present during the exercises. Never theless, they were out ID goodly number. and could be seen in par ties of three, four and five, scattered around, apparently enjoying and sympathizing with the rest in the republican rally going on.
 After the meeting was over there was general mingling of friends, aud new acquaintances were formed on every hand.
 Unless all signs fail, the friendly feeling go apparent everywhere will extend beyond November 6, and will carry with it, to be placed on record, a great victory for the republican ticket, which every par tieipant during the evening may well feel proud of.
 1t will hardly be fair to under take to make special mention of the many citizens of Jerome who took all tive part in entertaining the party. To do 90 would but result in neglecting many. In fact it ap- peared as though every one had contributed toward making the meeting a grand success. Our old townsman Alex. lmhon well known through all the mining districts, was ehairmano of the meeting. Every one knows Alex. and knows the en thusiasm he puts into everything he undertakes and this occasion was no exception. Not only during the evening but through the whole night, and into the morning, hun drods oi people seemed to carry the meeting as one of pleasure and good feeling. Not the first unpleasant word even was spoken to mar the harmony, ali going to show the universal endorsement given to the guests by those who had assembled to meet anI honor them. In the morning many of he party were shown through the works by Super intendent J. l.. Giroux and H. J. Allen, aud while pretty well pre- pared for what we were to see, there was universal expression of surprise at the immensity of the plant.
 When MT, Gir0ux referred 10 the many additional improvements con tomplated, We were forced to believe that the great mining camp is yet in its infancy. \ large book could be written, describing the wonderful accomplishments which have re- suited from the ability and untiriag efforts on the part of those having the management of this great com pany's affairs, and Prescott has a right to look forward for extensive benefits to come from the work being done at Jerome. It was our good fortune to meet nearly all of the officials of the company ant in every case they were found to be magnetic, enthusiastic gentlemen, anxious tO extend the hand of hos pitailty to all corners. Never will the name of Mir. Means cease to bring pleasant recoilections 10 the minds of every one of the party. About ten o'clock the party congre- gated on the hill near the companys boarding house and the band con tributed some music as a acompliment to Miss Nellie Cashman, and three cheers were given her by the party, joined by many of here home friends who are always ready to do her honor.
 At this point, MT. Giroux slipped in with his kodak, touched the button, and I think captured a picture of the party, and he evi. dently proposed to have something on hand to call to mind the pleasant experiences of the visit. The march back Co the end of the track was similar to the trip going in.
 At tho end of the track we were received again by Messrs. Becker. Porter, Crowley and others, and after talk with a large number of men in the eompany's employ, we pulled out for home, reaching Pres colt at , o'clock, and all wish to evidence the uniform eourtesies re- eeived during the trip.
 Governor Murphy left on Monday for the southern part ofthe territory where he will undoubtedly receive the same cordial welcome with which @ has. been received in the northern part,
 ONE OF THE PARTY.
