We'll. who was the first white child born in Flagstaff? In last weeks issue we mentioned the marriage of Miss Hochderffer and said she was the first white child born in the, new town of Flagstaff Captain Hochderffer did not say she was the first one. but said "about the first" and our reporter with has usual recklessness said first.
 This statement has set all the old pioneers thinking and many new candidates were brought forth, but no authentic dates were produced. Since it was intimated that The Sun had slapped the truth lightly on the tongue, 1t is necessary to se- cure correct dates. Who was the first white child born in Flagstaff? ? It would be interesting to know and we hope old timers will give US names and dates.

wasa fruitful source Of revenue to
Dodge City in the old days. while it
lasted, harvest Of . few months
bringing together drover and par
chaser, and the army Of cowboys.
The progress Of the drive was al
waps attended with some anxiety on
the part Of the citizen traders in
Dodge City for it meant business as
we'll as hilarity. The trading began
long before the cattle reached town.
A fore runner of the drive used to be
Capt. Dick Head, who would get in
many days ahead Of the cattle, and
his information was always useful,
and would occupy q column or two
in the town papers.
The rapid transformation Of the
cattle range into farms, and Of the
COW camps into beautiful cities may
suggest that cold things are passing
away. and is an interesting chapter
in the history Of progressive civil.

the industry and activity Of an over
flowing population with greater

The recent session Of the Legisl a.

shall be given by the clerk by post
ing notices in three public places

before the meeting, Spearville,
Ford City, and possibly Bucklin,
districts are the enly zones wherein
the change is effective. All other
districts outside OF Dodge City will
hold their meetings on the third
Thursday Of July as usual. The
new law further provides that the
school district meetings shall vote
the necessary amounts to run the
schools and liquidate floating debts,

MOTHER CONTEST SHOWS UP
Other City Officers Were Nomi'

line CITY convention hoiu "Aon""J
night at the court house was one OF
the best attended that has been held
in many years. Apparently there
were no candidates working for the
places, but there seemed to be some
thing doing for certain. During the
day some one prevailed upon Fred
Gardner to allow his name used as q
candidate for mayor, and it was
understood for some time before that
A. Gluck's name would be presented
for that office. During the afternoon
things got stirred up amazingly and
the result was full house when the
convention was called to order.
The cause Of most Of the agitation
seems to have been fight that was
being made on the city marshal. Mr..
Gluck was sent for but he refused to
be "seen". Mr.. Gardher no doubt
consented 10 run in good faith, and
not as a candidate in favor OF any
certain city marshal. In fact it is
learned upon pretty good authority
since, that Mr.. Gardner and Mr..
Gluck have about the same views on
the city marshal question. A great
r,apy when the convention began
did not know that Mr.. Gardner was
to be a candidate, and it proved that
the majority present had gone to
support Mr.. Gluck, and carried out
their intentions.
When the house was filed, MIR.
Lillis, who had been noticeably busy
during the day, raised his hand and
silenced the multitude, aud the con-
yention began. Mr.. Hoover was
made chairman Of the meeting, Mr..
Schall secretary, a form Of rules and
order Of business was adopted as
sistants were chosen to help handle
the fusiIade Of ballots, and the meet
ing was ready to nominate candi-
date for mayor. Mr.. Kirkpatrick
presented the name Of Fred Gardner
and L. A. Madison put Adolph Gluck
into the running.
The court house was jammed by
this time. It was perhaps impossible
for everybody to vote, but after long
drilling the greater part Of the crowd
had deposited a ballot. In all 266
ballots were cast, and Of these MIR.
Gluck received 164 and Mr.. Gardner
1O2. Mr.. Gluck was called in and
made very short talk.
There was no excitement over the
rest Of the ticket the present officers
being nominated to succeed them
selves, as follows: r. W. Evans Jr.,
for Police Judge; Henry Kinkead'
for City treasurer; and Chas. States
for treasurer Of the School Board.
The different wards held caucuses
following, and nominated the follow
ing tickets. First ward. Peter Mootz
for councilman; R. s. Robinson and
Ed Gingrich, members School Board.
Second ward: J. W. Sidlow,
councilman; D. q. Jones member OF
School Board.
Third ward: J. Miller. member
council; Chas. Argabright, member
