ELECTION BETS IN NEW YORK.

From the New York sun.
IL was roughly estimated that more

affect his winnings whichever way the
election went.
This was his way OF following the
change Of odds: He bet soc to $1,000 on
Van wyck. $500 To 81. 600 on Van Wyck
and finally 5000 to 81. 900 on Van Wyck.
Vt these odds ne had pu; up $1,000 -

The odds changed SO that he was able
10 make one bet OF 500 TO $1,000 on
Roosevelt. another at $500 to 81. 100 and
a third at 5000 to $1,000. representing

 The long cut through the summit has bsen completed and the Midland construction crew is now camped at the Redmau slaughter house and are building tue grade between that point and the.s summit. Ward < Ross out. fit are rapidly closing the gap between the end of the track and the summit, to which point they expect to have the & ads finished by October 20, which will complete their contract.

Owing to lack of space number of local items were omitted frcm our col umns last week, among them announce ment of the opening of the Globe pub lie school, on Monday Oct. 8. The school IS we'll organized with compe- tent corps of teachers. Herman Reed, late of Tonto, and who taught in thls county, successfully, two years, is prin- cipal. He holds first grade certificate, and is, we believe, the only person in Gils county who holds one. His as- sistants are Miss Geraldine Gerald, Miss Winifred Coombs and Miss Nellie AL len, all residents of this county. and who are we'll equipped for teachers. The first grade aud primary classes occupy the new temporary school building on the west side. and the two intermediate classes the sld school house on Broad street. The total enrolment of pupils is over 200, the largest in the history of the Globe school.

The question is frequently asked of late, says the Denver Mining Reporter, to what may be attibuted the renewed interest in mining enterprises, particu- larly in this country? The cause Is not difficult to discover. Capital is always ready to engage in enterprises which pay. Mining does pay. The fact has been established. It is as legitimate a business enterprise us raising wheat or smelling iron, if it is reduced to com. mercial principles; and the men who have made mining successful and con sorvative, at this time, are those who have brought to bear on it, brains, ed ucational equipment and ordinary con- mon sense.

Eugene Brady O'Neiil arrived in the city last night, coming directly from Mobsve county, where, with Lieut.. Wiley E. Jones, they stumped the county, speaking at White Hills, Clor- idle and Kingmsn. They find in that county a unanimous silver sentiment, and both parties are earnest advocates for Col. Wilson, the silver nominee. Mir. O'Neill thinks Col. Wilson will carry that county by at least 600 ma. jority out of the 750 votes that will be cast. There is no gold standard party in Mohave couhtys-Phosnix Enter. prise.

While there have been no political meetings held ia Gila county as yet, the candidates on both tickets are max ing an earnest canvass of this precinct, which will this year poll more votes than in any previous election. Thus far there has been no open abuse Of cardidates, or dishonorable methods employed to discredit nominees on the opposing tickets and we hope there will bs none. Should vilifcation be in- iected into the campaign, however, it will almost certsisly react upon the party responsible for it, to the injury of its own candidates rather than to the dstriment of the individual against whom the abuse is directed, In pre-. vious election years campaigns have been conducted on clean and dispas- siopate lines, candidates relying upon their merits and persuasive ability to command votes, politics cutting small figure. Conditions are considerably changed this year, the percentage of new voters being larger than ever be fore, which opens the door to misrepre. sentation and slander. The candidates on both tickets have been selected from the best material in the two parties, and their capability and records as county officers should govern voters rather than their political allegiance. Efficiency and honesty should commend the candidate for office above consider ations of party.

FOR THE VOTERS TO DECIDE.

The SILVER BELT advocater the cleo tion of Col. !. F. Wilson for several reasons which we consider logical and which appeal to the voters in Arizona who have an abiding interest in the welfare of the territory, Col Wilson stands on platform that declares for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, which the great majority of the people believe in; for nstiopal aid ID the development of our agricul- tural resources by the building of stor- age reservoirs. It advocates the cause of the people as against the shylocks who would subserve their personal ends by increasing the already heavy burden resting upon the taxpayers of the terri tory; 1t advocates a government of the people by the people, and restricting the power of the governor to appoint territorial officers and remove them at PlCaSulS, ~ aCLoNh~co N.V 'phNHb '~" enacted through the efforts of repu5- lican delegate, and the funding of $500, LOO of illegal bonds by the McCord ad- ministration.
 The republicans in their territorial platform. on the other hand, 'endorse fully the legislation accomplished by the national republican leaders" and "unhesitstingly support the judgment and discretion of the republican con- gress upon all questions of financial legislation" They endorse McCord when they declare: "Ws point with pride to the wise and efficient admins tration of public affairs in this territory under republican officials"
 The voters of Arizona must choose which flag they will follow, and We think it can bs safely left to their judg ment to decide whether J. F. Wilson or A. o. Brodie would best serve the people of the territory at Washington as delegate to congress.

BRoDIE's SUDDEN CONVERSION


 It is already apparent that by nom mating Col. A. o. Brodie for delegate to congress the republicans made a serious mistake. It cannot be claimed for him that be is representative re- publican. Two years ago Brodie was a supporter and warm personal friend of Buckle O'Neill. and an advocate of the free coinage of silver, and until he re- turned from Cuba clothed with the prestige of Rough Rider. there was no intimation that he had changed his views upon the issues which divide the two great political parties.
 Not until the opportunity presented itself of gsinipg political prominence by renouncing principles which so re- gently he held essential, did he show signs of wavsring, and when the repub- lican territorial convention at Prescott, in it's extremity. nominated him, Brodis fell, like many ambitious men have, lured by the glamor of political notoriety. His conversion was as sud den as that of Saul of Tarsus, but how unlike it in other respects. Saul was regenerated by the fierce light which blinded his visual organs but illumined his soul. Brodie was only blinded to the folly of the step hs has taken and tho inconsistency of his present position.
 It is certain that no citizen of Ariz- ona who holds the free coinage of sil- yer as cardinal principle of his polit- ical faith will violate that belief by casting bis ballot for A. o. Brodie.
