 We, the members et the Grand Jury, beg leave to make the follow ing report:
 True bills were found in the fol- lowing cases:
 Territory of Arizona vs. Ricardo Amabisca-felony.
 Territory of Arizona vs. J. Me Coy-nssault with deadly weapon. Territory of Arizona vs. John Mann-forgery. Territory of Arizona vs. Andres Mendoza-mayhem.
 Two cases presented to us for con- siderstion were ignored. REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON BOARD OF
 SUPERVISORS.
 To the Honorable Grand Jury We, the undersigned committee, beg leave to submit the following report:
 After a careful examination of the Supervisers's office we do not find that any record has ever been kept of the indebtedness of the county-funded and fioating-er any description of property owned by the county, or estimate of the amount of cash in the treasury for the payment of such indebtedness as required by law according to the Revised Statutes of Arizona, Page 131-42O, Section 40, reference there- to is hereby made.
 We also find that the book for keeping records of receipts from school lands to be not properly in dsxsd. We also find that many of the expenses of the county fer the year 1898 are nearly double of those for the year 1897, but our time did not permit a close investigation as to cause or justice of such addi- tional expense.
 The records from January 1, 1899, to date are not complete and we are unable to judge in any manner of the work of the present Board of Supervisors.

Why men do not marry has been a
subject agitating many minds since the

Harper's Bazaar A statistician has told
us that the geographical distance was

trouble is widespread and that in the
United States there are 2,20O, 900 more

not always as wives, but always as
helpers to pioneers. Thus wives, sis
tiers and maids are all to come in for a
training, so as to take their places
side by side with the pioneers Of a new
country. But, helpful as this latter
suggestion may be, it does not solve
the marriage question, Tor the pioneer
sister who stands dutifully by her
brother is in as much danger Of being
left an old maid as those who remain
at home. All this, however, does not
settle the question. But, then, why
should men and women marry oftener
than they do? They are trained from
infancy to distrust each other. The
wonder is that they marry at all and
without going to pieces in every in
stance. There is only one thing to be
done-to bring up boys and girls to
understand each other, to be mutually
considerate. trustful and loyal. Some
times It seems as though a great war
Of the sexes was being waged in the
world, where peace and harmony ought
to prevail To bring about that peace
work must begin in our nurseries and
our Fairgrounds. our young mothers
and our fathers helping in the task.
In no family, moreover, ought men and
women be allowed to criticise each 9TH
