The annual meeting of the Arizona Colorado Copper company has been set for 10 o'clock, Tuesday, November A, at Globe, Ariz., at the mine office. A board of nine directors will be elected by the stockholders and they in turn will organize and elect officers. The notices for the meeting have been re- ceived in Washington and vicinity by the stockholders of record from Sec retary Charles H. Trotter. Those who cannot attend will be represented in the meeting by proxies. Much import ant business will likely come up in this meeting at which time the future policy of the company will be outlined. The recent rich strike of copper in this mine has created great interest in the company here and many will go to Globe to attend the meeting. Specimens of raw cupiferous ores and finished blister copper are on exhibition n the display window of the Magerum & Campbell store on Main street and they arc attracting wide attention.
 The party which will attend the an nual meeting will leave Washington on Tuesday. November 17. for Indianapolis, will be joined by a similar party of stockholders. Among those who will go from Washington and vicinity are the directors, John I. Carson, Homer Crum. rine and John Bumgardner. Others who are contemplating making the trip are J. Frank MeClay, Dr. J. B. McMurray, pr. T. W. Young, Walter J. Coulson, Henry T. Bailey, W. A. Gabby, Charles Kochendarler and Dr. c. B. Dunkle of Washington; Frank L. Baker of Baker E Station; James Dunn of Dunn s stat;Qn, and Dr. T. W. Young, Jr., of Ambridge It is likely that others VII decide to join the party before the date of de, parting arrives. It will require the best part of a week to reach Globe and it is likely that two weeks will be consumed in visiting the Globe camp and its famous mines noted in the cop per world. The party will be quartea ed at the Dominion hotel, one of the most up-to-date and modern hostelries of the southwest, where arrangements have already been concluded.
 | The ore exhibit from the Arizona Col. orado in the Margerpm & Campbell store window is exciting great interest It is grouped and placarded. One group shows red and brown oxides and blue carbonate or azurite ore running high in copper and carrying gold and silver values. This ore is from the upper lev. els or oxidized zone From the lower levels or the sulphide zone ;s shown bornite and chalcopyrite ore rannine high in copper, with gold and silver values, from the recent rich strike There is also an ingot of blister copper running about 99 per cent copper shown which is a direct result from smelling the raw ores shown in the ex hibit.-Washington (Pa.) Exchange.

STOCK MARKET Is
 WAITING ELECTION
TENDENCY IS TO HOLD STOCKS TO END OF CAMPAIGN, WHEN, BROKERS EXPECT, GENERAL REVIVAL WILL COME.

NEW YORK, October S6.-Sentiment in the stock market today was quite cheerful, but active expression by buy ing of stocks was restrained. With the lastweek of the presidential cam, paign entered upon and tho geNeral assumption that the passing of the cleo. ton will be the signal for an awakened public buying of stocks, the supporters of the market are content, apparently to hold prices to await the outcome.
 Influential sentiment brought fur there rise in the price of copper.
 Hartman Pacifies resumed tho leader ship of the railroad list, and Northern Pacific made brisk recovery from the pressure of releasing sales which held il down last week. The near eastern ques tion, however, seems to have lost it' influence on the New York market.
 Bonds were irregular.

The following opinion of the market from the New York Journal of Com merce conincides with what the editor of this column said week ago:
 "In plain language, the spectators who have so long dominated the stock market were responsible for the demon. stration. Their strategy meets little op- position from the bears, because short selling has repeatedly proved danger ous and unproftable, so thoroughly is the market in the grip of the multi-mil' lionaires who can command an unlimit' ed supply of cheap money. The excuse given is that all the usual tests have convinced these people that the presi dential election will result satisfactor ily from their standpoint. By forcing values 5 or 10 points higher there will be established better level on whict to commence unloading when the cleo tion of MT. Taft is formally announced Several standard stocks have been ear ried to new high points for the year and they are well above the level of year ago. Whether the public will tak' kindly to still higher prices is open t' question.

The same tactics to advance stocks were pursued yesterday by those in con. trol of the market as have been noted for the past ten days. The copper stocks were helped by hardening of the metal market both in London and New York. Old Dominion was the fea- ture of the Boston market, being heav- fly bought all day and closing at 53 bid-2% points above Saturdays clos ing b:d.

If the best and most powerful friends of securities could have their way, they would defeat Hughes and elect Taft. As a matter of fact, some of the big men are convinced that if both men are successful, the discouraging influence, speculatively speaking, of the re-elec- ton of Governor Hughes would for a time almost offset the good effects of the election of Taft.

PRETTY SONG AT THE IRIS.

The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1908-12-10

I approve the recommendations OF
the general board for the increase OF
the navy, calling especial attention to
the iced of additional d~estroyers and
GOLFERS and. above all, of the four bat
tleships. 1t Is desirable to complete
as soon as possible a squadron of eight
battleShips of the best existing type.
The North Dakota, Delaware, Florida
and Utah will form the first division
of this squadron.
Imost earnestly recommend that the.
general board be by law turned into
a general staff, TheN is literally no
excuse whatever for continuing the
present bureau organization Of the
navy. The navy should be treated as
a purely military organization. and
everything should be subordinated to
the one object. of securing military
efficiency. A system Of promotion by
merit. either by selection or by ex-
clusion or by both processes. should be
introduced.
Nothing better for the navy from
every standpoint has ever occurred
than the cruise of the battle fleet
around the world. The improvement
of the ships in every way has beer ex-
tr~aordinary, and they have gained far
more experience in battle tactics than
they would have gained if they had
stayed in the Atlantic waters. l do
not believe that there is any other
service in the world in which the
average of character and efficiency in
the enlisted men Dis as high as is now
the case in our own. | believe that the
same statement can be made as to our
officers, taken: as a whole, but there
must be a reservation made in regard
to those in the highest ranks and in
regard to those who have just entered
the service, because we do not now
get full benefit from our excellent
naval school at Annapolis.
