hEALE URGED
FOR HEAD OF
Dem. TICKET
Prominent Attorney Says He
Would Accept Nomination
If Given Without Any 0ppo-
Sition.

In view Of the rumors which have
been afioat lately to the effect that
George H. Neaie, city attorney, would
accept the nomination for mayor on
the Democratic ticket in the coming
municipal election, statement was
secured from the gentleman in which
ne affirms the report conditionally.
A representative Of the Review calf
ed on Neale last evening and asked
him If the report were true. In re-
ply he said:
'If the party as a whole considers
that l am the most available candi-
date l will accept the nomination.
I would very much prefer, howeyei,
to hee some one else selected. ] am
not seeking the nomination, but
would take It on the conditions l
have named"
There is no doubt that with Neale
at the head of the ticket in the com.
ing municipal campaign the Demo
cratic party would be considerable
distance on the road to victory. He
has been a resident of the city for q
long time, and has host of personal
friends. His brilliant record in the
courts of the territory leave no doubt
as to his ability to give the city's
affairs the best possible administra-
ton. He is acknowledged to be
one of the ablest attorneys in tais
section Of the country, although a
comparatively young man
A great many iof Neale's friends are
urging his candidacy, and there does
not seem to be the slightest doubt
but that the nomination win be ten
dered him without opposition and
that he will be elected.

PROCEEDINGS
IN BIG SUIT
City Must Pay Mrs. Hargrove
Full Amount of Judgment
With Interest-Error Made
In Appeal of Case.

In view OF the recent decision of
the supreme court In the case OF Mrs.
Belle Hargrove VS.. the City of BisbeeI
for damages for an injury she sus-
tanned two years ago the city will
have to settle the Judgment without
further litigation. This was the de-
cision arrived at yesterday by City
Attorney George Neale, who had been
going over the record 10 t1e hope
that there would be some point on
which an appeal could be based. The
supreme court decided the case on an
error in practice, made by former City
Attorney Merritt.
Mrs. Hargrove fell and broke one
OF her limbs on Opera Drive on the
evening of February 10, 1906. The
place where the accident occurred
was dangerous, as there was a drop
from the roadway of about eight feet
which was unguarded Through nei
attorney, Joseph E. Morrison, she
brought suit against the city for $10,-
600 damages, and after trial OF the
case in the district court at Tomb
stone jury on June 81. 1906, rendered
a verdict awarding her damages in
the sum of $500.
S. A. Merritt, who was at that time
city attorney, made a motion for a
new trial, which was oyerruled, and
then gave notice Of appeal to the
supreme court of the territory. When
the record was taken to the supreme
court Morrison for the defense moved
that the transcript Of evidence be
stricken out on the ground that Mer-
rift had taken it from the office OF
the clerk of the district court before
the attorneys for the defense had had
the statutory time-to file objections.
It was on this point that the su-
preme court based. its decision sus-
tanning Morrison's motion to strike.
George H. Neale, who has since 10
come city attorney, received copy
of the decision and went over 1t in
the hope that there might be some
grounds for the appeal, but the nature
OF the decision is such that 1t leaves
the city without any recourse
When the city took the case to the
higher court surety company fur
nished the appeal bond, so that the
plaintiff can recover judgment with
out, further delay. This means that
the company viii have to pay Mrs.
Hargroye $500 with interest at the
rate of six per cent dating form June
81, 1906, and that the city will be
indebted to the surety company for
this amount
