THE SOCIAL SfDe.
Col. Brodie and Judge Wright Enjoy
 the Dsn< eS.

Kingman, Oct. 19.-(Special corre
 spondence of The Republican. .)-The
 people of both Kingman and Winslow gave dances fer Colonel Brodie and his party, the one last night, and the
 ether Tuesday night Colonel Brodie and Judge Wright thoroughly enjoyed ] these social functions. and. although both dances lasted sev-ral hours after the msstings were over, they stayed until Home, Sweet Hcme" was played by the orchestra The 1a,iies divided their attentions between the distin-
 guished visitors, and hardly a dance
 WAS called that they did not respond to an engagement for the number. Both are good dancers, and it was plain to all that the diversion was a pleasure.
 Hon. E. S. Clark and Auditor Gecree W. Vickers looked on and mingIed
 with the ladies in social intercourse. but dancing was beyond the limit of thelr accomplishments. Colonel Bro dle rsmarked, and the same thing was noticed by the rest Of the parry. that
 there was unusual grae,a' and perfect
 motion in the dancing Of the young and old people of these places. The chlef pleasure of the people is danc- ing, ana It Is said that all they have to do to get crowd tcgather is to sta- tlon some fellow on street corner and let him spread the news tc passers-by. The northern Arizona, towns have an abundance of beautiful girls, fact
 which was noted by Judge Wright in
 his speech last night, with a warning to me not to inserthis statement in my A rfr ntf
 have formed for the judge prompts me in remaining silent in reference to this matter, as he has impressed upon ny mind many beautiful pictures Of Mrs.
 Wright and his home life in Tucson, which have no desire to mar.
 Several old residents of Mchaye county told me that the grsatest num- Der of Captain Buckley O'Neill's friends would vote for Brcdie. Many of the democrats and populists of Kingman i will do the same, although they are net telling people about it outside of their intimate friends
 *%**
 At the hall last night leading popu- list said to me: "The people here knew of the great friendship of O'Neill and Brodie, during the fcrmer's life, and that is going to count in Brodie's favor. Then the statehood issue is becoming very popular up here. Our mines are coming to the front, but we all know that the fact Of Arizona being a state has retarded its growth. 1 am a pop ulist, but my best friend in Arizona
 was O'Neill, and my next best friend
 is the man who was always true to Buckley during his lifs-Colcnel Bro die.
 It is regarded as certain now that Colonel Brodie will carry Mohave, and the town of Kingman will give him a majority of votes. He will have the entire northern tier of counties beyond doubt. Democratic and populist votes will go to him in large numbers.
 Hon. E. D. Ellinwood, who was Q can didate before the democratic conven- tion for delegate, rode to Kingman yesterday, and he said that three fourths of the democratic vote of Co., conino county was going to Ralph
 Cameron, and Colonel Brcdie will run even with Cameron, who is @ candidate for sheriff, and one of the best rustlers, as wsll as one of the best fellows in that county.
