How Bry.u,.m An.e,s rinanes..

A gentleman well known to the mining world, and also well known generally in Prescott, who IS east on mining business. writes as follows to his attorney iu Prescott:
 Il find it very difficult 10 interest capitalists iu any sort Of outside investments here; the business | came on is progressing slowly. The fact IS that but little can be done until the election in November is over and the question of free silver IS decided. Should Bryan and sil- yer prevail-but that is impossible then good bye to investments in any and everything of an outside undertaking, especially mining.
 The impractical character of the platform-with protection ignored --oR which Bryan Is making his can vas, produces such 8 condition of uncertainty iR all financial centers as results in utter want of confidence all round.
 Repatriation being threatened, it throws all questions of investments to one side for the time being, and, as all admit, 8 state of such con fusion would be produced as would require several years to adjust, fl the conditions produced by Bryan's election were possible of adjust ment under his regime.
 1t is too bad to think that such vast mass of supposed to be intelli gent Americans should give such blind allegiance Co a hobby so diametrically opposed to their own interests and welfare as that of FREE TRADE AND FREE SILVER They did it to elect Cleveland, and would repeat the dose by electing Bryan. In the latter they will ingloriou ly fail, leaving the democracy rent m twain, and the POpulists where they have always been-nO where.
 There can be no doubt from all present indications but that Major Mckinley will be elected. Between Bryan's gabble and his rabble fol- lowing, they seem to make much noise and some show, but its the thinking, reasoning vote that will tell, when they come to be counted in November next.

A Slight Error.

In the official record of Duckv O'Neill, published in the last issue of the JoURNAL-MiNER, a slight error occurred in one item. Instead of securing the passage of law during the legislative session of 1885 allow ing court reporters salaries of 5000 per year, it should have read "an appropriation of Sl, 900 per year, for court reporters"
 There was an overcight of a slight amount received by him during the same session, the amount being S5OO for alleged services as cour. re- porter, special appropriation bill having been passed by that session allowing him this sum, SO tha, but a very slight discrepancy occurs in balancing the two accounts.

 The seven strongest democratic wards in Chicago show a gain of 1884 in the number of voters regis tered this year, as compared to the registration of 1894. The seven strongest republican wards show a gain of l3,960. In 1894 the republi- cans carried the city of Chicago by an average majority of 45,0OO. The prospects are that the city will give Mckinley a plurality of from 75.- 0OO, to 100000.

Letter From Stanton.

STANTON, Oct. 20 Editor JOURNAL MINER. After a ride over the rncks and across the gulches of Antelope Hill, and through mountains replcte with history of gold discoveries, hardships and crime, it was q pleas ant task to stop for lunch with MT. and Mrs. Peery, who keep a store that contains everything conten- plated by the sign, general mer- chandise.'
 Coming down the hill we passed the arastras of C. B. and Dan Ge- nung, who are working some profit able ore.
 The ruins of the old Stanton place remain to call up "reminiscences of the days gone when that was ihe hOstelry to which all persons tray cling over the road, made it the resting place for the night.
 The Peery mines are being de- veloped by a shift of men and are showing a strong ledge of good ore.
 Over at Weaver a number of Mex jeans are working out the placer problem at the average rate of about E. per day.
 The steam shovel of the Bates. Fuller syndicate IS lying idle for want of water. 1t seems too bad that after the laying of miles of pipe line Co gulcheS which have given a good supply of water in past years that they should now become dry. It IS certainly exasperating to the owners to see Mexicans dry. weshing the ground and under the very foundation of the plant and taking out good wages every day. The ground Is rich and m the rainy season the machine work, with a profit
 Stories of good finds of nuggets on Rich Hill after showers still float around, showing that after the thousands Of people who have worked the hill bare and abandoned it, IL still contains treasures for the gold seeker.
 The rich mineral section of this stands greatly in need of capital to develop It. Go.

APau.e,Ic scene In tA. Court Hou.e.

A very pathetic scene occurred at the court house this afternoon, at the close of habeas corpus proceed ings instituted ty Timothy Green to obtain the custody of his child. The proceedings were held before Court Commissioner Wm. Wilker- son. The child. ever since the desth of its mother, three or four years ago, has been kept by MT. and Mrs. F. R. Stees, and 1t was apparent to- day that the tendrils of love had interwoven themselves in the hearts of both the elderly couple and tho child itself. When the court con- missioner announced his decision awarding the child to its parent, and he picked 1t up to leave the court room. the little one set up the most agonizing screams and tried with all the power and strength of its little body to free itself from his grasp. Mrs. Stees, who evidently had learned to love it as if 1t were her own flesh and blood, also cried most piteously as the father carried the little one away, and strong m n who witnessed the sgonizing plea,i- ing tones of the little one, and the shrieks of the woman, were moved to tears, and the remarks of by islanders were anything but compli- mentary to the father, who, il Is alleged, voluntarily gave the little one to MT. and Mrs. Stees when it needed their care and attention.
 It was certainly a most piliful sight to see the bright and pretty little girl torn from those it loved 50 dearly. screaming and crying as though its little heart would break. even though it was done by her father.
