A. T. Thompson Files Petition Before Judge Lewis Asking for Ten. porary E Injunction Against Board of
 Supervisors
Supervisors

[ On Thursday of this week a tempor-
 ary injunction suit was filed in the of : flee of the district coura clerk praying
 for the issuance of an injunction against the board of supervisors of Greenlee county restraining the b9ard l from taking any further steps looking
 toward the construction Of a court Ehouse upon the site selected by the boord.J
 l The papers in the case were signed by A. T. Thompson. a citizen and tax
 pay CT of Greenlee county, and several causes for the application for the in junction are set up. The petition re- cites that hefOre the board selected a site on Hills'addition they were offered a suitable site free of charge by the A rizona Copper Co. and deed free of charge covering this site, located on the east side of Clifton, was offered to the board.
 Another allegation in the complaint upon which an injunction is asked for
 is that the title to the site selected by the board is not clear and that the deed from Henry Hill and his wife, Rose Hill, conveying the title to the site for the court house, was not prop erly executed and that said Hill and
 his wife did not have the legal right 1 to transfer to the county said site. ] It is further alleged that at the Oc-
 tober meeting of the board E.C.H Heck
 of Clifton presented plans for the building of a court house and jail which were mot complete which were accepted by the board and he was
 awarded q premium by the board Of
 Five Hundred dollars without requir-
 ing him to furnish bond in the sum
 Of Five Thousand dollars for the con- struction Of the court house according
 to his plans and specifications, at a cost
 not to exceed Fifty Thousand dollars.
 The petitioner further states that the
 plans are now incomplete and thata
 draughts man in Fl Paso, since the ad journment of the board at its October meeting, has been engaged to draw a
 complete set of plans and is so engag
 ed at present. It is also set up in the
 complaint that the board of super vis- ors has threatened to award the build ing Of the court honse to E C.Heck | On Fridayevening service upon the board had not yet been secured. The hearing of the case was set for Satur- day mornfng.

An AID 70 THE CONSUMER.

Advices from Des Moines state tnat
the food and dairy department mas
completed it's work of fixing standard
set Of weights and measures and Will
be ready soon to enforce the law gov
erning weights and measures passed
byx the last general assembly. The new
law provides that IF any person en-.
gagged in the purchase or sale OF
merchandise or other commodities by
weight or measurements be FOUND
having in his place. Of business any
scales, weights, measures or other
apparatus which does not conform TO
the standards of weight and measure
ment of this state, he shall be guilty
OF misdemeanor and for the first Of
tense shall be fined not less than $40
nor more than 500, and for each subse-
auent offense, not exceeding $500, or
Imprisonment in the county jail not ex-
ceeding ninety days" Through It's
enforcement the consuming public will
be guaranteed full weight and full
measure on their purchases, something
that has been largely let to guess work
in the past. 1t took the people long
time to find out that bushel measure
does not always measure bushel. A
heaping bushel measure OF apples or
potatoes put on, the scales will fire.
ouently fall far short of reaching the
required bushel weight. The purchase

formity, as made possible under the
new law, will give guarantee OF full

An IOWA TARIFF VIEW.

Is It fair to shoulder onto the tariff
the blame for our own Wastefulness
and Incidence? This question is asked
by the Manchester Qowa) Press in an
article which shows the part ,extrava-
gance has played in increasing the
cost of living The Press says:
i, "A good republican said to us the
other day: IF the tariff is RESPONSE
BILE for the high cost Of sliving..I am
for its reduction, and it can't come
any too quickly to suit me-"
It has become a popular pastime to
make a. goat of the tariff. 1t is blamed
for all the ills of life, from the jump
in diamonds to an attack of the
shingles. But other things may have
something to do with it. For in
stance:
Incidence and luxury have increased
In this country out of all proportion to
the incomes Of the people. Twenty
years ago it was the rarest thing in
the world to find shoe.shining
"parlor'' outside of the largest cities.
They are now in every hamlet, and
thousands of men and boys do nothing
else. There are probably not less
than fifty in the city of Des Moines,
all doing a thriving business. Men
are too lazy or too proud to shine their
own shoes and have bred new In
dustry.
Nothing used to be thought of it if
man or woman was seen with a
bundle going to or from the market.
Now everything must be delivered to
the house. 1t is almost impossible to
persuade pert young chap or a pretty
girl to be seen on the streets with a
package Somebody else must do the
work and father pays the freight.
The towns and cities are full of
moving picture shows, nickelodeons,
vaudeville, 10, 20 and 80 cent theaters.
whole families 60, night after night,
and follow it up with little supper
that consumes days wages. The
marks are crowded and the street car
takes its toll. Nobody thinks OF
walking for two blocks nowadays If ne
is anywhere near car line. The old
fashioned wife who used to press her
husbands and children's clothes has
gone out Pantoriums have sprung up
and taken her place. The girl of 1890
who would expect to wear silk stock
tngs and petticoats and the boyswho
demanded five or six suits of clothes
wear would have been considered
crazy, but now they are as common as
pinch bugs in June. Everything eat
able must be dressed and trimmed up
nowadays. People want their crackers
in a pink box, with a picture of a
ballet dancer or pugilist on the cover,
and they not only pay for the box when
they buy the crackers but they get
fewer crackers. The grocery stores
are filed with expensive novelties and
corrections, which go like hot cakes.
A few years ago oysters and grape
fruit and oranges out of the season
and cantelopes and ice cream were
considered Injuries, They are on
every table now every day. The young
man who doesn't take his girl 60-cent

