 A few days ago man was arrested for using profane language. The individual was taken into Jus tice Culver's court where he plead guilty to the charge and the judge thought that fifty dollars fine or fifty days in the town jail would about sal isfy the damages done to the town statutes. Tempe is not the town to be beaten out of house and home in that way. A hurried consultation Of the powers was held and the services of an attorney were secured to help the town to escape the effect of it's own laws. The attorney drew up q document which was signed by the mayor and then served on Judge Gull yer. After a multitude of whereases l the document goes on to state, in eff | feet, that the judge ought to have found out the length of the prisoners l sack before passing sentence, other | wise the ordinance would prove un- profitable. The depleted state of the | city's finances did not admit of any long time boarders. It was suggested | to the judge that the sentence be re- | duced to three days in jail and eight | dollars fine. The judge was staggered 1 a little by the proposition, but finally. | under protest, agreed to it.-Tempe | News
