C!ifton Ease BaIl club OreanIzed.

At meeting of a number of the
base ball fans of Clifton and repre-
sentatives of the Eagle team last
Saturday night, it was decided to
throw IN together aud organize the
Chiffon base bail club. The meeting
wds cOnhued to business and every
person present discussed the base
ball situation from beginning 10 end,
with the result that harmony Will
prevail In the future. The following
elections were made: Geo. Fraser,
president; r. j. Duudgau, vice-presi-
dent; w. A. PITT, manager: J.. j.
Kelly, secretary and treasurer. The
organization of the Clifton Ciub does
not destroy the Eagle team, but
players viii be drafted from both
teams Whenever match games are
played with outside teams. Between
the two teams, and the amount of
support that will be forthcoming,
combined with the new officers, Cliff
ton Will suon be in shape 10 regain
some OF her lost laureis so far this
season. There are Il number Of good
ball players here in town and all that
is needed Is one or two good pitchers.
Arrangements are now being made
to fill this vacancy anu pros poets are
good Tor Clifton winning the next
match game. The Morenci fans
have had things their own way long
enough and that team is now the
1 pride of the D. 9. company. 1t is
| the desire, if proper support is forth
c0ming, OF the new Chiffon organiZa-
/ ton to put d team that will be the
/ pride of the companies Of Clifton.
/ Now that Clifton is on the right road
/ the prOpOsl tiou of better diamond
naturally comes up. The grand
stand also needs repairs and the
| present suits are Il disgrace to any
team. For this purpose II viii be
necessary to solicit support from all
who want to see the Clifton team
succeed and also have the pleasure
OF witnessing some good bali games.
Ia order 10 bring In outside team,
the club must have funds on hand
with which 10 guarantee expenses
as the gate receipts seldom amount
to enough TO pay them.

THE Stafford Guardian of last week
contained a long editorial in which
was announced the necessity of d
new court house building for Graham
county and naturally the Guardian is
of the opinion that Stafford is the
proper place to locate the new build
ing 1t was also stated that nine
tenths of the people of Graham
county favor Stafford as the new
county seat, but the editor of the
Guardian no doubt ignored the peo-
pie of the eastern end of the county.
Graham county certainly needs a new
courthouse and county hospital and
the ERA agrees with the Guardian
when it states that the present
county seat buildings are disgrace
to a prosperous county. 1t will be
but short time until the question of
a new courthouse viii arise and then
its location will be discussed. The
county seat should be located at a
point where it would be the most
convenient to the majority of the
residents of the county, which al
present is not the case and would be
still worse if it was located at SAT
ford. The eastern end of the county
pays the greatest portion OF the
taxes; it has the largest population
and why should not the county seat
be moved-this way-if it is moved al
all. The residents of the ella valley
do not realize how the residents OF
the county are burdened when
they are called to court. Especially
is it hardship on witnesses who lose
their time besides transportation
fares and hotel bills. Clifton is a de
sirable location for the county seat,
but she is not pulling very hard for
it. Should the question come to a
vote between Clifton and Stafford,
Clifton would certainly get the
county seat. Duncan would not be
such a bad location for the county
seat and would perhaps meet with
the approval of the valley people.
Now that the question has been
started, let's boost it along and If
the lower valley does not want to
give up the county seat perha ps it
win favor county division.

Lordsburg was the scene of
bloody shooting scrape last Saturday
morning, which resulted in the death
Of three people. 1t seems that a
nan by the name of George Allen
was roOming in the same building
with Nj. and Mrs. oliver Garrison
several miles out from LOrdsburg and
Allen and Mrs. Garrison formed an
attachment for each other. CARR
son worried over the matter cOnsid-
erably and finally decided that he
would put an end to it and on Satur-
day entered his home and shot his
wife through the head. Allen was
sleeping in an adjoining room and
Garrison entered his room also ana
took couple of shots both of which
took effect in Aliens body. Allen
was awakened by the shooting and
had d gun under his pillow, but he
did not get q chance to use it. Car
rison then went back into the house
and placed the muzzle, of his re-
vOlver against his temple and pulled
the trigger. making a complete job
of it. Allen lived until the next day
when he died from the effects of his
injuries. Garrison wrote a pitiful
letter to one of the officers at Lords
burg in which he stated that he was
in trouble and feared that he was
losing his mind. He was doing some
contract work on one of the mines of
that section and was good citizen.

Charley Ellis, one of the locomo-

road, had a misunderstanding with
his fireman one day last week with
the result that the fireman struck
him on the head with Il coal pick.
The blow inflicted an ugly wound,
but Mr.. Ellis continued mis- work and
finished the shift. When he arrived
home he soon became sick and the
doctor was called. An examination
revealed the fact that his skull was
badly bruised and he was taken to
the hospital, where an operation was
performed and several pieces of the
skull removed. It is reported that
three pounds more weight to the
blow would have killed him. He is
now getting along nicely and will
soon be out.
