He has two hundred hens, which he says earn him an average of two cents each per day. Everything he raises MT. Abell sells at Bisbee for good prices. With the flow of water from that one we'll Mir. Abell will within few years make his quarter section of land very handsome and valuable property. And along the San Pedro river there are hundreds of quarter sections where MT.

DO You Want Election Newsa

Arrangements are being per-
fected for receiving special election
returns and the ARDMOREITE takes
pleasure in announcing that these
returns will be given to the people
of Ardmore on the nights of Nov.
6 and I. This paper has made
arrangements with the Western
Union Telegraph Co. for special
wire to be used especially for these
returns. The company will also
furnish corps. of operators and
the service will be first class in
every respect. The expense of Sc
curing the service is heavy, but
with the assurance of the public
today in subscribing towards this
enterprise, there is but little
doubt that the ARDMoREITE will
be able to furnish in detail all
official election bulletins.
R. L. Sanders of this city circu-
lated a list yesterday and quite a
neat sum was realized. To those
only who have subscribed will
tickets be issued. If you are not
on the list you can not get this up

THE mine operators in Pennsyl-
vania have done all they could 20
aggravate the strikers to open vio-
lence, even having some of them
shot down. They imported troops
in the expectation that this would
provoke disturbances and give
them the never failing advantage
of government by injunction. But
to the credit of the miners, and
much to the benefit of their cause.
they have refused the bats thrown
out for them and have conducted
themselves in an orderly manner,
with the result that the operators
are weakening and a complete vic
tory for the strikers seems an early
possibility.

THE Chinese situation seems to
promise an early peace if Germany
were out of the question. The
emperor has shown a willingness
to punish those guilty of leader
shin in the recent boxer troubles,
and this is all that the powers
have demanded as precedent con-
dition to peace. Germany alone
wants to punish them after her
own methods. This may cause a
long delay.

JUST as interest is beginning to

is heading a little insurrection
against Jiminez, who has hardly
had time to become accustomed to
the presidential chair which he
secured through a revolution.
