Its duties are more for the performance f police court work than any other, he collection of fines from evil oers and the regulation of the { conduct in short. h.

Prescott, as a corpora i on, is hard up financially, and i sdly so. Most of the money paid l ito the county treasury for fines ,ould go to the cita. which is [ ,rely in need of every cent now :, lat the council Is under heavy ex- I ense on a water and street grading c involving steady drain , n its finances. It is stated on the I ther hand, however, in behalf of [ tvs course in permitting the jus a ces of the peace and the county to zap the rewards of the fines paid, lat it cannot afford to speculate on lminal element to the extent. of en a trial, for fear of making a and being obliged to ,ard to the victim in case he is q ,oke in purse. The amounts paid !. l fines through the justice for the olation of city ordinances will run ito the hundred of dollars for the 2 ast year, and would help materially , carry out several improvement 2 ] the city which the council is now -amped on. If man is willing to olate the law and too poor to pay ,r it, create water works gang nd you wont quit any loser on his oard.
