Arizona republican., 1899-09-28

| the Vidette The vote was 67 to 13- small one. Nearly every one believ- ed the ucte would have bsen carried
 unanimously; that to cast a vote was
 a mere fOrmality. It should have been carried without a dissenting vcice. The
 citizen who is not in accord with eco-
 homie public improvements; with the
 advance of public school principles and
 facilities, is un-American in senti- ment, a detriment to and a weight up Cn the community which he encum-
 bers. The contract for the construc tior eff the proposed building had been let pridr to the day of th5 election. This may account for some Of the neg ative votes; malinformation or misun- dersItandfng may account for the re-
 mainGe9. In any event these thirteen
 vl5tss stand as opponents to public inn
 pavement to education and advance
 ment.
 Just over the line in Ncga1es, Sc- nora, Saturday, happened the greatest gold strike of many years, says the Vii dette. It was a pocket Of nuggets that weighed in the aggregate more than fifteen pounds and valued at nearly $5,000. But the Mexican customs off cials made the strike and some enc is out the value of that geld It was in
 
 beer from HeTmosillC, tci CT. Luna y Cia.' which might be translated to read 'Ethe moon and other satellites. At all events, no one has appeared to represent T. Luna nor to claim the gold. If any one does make claim, a Mexican law is ready for his case. In consequence, Sr Mariana Azcarraga, collector of the pert, and his assistants are gathers to the extent of the find. The collector is believed to possess some clue as to the owner of the gold, but for the present prefers to say noth ing.
 Two men and two women from Ge- rcilfma were befCFs Judge Hyatt at last Tuesday for grand larceny and were acquitted, says the Graham Guardian. It seems that a stranger on the train coming from Globe, who was about three sheets in the wind, lost his hat On arriving at Geronimo he started for a stcre to pu-- chase "a hat but wound up in a saloon and forget all about needing a hat. He commenced treating and the train lett l him. Then he settled down to busi- ness and kept on treating. The more | he treated the drunker he got and the | drunker he got the oftener he treated. ! When he sobered up he claimed that | he had been robbed Of $500 and had the | parties arrested above mentioned, but ! at the trial as he had no very well de i fined recollection of his actions CT who | was with him they were discharged.
