Arizona Sunday Bill Defeated

THE Tombstone (Arizona) Epitaph of March 9 says of the Sunday bill, which we have elsewhere mentioned:—

“The Sunday-Rest bill has been laid to sleep for two years at least. The vote making the bill the special order for the evening was considered, and the bill passed in the council some days since was taken up in the House this afternoon, and killed by a vote of fourteen to nine. There were but few persons in the lobby at the time the bill was defeated, but the news spread rapidly through the town and was the general topic of conversation. It is generally understood that the Governor would have vetoed the bill had it passed.”
