II has long been an axiom IN Amerl-

est In a local campaign a month
ago no one believed that the present
city campaign In Albuquerque would
be an exception 20 the general rule. A
large majority of the people believed
that the present city administration
was exceptionally weak. aud that q
. good many things were being done
which ought 10 be done differently,
but Notwithstanding that fact the
usual local campaign dullnessr pre-
vailed TO such an extent that tho
chances were ten to one that nothing
would be done to mend matters, ana
that things would be permitted to
DRIFT tn election day, when by a very
small vote the ms would be given
permission 10 remain in. Such was
the state Of affairs four weeks ago,
when no betting man could BE- Induced

during the last two weeks. Tho re-

LACRO|X WINS.

The wrestling match between Ed.
Lacroix and Young Beel at the Cow
ington Theatre Sunday night was
won by Lacroix in As minutes, the
conditions being that Lacroix was
to throw Beel three times in one
hour. The contest took place on a
raised platform entirely unfit for
such purpose. Beel was rushed from
the platform at one time, Lacrol1
falling on top of him on the floor.
Beel was knocked unconscious. AT
another time Lacroix rushed him
through a canvas partition. In spite
of his injuries Beel refused to quit
and wrestled gamely to the end. Had
there been proper accommodations
for the wrestling Lacroix would have
had a much harder time OF 1t.
The preliminary between the
"Lacroix sons" was an exhibition
that was enjoyed by all. The little
fellows showed remarkable skill and
auickness and won the approval OF
the Audience. :.
