ers Anti Fusion" ""Independent,'
Independent Republican," indie
pendent Democrat or possibly,
owing to the exigency of the occa-
sion, Independent Mieir- Molletta-
Braiden."
1t was then suggested that it
would be the part of political wis
dom to not have either Mieir.
Molletta or Braiden attach their
signatures to this petition, because
of their discredited and disreput-
able standing throughout the
county.
Naturally this caused little dis
cussion, but shortly peace again
prevailed and the discounted men,
bers took their medicine.
When this point in the deliber-
ations had been reached Bralden
became somewhat excited and occu-
pied the floor for some moments
in heated harangue. He ad-
vanced as an essential point to the
success OF their cause the retire
ment of w. O. Mieir from future
active participation in the work of
the Performers" Braiden recog-
nized the value of the services of
his erstwhile co-worker from an
advisory standpoint, and while he
thought it would be most desirable
to retain him in that especial capac-
ity, he considered that his retention
as an open and avowed advocate of
the Performers" would result in
inevitable disaster and defeat to
their cause. The question being
put to a vote, Braiden carried his
point unanimously and Mieir met
a political Waterloo.

Conan Doyle, who in his world

bases all his plots upon deeds of
darkness. In other words, the
criminal, or he who would prey
upon his fellow man, almost invar
iably selects the light, when dark
ness has fallen upon the earth and
the great black mantle has been
hung up to obscure the gaze and
cause cessation of life activity, to
follow his nefarious avocation.
With the criminal, darkness means
safety-it is his greatest protection.
You never find him seeking the
glorious rays of Gods bright sun
shine.
\ This is also true as regarding the
political CRATER He shuns the
light and seeks, by devious and
obscure ways, to accomplish his
ends. Lacking in honesty of pur-
pose, he must needs dissemble in
order to retain the support of the
misguided few who rally to his
cause. Nothing but deception will
retain them and darkness, physi-
cal or mental the very ground
work of deception.
So it is not surprising that the
United Grating Company held its
meeting last Saturday night, not
separating until the midnight bell
had tolled. What more suitable
time could have been selected for
the congregation of these few in
dividuals, or what more appropri-
ate place than the La Jara town Jail,
where they allowed their grey mat
ter to exude in chunks to suit the
occasion? 1t was an appropriate
combination of men, time and place
OF course it was not presumed
that The Chronicle would get next
that it would have any informa-
tion as to this star-chamber pro-
'eeeding. But The Chronicle has
a faculty for publishing the news,
and always gets it, no matter what
the handicap may be.
This secret meeting of the
United Grafters was held last Sat
urday night. Fearing that some
thing might leak, they posted
guards outside whose duty it was
to intercept any individual whose
presence was not desired. This
duty was faithfully performed and
the assemblage was confined solely
to those who could show gilt edged
credentials as ''Reformers or those
whose influence was desired by the
"Grafters." But The Chronicle
has wireless wire that reaches
everywhere, and the people get the
benefit.
After the push had assured them
selves that none but the faithful
had been admitted, a motion was
made and carried unanimously that

MIR. kiksEv IS AT GLOBE eNcAc-
 go IN THAT WORK.
Company to Be Formed on Property of 0lobe-Boston Company Purchased Last Week-other Ground Likely to Come in on Same Terms-Enthusi- asrs at Globe.

|. N. Kinsey, former chief clerk at the Calumet & Arizona smelter at Douglas, has been in Globe this week making up the books of the new com pany which last week took over the property of the Globe Boston Copper Go. in the Globe district
 Consummation of the purchase was brought about through Hosal A. Smith. and the presumption is that the ground was taken over by Mir. Smith for himself and the Cole party inter. ests which he represents In Warren district enterprises in which he has engaged. The fact that MT. Kinsey is engaged upon the books of the new company lends color to the presump- tion. MT. Smith personally has giv. en out nothing regarding the deal. at least not for publication.
 Beside the purchase of the Globe Boston property it is the expectation at Globe that MT. Smith will later take in about fifty more claims adja. cent, a portion of which are held in the Taylcr group. Mining experts have looked over all this property in the last several months in the interest of MT. Smith and associates, and are said to have made favorable report on a considerable portion of the ground. if not on all. A first pay ment has been made on the purchase price of s13O,000 of the Globe-Boston Go, and one-half of that amount in all is to be paid within six months The final payment, s27,ooo, falls due January IS. 1907. Should purchase oi other ground be made in the vicinity the terms of payment will probably be on the same basis.
 Globe people are greatly elated over the entrance to their district of the Bonanza Circle people. feeling that Il marks the opening of the greatest ers in the history of the old camp. En thusiasm runs high, and the future looks exceedingly rosy.

 Number of Rich Strikes in the Year.

A letter received during the week by J. G. Pritchard from Srperintend. ent Collard of the Gold Nugget stated that work in progress in Little Emi- grant canyon on the property was showing up exceedingly good ground. Work at other portions of the proper ty it was also stated was being at. tended by very satisfactory results.
 The stamp mill al the property has during recent months been doing con- siderable custom work for other prop critics in the vicinity which have been turning out good ore, the entire dis trict haVng during the year been brought into more prominence as a producing sectiGn than ever before enjoyed. Some exceedingly rich strikes have been made and a number of prop critics are now under development.
 The Gold Nugget has been self sup. porting since last June The mill was started in April and in the next month got the property to self sus- taining basis. though development was of necessity curtailed to an extent and has not since kept up with pro. dcction. Remedy for this is needed and at the approaching annual meet ing Of the company some plan will probably be decided upon whereby increased mill capacity and a fund for development may be provided. A hoist is necessary on the ground be fore further depth can be made The depth so far attained has shown stead ily improving ore. both in quality and ql antity, and lends every encourage ment to further sinking.
