americans who have taken policies SO Tar are mostly those who deal in novelties or in small manufactures. Nhich might be affected by sudde.. caanges of tariff in the event of the election of Mr. Bryan. There are ca lamities real and imaginary. because they like the excitement of risking their money.
 Policies against the election of MT. Bryan cost early last week twelve anu one-half .guineas a hundred sterling or aDout thirteen per cent, and they nave been quoted as high as sixteen per cent to twenty per cent.
 Tn other words. if the policy holder IS concerned about the election of
 aryan, he may take out a policy for SlO,OOO on which he will pay. say. S2,o00 premium. If Bryan wins, the Lloyds pay hin sl0,000 to console him for what he considers a calamity. IT Bryan is not elected, the Lloyds hold fast to the premium and he gets nothing except the allaying of his fears.
 No small sums are wagered, now. ever, and it would be impossible for any person with a s bill to get any consideration at the hands of the Lloyds
 As all the risks must be accepted Or rejected by cable, the process of
 insurance is a formal and lengthy one. The policies are supposed to run up into the hundreds or thousands of dollars, and hedgeing is not per mitted. if the gentlemen at IIoyds know it.

Tucson, Tombstone, Bisbee and Douglas will receive the lions snare, or Healy's attention on this trip. He has petitions in circulation there which are to be used in getting the name of the independence candidate for congress on the ticket
 Healy will make no speeches. but he hopes to make converts. He will seek out those who are dissatisfied with the Republican and Democratic parties and urge them to get into the Hearst band wagon and ride to glory.
 After he has raked the south with line tooth comb for converts. Healv proposes to go into the north and ar range for county tickets there: in fact. II he can find enough men in every county of the territory to make up a ticket they will go before the voters under the independence vignette.
 In no quarter of Arizona is Healy and his independence party ana Hearst being taken seriously. Tn the opinion of ninety-nine in every hun dred the independence party will prove the biggest false alarm that ever found its way into the nmeligat .of Arizona politics.
 Speaking about Maricopa county. Healy said this afternoon that if is his intention to nominate full county ticket, with the exception of school superintendent, if the Democrats nom mate 4. Fl. Fulton. He says that the schools should be kept out of politics
 Healy says Cleary has not by any means yet been chosen. He says Mohave, Cochise and Graham each have a man who is being considered for the nomination. Healy refuses to tell their names yet awhile. He still denies that he is considering aim- self for the nomination.

World.
Is we'll known to be of the BEST fratena orders in
our country especially when it comes to the matter OF
cheap and PERFECTLY safe insurance.
This Order by and wise business management has
accumulated reserve surplus amounting to the enor-
nous sum of Sc, 900 100000.
We honestly believe that every of family should take
advantage of the protection offered so cheapy by this
GREAT ORDER. Il
And like this Order five believe that it is the duty OF
every man. during times of prosperity to lay aside por
ton of his earnings so that in case OF SICK
ness or other misfortune ew be prepared to meet the
additional expense that comes at these times
The FAULKNER COUNTY BANK, since established,
has followed this wise plan of putting aside part of its
earnings and today MANY thousand dollars stronger
than when it began business in 1903
We appreciate the liberal patronage that has been given
MS and in return we have endeavored to give
toners prompt and satisfactory service.
