 few months it won't be any further Tombstone the good road now building than it is to Douglas"
 Miles Merrill of Bsbee ''Of all the fool prOposi- tions before that of removing the county seat from Tombstone l am against it from start to finish In few months we go to Tombstone the new county road in fifty minutes Why put the county seat in Douglas the border! No earth Why throw that good building Tombstone in the discardi No earth and don't need it here in the War ren District"

CITY COUNCIL PAeSEs
 IMPORTANT ORDINANCE es

The mayor and city council met at the city hall last night with a full attendance. the meeting having been postponed from last week. on ac- count of the absence of quorum ance was on the table for considera, tion. primarily the passing of Ordin- ance No 74 establishing a police court for Tombstone. creating the judicial ofice and regulating proceed. ure of same. the notice of which ap pears elsewhere in these columns. Heretofore the city oficials have had their hands tied in many man. ners not having a police court or an officer wno could dispose of viola. tions of the city ordinances in the Iroper manner. and the passing of the ordinance will now give the city ! fnll power to carry out its functions. i Another important matter was the appointment of Dr. W. M Randolph as city health officer. with full and unlimited power in keeping the city 1 clean and sanitary. It is the aim of the officials to make Tombstone one of the cieanest and healthiest cities in the state, and Dr. Randolph as health officer will have full power tc conduct that ofice. causing all violators of the ordinance to be be arrested and prosecuted. The no 'ice Of appointment appears else where.
 Besides passing the Ordinance No. 7f. another ordinance which is sore. ly needed at present was discussed and will come up for passing either at the next regular meeting or at an- other meeting called for the purpose. This will be an ordinance for the Dur. pose of regulating traffic within the city and governing operation of all motor vehicles. The pound ordin- ance covering the regulation Of horses and cattle within the city limits was also discussed and since ! ha ois aIy ha- hn ts c. to be enforced rigidiy. and City Mar shai Bravin was instructed to a, once carry on its mandates.
 Before adjournment the entire council and the Mayor unanimously passed the following resolution: RESOLUTION
 The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Tombstone do adopt the following:
 Whereas, our Country is now on the threshold of the greatest war in its history;
 And. whereas. we feel 1t to be the duty of every citizen. natural born or naturaiized. to show his sympathy with our national cause;
 And. whereas. silent show, of ones sympathy is best made by uufuriing the nag of our country;
 And. whereas. small minority of our citizens have not. within the last few days displayed the Stars and Stripes:
 Therefore. be it resolved that such citizens be advised that if they be financially unable to provide them selves with flag. the City of Tomb stone will be glad to furnish such worthy but unfortunate persons a flag provided they vii! call upon the City Marshal and make known to him their condition.
 GUY c. WEIGH.
 Mayor
 H. l.. HUTCHINSON,
 City Clerk. City Marshal Bravin has been in structed to see that all who cannot afford'a flag shall have one at the CT. pense of the city and undoubtedly this patriotic move on the part of the city dads will meet with hearty ap- proval by the loyal citizens of Old Tombstone.

1879 tons to the acre on his Talent
farm.
