 Deputy Sheriff Jeff Davis is making most excellent officer. Last night and today he is working gathering in the many hobOs who have lately come to Jerome, and will bring them before the justice as vags, who undoubtedly will give them the choice Of leavin g town or doing a little work on the road. The work of Officer Davis is well timed as a fire was discovered early yesterday morning under the building occupied by the Palace sa- loon, which was undoubtedly set by one of these gentlemen of leisure. The timely discovery of this fire saved Je- rome another heavy loss by fire. There is no excuse for any man who cares to work to remain idle in Jerome, and Officer Davis will see that they earn their grub if they remain here.-Je- rome Daily News.
