We Told You So Six- weeks' ago it man named Neott opened ;i grocery store on Comanche street, and when we casually dropped in and mentioned the fact that the Kicker was the best advertising adver-tising medium iu the west, he didn't enthuse. We knew there was something wrong about him and wo sent his description de-scription to the sixty-four sheriffs and chiefs of police who "are constantly in communication with us.

Not His Fault A number of our townspeople have expressed the hope that wo would pitch into Dr. Staghorn, the popular druggist, for killing old man Slew by putting up arsenic for quinine qui-nine iu a prescription. Wo shall do nothing of the sort. Tim doctor has not only increased his advertising one-half this week, but has subscribed for five copies of the Kicker to send away. While this, of course, does not influence us iu the least, wo know from personal observation ob-servation that tho doctor is a very busy man, and that the room in his store is limited.

Is it any wonder that tho people of Arizona can't wait for tho Kicker to be issued each week, aud that dozens of them roost on our doorstep all night Wednesday night to get copies the first thiug Thursday morning?
