UNIONS FAKES AND FLUKEs.

The morning paper does not attempt
to deny that its staff correspondent
faxed his alleged dispatch from Hepp-
ner Tuesday morning and that he sent
his story from Pendleton Monday
night The alleged dispatches
from "Heppner via Lexington
in this mornings paper also bear con-
vincing internal evidence that the cor
respondent had not yet reached Hepp-
ner last night. The Statesman is re
liabIy informed that the Unions cor
respondent attempted to make the
trip from Pendleton 10 Heppner by
team Monday night. but was prevented
by a severe thunder storm that arose
and turned back.
Yesterday he changed his route and
took the O. R. & n. train TO lone,
where last night he met Council
man Mclean. H. S. Blandf0rd
and James KidwelI of this city
returning from Heppner, and from
them he got his story Of condi-
tons in the stricken town. Later he
went by train to Lexington. nine
miles from Heppner, the washed-out
railroad track not being repaired be
You'd the former place. Perhaps, if he
has had good luck and has not been
driven back by another thunder storm.
he has hoOfed it into Heppner by this
time, too late to give any important
news to the outside world. The other
alleged correspondent of the morning
paper at Heppner is the Spokesman
Review correspondent who reached
there some time today He has
sent very full reports to his paper and
TO the press association to which it
belongs. but it is noticeable that the
service this press association doles out
to the Union is very meager in com
parison with what appears in other
morning papers.
Early yesterday morning direct tel
ephOne communication with HeppneI
was reestablished and it was through
this means that the Statesman yester
day was enabled to give its very full
report. Any reader who will compare

Passing of Joseph Thompson.

The death of Joseph Thompson, who for many years had been one of No gales most highly respected and pro minent citizens, will be learned with genuine regret by hundreds of people both in Arizona and Sonora, who knew and loved him for his many sterling traits of character.
 After several months of intense suffering from cancer in the throat and mouth, which dreadful disease medical science was unable to cure, the end came last Tuesday morning about five o'clock, in the presence of his family and surrounded by kind and loving friends who did all in their power to make his passing easy
 Deceased was a native of England, having been born in Cumberland coun- ty in 1848, ffty-fv years ago. He came to the United Staes when a mere boy and was one of Arizona's early pioneers; he helped blaze the trails and make the dessert blossom as the rose. Many years ago Mir. Thompson came to Nogales, where until the time of his death he made his home, although much of his time was spent at the various mining camps ill Sonora in the employe of mining companies. He was very industrious and economical and when he died left his family in comfortable circumstances.
 A wife, two sons-Joseph, Jr, and little Carlisle, and two daughters Mrs. Mel Van Treese and Mrs. T. Healy are left to mourn his passing, to whom TIE VIDETTE extends sym pathy in this their hour of sorrow. The funeral was held Tuesday after noon from the Catholic church, inter- meat being in the Nogales cemetery.

Pope Plus x.

"Wednesday mornings Associated press dispatches contained the follow ing: Rome, July 4-The conclave, after being in session four days, today elected Giuseppe Sarto, patriarch of Venice, as pope to succeed Leo XIII, and Sarto now reigns at the vatican and over the Catholic world as Plus K
 'Guiseppe Sarto, the new pope, was born in Riesi, diocese of Trevise June p, 1885, and was created cardinal by Leo XIII at the consistory of June '12, 1893, receiving the title of $. Der. nardo delle Terme. He is also patri- arch of Venice since June. 1893, and bishop of Mantua. He belongs to the ecclesiastical congregations of bishops and regulars, sacred rites, indulgence and sacred relics
 Cardinal Sarto enjoys great popu- larity in his diocese, and is honored by all for his purity, for the strict up rightness of his life and for liberal ideas. He is a modest and agreeable man, highly cultivated, very kind hearted and still strong and robust in spite of his sixty eight years. He has never taken a great part in the politi- cal and public life of the church; but l divided his time between study and good works. Although most faithful to the holy see he was presented to the king and queen of Italy in Venice on the occasion of royal visit. He has been considered among the more liberal members of the Italian Epis- copate and Sacred college. He is rath- CT timid in expressing an opinion. It is said that Leo XIII always thought very highly of him, and sided with him on one occasion when Sarto dis approved of Rampolla's policy.
 The election of Cardinal Sarto may be regarded as defeat for the spe- cial vatican entourage. He has never resided in Rome and has not been identified with any of the vatican fac tions He was one of the best dis cussed men in Italy ten years ago, when on his preferment to the Vene- tian patriarch in 1893 he encountered a determined opposition on the part of the Italian government before he could take possession of his see"

Mines in Yuma County.

According to the Yuma Sun the Belle of Arizona group of gold bearing quartz claims, lying within two miles of the Guadalupe mine and about eight miles east of Quartzsite, have been bonded by the owners. H. A. Carter. Jerry Bratton and Wayne Wheeling, to Wm. AJ . Kellogg, of Hart ford, Conn.
 It is stated that the amount of the bond is S25, ,0OO. As the discovery and location shafts show free gold in white quartz from the grass roots, and and all six of the claims show good values from the first stroke of the pick, it is but fair to assume that extensive work will develop rich property.
 Mr. Kellogg has long been active in the management and development of Guadalupe property, in which he is interested, and with the eastern back ing, of which he is assured, will place the Arizona Belle well to the front of Arizona mines.
 The Quartzsite district will have a number of surprises for the public after the resumption of active work in September.
