Last Saturday evening. at the Elks' Theater. a mass meeting was held. Its obvious purpose vas to diseredit tho present City administration. Many reckless allegations were made for the benefit of the some l0t people who at tended the meeting. Long lists of fig. nes were read, tending to prove the "reckless expenditures of the City Council. After several hours spent in this manner the mass meeting ad- journed.
 Sunday morning the Journal Miner presented these lists of figures, and the statements made st the mass meeting, ia full and unbiased manner. and then proceeded to show just eIsetly wha, the City Council had accomplished for the City of Prescott, leaving the decision with it's readers.
 Yesterday the citizens of Prescott. at the polls, answered the arguments for and against, and the result was an over whelming endorsement and vindication of the present City Council.
 Every member of the old Council wa. reelected by substantial majorities and the matter of granting the fran chise for a public utility passed by au almost unanimous vote.
 The result of the election is n splen did tribute to the intelligence of the people, and 1t demonstrates that when facts are presented to them by n news paper in which they have confidence that they are thoroughly competent to settle all questions at the polls accord ing to the principles of justice and equity.

ORGANIZATION OF NEW CLOTH
 ING FIRM.
(From Thursday s Daily)

The old firm of Bilcs & shelby, which has had such phenomenal success in thc clothing and mcn's furnishings Iu.,pr.4 since is establishment by those tNo ganilcmcn on June 1. 1901, has b,op dissolved and in it's place has arisen tbc new firm of the Bilcs, Lock bor, Clothing company, which bids fair to enjoy even greater need ot success than did the old firm.
 Mr. shelby. the retiring partner, has not been actively connected with the firm for the past eighteen months, and | with thc taking over of his remaining interest by Archie Lockhart, who has been engaged with the old firm for the past year or morc Mir shelby re. tires permanently to engage in other pursuits.
 The new partner, MT. Lockhart, | brings to the already flourishing firm not only youthful energy and brains, but added capital as well. Since the | organization of the firm the business has enjoyed steady growth. and many enlargcmcnts and improvements have been made in the store, stock and fix. lures, from time to time.
 Following out their plan of keeping well abreast of the times. the new firm has en route five magnificent glass show cases, adorned with electric light appliances, and in addition. have cs- tablished comfortable office in the rear part of the store.
 In the past two seasons the firm has added line of fine clothing to their stock, and in doing SO, have maintained the usual high standard of their motto: "Thc people who lead in every line they add to their stock.n In 1906 the business of the firm increased over 200 per cent, as compared with the busi ncs transacted in 1905.
 A personal inspection of their store, located in the Burke block, on Monte. zumn street, by the writer. disclosed one of the most modern haberdasherics in Prescott. Piles of we'll made, mod crn clothing were arranged in order on tho counters, and in addition the store was fully equipped with the new clothes hanger, which is one of the most mod. crn styles of displaying clothing. A full line of mcn's wearing apparel, shirts, ties, etc., was tastcfully display. cd in the show cases.
 Mir. Biles, in conversation with the writer, stated that he believed the great success of the business the past year was due largely to the efforts of Mir. Lockhart, who has just become his part. ncr Mir. Lockhart hns had several years experience in the hnberdashery business. and it is safe to prcdic, that the new firm will enjoy in the future the success that has attended its cf. forts in the past.
 | Not content with the large business the store secures from the city trade, the new firm intends going into the outlying districts, the mining camps and villages, for additional business and with two such hustlers as Messrs n
 new firm should easily becmoc one of the most important of its kind in the Territory,
 l The members of the new firm of the Biles. Lockhart Clothing company stated that they were in better condi ton this year to handle their con hdcnily expected increased bushes. than ever before.
