Builders OF fats and dwellings in the

Money is becoming SO plentiful that
home builders can get any reasonable

work needed during the past year was
not undertaken because the panic had
taken money away from the building

CAPT. WHEELER WINS
THE RIFLE TROPHY
First Contest Of Bisbee Rifle
Club Brought Out Good
Crowd.

The Bisbee Rife Club held its in
itial contest Sunday on the Warren
District Country Club range.
There was very little wind and the
range officers had the targets, pits
and firing line in good shape so
everything moved along with snap
and vim.
Capt. Harry Wheeler, of the Ari-
iona rangers carried of all the hon
ors at bota distances and won the
Henkel trophy. Captain Wheeler pre-
scented the cup to the committee to
be shot for again by the members
of the club under conditions satisfae-
tory to himself, the committee and
c. NJ. Henkel.
The spectators had good laugh at
many OF the riflemen when firing~ az
the 500 yard target commenced, for
none of the rifles being sighted for
that distance a frenzied adjustment
of sights was necessary and to the
chagrin of the conte stants the mo
score" flag waved with perfect regu-
larity.
However, a big Improvement was
noticed in the second practice. The
committee announces that next week
the score flags and disks will be
made plain to everyone and they hope
the spectators will pardon this over
sight.
Below are the best scores out of
a possible twenty-five made by the

INTEREST TAKEN "a.
IN BOND Project

The matter OF RSsu7ng bonds to
raise money wherEwith tot carry on
public improvements which will make
or Blsbee a modern city in every re-
spect, which was first brought up at
an informal meeting of the city coun
Gil on Saturday night has been widely
discussed throughout the city since
that time and the proposition seems
to be meeting with favor on all sides.
There We're some who were under
the impression that under the law the
proposed bond issue could not be
made, but in a statement to a Re
view man yesterday City Attorney
George Nea1e made it clear that the
city has got the right to issue bonds
for the purposes stated
In speaking of the matter Neale
said:
"On account of the fact that amend
ments to different laws are frequently
made by congress Iayman is gener-
ally confused in regard to these mat
ters. In the first place under the
amendment to section 65 Of the or
ganic act city of Bisbee's class IS
enutitled to issue bonds for sanitary
and road improvements and the cob
above the four per cent bond issue
allowed Tor general purposes. 1t is
the intention of the city council to
use this money for the improvements
of the highways, the establishing of
adequate fire protection. and extension
of the sewerage system, all of which
objects plainly come within the pro
visions Of the amendment
''If it were not for these objects the
city would have no right to issue
bonds for any more than four per
cent OF its assessed valuation"
1t was the wish of the city council
and Mayor Caven to have the matter
taken up by the people and discussed
in its various phases so that fun
knowledge of the advantages to be OBJ
tanned would be generally had, and
the project would receive general sup
port. Unusual public interest is al

MORMONS ONLY
ONES LIABLE
UNDER THE LAW
So Alexander Practically Says
In Letter Requesting Dismis-
sal Criminal Action Against
Mrs. StanaWay.

In accordance with the motion com
municated to United States Commits
sioner Stanford few days ago by j..
l.. B. Alexander, United States attor-
ney for Arizona, the, case against Mrs.
Mary Stanaway, in which the defend
ant was charged with a violation of
the Edmunds act, was dismissed in the
federal court when it came up for
hearing yesterday morning, and copy
of the prosecuting attorneys letter
was filed as a part of the record.
Nothing was known of the reason
for the dismissal of the case until
yesterday, when AleXander's letter
was filed as a part of the court record.
and great surprise was then express.
ed. After stating in the opening por-
ton of his letter to the commissioner
that he had come to the conclusion
that there was an Hlterior motive on
the part of the complainants, because
of the fact that they were residents of
Bisbee instead of Tucson, where the
offense is alleged to have been conn
mitted, Alexander goes on to explain
his understanding or the law.
The peculiar construction placed on
the law by the United States district
attorney in which he practically says
that he will prosecute no one under
it unless they are of Mormon faith
or the facts in the case are notorious,
is best shown in his own language,
which Is as follows:
"As ] understand the purpose of the
Edmunds-Tucker Act, it was enacted by
congress primarily for the purpose of
suppressing the practices of the sect
known as the Mormons in the terri
tories of the United States. How
ever, the law is general in its terms
and is applicable to Gentiles as well
as Mormons. With that view of the
purpose of the statute, l have hesitat-
ed and in many instances have re-
fused to take up violations of this act
on the part of the citizens of the ter
ritory who are not Of the Mormon
faith. except in cases where the de-
cency of the community in which said
violations occur has been offended. or
where the cases are fragrant and no
torioUs and the local officers of the
communities in which these offenses
occur have wilfully neglected to prose
cute these cases under the territorial
statute. and being of the opinion that
the present case does not fall within
the exception above stated and that
no one is complaining of the act where
the same is alleged to have been com.
mitted, but il the act was committed
at all. it was done secretly and COM
mitted but once, 1 feel that the gov
eminent should not be called upon TO
prosecute it,. and thereby entail ex-
pense in its prosecution"
Giving these as his reason, the
United States district attorney re-
quested that the case against Mrs.
Mary Stanaway and d. w. Semple be
dismissed without even a preliminary
hearing
