In the Police Court.
 Judge Harrington was a busy man Tuesday. Charles Holt and wife were arrested on complaint of Jamie Malcomb, whose life they had threatened. After submitting to their abuse for some time, his honor instructed the sheriff to take them to the county jail, where he would permit them to sleep off some of their meanness and booze with which they were loaded. By the combined efforts of Sheriff Tender son and Cumberland Michels, Mrs. Holt was finally landed in the bas- tile, while Charley submitted with out murmur. Jamie Malcomb is young girl of about 16 years and some steps should be taken to re- lieve her from the custody of the Holt outfit, who are unfit to care for her.
 A knight of the break beam was also in front of the judge for the use of obscene language on the street. His honor gave him a sus- pended sentence of thirty days. but the attractions were too great, and after leaving town he returned. He is now feeding at Hotel Henderson. M. E. Church Building.
 The imposing ceremony of the laying of the corner stone of the new Methodist church occurred, last Monday afternoon with the usual solemn rites of the church. The services were conducted by Rev. S. J. Rogers, superintendent of Ari- zona missions; Rev. F. c. Reid and the pastor, Rev. A. M. Lumpkin. A very appropriate sermon was de- livered by MT. Rogers, who dwelt on the progress of the church in the west, and especially in Arizona.
 Into the receptacle in the stone prepared for the purpose were placed Bible. hymn book, list of names of the officers of the church. choir, and organist, brief history of the church here since It's organization, church and local papers. names of the builders, Dietzman & .Rodri guez, and picture of the old church. Upon completion the church will be one of the finest structures in the territory, and the zeal of the congregation in the erec- tion of so handsome place of wor- ship is to be highly commended.
 c. Dwight Marsh, of the depart ment of agriculture, will arrive in Flagstaff on Sunday night. He is making thorough study of the loco weed, and will probably camp on the mountain for some time.

WHY NOT ACT JUSTLY.

The pulling of several colored
cribs in the red light district and
fineing the inmates because they
harbored young white boys who
are still in their teens, meets the
appreciation of the general public,
but what the COLORADO STATES
MAN would like to know is, why
the special officers did not at the
same time seek to protect the col
ored youth who are victims at the
hands of designing women and
lured into dens of vice.
We firmly believe in protecting
the youth of our city but we also
believe that peace officers should
make no distinction in the class or
color of the youth that is protected
Colored youth need to be safe
guarded as we'll as the white youth.
Our contention is not against ar
resting and fineing those who are
guilty of debauching manhood but
we strongly protest that discrimi-
should not be made. All paths to
sin and crime are wide open to the
young colored boys and girls, they
are the victims of all kinds of in.
ducements to ruin and when il
comes to closing the doors and
removing the temptations, thei1
salvation ought to be as carefully
considered as any others. We
have only good words to offer fol
the efforts of the authorities to in.
terpose in behalf of the young but
we do not feel that full justice is
done until the colored youth is
shielded the same as other classes.
Let the authorities make no dis
tinction and they will have our un-
qualified approval in their efforts
TO save the young.
