ELECTIONS-As has been remarked in these columns before, about the most strenuous work an Arizonian has to do i to vote. If he discharges his full duty in this line he don't have a great deal of time left to devote to work; surely not enough to thoroughly discuss half the questions he votes on. This valley is a sort of storm center for elections for beside all the political county and town elections, there are frequent canal and water elections and some lodge or big corporation has q vote coming all the time. It was rath- CT taken for granted that when No- vember 6 was passed Arizona would rest a while from her voting labors. but here is Phoenix with an election on hand today. Bisbee is to have a spe- cial election December F to settle a franchise proposition and Tucson has a city election loaded and almost ready to fire.

GRIPPENBUR6 BEGINS
 10 TAKE PUNISHMENT
He's Sure of Sixty Days in Jail With The Penitentiary at The End Of That Period.

A G. Grippenburg yesterday began 10 get some idea of what the future had in store for him. He finds in the first place, that he will have sixty days in the county jail Next, he IS held to the grand jury on a felony charge and there is another petty lar Ceny charge against him.
 That was filed yesterday morning, by H. NJ. Jones. who lives near the city. Grippenburg soon after coming to Phoenix. resided at the Jones resi- dence for a time and about the time of his departure a gold watch was miss ing. He was not seriously suspected. if at all. of the theft of the watch until the other diclosures concerning him began to be made.
 A pawnbroker then began looking over his books. and found that man by the name of Grippenburg had left a watch with him. It was identified as the Jones watch and a warrant was sworn out. He was arraigned yester- day afternoon and pleaded not guilty. His trial was set.
 The case of the embezzlement of a kodak from the Berryhill company was
 
 that was said against him. but he said that at the time he took the kodak he intended to return it. Then he said he got drunk and intimated that he was no longer responsible for his ac- tions. After this trial was begun he mentioned that he had no lawyer. but said he had telegraphed to friends in the east for aid. but he had not heard from them. The court did not believe that the ends of justice would be serv- ed by waiting a reply to the telegram and found him guilty. Grippenburg waived time for the passing of the sentence and was fined $6O which, means sixty days in the county jail.
 This matter having been disposed of. the felony charge in connection with the embezzlement of horse and bug gy from the Club stables was next con sidered. The charge against him was admitted but as in the case of the ko- dak. Grippenburg attributed the whole affair to drunkenness. He also sought to make a point of the fact that he had not tried to dispose of the embez- zled property. He was held to the grand jury in the sum of $500.
 AnOlneT was lo NHG case yesterday The Tempe authori- ties received a letter rom man in San Francisco inquiring about young man who had probably committed sui eide in that neighborhood. The letter described the young man. who was said to be the son of wealthy parents who believe that he is now in Europe. It was said that his name was Bucking- law. though he sometimes went by the name of Selfridge. That. it will be re- membered, is the name Grippenburg had assumed at the time of his ar rest at Red Rock. The personal de- scription of the supposed suicide is a perfect description of Grippehburg. How the writer got the notion that suicide had been contemplated is not known. but from his accuracy of description of the movements of the intended suicide. which were precisely those of Grippenburg. it is easily sur missed that Grippenburg wrote to hiTD. probably with the idea of confusing | the authorities here.

He couldn't even pay debts with the ten dollar bill, say nothing of buy

 ence in money Mir. Lewis hunted him up. explained his joke and made good.
