POLITICAL POINTERS.

The Copper Era is booming Hon.
Charley shannon for congress. Shan
non il miner and a good man in any
country-Mineral Wealth.
The Clifton ERA has proposed Hon.
G.. NJ. Shannon for congressional dele
gate from Arizona. The gentleman
named is in the available class j. clean,
popular and petent.-Ei Paso News.
The Copper Era has announced the
name OF John Blrdno, editor of the
Graham County Guardian for the Ter
ritorial Council. BirdnO i a democrat
that would represent the people,
Mineral Wealth.
Word comes from Northern Arizona
TO the effect that a strong effort Is be-
ing made to spring a rift in the Will
son forces. but thus far the Democracy
stands solid for Wilson. 1t is also re-
ported that Maricopa county Is for
Wilson If this be- so il would seem
that General J. Frank Wilson will be
the next Democratic nominee for Con-
gress in Arizona Tucson Star.
The following from the Guardian is
somewhat indefinite, but certainly
leaves the impression that John J..
Birdno would not refuse the nomiua-
tion for the council from this district:
The editor OF the Guardian very
much appreciates the kind words of the
ERA and the well wishes OF the friends
who made tho suggestion, and while
it is true that we have always been a
hard worker for Democratic success,
in and out OF season, there are many
men in Graham county worthy to be
honored by the party with the nomi-
nation for this honorable position.
The newspapers are saying ell kinds
of good things about Mark Smith on
account of his gallant fight for state
hood. The Arizona Republican says
that he is the only delegate Arizona
has ever had and that he has borne
the brunt OF the fight for five years.
The Gazette, commenting on the sub
ject of Smiths illness and the passage
of the statehood measure through the
lower house, says: The entire terri
tory has been profoundly impressed
by the affection of the Hon. Mark
Smith. Perhaps no one in the terri
tory of Arizona knows as many OF our
people as he does. Mark Smith has
labored long to secure statehood for
Arizona and that he should be stricken
on the floor OF the house OF representa-
tives after an eloquent plea for state
hood, would forever make of him a
martyr should Arizona now become 4
state. Mark Smith has served the
people Of this territory many times as
their representative, ably and well.
His friends are many and his enemies
few.-kingman Miner.
The copper era., 1902-05-22

The Bulletin is willing to risk the guess thus
early in the Arizona political game that the
democratic nominee for congress will either be
Mark Smith or Col J. +. Wilson Bulletin.
The Bulletin, and the Kelly combine
OF newspapers, have TO a certain OK
tent ridiculcd Mr. Shaunon's candidacy,
but this is the first announcement that
the Kellys profor either Smith or Will
son to home man. The above editorial
does not exactly say that in so many
words, but it means it, just the same.
Mr.. shannon is the equal of either OF
tho above named gentlemen in intelli-
gonce and when it comes to principal,
integrity aud good moral character, he
is head and shoulders above any man
whose name has yet been mentioned for
congress. His political and official
record is absolutely pure and clean,
and his private life is beyond reproach.
lie is n man of energy and intensity Of
purpC Sc, and if elected he will ever be
found ut his post OF duty attending to
business. He can be elected beyond
question, while the nomination of either
Smith or Wilson will at once precipi-
tate fight in the party which will a.
most certainly lead To republican
victory. MIR. Shannon is ono of the
pioneers of Arizona, and has accom-
plished much for the development of
the territory. He is staunch aud
true friend OF the miner and prospector
He has fought Indians and built trails,
that others like the Kcllys have fol-
lowed to fortune. AS an orator he is
not the equal of Mark Smith, and but
few men are, but many of the most
successful men in congress are not
noted for oratory. Mr.. shannon will
receive the support Of Graham county
in the convention, and he certainly
deserves the support OF the county
newspapers.

Coal Mine Holocaust.

Knoxville, Tenn, May 19.-An ex-
plosion occurEsda in the Fraterville
and Thistle coal mines, in the Coal
Creek district, this morning, with APP
palling results. There were about 300
as known only one has escaped. He
was blown out of the mine by the force
of the explosion, and though seriously
injured, will probably recover. Flames
are pouring out OF the shafts, tunnels
and vent holes, and there is scarcely a
hope entertained that any one under
ground in the mines can survive.
George n. Camp, the superintendent
of the Thistle mine, has made an Of
fetal statement in which he estimates
the dead at $50.

WOULD it not be a good idea for
prospectors to advertise their proper
ties the same as stock companies do
their stock? There is no reason why
a prospector should SIT in his tent year
after year awaiting .he possible arrival
OF capitalist, when by judicious ad-
vertising one might be secured in a
few weeks. An advertisement similar
to tho following would attract desired
results:

Colonel Boomerang De-Smith, one OF
Clifton's most noted artists, gave a
dining at his palatial mansion, corner
Topaz and Ruby avenue,-Hill's addi-
tom onday evening at $50. The
Colonel's home was decorated with
cut alfalfa, onions in pots and
turnip tops, arranged most con-
spicuously throughout the large hall
and dining room. Three candles in
beautiful broken-bottle candelabra lent
soft radiance to the scene which gave
it more the appearance OF fairy home
than the 'den" of bachelor. The
dining was very select affair, invi-
tations being issued only to DR.. ].

Washington, December 23.-rherc has

paign 10 1904. 1t is noticeable that there
Is no marked difference of opinion I'm the
premises. IT IS agreed that the question
Of free silver is to have no part in the con
test, but aside from this well informed
and conservative democrats see no ncccs-
sity for any radical changes in the demo
cratic platform. 1t is the opinion of many
that the democratic candidate for the
presidency should not only be in accord
with the platform to be adopted in 1901
but should also he able to show that he
stood by the party in the dark days Of 1896
and 1000.
Representative Cooper of Texas does not
agree with some Of his colleagues ms to the
qualification of the democratic party ia
