Morenci, Ariz.

the Office OF Justice of the peace
Mr.. Catlin's opinions of the meaning
of the office of justice, and the man
ner of conduct are definite. An idea
of the operation of the office in case
of his election may be readily infer
red. His opinions in this respect
briefly stated are: The office was
created by law for the purpose OF
maintaining the peace and good order
accomplish this end the official is
empowered by law to enforce a fine
upon any offender who may commit
any offence disturbing the communi-
tvs peace. But the fine which is
imposed is not intended by the state
as reprisal nor as ervenge for the
offense committed, but is intended
solely for the purpose of lettering the
offender from repeating the offense,
and also as a warning to others to
desist from like offenses. Therefore,
a justice when trying an offender
should consider only the amount of
necessary to deter the offender from
repetition. And the fine thus i'm
posed should not be considered as a
source of revenue to the state. Mr..
Catlin is of the belief that tact, es-
pecially in the case of youthful offend
ers, and in case of their first being
brought before the court, should be
followed, as the irreprssible nature
of the boy should be considered with
good judgment by the justice, and all
means taken that would insure the
Offenders following the lawful rule of
conduct. Severity in such cases. can
be easily resultant of confirming the
youth in crime. Mr.. Catlin has long
been a citizen of Morenci, where he
has held positions of trust, has al
ways been a staunch democrat, and
his following among the citizens is
gratifying.

Base Ball.

Base Ball.
A crowd of about 200 rea 1base ball
fans saw another good ball game on
the local athletic grounds last Sun
day afternoon, when the Morenci
team met the Clifton team and de-
feated them in an eleven inning
/ game with a score of to 6.
| The game opened with Pete Cuaron
in the box for Morenci and when the
dust cleared at the end of the first
half the Clifton boys had garnered
four runs to their credit. 1t looked
like a sad wa1k-awaH and the usual
crys of take him out were heard.
But Cuaron knew his arm was good
and demonstrated the fact in the fol-
lowing three innings, when he fan
ned them in one, two, three, order.
In Morenci's half of the second in
ming they put four runs safely over
the plate tieing the score. In the
ninth inning Clifton finally tied the
score with one run, but the game
was quickly ended in the tenth in
ming when Morenci gathered the
winning run Weeks a new man
on the Clifton team pitched a fair
game of ball allowing only eight
hits and had he little better sup
port a closer game may have been
seen. 1t must be noted however, that
these two teams are playing good ball,
better base ball in fact than can be
seen in many of the smaller eastern
leagues. The local team is in
better condition this year than it has
been for years, as the players are
enthusiastic and a covering their posi-
lions like old timers. Substantial do
nations have also been provided for
the team by both the Arizona Copper
company and The Detroit Copper Min
ing company, SO that the two teams
will provide a seasons amusement for
the base ball loving public
