 Our contemporary seems Co be pos sessed of a very short memory, as it seems to fail to remember that head quarters were removed from Whipple under Grover Cleveland's reign. F. W. Coover, private secretary of E. NJ. Sanford, local attorney for the A. r. railroad, and solicitor for the P. & A. c. railroad. left this morning for his former home in Kansas City, to spend the holidays with his relatives. MT. Coover has become very popular since his residence in Prescott, and his many friends here wish him pleasant visit and safe return to Prescott.
 Tax payers are talking as if they would like to have Mayor Howard re- elected. He has certainly taken an ac. tive interest in city affairs during his iacumbency of the mayors office. There being no remuneration whatever for the work required of mayor, We dc not know whether His Honor would accept the position for another term or not.
 Mir. "Yavapai," well known terri torial othceholder under the Zulick regime, comes to the rescue of his old chief Ill this mornings paper and at tempts to excuse him for his criminal neglect in the matter of the ten pocketed laws, by endeavoring 10 shift the re- sponsibility on some one else's shoul- ders. Judge Sloan, who was mem. Der of the council, be seems to think, should have looked after these pigeon holed bills. There would be just ss much sense and reason in Mir. "Yava- pail holding one of the pages responsi- ble as Judge Sloan or any other man except c. Meyer Zulick.
 The transfer of the cattle cla inns de- partment Of the Atlantic and Pacihc | railroad to tue law department, under the management of Judge W. c. Hazle- dine, will probably be an advantage .e persons having claims for stock killed. It has heretofore been in the office of | the general manager, whose duties are such that they require sli his attention outside of this. The department will hereafter be known as the claims divi. sion of the law department, and while 1t will be under the management of Judge Hazledine, his confidential man, Karl Snyder. will look after the details. while Carl Holton will hold the posi- tion of travelling adjuster of claims. While wedo not know that any dis.at- exists on the part of those who have had stock killed, in regard to the settlement of their claims, We feel as- SUI red that justice will be accorded to 1 all who have claims of this kind against the company hereafter, as Judge Hszle. dine has always been noted for fairness in bis dealings on railroad matters. He has keen perception of justice. and of right and wrong, and while protect ing the interests of the company he SO ably represents, be Is not only cour- ] teeus but fair and just with all who have claims against 1t. No better evi. dence of this assertion Is needed than the simple fact that ln no single in- stance has s ease been taken into court ! after refusal on the part oi the claim. ant to adjust amicsbly with Judge Ha. zledine, that the latter has not won it, and this, too, in the face oi the well known prejudice usually existing against railroads III the minds oi jurors.
