The Road Does
 Not Look Smooth
FOR JUNGLE GEORGE" MEEK IN
 SHELTER CITY.
for Justice of the Peace Should a Vacancy Occur There.

We hear the name of George Meek mentioned as a probable candidate for the office of justice of the peace in Douglas provided vacancy occurs. MT. Meek is the president of the Doug las printers union and is one of the gentlemen who were implicated in the boycott work aStempted against this office and it's employees. Should he be appointed as justice Of the peace probably one Of his first acts would be to impose a fine on the Interna- tional-American for contempt of court. because it claims the right to manage it's own affairs and employ whom it pleases. Furthermore, MT. Meek was the nominee of the Democratic party for the office of justice of the peace last fall, and was defeated by a Re publican, notwithstanding the fact that Douglas boiled the heaviest Democrat ic majority of any precinct in Cochis
 county. and ordinarily this would be taken as the best evidence that the people of Douglas did n0t want Mir Meek as justice Of the peace-InterEa-

Not a Word of
 Truth in It
THE PURCHASE OF FL PASO AND
 SOUTHWESTERN R. R.
Has Not Even Been Mentioned to Of ficials of the Road-The Statement Published in Denver Has No Foun- dation Whatever.

In regard to the published statement Paso and Southwestern R. R., passing into the hands of the Frisco" line, the report has not the slightest foun dation of truth in any part of it. Sev- eral days ago the clipping from the Denver paper was shown to Mir Wal ter Douglas. the managing director of the Fl Paso and Southwestern R. R., notwithstanding the fact that similar story was in circulation here some months ago, anG generally exploded at the time.
 A Review representative called on MT. Douglas at his office. and asked if there was anything in the statement, and he at once said
 There is not particle of truth in the matter at all. This is a resurrect- ed story which was going the rounds here some months ago, and was re- futed at the time Why should the Frisco want to come away west and thence south to compete with a line already under construction in 'Frisco's territory, and which is heading direct for the Gulf? It is not a probable thing that they would wish to build two miles for one. You can see by looking at this map that it would be like going 70 Denver by the way of San Francisco. No, sir, the Fl Paso and Southwestern R. R. has not now, nor has it ever had the slightest in- tention of disposing of it's interests to the Frisco or any other line, nor has the Frisco or Rock Island ever made a proposition to buy it." And thus is another dream" exploded

Los Angeles, California. Dec 3f.-
 Thomas Higgins, the Millionaire mi ger of Bisbee, Arizona, has shown his sturdy faith in the future Of Central Avenue for business purposes by Building a three-story brick business block st the corner of Central Avenue and Eighth street. In the building are five store rooms, all occupied but enc, while the two upper stories have seventy rooms. It stands on the southwest corner and is 120x90 feet, with its largest dimension on Central Avenue. It cost $30, 1000.
 The site of this brick structure is Ae old Parker homestead. Here stood the little white house Of Pioneer Parker for almost thirty years Ney- CT would MT.
