience would not be denied a repetition Reichifrdt's "Hoffnung" (When the Roses Bloom) aroused gen uine enthusiasm and like "Ma Curly Headed Baby" had to be repeated. Donald's "The Summertime Cycle," "Daybreak." Morning." "Evening." "Xlght." closed the delightful even ing. ' Surely the literary section of the Monday Club is to be congratulated on securing such artists as Mrs. Gobble and her da'nt;- cousin. Miss Laura C. Schmidt, an accompanist of rare gift, for accompanying is a gift which all the training in the world cannot duplicate. Should the artists ever re turn to Prescott hey are assure 1 in ad vance of genuine support and appreciation. MESA Wm. P. Crump Hay and Giain Co. sells Arizona Oranges, $2.50.

Mesa Chamber of Commerce Jumps Clear Out of the Hole at One Bound. There Was no special jollification, no burning of mortgages at the meeting of the board of directors of the Mesa chamber of commerce .Tuesday even ing, yet there was considerable pure, unadulterated1 satisfaction "when the debts of the organization were paid off and a bran new leaf turned over with a mighty resolve never to get the book In such shape again. The sentiment of the directors was for n larger Mesa, a wider and more systematic advertising campaign, and a fur.d with which to meet all current expenses. Running a chamber of commerce is one of the easiest things in the world to do on account of the numerous sug gestions ready made and cut-to-fit which are continually being given by kind hearted people who know just what is needed for the town. However there is a kind of suggestion which the directors are after: There has been a committee appointed with power to act whose duty it will be to call upon the ranchers and all those who feel that they have not contributed liberally enough to determine the sentiment of the Mesa vicinity in regard to the money question. The chamber of com merce needs the money. Generally speaking directors of any concern are supposed to sit with their feet propped ui on the table at an angle of 87 degrees and smoke La Sub Rosa cigars while the bookkeepers are compelled to work overtime writing checks to keep up with the dividends as fast as thev are declared, but such is not a'wav the case with directors of chambers of commerce. To be spe cific, the sinking fund handled by the directors of the Mesa chamber of com merce has never dangerously approach ed the high water mark. J. L. Waring, who is president of the Mesa City Bank, and also treasurer of the chamber of commerce, is a booster for Mesa at all times and under all conditions. He is the collecting agent for the institution and a considerable amount of the success of the organiza tion is due to his untiring efforts. He carried the flag at the head of the committee which made such a splend id record last week in collecting up back dues. Waring is recognized as a man wbo generally gets there with both feet. He is teaching his children to tiocist for Mesa that they may rise up and call him a man who knew whereof ht spoke. Another one of the live members of the chamber of commerce is George S. Irwin, editor of the Free Press. He has said more good commendable things about Mesa through his paper than any man alive. When the ther mometer goes to 117 he comes out with a half column article stating ( it requires such a temperature in order to develop fruit to that perfection which can be obtained at no other point in the world. If an artic le well written concerning the Mesa section where the names of enthusiastic men were used it would be a misprint to leave out the name of Dr. A. J. Chandler, the most optimis tic man that ever crossed the Salt river. He argues, contends, debates, declares and swears that Mesa is the finest, section in the world. He has talked it so much that he is sure of it. While the chamber of commerce Is made up of eleven men, all of them i enthusiastic over the future of thefal- lf y, 'et if you would see men satur ! ated. soaked, polluted, with Mesa, her merits, resources, and future call on any one of the three men above re ferred to. The lord didn't waste any mud when he made such men. A chamber of commerce or a board of trade may mean considerable or it may not mean anything so far as town building goes. As a general thing di rectors of such organizations are se lected from among men who have made a success of their own business; for it has rome to be considered that a man who can manage his own af fairs successfully stands a better show of building a town than one who is run down at the heel and gone to seed generally. Mesa is fortunate in having a live chamber of commerce as far as the directors are concerned. Whiie Mesa is not as large as Kalamazoo, Talla hassee or Timbucto. yet it is fn the growing column and stands for pprog ress something over four hundred days in the year. The directors are not re sponsible for Mesa producing canta loupes which made Arizona famous, the chamber of commerce directors are not responsible for the ernomous pro fit made in this section everv year from Bermuda onions, the chamber of commerce is not responsible for the record breaking alfalfa hay produc tions, yet the chamber of commerce is responsible for bringing suc h facts to other people throughout the east and giving them a chance to learn by ac tual experience the merits of the Salt river valley. A chamber of commerce, or a like organization is just as essen tial to a growing town as a tongue is to a wagon while in motion. A wagon has no particular need for a tongue when it stands still so also has a dead town r.o reed for a chamber of com merce or a board of trade or a com mercial club. TIMM ADVERTISEMENT.

