Steve Roemer Appointed.

Governor A. 0. Brodie has ap- pointed Hon. Steve Roemer a member of the board Of trustees of the territorial industrial school, vice A. A. Emanuel having Ter signed. Mir. Emanuel was a most valued member of the board, and it is to be regretted that he found 1t necessary to resign from the board, owing to the pressure of private business. Mir. Roemer, the new member, is the father of the school and his appointment by Governor Brodie is a merited re- cognitIon. He is, we believe, the only democrat appointee by Gov. Brodie. The position, however, is non political.-Benson Press.

Big Election Bet

Perhaps the largest bet that has been made So far this season on the result of the presidential election was recently made in Silver City between V. c. Place, general man. ager Of the Pinos Altos Gold and Silver Mining Co.,. and Charles M. shannon of the Sentinel Mr. Place bets the new mill recently erected at cost of S40,000 and all the company's mines and property. including the mercantile house against the Hughes and Shannon property at Clifton. The neces sary papers have been made out and placed in escrow pending the result of the election. The Hughes and Shannon property at Clifton is valued at S6O0,000, the present owners having once refused cash offer of $400,000 for it. The prep. erty of the Pinos Altos Gold and Silver Mining Co.,, is in fine con- dition, and is producing regularly monthly shipments of gold bullion. This is undoubtly the largest bet that will be made on the election this year.
