$Ihat the combined Mclean and Jones
tvote, for the governorship exceeded the
Republican plurality of $4,000 is a we'll
known fact That the bulk of the Jones
vote is to go to Bryan this year has been
clearly indicated by tho splendid speeches
made by the mayor OF Toledo, who frank
ly says he is not democrat hut be-
lieves that vote for Bryan this fall Is
a patriotic vote.
The chief sources of democratic
strength the poll indicates, lie, first, IN
the independent element, represented by
Mayor Jones second, in the Germans, 50
per cent of whom will vote the demo-
crattu ticket; third, in those democrats
who supported Palmer and Buckner and
Mckinley in 1896, but who have again
become regular; fourth In the repub-
licans who are alarmed at the growing
power of the trusts and the prospects OF
the results OF McKinley's Imperialism,
and. fifth, in citizens irrespective of past
party political ties who resent Hanna 5

This stability in political faith is found
IN the rural sections just as church faith

laughed at by the democratic leaders. who
say that Hernley and the republican COM
mittee are being fooled by a few scatter"
ing changes dhat seem very big and inn
portant to those who send in the reports;
but down. in their hearts the democrats
fear these claims are made to pave the
way for the Illegal use of money ia great
quantities in these rural communities.

SCHEME TO ROB 4 BANK FAILS.
Two Young Telegraph Operators of
 Kansas City in Prison.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. l9. Robert O'Connor and Harry Turner, two young telegraph operators of this city, are in prison as the result of shrewed at tempt to rob the City National Bank of Kansas city and the Commercial Bank of Lawson, Mo-, of $500.
 The conspirators went to Lawson early in the week and pretendsd to be purchasing land. They gained consid. erable standing and then established telegraphic instruments just outside of Lawson to aid them in their work.
 When all was ready O'Connor, who bore the name of J. R. Rief, presented himself at the Commercial Bank and presented 8 telegrom, apparently from the Kansas City bank, asking that he be paid $500. Meanwhile telegram, signed Commercial Bank" had been sent to the Kansas City bank, asking that S5, ,500 in currency be sent to Law son by express, presumably for Rief. The Kansas City bank this morning wired the Lawson bank that they had shipped the money, but the telegram was not delivered, and this resulted in the undoing of the conspirators.
 When O'Connor, alias Reef, appeared at the bank, the officials became suspi- cious and called up the Kansas City bank by telephone. Had they used the O'Connor's partner, con- cealed just out of the city, could have the message and sent in favorable answer. Instead the Kansas City people repudiated the entire deal and the men were promptly arrested.

FOR SUPERVISOR.

The three candidates for this office are representative men and should be elected on general principles, in the interests ot good government and of the people generally. The office is g most important one, it remaining with the board, the auditing of the county's finances and the approving of all bills against it. For this responsible place only conservative men should be elect ed men who will stop and consider the why and wherefore before ordering warrants drawn on the county treasur. err on this account the Republican party has wisely selected. Geo. B. Reay, of Naco, Thos. Allaire of Will COX, and A. V. Moves of Fairbanks.
 Mr, Reay Is at present one of the owners in the mercantile house at Naco known as Curry & Co. and by his bus. iness abilities has built up large trade. He was for several years employed in the mines in Bisbee, and has always proved himself true and reliable.
 Mr. Allaire is a cattle man of the Sulphur Spring Valley, and is at pres- ent member of the board. Being the only one of the board as candidate for reelection he should receive large vote as he will bs the only member posted on how the the affairs of the county should be conducted, and will be of valuable assistance to his two associates.
 Mir, Moves is prosperous rancher living near Fairbank, and has always taken great interest in the affairs of the county. He is we'll known for his business abilities and integrity, and when qualified as supervisor will guard we'll the county's funds. ~
 From top to bottom the ticket is one of the best that has been presented to the voters of Cochiss county for many years, and you will make no mistake in voting it straight It is a winner and can't be beat.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE TIE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES

neatly aud correctly kept,
 DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
 The candidate for district attorney, George w. Swain, of Tombstone, has already served in that capacity and has proved his ability to look after the legal interests of the county in most fitting manner. During his last term of office the legal expenses of the county were materially lessened and its tax pa" a"ers saved several hundreds of doll ars. It is safe to assert that he will always be on hand when his services are needed, and the board of supervis- ors will not have to hire another attorney on account of his absence.
 ASSESSOR
 c. A. Overlook, the nominee for this office is one of the best known business men in the county, having been engag- ed in various enterprises here for the past fifteen years. He is entirely familiar with the valuations of property of all classes and the next assessm ent roll of the county under his matage- ment will show considerable increase over the present one which will mean a reduction of the county's tax rate, which is what the citizens of the county have been paying for years. The coun- ty for number of years has never been thoroughly assessed as 1t should have been. MT. Overlook intends to make a personal tour of the country and all property, whether belonging to in- dividuals or corporations, will be assess ed to their true valne and all be made to bear their just share of Taxes.
 PROBATE JUDaF.
 The present incumbent, Wm r. Bradley, has again been placed before the people for the approval of his. rec ord, and he will be selected to the office. by good majority He has serv- ed the country faithfully in this posit- for several terms and needs no further recommendation to the voters of Coch- ise county than his record.
 SUPT OF SCHOOLS
 r. C. Willard, of Tombstone who for the past six years has been principal of the public schools of that city, was giy. en the nomination for this important office, being deemed by the party as 8 man most capable for the position. Mr. Willard though some what stranger in some parts of the county, will be vouched or by his friends, who fully know his fitness for the office for which he aspires. He was one of the census enumerators of Cochise county having the work in charge, and the fullness of that report shows him to his work with reliability and completeness
 SURVEYOR.
 J. A, Rockfellow, the candidate for surveyor, has served for that capacity for the past two years and should be again rewarded with that position. The office is not veay paying one, and does not justify the candidate to do any eleotioneering but the voters shoeld see that capable man is elected to the position and they will do so by again giving the office to the present incup. bent.
