ECHO OF ERNIE JAM ES CASE.

What might be termed all echo of the Ernie James case. which excited so much interest throughout Cochise county a few years ago. was held in the Superior court in Tombstone 10. day. when a suit o. John Hughes vs Mrs. Ernie Hughes, was heard before Judge Lockwood. Hughes is suing Mrs. James for quiet title to certain property in Bisbee, in which she claims a community interest and Hughes is contesting the title.
 Although the presen; suit has no connection with the case, which oc- cured over two years ago, the facts and incidents are recalled as closely allied, It vii be remembered that Hughes took the witness stand in be. half of Mrs. James, who was charged "itH SHVothS aN sidfy fluSueS, uduSu' ter of Hughes. while she was at worS in Bisbee store. The bullet missed and she was arrested and brought to trial for attempt to murder. Hughes abandoning his daughter for Mrs. James, took the stand in her behalf snd testified to many things in her favor and against his daughter and wife. So incensed were the jury that they returned a verdict of guilty and in a signed statement addressed to the court they scored most severely Hughes conduct and attitude.
 The incident created much indigna. tion about the county and especially in Bisbee, where the participants had resided for years. Highes' wife later secured a divorce from him, and Mrs. James. the plaintiff against Hughes .oday, went to the state penitentiary

MRS. JAMES WINS JUDGMENT.

Mrs Ernie James was awarded judgment today against John Hughes in the sum Of sl3OO equity in proper. ty in Bisbee. in a suit which has been under hearing before Judge Locx. wood the past two days in the Su- perior Court
 It appears that several years ago before Hughes and Mrs. James be- came estranged, and while Hughes is alleged to have been living with Mrs. James, although he had a wife and family in Bisbee. Mrs. James bought a piece of property in Warren. M- Hughes putting up the money. and the property was deeded in Mrs James name. the evident intent. it was alleged. to keep the property from becoming community property in which event Hughes wife would claim her share.
 At that time Hughes and Mrs James were on the best of terms and the income from the property was never questioned Not long after. ward. however, Mrs. James took a shot at Mary Hughes. eldest daugh ter Of John Hughes, while she was at work in a Bisbee store claiming Mary was talking about her. She missed her mark. but was convicted in the local superior court and sent up fo- a to 10 year term, but was pardon. ed. Hughes. abandoning his family. testified to save Mrs. James. but the jury scathingly rebuked his actions. Hughes wife later secured a divorce from him. and when Mrs. James emerged from the penitentiary she married another man.
 About this time Hughes claimed his equity in the property in question and Mrs. James refused. claiming 1t was hers and in her name Hughes sued for his one-half equity and the deci. sion of Judge Lockwood today denied his claim. the court evidently believ. ing that man of sound business mind should have taken a -ecelp: for his money as well as cla r his inter.

MORALES CATHOLICS SAY WERE IGNORED
 IN JULY ( FESTIVAL


 NOGALES. July S.-Bitterly resent ing what they declare to be intention al discrimination through committing them from participation in the big three-day Fourth of July border roun up and celebration, the Catholics of Nogales have issued the following statement:
 "To progressive citizens of Nogales with the welfare and advancement of our common community at heart t cannot be but a matter of regret that there should be extant among us an element of narorw-mindednes and prejudice still dominated by the spir- 1t of the dark ages that made sectar- ianism a crime punishable by law and social ostracism.
 By their works ye shall know them" and no plainer indication of a countyfied 'hick' town could be pos 'sibe than the petty prosecutions. by commission of members of the Ca tholic church of this community.
 The particular case of reference is q feature of the local Fourth of July ce,ebration-an all-American annive-- sary in commemoration Of which ev- cry true citizen. regardless Of faith. color. creed or political affiliatiol, takes pride in anticipating. And yet, Catholics, as such were ignored and excluded from what was declared b be a joint demonstration by all local religious denominations.
 An omission of this nature can hardly be considered as unintentional as il is impossible to overlook, other wise than deliberately, a religious de- nomination whose congregation out numbers four to one the combined congregations of all other local churches.
 This is but minor incident as in- dicative of feeling of animosity against d large percentage of our fel low citizens and. while regreiabla, has at least the advantage of being out in the open and undisguised. Gov ertly. the opportunities for petty pe.- eecutions are greater and more num- erous. It is pretty well known tha; for public office in this have been defeated time and again on the grounds of religion alone Is this right or in accordance with the principles Of Amercanism?
 "is there any good reason in civic life for discriminating against Cath olics? The United States govern. ment has but lately declared that there is not. They pay their taxes and in every other way uphold the sacred traditions of Americanism. Records show that Catholics are al. 1 ways among the foremost in respond | ing 10 every and any call Of the cOun- ! try"
