Twelve persons were given employ
ment last week by the municipal la
Dor bureau in the city hall, accord
ing to report made public WeGnes-
day by City Recorder Rase. A short
age of brick layers is noted in the
report, and the general labor condi-
tion is said to be good. Most larm
jobs are filled, and the majority of
men employed were given positions
in the city. Men were placed at work
farming, tractor driving, janitor work,
tile making, general work, and in
mills.
We have good position for a man
who is not afraid of work and will
take interest in his work. Charles r.

No Notwithstanding River Britge.

All prospect for the erection

river near Fort Mill jointly by
York and Mecklenburg counties
during the present year was dis
sipated Tuesday at a meeting of
the county commissioners of the
two counties at the site on the
river where it was proposed to
build the bridge when the
Mecklenburg commissioners an
nounced that they could not
agree to pay two-thirds the cost
Of the structure, including the
approaches. The site which the
York commissioners insisted upon
Is in the Buster" Boyd bottoms
and they refused to consider a
proposition to erect the bridge
at point farther up the stream.
The acts of both the South Caro-
lima and North Carolina legis-
latures provided that York county
pay one-third the cost of the
bridge and that Mecklenburg
pay the other. .two-thirds, York's
total appropriation for the struc-
ture amounting to $37, 600.

FOR ALDERMAN

Frank j. Duffy, candidate for
alderman on the Democratic
ticket is a native of the EN-
pire state, coming to Arizona
in 1888, Immediately after
graduating from college. Like
other great men of America he
was born and raised on the
farm. He came to Nogales in
1893, and has since that time
made this city his home.
He has held such county Of
fees as assessor, county at
torney and Judge of the Su-
perlor Court, and has served
one term on the town board; in
all of which offices he made
good with a capital G.
Mr.. Duffy is one of the
prominent attorneys of the
state, his practice extending
lar beyond the bounds of Santa
Cruz county. He is a sterling
citizen, and when elected TO
the board of aldermen will give
the city a fair administration
without fear or favor.
Judge Duffy has acquired a
home and other interests in
Nogales, but unlike other
wealthy citizens of this CITY.
has considered an investment in
the proper education of hts
children of more real value to
himself, his family and the
community than the mere ac-
quiring of worldly goods.
His daughter Miss Mary
Duffy, is a graduate of the
Northern Arizona State Normal
School, and is now filling a
position as teacher in the pub
DC schools of Nogales. His
SON Francis, is now a senior in
the University of Arizona. and
will graduate next month as a
inning engineer. This ideal
probably indicates the real value
CT the man to the community
more than any other one thing.
He is above petty politics,
and believing in the future
greatness of the CITY, will do
everything in his power as an
alderman to foster and promote
its growth along modern and
progressive lines.
