QUIET BUT INTENSE.
The Most Extraordinary Election Ever
 Held in Phoenix.

The election was the most extraor- dfnary ever held in the city, not cnly on account of the heavy vote polled but also on account of the extreme Quietness with which it was done. Half the vote had been put in by Il o'clock in the morning. By l o'clock in the afternoon there were more than HOO votes boiled and by 9 o'clock the number had risen to 1,725. Within the next hour mere than 100 votes were cast and within the remaining hour nearly 1000 were cast.
 The impression prevailed ttRt the Fowler vote was enormous; that he was sweeping the second ward and that he was running ahead of the ticket in the first, the biggest in the city. The democrats were hopeful that he might be held level in the third and fourth and it was believed that the heavy Mexican vote in the fourth which seemed to be well under con- trol, would be cast almost solidly for the democratic ticket.
 Aside from the contest for delegate the chief interest centered in the sher- if struggle. In the morning the bet ting inclined to Walker but later in the day Walker money became more tirnid and some of those who had financially backed their opinions re- sardiHg his success in the morning were trying to hedge.
 Encouraging republican news was received from WIckenburg about noon and that was that Fowler would re- ceive a majority ranging from fifty to seventy-five in that democratic pre- cinct and that Sheriff Ccok would have at after that a message came from Flor ence saying that Fowler would carry that town.
 The voting went on actively but quietly There were few disputes I; the polls and an unusually small num- her of challenges by either side. But there was a great hustling of votes ir which the Young Mems Democratic | club showed that they were not ly- 1 ing down on the ticket as had beer predicted Chief among them in per nicious activity was Al Arthur who employed himself and the usual meth | cd of his organization in not only get | ting out the registered vote but ir procuring the late registration through the courts of those democrats who had been inadvertently left off the regis ter.
 District Clerk DUnlevy had the bus fest day of the November term. Ap- plcations poured in for writs Of man. damus and in the course of the after noon score was restored to the fran chfse.
 It was evident that the tickets had heen badly cut and when they were sorted out it was found that the nun her of the scratched tickets greatly exceeded the number of the straight. The count began in the first ward first. When 100 had been counted Fowler was leading almost two to one. In the second ward the straight tick cts were counted first and the pain ful discovery was made that Fowler led Smith by only thirteen votes. The subsequent count was hardly less dis

quieting for while Fowler appeared to be gaining he was not making the heaiwsy which had been expected in what had been regarded as the ban ner precinct of the town. It was evil dent from the character of the voting and the heavy ballot that the count iu the city wards would not be fin- ished before daylight but crowds hung about the polling places until a late hour. Returns from the country had been slow and when majority of the residents of Phoenix went to bed they were in doubt as to the result as to the county ticket.

HEAD CRUSHED WITH HEAVY
MAUI.
Jacob GODlcu Arrested In Waune
COUNTY for KILLING Unknown Man.

Blue6eld, w. Va, March g.
Jake Copley was arrested Sunday by
Deputy sam Doc Smith, of Wayne
county, and was lodged in Jail at
Wayne Court House.
On the "a n ult., near Breeder,
an unknown man was beaten TO death,
after being robbed, and Copley is
supposed To have been his assailant.
The murder waI discovered by a
party of engineers, who were survey
ing in that section. They were at
tracted to the scene-a secluded hol-
low or ravine-by hearing piteous
cries, as of some one in dire pain and
found the man who hal voiced the
cries in dying condition, while
Copley-or II least a man whom
they believe was Copley-was seen
about $50 yards away, running at
full speed with his hat In his hand.
This victim had been beaten over
the head with maui until his skull
was crushed in. He lived some little
time after the arrival of the engineers
and evidently tried to tell them the
season for his plight, but was alto
gether too weak to talk. He muir
mnred something that sounded like
Kirk" and it is thought that this
may very probably be his name. If
not there Is absolutely no clue to his
identity. 1t was certain that he was
not resident Of that section, and
every pocket had been rifed so that
there was nothing left by which he
could he identified. All his belong
ings, had completely disappeared,
and were probably hidden in the
cliffs near by, as the man whom the
engineers saw running away from
the spot is believed to have carried
nothing with him. Several persons
are searching the cliffs hoping to
lind some OF the murdered mans
property by which he may be identi-
fed.
When the engineers reported the
tragedy they informed the authori
ties that an hour or two earlier they
had seen the dead man, in company
with Copley, come across the hill
near where they were at work.
They stood and talked for a while
and then went down into a ravine,
the dead man apparently not wish
ing to go that way, and only con
sented to after repeated urging by
COplsV. At that time the dead MAJ
carried q satchel.
The engineers have seen Copley
since his arrest on Sunday and are
confident that he 10 the man tbev saw
go into the ravine with the stranger,
and also the man they saw later run
ming away from the scene Of the
robbery and murder
The dead man was neatly dressed,
wore q derby hat and dark sack suit
and was apparently about thirty
eight years of age.
