take advantage of a gathering to wit

thus bring down the little indebtness on
the church. And then the thought oc.
Cured to some to celebrate the day with
speeches suitable to the occasion, so
contribution was laid upon Rev. j. p.
Stump, the genial and obliging pastor of
the M. L. Church, South, in Fredericks-
burg, who had dedicated the church and
made many friends in the community
and he made himself useful outside of his

one of the speakers, and this writer

to enjoy his visit.

THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The democratic county convention
at Silver City last Saturday passed OF
very peacefully, no one was killed.
The hrst contest was over the tenn.
porary chairman, both the Blair and
Shannon forces wanting to secure this
honor. The Blair men won by a vote
OF A to 81 and j. W. Jackson, Of Pinos
Altos. was chosen. w. b. Walton was
chosen as temporary secretary. The
usual committees were appointed and
a recess taken to give them time to
report.
The committee on permanent organ
iZation selected w. B. Walton for
chairman and A. G.. Hood for score.
tary. The committee on credentials
made a straight report, except that it
wanted to seat a resident Of Silver
City as a delegate from the Lower
ella, and give him four votes, which
the convention could not stand, and
he was thrown out.
The committee on platform made
thsusual report, having discovered
that everything the republicans did
was wrong aud everything the demo-
Gratis had done was right,
The first nominations were COM
missioners. Cornelius Bennett was
nominated from the first district,
John G. Cureton from the second, and
Seaman Field from the third, without
opposition.
Then the fun commenced, the nom.
ination for sheriff being In order.
Much e%loquence was expended 10 pre-
sentiug the nanies of ]. X. Blair and
Bay Shannon. When the votes were
counted IL was found that Blair had
IS votes aud Shannon IL. Blair had
won 10y just the Lordsburg vote.
John L. Burnside was nominated
collector without opposition.
The convention had d hot time selet-
ing an assessor, taking four ballots be.
fore coming to a decision, then the
chair declared a man nominated who
had not received a majority Of the
votes. There were five names before
the convention, G. W. NJ. Carvil. the
present occupant OF the office, John
II. Gillett, who held the office two
years ago, j. b. Hodgdon, Of Demlng,
who is a perpetual candidate for the
office, II. d. Hall, of DemIng and f.
]. Davidson OF PinOs Altos. On the
fourth ballot the nomination was
given to Gillett, probably to keep him
FROM boiling the party again.
For probate clerk w. S. McLaugh-
lin OF Fierro was nominated, and for
probate judge Edward Baker of Silver
City was selected.
For superintendent Of schools A. N.
White and B. T. Link were presented.

to one indictment, was fiued $50.
The other Indictment was dismissed.
1t will be remembered that Superin-
tendent Of Schools Link sued the
county for a lot of salary he thought
was coming to him and early in the
term dismissed the suit. After the
democratic convention passed off and
he was defeated for denomination, he
asked the court for permission to have
the case reinstated on the docket,
which permission was granted. Thus
was a pretty piece OF e%lectioneering
disclosed.

For three days, Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, it rained here at frequent
Intervals, and the country is we'll
soaked. There was no very heavy
rains but a succession OF easy showers,
which allowed the water to soak into
the ground and do some good. The
range was never finer than 1t is now,
and the outlook for the stockmen for
the winter is fine. The rains caused

who had stoves and lreDlaces consid-
cred themselves 10 luck. The rain
extended beyond FL Paso on the east
and Tucson on the west. There were
no wash~uts on this division Of the
Southern Pacific, although there wal
one west OF Tucson that delayed trains
about ten hours Sunday, aud one east
of FL Paso that delayed the trains Sc
much that the west bound train OF
Monday did not walt for IL,
