Show t: TRUTH.. 2 Judge King is unquestionably the most popular man. in the Democratic party in the State., He can get the Congressional nomination without a struggle if he wants It, and the way he ran ahead of his ticket at the late election shows that he would be a formidable opponent for anybody the Republicans can put up. Glasmann would go down to certain defeat before King, and probably carry a goodly proportion of his ticket with him. That is the general feeling in the public mind today. Speaking of Glasmann as a possible candidate, Bill is giving out In certain quarters that he is Senator Kearnss choice for Congressman. He even goes so far as to say. that the Senator, under an agreement made when the Legislature was in session a year ago, promised Glasmann his undivided support. Not much credence is given to the allegation, howKing. ever. Judge William M. McCarty was in the city Monday and Tuesday on legal business. The Judge, who is an able and conscientious lawyer, is strongly urged by his friends to become a candidate for the Supreme bench at the next election, but he appears to be lothe to commit himself to that course at present. His term as District Judge has yet three years to run, and he is seriously considering whether to become a candidate at the next election or wait for a couple of years, until Justice Baskins term on the Supreme bench expires. mining notes. er . The banquet of the mining brokers last Saturday afternoon was a very jovial affair, and shows that the brokers are a class of men who can be jolly under adversity. The utmost good fellowship prevailed, and while the fun and nonsense ran high, there was withal a serious business strain observable and a desire to find means to promote the Interests of the exchange and restore to it the confidence of the public which it once enjoyed. From small beginnings and after severe trials, and struggles the mining exchange grew to be a very prosperous institution and a potent factor in the development of the greatest industry of the State. Unwonted prosperity, in fact, was what led to disaster. The brokers, like many others, could stand adversity, but lost their heads in prosperity. The exchange is an institution essential to the prosperity of the mining Industry of the State, and when conduced on legitimate lines it should be encouraged. It can and has done more to bring the mineral resources and possibilities of the State to the notice of investor and capitalists than any other institution the city has ever had, and there is no reason why it should not continue its course of usefulness. It ought to adopt means to protect itself and the public from dishonest promoters and make it so that the fact of a mine being listed on the exchange would a guarantee of its merit and the honesty of ts manage- ment. The brokers as a whole are just as good a set of men as are to be found in any business. Their troubles of the Mrs. Paget, wife of Gen.
