Taylor, oi Gleeson, arrived in the city yesterday by automobile, and showed some sam, ples Of the counterfeiter's art that are being circulated around Gleeson and Courtland. A number of business men looked at the fake bank notes and to their trained eyes the imita- tions appeared to be transparent fakes. but less careful people would call them fair limitations. that are apt 10 delude and snare. The notes ap- pear to be a pen and ink sketch of the real thing.
 MT. Taylor brought a severely wounded automobile to the city. En route from Gleeson. he ran into a wagon and damaged the front axle of his car and punctured q tire. He travelled the remainder Of the trip al slow speed, and arriving here, sent the damaged auto the the garage for repairs.

MT Beauchamp said that never at any time had the TTansvaal company been molested in any way by the revolutionary troubles. Work is being continued on the property and has been all the time for more than two years and at present the force is composed of from 75 to 100 men and results are most satisfactory. Said MT. Beauchamp:
 The Mexicans at Cumpas and in that vicinity are loyal 10 the consti- tutional government of Madero. they are busy with their crop work and other industries and hear very little of the trouble that seems to be the sole topic of interest along the bord- CT The crops this year will be the best and largest produced in that country for years, especially is this true On what are known as the

Another bill that is Of interest is also proposed by MT Lynch. This is House bill No. 7j and provides for the election of supervisors from districts instead of at large as is now done. This bill directs the division of all counties into three supervisoral dis tricts to be designated by numbers. Such districts are to be made as near ly equal as possible. in population and taxable wealth and each district is 10 vote for one member Of the board of supervisors. lt is of course conjectur- al how the board in this county will go about the matter should this bill lass, for here the greater part Of both taxable property and of population is to be found in the extreme souther- ly end Of the county. in the Warren district and in Douglas

 The people of Guadeloupe canyon are worried over the presence. of such a large band Of instructors in their immediate neighborhood as they all own horses and cattle. There are not many settlers in the canyon and the ranches are located quite a distance apart American soldiers now stationed at the Slaughter ranch have extended their patrol into the canyon.

COUNTY DIVISION WORKERS HAVE NOT
 GIVEN UP PROJECT
Wilcox Delegation Present Their Plans to the
 Douglas Club
WILL KEEP WORKING

Much disappointed al not having Ob- tained the endorsement Of the War ren District Commercial club and the people of Bisbee 10 their project for county division yet not discouraged, the visiting Wilcox delegation left for Douglas yesterday noon to present their claim at meeting which was held there last night.
 Before leaving Bisbee H. A. Morgan. who was spokesman for the .delega- ton at the meeting on Wednesday evening talked further Of the project with a represe entatiye Of the Review. We will not give up yet said he We will go on working for division and at the same time seeking to an- tagonize TO one. The condition is nm bearble foT our people and in the end 1t must be changed. If We do not ger division now we will later
 MT. Kemp in speaking of present conditions said that 1t is especially hard on the farmer who wants to go to the county seat. Srch people usually have bacon, flour and vegeta- bles in the house but little ready money. They therefore hesitate to pay out car fare but harness d horse 10 a buggy lay in sorne provisions and start to drive. From the vicinity Of Wilcox to Tombstone necessitates a three day drive. With only T day spent at the county seat and a three days drive hack a week has been consumed.
 Tombstone Not Wanted
 It developed at the meeting on Wednesday evening that neither end of the county wants Tombstone in it's limits It $ conceded that the historic old town has an advantage over any community that seeks the county seat, heing now in possession. It IS ad- initted that # will be difficult to cb- tain the legislation that will permit removal Hence each end of the coun- ty wants the other to take Tombstone of is hands
 The visiting delegation stated that Senator Roberts did not oppose a di- vision along the lines which they pro- posed but would oppose 6 division along irregular lines such as would be necessary to throw the present county seat into the proposed new county.
 A telephone message received from the Benson board of trade stated that there the sentiment was unanimous against the Wilcox project.

HE WOULD REDUCE SALARY PAID ID
 DEPUTY SHER|FFS
Mir. Lynch Thinks S1OO Per Month Enough in First
 Class Counties
TWO OTHER MEASURES

 If House bill No. 72. introduced by Representative Lynch. shall become a law it will likely be difficult for such communities as Bisbee. Lowell, Doug las, Clifton and Morenci and other places where the wage paid to labor is good to obtain satisfactory deputy shcTiifs. The bill referred to Is in tended to fix the salaries of county and precinct officers and for counties Of the first claes limits the salary to be paid to deputy sheriff to $166 per month.
 The provision relating to the sher- ifis office in Mir LyRch's bill is as follows: By and with the consent of the board Of supervisors the sheriff in counties of the first and second class shall appoint one under sheriff who shall receive a, salary not to exceed $500 per year; ;gand as many deputies as shall be necessary to properly per form the business of his office; bus in no case shsal the salary of any such deputy exceed S10O per month.
 Whether the sheriff of Cochise county would be able to obtain the
  at such a figure Is open to much doubt. The hours of a deputy sheriff are very irregular. He may be said to be always op the job, sleeping or waking, for there is no telling when he will be called upon to perform the duties entailed by his position. The man employed at other work has his hours of labor limited, has time 10 himself, while the deputy would be no better paid and in no way would he be his own master.
 Fix Justices Salaries.
 This bill provides for a redistricting of the counties into precincts and for the fixing Of salaries Of precinct Of- ficers. In this respect the provision reads: On the first Monday Of Sep tember. 1912, the boards of super visors of the several counties Of the state shall meet aJ the county seats and redistrict their counties into jus tice of the peace precincts and shall ix the compensation of justices of the peace and constables whose precincts include cities or towns or any part of a city or town" The redistrietinS shall become effective on January l, 1913. All justice precincts, now as- tabllshed are then abolished. A pro vision is contained for the election of justices and constables at the next election. that is to be held in No yember of this year.
 In fixing the salar.es Of justices the supervisors are to be governed by the number of votes that were cast at the election. Where 1000 or more votes were cast the bill provides for d salary not to exceed si5O per month and from goo to 1000 the salary is not to be in excess of s125 per month. Where more than 300 and less than 300 votes were cast. the salary may be $100. Smaller precincts are to pay S75 or $50. The supervisors are to meet in December and fix the salaries On the basis of votes cast at the No vember election It may be that it is intended that oonstables shall receive the same salaries as justices for there are no figures given to govern
