WANTED IN CASE
HERE. FOR YEARS

Ralph Longnecker Arrested
! In Texas and Returned
To Face Court
1 Sheriff George R. Henshaw offered
proof that the arm of the law is long-
I yesterday when Omar A. Ash. deputy
! for the Douglas district, stepped off
the train here accompanied by Ralph
E. Longnecker, who will be remembered
i by many in Douglas as a firemen on
I the El Paso and Southwestern rail-1
j road before the merger. |
, Ash, armed with papers showing that
Longnecker is wanted for contempt of
the Cochise county superior court in
matters growing out of a charge of
abandonment of his minor children,
went to Sweetwater, Texas, where
Longnecker was arrested and where he
signed a piper waiving extradition and
agreed to return to Douglas with the
officer.
Longnecker, who is divorced from
Mrs. Buelah Longnecker of this city,
related upon arriving here yesterday
afternoon that he has since married a
woman who formerly resided here and
in Tucson. He expressed regret that
he had not seen his three children
who are here with his former wife
and said that his intention had been
to return i-nd “do something for the
children.”
, Sheriff Henshaw related that the ar
i rest of Longnecker was the culmina
tion of a search that has been carried
on quietly for nearly two years. He
said that a number of times inquiry
had disclosed that Longnecker had left
cities just before the search reached
them. Deputy Ash related that a car
belonging to LongnVrker or to the
present Mrs. Longnecker, which he saw
! at Sweetwater, has an Oklahoma li
! cense which he said indicated to him
I that the pair had been in that state
since Longnecker left here.
I Sheriff Henshaw, after taking his
! prisoner before Deputy County Attor-
I ney B. G. Thompson here for ques
i tioning, rembved the man to the ;
| Tombstone jail. Just what the charge ;
jof contempt of court constitutes in j
j this base was not known here yes- i
terday. but it is supposed that the i
| contempt is constituted by the failure i
; of the man to provide for his children i
as the orders of the court had di- j
reeted. He said yesterday that he had |
l ne t provided for them for a long time. ;
Deputy Ash, on his swift trip to ;
! Texas after the man was armed with :
i a document signed by Sheriff Hen
, shaw stating that Longnecker was
| wlanted on charges constituting a
, felony and that if he refused to return
freely the proper steps Would be taken
to extradite. Deputy Ash presented
! this paper first to the sheriff at Sweet
- water and later to his prisoner so that
Longnecker, desiring to make short
i work of the matter, waived extradi-
I tion.
I o
Express Agent Here
i C. B. Winn, traveling commercial
agent for the American Railway
Express, was in Douglas yesterday
calling upon the business men in
. the interest of his company.

MANY REGISTER
FOR VOTE WHEN
ELECTION IS HED
i The various registration officers
over the city who have been appoint-1
ed to register the voters tor the city i
election reported a land office busi-j
ness yesterday and while no check j
was made to determine the numbers
registered it is estimated that as
many as 500 registered on Friday. !
With the nominations closing on
March 28 and no opposition having
developed except in the aldermanic
field in three wards little special in- 1
centive to vote is ottered the public
but the campaign carried on here the
past lew years to impress the voter;
with his duty and privilege as a
citizen in casting a ballot in every
election is bearing fruit, observers
believe, in an increased registration.
The fact that nominations have
closed does not mean that additional
candidates may not enter the race
for one may become a candidate at
the primaries if sufficient voters
write his name in on the ticket
for one party or another, it is not
anticipated that any additional can
didates will enter.
