favor the appointment OF a committee

Two Mexlcans were before Jus.
tice Hunter last Monday on a
charge of indecent exposure. Both
plead guilty to the charge and
were fined So each. The lghtness
of the fine was on account of this
beng their first offence, and that
numerous Americans are more
guilty than these Mexicans.
Such conduct as the Mexicans
were fined for is of common oc.
currance not only with some Mex.
leans but also with number OF
white men, whose conduct should
be exemplary. If Judge Hunter
has occasion to fine one of those
Americans it should be at least $50

THIEVES.


The word thieves is a harsh one
ard conveys the meaning to honest
cars Of something degrading, some
thing to be Stunned by respectable
psopls. But there are different
kinds of thieves. Sometimes peo
pie are thieves when they are posi-
tive they have always been honest
in every particular, and have al
ways treated their neighbor as
they themselves would be treated
The kind of thieves we speak OF
are those who turn their stock IN
the streets. There are numerous
men both in this town and IL
others who think themselves to be
strictly honest and are considered
80 by others, who will deliberately
turn their horses and cows into the
street, knowing well when it is
done that they must either steal OF
stYfve, and the result Is that they
steal. 1t is just as bad for an olo
ecw or horse to destroy $40 worth
of shade trees as it would be for
their owner to steal that amount.
For years some of the people OF
Saflord have tried to beautity the
town by planting trees on the side
walks and have been unsuccessful
because they have been destroyco
by neighbor's stock. How woul,
the owners of this stock like to find
one or more OF their animals dead
each morning when they get up, xii
lee by wanton hauds. Yet should
this occur il would be no worse
than the owner of shade trses are
suffering each day.
This problem is becoming more
serious and we suggest to the own.
or Of stock that if they cannot take
tule ot them TO sell them. They
have no right 10 allow their
81 imals so run at large in the
streets to destroy tho property OF
their neighbors.
1t is not right; it is not honest;
1t is not honorable.

BOWIE COUNTY, NIT.

As was expected the Bowie
county bill has been introduced
III the legislature, making the
county seat at Wilcox. This SIM
ply takes the place of the Chiri'
cahua county of two years ago.
Bowie county will certainly die
in the embryo, as it should. The
great majority Of people of both
Graham and Cochise counties do
not want the division and as they
are the interested parties, the
legislature will simply be carrying
out the wishes of the people they
represent by killing this measure
az anickly as possible.
Tie members from Graham and
.cocbise couuties can be relied on
10 fight Bowie county to . finish
for they we're elected on a plat
form declaring against county
division.
This agitation of making more
counties should be stopped by
passing bin submitting the pro
nosition of making new counties
To the voters.
The people of Graham and Co
ob,se counties do not want new
o,nntv. The agitation is simply
kent alive by u lot OF politician
