There has been considerable talk of
late about Santa Cruz securing glass
factory, and in the past few days mat
ters materialized SO that assurances
We're received from State Mineralogist
AuDury that 100000 would be invest
ed at the outset in plant for which
ne would recommend the site. Mr.. Au-
bury decided upon Santa Cruz as an
excellent location for such an enter
prise, and the Board of Trade promptly
went to work to see the matter
through. This was a big thing, as
about 200 men would be employed and
the yearly payroll would represent in
the neighborhood of a quarter OF
million dollars. The one thing required
was five acres OF suitable land near
suf1cient transportation facilities. It
was definitely decided at Wednesday
nights meeting that the Santa Cruz
Board of Trade will offer five acres of
ground as site for the glass plant.
and the same will be turned over to the
proper persons as soon rs State Min

ATTEMPTED MURDER
 OVER A WOMAN
Silver Bell May Have An- other Officer for
 Protection

A quarrel over a woman caused Homer Dubois, proprietor of the Legal Tender Saloon at Tucson, to attempt
 the life of John Quaglia, roomer in his house, according to information given out yesterday by Joseph Ward. at the Copper Queen Hotel. He said ~Quaglia escaped with scalp wound by running in his underclothes into the street He stated that Tucson was greatly worked up over the mat, ter, as Dubois was always well re spected and known as peaceable man. Quagiis had him arrested, but the preliminary had not been held when Mir. Ward left Tucson Tuesday. Dubois was out on bail.
 MT. Ward also stated that Sheriff Pacheco. of Pima county, was making arrangements to place an extra off cer at the Silver Bell Mining camp. The recent murder there of a woman named Altagarcia Mango by Ramon Castro, a miner, has led the sheriff to take this step. Silver Bell has been the scene of several murders in the past four months. Ranger Mo Kee and Undersheriff Henry Meyer are out with posse looking for Cas- tro.
 MT. Ward stated that development work in the Tucson mountains was be- ing pushed rapidly. but so far no rich strike has been made. He stated. however, that a considerable amount of low grade ore had been taken from the tunnel being driven into the noun tain and piled on the dump. This will not be smelted. He stated that the company working in Tucson noun tains was organized by capitalists liv- ing in Tucson. and that they were much encouraged from the present in dications. MT.

MAY TEST THE
 ELECTION LAW City Attorney Merritt Has Plan to Get Final <
 Opinion

A request will probably be made tt
 the Bisbee Chamber of Commerce ts
 take up the matter of obtaining ar opinion from the Supreme Court of Ari
 zona as to what constitutes qualified voter for the sewer bond election, ts
 be held February 5,i Considerable comment has been among the business
 men relative to the proposition made
 by City Attorney Merritt to the City Council Thursday night to test this
 iawza The concensus of opinion is that
 the scheme is very plausible. and that
 an opinioS should be handed down ou
 that matter by the Supreme Court oi Arizona before the election is held. If this is not done it is contended that a probable litigation and even an inyali- dalton of the sewer bonds, should they be carried, might result from the pres. ent construction of the law.
 City Attorney Merritt has written an opinion in the matter. in which he gave as his opinion that anyone who had all the other requisites of a voter ex- cept that his name was not on the great register, was entitled to a vote. He stated that this represented the opinion of every attorney in the city except one. and that it coincided with the opinion of the City Attorney of Douglas with the exception of one point. a. %
 In order to test the law on this point and get an opinion from the Supreme Court of Arizona which is, now in ses- sion at Phoenix, MT. Merritt proposed to get g man who had resided in the territory for IS years, in Cochise county and the City of Bisbee four months. and who was a property own CT in the city of Bisbee. have him make application to register snt the regis trar refuse him the privilege. Then on a writ of mandamus have ,an order issued from the District Court ordering that this party be registered for the election. The matter then to be talk en into the Supreme Court for a decis- ion. Owing to the fact that the man seeking to obtain the privilege to vote could appear before the Supreme Court by attorney and a hearing de- manded immediately. an opinion could be obtained from the Supreme Court in one day.
 Mir. Merritt has suggested this in order to overcome any possible litiga- ton growing out of the issuing of bonds for the sewer in case of the cleo ton carrying. It Is contended that reople who had resided in Cochise county and Bisbee for less than SIX
 months might object to the issusnee If bonds on the ground that he elee-. ton was Invalid. get an opinion from the Supreme Court which would sus- tain their, contention. thereby inysii. dating the sewer bond selesaen. NoI opinion has ever been handed down by the Supreme Court on this point and, as the law is very indefinite. City Attorney Merritt has. suggested this plan to get final opinion In the mat ter.
 An appeal will probably be made to he Chamber Of Commerce to take this natter up. A number of business nen have stated they would make al oriytae contribution towards paying he expenses in getting an opinion on his matter This matter will likely come before the Chamber of Con- neree at its eext meeting.
