PRECINCT OFFICERS
 ARE DETERMINED
Will Carry Case Now Before Superior Court to High
 Court If Necessary

Local precinct officers continue 10 express the opinion that the precinct fight win undoubtedly be won by them. The case is now before the superior court at Tombstone and a decision will be handed down Janu. agy 9. As fae as taking the ca SC tC the suTreme court is concerned the action of the superior court on the injunction will make no SE.erence, as the matter will be taken to the supreme court for decision m any e. ent
 It'fs planned to bring the injJnc- ton to the supreme court as soon as possible and local precinct officers believe that this will be done within a day after the decision of the su- perior court It is said that. if this is done. the matter will be definitely settled by he supreme court not later than January 15. The court will be called upon to decide whether the injunction restraining the boards of supervisors from appointing or re- districting shall be permanent or shall be auashed.
 Cochise county. precinct officers are bearing the bTunt of the fight. By far the larger amount of money to hire attorneys and carry on the fight has been raised here and those who are conducting the fight state that very little assistance has come rom outside counties. In fact, it now ap- pears that this county will bear the whole brunt of the fight, although should the court decide in favor of the precinct officers, every precinct officer in the state would be directly benefited.

to retirement Mr.. Lightcap, one Of
the train officials who has become
SO widely known and who, per-
haps, had a greater travelling ac-

one Of those men whose lives seem

his goings and comings along the

Now he has retired and lie on .
