SHERIFF MAKES
CRIME REPORT
FOR PAST YEAR

TOMBSTONE, March 10. - Especial
to The Dispatch) -Reflecting the way
in which law has been administered
in Cochise county, the annual report of
George r. Henshaw, county sheriff,
for the year 1927, is made public.
The report is detailed and shows
among other things that during the
year the sheriff has taken to the
penitentiary So persons; besides which
four persons have been delivered to
the reform school
A fact about the record is that of
this number all but 20 pleaded guilty,
thus saving the county the heavy ex-
pense of over 80 trials. In other cases
trial resulted in convictions.
This list of crimes for which this
large number of persons were con-
demned to prison covers nearly the
whole range of major offenses against
the state laws. While there was only
one conviction during the year for
murder, there were five for assault
with a deadly weapon, eight each for
burglary and forgery; seven for auto
mobile thefts, the same number for
cattle thefts, while there were but two
for horse stealing. Convictions were.

With the filing of nomination papers
by Grover c. Shook, outside labor man
in the labor department of the Copper
Queen smelter, asgcandidate for alder
man from the third ward, political ex-
citement began to flow Saturday and
talk was rife and runor floated about
as to what other candidates would
enter the race and when they would
announce.
w. G. Franklin, present member from
the third ward, approached last eve
ming by q reporter would make no
statement as to his political aspira-
tions. He said "I don't know yet
whether 1 will run for reelection or
not"
At closing time yesterday there were
no additional nomination petitions IN
the hands of the city clerk. While the
general supposition is that Mayor A.
E. Hinton will run for reelection, the
mayor will make no statement. There
are rumors, one that Mayor Hinton
will announce himself shortly for the
state senate and another that he con-
templated entering the race for county
supervisor.
w. j. Reay, councilman from Cne
fourth ward, declined Friday night to
make a statement Reay is street COM
missioner. Franklin, against whom
Shook has declared himself, supposing
that Franklin is a candidate for re-
election, is police commissioner. The
announcement of Shook has been pre-
dicted for some time.
L. L. Speer, councilman from the
first ward, simply smiles when asked
if he will again be candidate. He
is mayor pro tenn and fire commits
sioner. No rumor of opposition in his
ward has been heard.
The other three councilmen, w. w.
Young, Henry Elvey and Richard Jen-
nings are finance commissioners. Jen-
nings is Just recovering from major
operation and expressed himself be-
fore going to the hospital as perfectly
willing to run again, without saying
