TIE Graham Guardian has at last
been awakened to the fact that county
seat removal is again being discussed.
The Guardian claims that the bill
allowing removal by majority vote
was passed in the interest OF Stafford,
and states that when removal occurs,
it will be to Stafford. The Guardian
says: This place has been the only
candidate, and will continue to be an
til the county seat comes here, except
with those who desire 1t to remain
where il isl If this statement Is cor
rect, then Solomonvillc can rest easy
for the people OF the east end would be
very foolish to vote 10 remove the
county seat six miles further, causing
additional expense, and still greater
loss OF time. The people of the east
ern half Of the county, where a MAJOR
itv of the voters of the county reside,
naturally prefer SOlomonvillc, not that
they love Stafford less, but for the pure
" selfish reason that it will save them
money and time. Clifton does not care
for the county seat, except as Il matter
of convenience and a saving to the tax
payers of the county. Should Mo
renci become a candidate for the coun-
tv seat the Clifton vote would be q
unit for removal to Moreuci. But as
between Solomonville and Stafford, Gill
ton will favor the former. Under the
present law it is impossible for Stafford
TO secure sufficient number OF tax
payers signatures to the petition to
have an election ordered, As they must
represent ouc-third of the assessed
property values of the county. That
| lets Stafford out, hence If the bill was
passed especially in her interests II
was "love's labor lost Sorry foi
YOU, Birino, very sorry. You have
our sympathy, but that is about all yo'
will get out of it.

There was a meeting OF the executive
committee OF the democratic central
committee at Solomonvillc last week,
at which call was made FOR
TIE meeting of the entire central
committee for July 10Th. At that
time the date and place for holding
the democratic county convention Will
be determined. The convention
should be held at either Clifton or
Morenci, where the largo crowd OF
delegates and others Interested can be
better entertained than at towns IN
the valley. The people OF the eastern
end Of the county are compelled to al
tend court at Solomonviile twice 4
year, and it is only fair to allow the
people Of the valley the pleasure OF an
occasional visit in return. They vii
enjoy the trip, and it will give then
an opportunity TO see what Is going o.
in the cast end of the county.

For several days the conductors and
brakcmeu have received orders to
count the passengers in each ear on
trains running into Lordsburg both
from the east and west. What Is the
purpose OF the officials in this matter
is not known but il is supposed to be
for the purpose of cutting down the
number of cars on the trains At pres
ent the trains are very long and too
heavy for speed and il the number OF
passengers who travel on the road can

The total population as given by the
census for Arizona was l22 PIP. The
discrepancy a. appears from tOtaling
the population of each county j. recti-
fled by adding the number Of citizens
enumerated at San Carlos, which totals
1906, which should be credited to
Graham and ella counties. Ii will be
observed from the foregoing table that
Plnal county with less than two
sevonths OF the population of Pima or
Graham counties, has as many dele
gates as has Pima or Graham and with
less than one third the taxation prop
erty Of Pima or Graham counties. 1t
will also be observed that four counties,
MaricOpa, Pima, Yavapai and Graham,
which have more than half the popu-
lation OF the entire territory, has
total OF but fifteen delegates or less
than hrea-scventh5. These same
combined have nearly If not
more than two-thirds OF the taxable
property of the territory. Now if tax
