SILVER KING. Oct. 18th.


 been weeping and wailing and gnashine of teeth. The article in last week, ENTERPRISE was the cause of it all. l refer to the article concerning the judicial actions of Judge Ruggles ir the Rittenhouse and Dorsey cases | There are parties here who can testify to the facts and it looks as if the Judge had ''put his foot into it" as fa1 as those two cases are concerned. The voters of this precinct will remember that vote for w. H. Benson is the proper thing under the circumstances.
 Aside from the general discussion accustomed by that article, there has been very little of moment in political circles. Registration is completed and the camp has settled down to its usual calm. It may be only the calm be- fore the storm that will surely come with election morn.
 Our merchants have been visited this week by several drummers who have taken many orders for goods suitable for holiday trade. Soon . will be reminded more forcibly of the near approach of the holidays by gor- geous displays of attractions peculiar to the season.
 There have been a number of acci- dentsin the mine and three of the men were more or less injured. William An gela was struck in the back by falling rock and pretty well shaken up and bruised. It will be some time before he can resume his duties. A. Lago- masini was similarly injured but not so seriously and is now able to be around and about. Jno. Meaghan had his foot severely crushed and bad ly bruised by boulder, which will lay him up for quite a season. Mrs. Vim. Angela and Mrs. Meaghan who have been seriously ill are reported improv- ing and now out of danger.
 There is a strong report that Mir. Arthur Macy's resignation as Superin- tendent of the mine has taken effect and that Mir. Adams has assumed charge. There has been no notice of the change posted as yet. Several friends of Mir. Macy were entertained at dinner Tuesday evening at the IGSluGllCG.
 We have had an unusal excitement in the shape of wedding this week. Mrs. Pierce consented to change her name to Mrs. Joseph Kay and the knot was tied in Pinal Wednesday evening. The affair was duly celebrated by | dance at the school house here, given under the auspices of Miss Maggie (trnaf1 xrrhO tlNn I,,.,I 4l. wedding.
 The Mexican residents were agree ably entertained at a dance given at the school house on Monday evening. Now that start has been made no doubt such entertainments will be frequent in the future.
 Mir. Geo. N. Roberts of Silver King has announced himself as candidate for Councilman from this county. He does not state, however, that he will make thorough canvass of the dis trict.
 Frank Meyor, the pioneer butcher of Silver King, has been making quite extensive improvements in his market, enlarging it somewhat, and haFpaper- ed and painted it throughout It now looks nearly as handsome as Frank does himself.
 Our truants who were at Florence in attendance on the court have all returned. Some of them looked "all broke up" when they reached home.
 MT. E. D. Crumb of Wells, Fargo & Co, and MT. w. E. Stone representing Bridges * Co.,, returned from Globe in the early part of the week. MT. Crumb left for Tucson immediately but Mir. Stone remained a few days Both de- clare that should occasion require their presence in Globe again that the road via Riverside possesses the most attractions for them.
 The business of Wells, Fargo & Co.,, at Pinal, has fallen off so much that the company is seriously considering the advisability of closing the office there and also the one at Globe. It is to be hoped that their intention may not be carried out, for it would be a great inconvenience to the few who use the privileges of the company. The change, if made, will not be made TOT some llme yet.
 Some people are inclined to the be- lief that the King mine is about work ed out and others that it is only question of time until larger and more extensive ore bodies are yet to be found. I am inclined to the latter be- lief. But it is a serious fact at the present time that the output is very small compared to other times. I question the policy adopted by the Directors of the King mine in dispos- ing of all surplus revenue, after ex- penses are paid, by declaring large div idends. A failure of this mine means a very hard time of it indeed both for Pinal and Silver King. H. A. C..
