state, since the law specifically
states that any city which aspires
to the county seat must be an III
corporated city. Inasmuch as there
are several counties in the state
that have only one incorporated
city and others that have none at
all, notably Mohave county, Mr..
Gibson holds that the law shuts
out these counties from changing
their county seats, and therefore
the measure is class legislation,
and he will appeal to the supreme
tribunal since Judge Baxter has
held to the contrary.

County Seat Law Is
Held Constitutional
And Writ of Prohibition Is
Dissolved by Judge Baxter

Judge Frank Baxter of Yuma
county, has rendered his decision
III the county seat removal election
case, holding as constitutional the
law providing for such election,
and thereby dissolving the writ of
prohibition brought by citizen of
Tombstone against it.
In his decision, which is very
brief, Judge Baxter held that the
law was constitutional, and is re-
reproduced in full:
The Board of Supervisors of
Cochise county (the above-named
respondents) were proceeding un7
der the provisions of Chapter Five
of the regular session of the Second
Legislature of the State, to submit
to the voters of the county the
question of the removal of the
countyseat from the place where it
is now fixed and to determine to
what place the seat shall be re-
moved, when they were restrained
by the order of the court, directing
the issue of an alternative writ of
prohibition.
Respondent moved to set aside
the order and dissolve the writ
demurred to the complaint or peti-
tion of the re1ator and prayed for
dismissal of the action.
The matter came on regularly
to be heard on the 9TH day of Nov
ember, 1917, O. Gibson appearing
in person and also as counsel for
plaintiff or relator and w. P. Mil
Ter, c. V. Manatt, Fletcher M.
Doan and James P. Boyle appear
ing for respondents
Oral and written arguments
The Benson signal., 1917-11-24

and briefs were made and submit
tied by both parties, and the court
took the matter under advisement.
After the consideration of the
facts and authorities in relation to
the matter, and the court being
now fully advised in the premises,
finds as follows:
/. That Chapter Five. of the
regular session of the Legislature
of 1915 is a valid law and not in
conflict with or repugnant to the
constitution.
. 2. That the respondents were
acting regularly in a ministerial
capacity under said law at the time
of the restraint, and were not at
that time subject to the order of
prohibition.
Wherefore, as a conclusion of
law.
1t is hereby ordered that the
order of June II, 1917, directing
the issuance of an alternative writ
of prohibition be and the same is
vacated and set aside and the writ
issued Hereunder is dissolved; that
the demurrer to the petition or
complaint is sustained and the pc
tition or complaint is hereby dis
missed at the cost of the relator.
Dated this 10th day of Novem-
Der, 1917.
FRANK BAXTER, Judge.
Attorney O. Gibson, of Tomb
stone, who instituted the suit as a
taxpayer, and appears for himself,
states that he will appeal the case
to the Supreme court of the state,
believing that the matter was of
sufficient Importance, as affecting
various counties in the state, to
have the law threshed out in the
higher tribunal. He will perfect
his appeal at once.
One of the main points in Mr..
Gibson's contention that the law
is unconstitutional is that it is not
applicable to all counties in the

LABOR CONVENTION.
If Employers Make Unjust Demands,
 Then \. F. of l.. Can Do Nothing.

Buffalo, Nov. 19.-Questions involv- ing the extent of application of the 8-hour day to contracts on govern ment work connected with the war were expected to come before the con- vention of the American Federation here this week.
 Fedora ton leaders were hopeful that no action would be taken that would hamper the spirit of co-opera tion that has, thus far marked the negotiations With President Wilson.
 ''If,' said President Gompers today, "employers in ammunition plants and shipyards make unjust demands on the workers, nothing can be done by the American Federation of Labor to settle strikes.
 II cannot set an arbitrary rule of settlement for such strikes and if I did l could not enforce it. Conditions causing the strike must be considered and their settlement must hinge on cooperation of all the interested par ties
 We will do all we can to CO., operate with the government. My sen timents in this matter are the same as those expressed by President Will son when he spoke at the opening meeting of the federation.
