 The question of selecting a super visor to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of T. NJ. Earnhart, was settled today and H. Fl. Cartier, an old line and true blue democrat was elected to fill the unexpired term. Supervisor Scnuerman and Probate Judge Hicks and Chairman Roach voted in his favor. But two other applications other than NIT. Cartter's were formally tiled, that of l.. A. Willard and D. J. Sullivan, al. though many prominent people were mentioned in connection with the position. The new member of the board is perhaps more widely known in Yauapai county politics than any person, and it may be stated also that no man in the his tory Of Arizona politics has held as many public offices as he has. For thirty years past his name has been before the people in a succession of offices, covering that of clerk of the board, deputy treasurer, clerk of the court, county recorder, deputy re- corder, probate judge, under sheriff, assistant district attorney, school trustee, justice of the peace and coroner and public administrator. He has been recognized by his party in addition to the above with several nominations, failing in some and winning in others. His name it would seem is synonymous with that of his partisan belief, and though tenn porarily at times shelved, he comes to the surface again like he comes in this instance. NIT. Cartier, while democrat of the old tune school in persistency and in fidelity, is nevertheless one who has a good record behind him. or his official duties in the past, there is no re- iection to be cast on his honesty, while in the matter of ability, he is perhaps without a peer in his party in possessing a knowledge that fits him for any position his party may entrust him with. In seeing him again at the helm of his political ship, as it rides through the sea of financial breakers, we trust his pilot ing may be blessed with smooth sailing to all, but even in this belief we cannot refrain from saying, may God have mercy on his soul.
 The question of reduction works for Prescott is assuming somewhat definite shape again, and it would seem that this proposition, around which there hinges everything good and fruitful for the future welfare of not only Prescott, but likewise the entire mining region, is to be consummated at last in reality. In connection with the probable early inauguration of work on this enter prise, Dr. Wall informs us that he is in receipt of a letter from the Beam Reduction Company, who have a plant in operation in Denver, stating that that company have Prescott in view as a desirable center cooperate in, and that J. s. Best, associated with the above company, is prepar- ing to come to this city, and arrange for the erection of a plant. The doctor is personally acquainted with the above people, and says that they are a practical concern, favorably known to miners wherever they operate, and that if they decide to locate in Arizona, which now seems favorable, will deal fairly and cour- teously with all. Prescott's desira- bility as a central point to operate from in mines and mining has long been known, and it begins to look, from the interest shown us on the outside, that the gap which for so many years has been open, is at last to be closed by practical solution of the problem which is contained in reduction works of a first class order.
 Society circles here as elsewhere will be interested ;n an event which has just terminated in a court "way down in Maine" in which Miss Dingley, a niece of the author of the DingleY tariff bill, was sued for breach of promise by young man, and judgment rendered in the mans favor. 1t seems that Miss High Protective Tariff became en- gagged to the man, put him on the Free List of her affections and then, worst of all married per son from New Jersey. The rejected forthwith brought suit for reve- nue. and the judge placed a duty of l760 silver dollars on his wounded feelings. Once in long while the system in breach of promise cases is reversed, but we men figure so sell dom on the winning side that this verdict should be soothing balm on the back of the susceptible old bachelor.
