The camp is the largest and most prosperous on the Pacific coast The wealth of the United Verde property is untold and unknown. There are hundreds of men in the employ of the company and the machinery used in connection with the property is the finest and most costly in the Rocky mountains. It would be idle to attempt to give any description of this mine in a political correspondence

 A. J. Doran then addressed the meet ing and was greeted with applause. He has numbers of personal friends in this camp who have known of and will vouch for his sterling qualities as a man, and his friendship for the min CTS. He declared himself in favor of statehood, which was received with approval. He made a splendid impres- sion, and comparisons were made by many present, between Doran's plain and intelligent manner of speaking on the subjects which. he atiscussed, and Mark Smiths demagogical, spread eagle effort a few days since.

 MT. Doran will carry this precinct by a nice majority. Smith will be third man. Doran left on the morn ing train and goes to Tucson, where he will open the cam paign in the south. He has made hosts of friends in northern Arizona who will give him a handsome plurality on November 3. He is enthusiastic over his success N1hus far, and he goes south to carry on the good work which will save the territory from Buckley O'Neilism, and what would necessarily retard the progress of the territory ten years if the Populistic demagogue was elected to congress.
 Public sentiment in Doran's favor will continue to increase from now on Smith is hardly mentioned in the north, and O'Neil is losing ground every day. The people realize that the only reason why he should be sent to congress is as one old miner expresses it: Because Buckley wants to go" | pr AWNING IN THN TENT