The program was rendered on the porch, the audience being seated on chairs and benches on the lawn. The porch was tastefully decorated with cut flowers and a large American flag was draped above the doors, forming a pretty background. The little tots rendered each number most creditably and brought forth much applause. The addresses and speeches selected were pretty and ap propriate. The hearers were particu larly delighted with their little pongs. After the exercises closed, the guests were invited to inspect the work done by the school during the year, which showed ui splendidly and was a de cided credit to both the teachers and pupils. EPISCOPAL SERVICES. Rev. J. W. At wood of Phoenix ill held services this evening here at the home of Mrs. John W. Hagerlund. All are-cordially invited to attend these services. JEWELRY STORE FOR MESA. Mesa lias long felt the want of an up-to-date jewelry store, and the news that it is to have one in the near fu ture will be well received. G. L. Young of Wickenburg was in town durirs the week and made the preliminary arrangements to estab lish a store of this nature in the Free Press. Building. Mr. Young is fully ex perienced in this line of work. His family will move from Wickenburg to Mesa shortly. ELECTION DAY. Much Interest Manifested in the Wet and Dry Tickets Passed Off Quietly. While both parties worked hard all day at the polls for their respective tickets and a heavy vote was cast, ther were no disturbances of anv kind. It became evident early in the day that much interest wolild be manifest ed; all available automobiles and car riages having been secured several days previous even to the extent of hiring autos from other districts. At noon a little less than half of the to tal number registered had voted. The day was windy, being interspersed with several dust storms. This how ever had no effect on the ardor of the workers of either side, nor did it tend to lessen to any degree .the possible number of votes. The interest taken in the election in town was a fair estimate of that shown in the surrounding districts, many of the voters coming great distances to cast their vote. The officers of elction at the polls In the town hal! were as follows: In spector. W. J. Le Baron; judges. Dan Klineman and J. A. Crouch: election clerks. John Connely and Artimus Mil ieu; polling clerks, Charles F. Jones, James Dale v. J. D. Loper. James Mil ler, L. V. Guthrie, M. C Phelps. O. S. Stapley. B. L. March and J. T. Lesur er; Marshal.

'After drinking coffee for breakfast 1 always felt languid and dull, having no ambition to get to my morning du ties. Then in about an hour or so a weak, nervous derangement of the heart and stomach would come over me with such force I would frequently have to lie down. "At other times I had severe head aches: stomach finally became affect ed and digestion so Impaired that I had serious chronic dyspepsia and con stipation. A lady, for many years state president of the W. C. T. U., told me she had been greatly benefited by quitting coffee and using Postum Food Coffee; she was troubled for years with asthma. She said It was no cross to quit coffee when she found she could have as delicious an article as Postum. "Another lady, who had been trou bled with chronic dyspepsia for years, found immediate relief on ceasing cof fee and beginning Postum twice a day. She was wholly cured. Still another friend told me that Postum Food Cof fee whs a Godsend to her, her heart trouble having been relieved after leaving off coffee and taking on Pos tum. "So many such cases came to my notice that I concluded coffee was the cause of my trouble and I quit and took up Postum. I am more than pleased to say that my days of trouble have disappeared.
