THE TOWNSHIP FUNDS.

A townsite meeting has been called for Dec 2, to determine what dispo- sition shall be made of the funds in the trustee's hands. The meeting has been called at the instance of property owners of the east end of town with the view of voting portion of the money to pay for repairs made to the Hill street bridge. As that bridge was built with money appropriated from the townsite fund, we think the property owners and residents of that neighborhood, the only people really benefited, should keep tho bridge in repair without asking further donations from the public fund.
 This is especially pertinent since there are other purposes for which the money in the townsite fund could be expended to much better advantage and to the benefit of a larger number of people and heavier taxpayers in the community. Last winter, it will be remembered, a meeting was held at wtich a resolution was passed, and almost unanimously supported, favor ing the appropriation of the money then in the townsite fund for water purposes, the idea being to increase the water supply as further safe guard against fire in the business DOT ton of town. Unfortunately, no further steps were taken to ratify this intention and formulate plans for the expenditure of the money.
 We think it will be generally ad- mitted that more adequate provision against fire, liable to occur at any time and destroy the most valuable portion of the town, is of far greater importance than to maintain bridge on side street. We hope to see a large attendance at the meeting on the 27th inst, that full expression of the property owners may be obtained on this question.

----------- -------------- YUMA PRISON NOTES.

Sheriff D. R. Williamson and depu- ties, H. II. Pratt and Bud Armer have returned from Yuma where they dcliv- cred to the superindent of the terri torial prison the five prisoners convicted of various penal offenses at the recent term of the district conrt. There are not now many offenders from Gils county in duress at Yuma, as a majority of those sent up in past years proved to be good wood choppers ana earned their release, which Is not difficult to accomplish under the present adrninis- tration. Those recently pardonsd are Sliukard, Booth and Blevins, trio that for depravity and general cussedness it would be hard to match in Arizona.
 Those still remaining in the pen, hailipg from Gila county, appear to be favored guests, holding positions of trust Phil Askins, who murdered Charley Bouquet, has charge of the hog ranch, and spends many idle moments, watching fish poles depending from the banks of the Rio Colorado. Rogers, the train robber, is librarian of the prison; Frank Armer is chief cook of the establishment, aud Travis, formerly steward of the Globe hospital, is boss of the gang at work on the ditch of the State of Arizona Improvement Go.
 Thirty-two convicts were added to the force working for the canal com pany last Sunday. Tue management of the convicts employed on the con- tract is ingenious. Each man has one day deducted from his term of impris- onment for every three days labor per formed. At night they are herded in a big tent, with n single guard stationed at each end The prisoners are ex- pected to guard each other, and in case ono of their number escapes, all the others are held responsible and lose the credits which they have earned. "Discoverer" McCord and old Dorring- ton may yet gain renoun for having solved the problem of how to work convict labor in satisfactory manner to the convicts and to the government, although there are probably few, if any, states which would hazard such scheme.

LIVE STOCK LAWS S--OPiNIONS BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.

At the request of the live stock san itary commission Attorney General Frazier submitted opinions on three matters with which the board was per plcxed and regarding which the law creating the board was not explicit.
 The first is the disposition of fees re- coiyed for recording brands. The law provides that all brands to be recorded shall be accompanied by fee of S2, but it does not say what shall be done with it. Heretofore the secretary has kept all such fees whether the brands were recorded or not. The attorney general decides that in cases of brands not recorded the fee must be returned to the sender. In other cases the pro- ceeds must he applied to the pay ment for the clerical work of recording the brands and the balance, if any, to be applied to defraying other expenses of the commission. The law creating the board negiects to make any pro- vision for furnishing it with all office. An opinion on this point authorizes the board to equip an office with such furniture and stationery as may be necessary for the transaction of busi- ness. Neither is any provision in the law directly made for paying for the publication of brand book, though it directs that this be done.
 The attorney general believes that the publication of a brand book, a copy of which is to be filed m all offices of county recorders, is one of the chief objects for which the board was created. He believes the board should publish such a book, and he assures the members that no personal responsibility can attach to them in the matter of the expense thereby in cured. He recommends the commis- sion, however, to confer with the board of control regarding the fund out of which the expense of publica- ton is to be paid.-Republican.

MISSED THE MARK.

