Fusion makes strange bed fell
lows. The recent Otero county
democratic convention was pre-
sided over by an ex-populist boss,
who has been recognized as the
main push in populistic circles here
abouts for 10 these many moons.
Old line Otero county democrats
are much grieved thereat, and
deplore the fact that Jeffersonian
disciple of the simon pure brand
was not thus honored. For blum
dering the democracy may always
be depended upon, from precinct
primary to national affairs.

land was acquired by the United

Bryan consents to live in Nebraska

POLITICAL POINTERS.

ateu ny the republicans OF baCa,
kiowa and Prowers counties,
Wednesday as the candidate for
representative.
Captain ], N. Woods, of La
Jun,a and James Beatty, OF Man
zanola, desire to represent the
Otero county democracy in the
legislature next winter.
The republican state convention
assemblies in Denver next Monday
TO nominate full state ticket.
The congressional convention will
be held at Cripple Creek next
Wednesday.
1t is rumored that G. NJ. Hall
and c. w. Fenalson, remnants OF
the silre: republicans OF Rocky
Ford, aspire 10 be candidates for
representative on the ticket of the
fusion aggregation.
The republican county conven-
tion convenes in adjourned session
at Rocky Ford this afternoon at
2 o'clock to nominate one county
commissioner and a candidate for
representative from Otero county.
c. l.. Seeley had himself inter
viewed by Chieitain reporter
while in Pueblo Wednesday, and
said ''Otero county will give a
majority of 500 for the republican
ticket, national, state, judicial and
county, this fall If you don't
don't blow your own horn the
same it shall not be blowed.
Rather strong, but we all hope c.
l.. is good guesser.
Three girls who were riding BIZ
cycles stopped by the roadside to
get drink and rest. After drink
ing, one OF them sprinkled some
water on her wheel and said II
baptize thee in the name OF Nc
kinley because you have made a
good run" The second girl
sprinkled her saddle with the re-
mark, 81 baptize you in the name
of Roosevelt because you are a,
Rough Rider" The third girl
sprinkled her tires and said, IL
baptise you in name of Bryan be-
cause you are full OF wind"
c. l.. Seeley and George Barr,
represented Otero county in the
judicial convention at Pueblo last
Wednesday, being the only dele
gates present out of the sixteen
elected in the east end OF the dis
trict. kiowa was not represented,
and MIR. Seeley was instructed to
cast the full vote of Otero and
kiowa counties in the convention.
n. Walter Dixon and L. B.
Gibson were nominated for judges,
and ]. II. II. Low for district
attorney, MIR. Seeley casting the
sixteen votes OF Otero and Kiowa
counties for Thomas X. Hoffmire
for the latter Office.
In commenting on the nomina-
ton of NJ. Z. FarwelI for state
senator, the Lamar Register says:
"While Prowers county would
have preferred to have our home
candidate nominated, yet in the
winner we recognize staunch re-
publican, popular and upright
gentleman, and an able and sub
stantial business man, who when
elected in November will reflect
honor upon the district and the
party. He is largely interested in
business enterprises Of the valley,
and will be an energetic worker for
every measure that can benefit
this section. Prowers county will
roll uPa handsome majority for
him."

PROPOSAL ACCEPTED,
Mr.. Dunn to Build School House-Mr
MOckabee's Request.

The proposal of Mr.. ]. NJ. Dunn for the
construction of the eight-room public
school house at the corner of South Caro-
lima avenue and I'd street southeast for
the sum of s31.3S0 was today accepted by
the District Commissioners. The Commits
sioners also accepted the proposal of Mr..
H. 1. Gregory for constructing the heating
apparatus in this building. and also in the
eight-room school house to be erected at
18th and Rosedale streets northeast.
For the construction Of the las;-named
building Mr.. D. T. Mockabee was the low
est bidder. he proposing to construct it for
s2S. 731. the next lowest bid being that of
Mr.. ]. NJ Dunn. $S1.S35. After the bids
were opened Mr.. Mockabee informed the
Commissioners that. owing to mistake of
his clerk in footing up the items going 10
make up his bid. his bid was made about
5000 lower than 1t should have been. Mr..
Mockabee, therefore, requested the Com
missioners to allow him to withdraw his
bid without penalty and without prejudice
to his standing. Captain Beach. the EngI-
neer Commissioner Of the District who has
immediate supervision Of such matters.
has informed his associates that he does
not see how they can take notice of the
mistak referred to by Mr. Mockabee un-
less they are prepared to allow the lowest
bidder to withdraw whenever II may suit
his convenience or seem desirable to him
to do so.
Captain Beach states that Mr. Mocka-
bees work for the District heretofore has
been quite satisfactory. and 1t was with
much regret that he learned of the mistake
of the contractor. The captain says he has
no reason to doubt the correctness of Mr.
Mockabee's statement. but he nevertheless
fails to see how Mr. Mockabee can be re-
leased without setting a bad precedent
Therefore. it Is understood that the Com
missioners will deny Mr.. Mockabee's re-
quest

FOUR TO ONE on MCKINLEY.
This Seems to He the Odds in til
Betting.

The New York World today says:
The biggest bet so far in the campaign
was reported yesterday in Wall street.
Jacob Field. broker. was credited with
having wagered $4,000 to 5000 that Nc.
Kinley would beat Bryan In the November
election.
1t was reported that the man who had
taken the small end of the wager was
Charles A. Starbuck. president of the New
York Air Brake Company. The terms were
arranged. 1t was said at meeting in the
Waldorf-Astoria, where each man put up
his certified check with Bell Co.. the Tam
many brokers. Mr.. Starbuck. 1t was un-
derstood, had been the first to suggest the
odds of to 1. and had been promptly
taken up by Field. who had $4,000 more to
wager on the same terms.
Mr.. Starbuck alleges that he never heard
of such wager. Mr.. Field bet heavily on
Roosevelt in the last gubernatorial election
and came out nearly $4,000 to the good.
1t was said at this office late yesterday
afternoon that he had gone to Saratoga
Many smaller bets were made in Wall
street yesterday. Joseph M. Gilbert bet
5000 against $500 that Mckinley would be
the next President Henry NJ. Steele took
the BRYAN end of the bet. W. G. Gallagher
has made several bets at the same odds, he
taking the small end Of the betting.
At the Hotel Metropole last night a re-
publican district leader declared that he
had $4,000 to wager at to on Mckinley.
There were no takers The prevailing odds,
1t is believed, will be about to l. and 1t
IS expected that there will be plenty of
democratic money to wager on these terms
when the politicians get back from Kansas
City.
well-known democratic banker whose
off1ce IS In proximity to the subtreasury.
but who declined to permit the use of his
name. said yesterday:
Down here it is difficult to find any DEM
ocrats of standing who purpose voting for
Bryan. They will vote straight for McKin-
ley and Roosevelt. and Bryan will be over
whelmingly defeated simply because of his
insIstency and persistency in the 16 to l
doctrine The whole financial district is
arrayed against Bryan and he stands no
show of election l am offering to bet 3 to
that Bryan will not receive 1000 900 votes
this year as against 6.5OO,OOO in 1896. and l
find no takers
