Of one Of its meetings. The Board, with
out an exception, ismuch incensed by the
course the Finance Committee has taken,
and talked yesterday without reserve.
Messrs. Egerter and Hobbs were the chief
spokesmen, while President Bell ao-
quiesed in all they said.
"In the first place." said q member,
'the ordinance prepared by the Finance
Committee ia the grossest kind OF an In
suit TO the Board, and one that We pro-
pose to resent very strongly. We do not
think that the ordinance will pass with
any such provisions in 1t Is the Finance
Committee has tackled on that portion in
relation to the Board OF Public Works.
In case It should pass, we will do one OF
three ~things-resign in q bodyi OF do %
we please, exhibiting Rs much contrart-
nees as the former Board; or do nothing
at all.
"The act Of the Legislature creating
this Board says that 1t shall supervise the
execution Of all contracts and the dis
bursemsnt OF all moneys for, or upon the
sewers, streets and alleys. The ~restrain-
ing ordinance says that this Board has the
power 10 make contracts under our rules
and regulations for the expenditures with
in the year, without control by Council
as the ordinance reads, Of amounts not to
exceed in the aggregate the total amount
designated by the annual appropriation
for the department,
"In the lace OF all this, the committee
does what 1t has no earthly business 10 do.
Why did 1t not specify how the money Of
the gas works should pc spent, or that oi
the water works? II might have done
80 with just as much propriety. But no
this Board was singled out and for some
unknown and unexplained reason, VIZ

partments did; 1t was similar to the one
put in laat year, but 1t did not suit the

BEWARE of democratic organs which tell you there is dlscord in the repub- iican ranks. They are like the plck- pocket who cries "stop thief in or der to divert attention from himself. The republican party never was more harmonious, and is working like a unit to elect every candidate on the ticket. It IS the democratic party which is so disorganized. Their fueds began long before tkeir convention was held, and have only becom. more bitter day by day. The disafection in YavapIi county is notorious, and it cannot be cured. So deadly IS the hatred of a strong faction of old dyed .in-the-vool democrats, that they will either vote for republicans, or stay away from the polls altogether rather than vote for some of the prominent candidates, on their own ticket. Let every republican remem. Der this, that only in unity is ther C strength, let them vote the whole ticket without a scratch, aud theIr
 march to the polls, with the acces. slon from the democratic ranks, will be one continuous triumph.

MYERS FOR sHEaIFF.

THE people of the county demand this time a man to be elected for Sheriff, who will practice economy and help to reduce the rate of taxa tion at present existing. They will get both by voting for Jos. M. Myers. He is man we'll known to the major fly ot the voters and business men of Yavapai County. For years he has been a resident aud tax plYer and actively identified with one of the sading interests of Arizona, stock raising.
 He has acquired a well deserved reputation for scrupulous honesty with all with whom he has maintained business relations, and he will un' doubtedly carry into tEe m inagement of the SheriffS office the same princi- pies and methods by which that re putation has been secured. His un doubted fitness in every way for the office renders him an acceptable candidate to all lovers of good govern ment, irrespective offAction or party aud on election dly it will be de,non- strated by the grand majority thai honest old Joe Myers will receive.
