Remove the County Seat.

1t is clearly evident to even a
casual observer that the gang of
conspirators in the court house at
Holbrook, and their little circle
of benefciaries, have long since
decided that the county govern
ment was maintained strictly for
their financial profit and private
graft. To them the taxpayers
in other sections of the county
have no rights, and if they ask
for any consideration, they are
given to understand they are pre-
sumptiouS 'nterlopers, unless the
gang car discern something in
it for them. There is only one
way to meet this condition sue
cessfully, and that is to remove
the county seat where public SEN
timent is strong enough to COM
pei a decent regard to the rights
of all the people. The complaint
against the present existing con-
ditions is not confined to any one
locality, but is general all over
the county, where the observing
have seen their only functions in
the county government has been
the paying of taxes, while all the
benefits went only where the
gang decided satellite had to be
rewarded. To enter a protest
or criticize their high-handed
methods brings down their wrath
on the head of the offender. 1t
is time conditions were changed,
and a vote this fall on county
seat removal should be taken up
for consideration at once.

The passing away of SO many
Of Winslow's pioneers suggests
to our mind the organization of
an old settlers society, with a
fixed term of years residence as
a qualification for membership.
While we still have some old pio-
neers with US, they should organ
ize and make permanent records
that can be handed down to the
generations that will come after
to perpetuate the society. A lit
tie social intercourse once or twice
a year between old settlers will
be not only interesting to them,
but instructive to others. Such
an organization might be made
county wide, with added inter-
est and enthusiasm.

The board of supervisors have
purchased Judge Sapp's law IL
brary, paying $1,000 of the coun-
tvs good money for the same.
How do the supervisors know
they got value received? Did
they get an opinion as to the val
ue of the library from any law
yer, except County Attorney Jor-
dan, before making the pur-
chase? Why did they buy the
library? Was it because Judge
Sapp wanted to unload the junk
and the county was made the
@oat? Judge Sapp probably ex-
poets to enter the law practice
again soon, no doubt, and will
need a library, so why did he
sell the one he had. These Dues
tions may be impertinent, but
the taxpayers ought to have the
right to know the inside Of the
deal, and if it is not forthcoming
payment of the warrant should
be enjoined. The number of
volumes has no bearing on the
actual value Of a Law library, as
many of the books may be obso-
lete, and others may have little
actual value in Arizona, while
others may be broken series of
reports, legislative proceedings,
ancient territorial statutes and
congressional records. We don't
blame Judge Sapp for unloading
his library on the county in eX-
change for 1900 good, hard dol
lars of the taxpayers money
when the chance offered. But
the supervisors did not manifest
any business ability IN the deal.
Why did not the supervisors call
in committee of lawyers to ex-
anime the library, and report on
it's real value. The library may
be worth $4,000, and the county
obtained rare bargain, but the
way the deal has gone through
we are skeptical.

 Seeing ". s. Purselley's letter in the Tribune calls my thoughts back to Carroll county, as he was one of our best friends. We lived on Dry Creek near the H. M. Reeves home. 1 can say that many times ] have regretted leaving that country for there certainly are some as good peo- pie there as one will find any where. We left Carroll county in 1900 and drove through to West Texas, where we had two severe drouths, then we came to North Central Texas.
