 Tombstone. Jan. 1.-The Board of Supervisors at their meeting today, upon the advice of the District Attor- ney decided to lay the petition of the citizens of Douglas for the appoint ment of another Justice of the Peace and Constable on the table. The Dis trict Attorney. in a lengthy opinion ad- vised the Board that under the pres lent wording of the statute they had no authority to grant such a petition unless st was shown that the popuia- tion of Douglas was over 5000. He advised that if the citizens of Douglas were to take a census of the city and that it showed a population of over that amount the request of the peti- ton could be granted. but that no esti- mate based upon the number of voters or the number of school children could bbe accepted. If the citizens of Doug las want another set of precinct off cers bad enough to take a census and pay the expenses of the same. they might be able to secure them. or they might secure some relief through the legislature by having the present law amended.