The editor of the Graham County Bulletin has drawn pen picture of us as a journalistic ostrich, with our head in a hole, and then proceeds to apply his editorial boot to the posterior of our anatomy. A suggestive illustra- tion, truly, and presenting us in a very uncomfortable and undlgnitied posi- tion, but lacking the essential lines of truth to make the picture effective.
 The Bulletin attempts to convict us of inconsistency as between our account of the Globe miners strike in June, 1896, and recent allusion to one of the chief causes of that unpleasant oc- currence. but by strange oversight i've would hate to think our esteemed contemporary would purposely mislend its readers) the Bulletin omits almost the only part of our statement of the trouble-the strained relations which had existed between superintendent and foreman, aud which we gave as one of the contributive causes, that would justify our recent allusion to the incident. There is nothing irrecon. cilable in the two statements, and we do not propose to revive profitless discussion. If the Bulletin can extract any satisfaction from the discussion raised hy our editorial. "Morsl of the Clifton Crimes" it is welcome to it. We have submitted the question to the people and will abide their verdict.
 As the Bulletin is so intent upon convicting us of inconsistency, may We ask how the accusations of gross i'm morality against this community, made ip its issue of Nov. l9, are to be recon ciled with its latest effusive praise of Globe and it's people? Which state- ment are we to accept as the honest opinion of the editor of the Bulletin?
 The editor of the Bulletin need give himself no concern as to whether the policy of the SILVER BELT is endorsed at home. He will find it more profit able to inquire into public opinion in the Gila valley, Graham county, touch ing affairs at Clifton and Morenci.

As will be noted elsewhere in this issue the sanitary live stock board have decided that S2 is the requisite fee for recording brand, although there is nothing contained in the revised stock laws of Arizona to authorize the ex- action of so large a fee. Sec. 51 of the revised laws provides that fee of fifty cents shall be charged for record ing brand, and Sec. 52 authorizes the board to charge fifty cents for a certified copy of tLe brand So recorded.

SENATOR" IVES AND THE
 YUMA FARMERS.

After the reprimand administered to us by the Sentinel for questioning the honesty of intention of the State of Arizona Improvement compsny and the feasibility of their big canal pro- ject, we are surprised to learn from the Yuma Snn that serious differences have arisen between the Improvement company and the farmers under the old ditch, which the new company pur- chased and is enlarging. It appears that the farmers had buught water rights from the old company, for which some of them paid S5a an acre, and that "Senatur" Ives, the "ben. efactor," who has promised to trans. form the country about Yuma into Il paradise tat the expense of the terri tory) refuses to recognize the rights of these honest toiers. He has tine hardihood to say, q fail to see where in we are under obligations to redeem the unfortunate specnlations of the farmers who paid $50 for water tights any more than you would expect to pay the debts of n rapidly failing mer- cantile company" The comparison MT. Ives makes is ridiculous.
 Mr. Ives, as lawyer, even thongh he may not want to fulfill the obliga- tions which morally rest upon his com pany, must admit that the claims of hand owners who have in good faith purchased water rights from the origi- nal canal company are valid and ln- alienable in law, notwithstanding the transfer of the canal property to new owners. Otherwise there would be DO security to any land owner tn Arizona who has purchased water rights from a company whose business it is to fur nish water for irrigation. Mir. Ives probably thinks that the unfortunate farmers under his canal, through lack of knowledge or means, will fail to assert their rights.
 Of course this denoument is not sur prising to those acquainted with the NcCord-Ives combine. If they would enter into an agreement to secure the labor of the convicts upon terms which deprives the territory of any resulting benefits, it is folly to expect that they will recognize the inst claims of the farmers of Yuma county.
 Tt will be necessary for the owners of land to be irrigated under our canal, says MT. Ives," to purchase or contract for water rights for the same at s20 per acre, to be paid for On the basis of s2 down and S1 per year thereafter. with accrued interest at the rate of z per cent per annum." In ad- dition to this cost of water rights, If we read aright, farmers will be re- quirea to pay for water annually at the rate of S5 per acre. with the promise from the company that at some future time, not fixed. it will place water on the lands at S2 50 per acre.
 As a result of the unreasonable de- mands of the Improvement company new irrigation projects are forming at Yuma, which promise to develop very strong opposition to Mir. Ives enterprise.