here to say that a nine-inch slab of
pumpkin pie, washed down with cider
vinegar and dill pickles, will make a
section hands stomach sit UP and take
notice. The man who clasps cold
pumpkin pie to his bosom on an empty
stomach and survives the ordeal will
never need a massage for his digestive
apparatus.
The alleged milk-fed spring chicken
is bigger joke than the civil service
laws. The man who attempts to bring
up his chickens on the bottle will
need more rubber tubing than foun-
tain syringe and as many points of
contact as a mechanical mixer. While
1t Is true that diet of lobbered milk
has steered many a pulling pullet
safely through the teething period, its
use is not to be recommended, as it is
liable to introduce hiccoughs into the
hennery. Stick to the good old bill of
fare of sharp sand and ground glass.

Father buys porterhouse steak where
a piece off the neck used to look good
to him. Nobody thinks of keeping his
own horse or COW or planting his own
garden or digging his own potatoes.
The most popular song Of the era is
Let Somebody Else Do the Work.
The automobile has cost it's thousands
where the tariff has cost it's tens. A
man can't ride distance of fifty miles
without patronizing the parlor car
Nobody thinks of carrying a lunch on
the train if there is dining car any
where on the division. The man who
wears the same necktie two days in
succession is called rube and the
woman who can't show up half dozen
party dresses. costing from $40 to $50
per, has about as much show in the
society push as shoat. People used
to have their shoes half-soled. Now
they wear them until the gloss is
dimmed then throw them into the
attic. The $3.50 electric vacuum cleaner
has pushed the broom off the map, and
the electric fan and ironer have put
the palm leaf and the sad-iron out Of
business. Thus ad infiniturn.
While your neighbor IS GUESSING the
tariff for the high cost of living, re.
mind him of these things and ask him
If Jim Hills definition, "the cost Of
high living" isn't closer to it. Nobody
wants to go back to the old ways. All
of these things mean better happier
living, more ease, more recreation,
more leisure, better meals, more
beautiful homes. But is it fair to
shoulder onto the tariff the blame for
our own wastefulness and Incidence?

THE PRIMARY.

''Why not be frank enough to admit
the plain truth that the primary opens
the door to the rich ard slams it in
the face of the poor?" This question
is asked by the Chicago Inter Ocean
in an editorial dealing with tlc inves-
tigation of the expenditure of 100000
by Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin,
for a seat in the United States senate.
The Inter Ocean says it has no idea
how the investigation will end, but
that it does know direct primary
campaign for governor or senator in
state Of the size of Wisconsin always
costs ~ least 100000.
People might as we'll get the idea
out of their heads that the direct prim-
airy is poor mans measure" The
Inter Ocean adds: 1T is the most ex-
pensive measure that has ever yet
been devised in the politics of re-
public.

man who hasn'tSa great lot of money.
or whose friends haven't it for him,
must stay out Of it.
"The Yates primary campaign for
governor in Illinois cost more than
100000. And not cent was i'm
properly spent.
cat the same time, Governor De-
mems primary campaign required, in
addition to the patronage which his
high office conferred, the expenditure
of at least $150,000 And we believe
Governor Deneen will admit that he
spent no more than he had to.
"The Merriam primary campaign in
Chicago-not in the whole state of I'LL
nois, but in a single city of Illinois
cost over 100000.
"For candidate to canvass whole
state and send his friends into every
county of the state to pay bands, to
hire halls, to maintain headquarters,
to meet postage and printing bills,
to use billboard space-all this costs
a lot of money. 1t costs more money
than the average. man imagines, or
than any man in moderate circum-
stances can possibly pay"
Last year the international balloon
race started IL ST. Louis and ended be-
yond the great lakes. This year the
race started in Kansas City and all
the balloons descended in Wisconsin
and Iowa. This moves the st. Louis
Times to say that while it has mo
disposition to withhold our sympathy
from Kansas City and the balloonists
who recently began a race from that
town. it still seems perfectly proper
Historians may disagree as to the
exact part played by Mrs. O'Leary's
COW in causing the great Chicago fire
of 1871, but there is no argument over
the enormous loss caused by the blaze
that swept Chicago forty years ago.
Today. the anniversary of the fire. is
being observed in Illinois as fire
prevention day and a program has
been arranged to show Chicago that
it is not too late to heed the lesson
taught by that disaster

Fairfield Ledger.-A colored man,
named Dow was tried for murder at
Creston. He admitted the killing but
said that it was done in self-defense.
He was the only witness to the crime
and his story was the only actual
evidence, but a jury freed him. Dow
had been resident of Creston for
thirty years; he had been employed
by dry goods store much of that
time, carried the keys to the house,
had access to the money drawer and
frequently did the banking for the
store. He was able to prove his hon.
esty, his sobriety and to show that he
had no enemies except the man he
killed, and a jury turned him loose.
