I arrived at Bowie, the junction point on the Southern Pacific for the Globe road Here a wait of a few hours was necessary, affording time to gather a few notes concerning this point. Bowie is the name of the rail- road station, while the name of the postoffice is Teyiston. J. H. Teyis, one of the early pioneers of Arizona, settled here long before the Southern Pacific railroad was built; he put down a we'll and secured water, established a mercantile business and the place became an overland stage station. Af- ter the railroad was built TeviS made a deal with the railroad company, turning over land for depot and side tracks and in return the company built hotel which Captain Tevis ran for years and until the dining cars were brought into service it was an eating station for all trains The place is much the same as it has been for the last twenty years with the exception of recent enlargements of the railroad facilities since the build ing of the line of road to Globe. This is now a branch of the Southern Pa cific and one of the best paying lines in the territory of Arizona During the last eighteen months the entire line. to Globe, a distance of 125 miles, has been practically rebuilt; all of the new grade has not been completed and the new steel bridge over the Gila river at San Carlos is just now ready to be put up on great cement but mentS which have been completed: At Bowie I learned that from 5000 to 3500 cars were handled in the yards there every month for account of the Globe road; I also learned that the Southern Pacific has recently pur- chased 220 acres of land at Bowie, but the object of the purchase was not known It is expected at Bowie that the headquarters of the Gila Valley, Globe and Northern railroad will soon be moved from Globe to Bowie and this expectation is strengthened by the fact that the lessee of the railroad hotel has been given ground and will soon erect a new hotel building, the old one being required for additional railroad offices. A gentleman closely connected with the Randolph, lines in the territory said last night that he expected 10 see the Southern Pacific line. now coming up the YaQui river in Sonora, make connection with the main line of the Southern Pacific at Bowie instead of at Cochise station by way of Pearce; according to his be- lief the line would follow the San Simon valley down to Bowie from the international line, crossing at the San Bernardino ranch, east of Doug las. In his opinion the Southern Pa cific will reach Douglas from Cananea by the line which will come from Imuris to connect with the Yaqui riv- CT branch in the vicinity of the San Bernardino ranch, on the south side of the international line.

Seventeen years ago made my first
 trip to the Gila valley in Graham coun-
 ty, travelling by stage from Globe to
 Bowie; then the pioneer farmers, con-
 sisting of Texans in the lower end of
 the valley in the vicinity of Fort Thom-
 as, Mormons in the center of the val
 ley, including Pima and Thatcher, and
 Mexicans In the upper end of the val
 ley. At that time only a ranch here
 and there had been cleared and plant ed. The stage road through the val ley was most of the way through for ests of mesquite with now and then a clearing where the timber had been cut and burned into charcoal which
 was the first fuel used in smelling cop per in the Clifton mining district Now the valley Is carpeted with green for more than thirty miles up and down the river, from ,Splomonyille to Fort Thomas, with only an occasional spot of unimproyed ground. The grain and alfalfa are looking splendid; great fields of wheat and barley now waist high and already beginning to turn yellow and ripening for the harvest; much of the alfalfa has already been cut and mowers were in operation on. many ranches. The water supply is reported to be good as yet, but the river is falling and unless rain comes early in the summer the supply may be inadequate for keeping the alfalfa crops growing. Last year was the rec ord of this valley in amount of crops produced and the amount of money re- ceived for the grain, hay and other products sold. The last of the hay crop was only shipped away during the last two weeks and 1t brought the owners $14 per ton loaded on the cars. An acre planted to alfalfa and watered we'll through the season will yield not less than six tons to the acre; this would bring s60 per acre at an average price of $10 per ton which was received last year for the hay crop. Grain sold last year for as high as $1.50 per hundred pounds and will yield from thirty to fifty bushels to the acre. Several years ago a farmer bought a fortv-acre tract of alfalfa, paying for it $50 per acre: the crop for one year paid for the land besides paying for it's share of keeping up the canal from which it was watered. T will have something more to say about the Gila valley in future letter.

 FOR MAYOR This Is the Latest Polit-
 ical Gossip. FOLLOWING AFTER BURTON Republicans Believe Nick Will Bs
 Popular Candidate. Possible Candidacy of Mir. Long, worth Is Now Receiving the
 Careful Consideration
 of Both Parties.
FOLLOWING AFTER BURTON
BY '. R. HoRNADY.

Cincinnati, O., Sept. 15.-(SpeciaL)- Having put Congressman Burton for ward in Cleveland in an effort to wrest the office of Mayor from Tom l.. John son and the .eity administration from the Democrats. there is now talk of placing Congressman Nick Longworth in the field for Mayor of Cincinnati, with view of wrestling the municipal government from the hands of the Democrats of this city.
 While the suggestion was lightly regarded when first advanced. the pos sible candidacy of Mir. Longworth is now receiving the careful considera- tion of politicians of both parties. It Is we'll -k6own that he would prefer to remain in Congress, but 1t Is argued that the same Influences that brought Burton Into the arena at Cleveland could be used on Longworth here. Those who favor putting him in the case use the argument that he would be able to reconcile the hostile fac tions and would go before the people with the prestige of having frequently and always successfully appeared be- fore the people in the role of candi- date. 1t is also argued that his White House connections would be of assist ance to hifl, as would the fact that he belongs to one of the oldest Cincinnati families, and Is 8 man of wealth and ability.
 It is generally recognized that the Republicans will have to put their best foot forward in the approaching race, if they are to oust the Demo- crats, and in the opinion of many, Lofagworth Is the most promising piece of Republican material at hand.

UPRISING OF THE MASSES Vast Mob Throngs Paris Streets. FALLERES IS DENOUNCED PopuIace Is Indignant Over Soleil- lant Escaping Guillotine. Newspapers of Paris Loudly Condemn
 Failure of the President to
 Permit Law to Take
 It's. Course.

Paris, Sept. 15.--The increasing in- dignation of the masses against the escape from the guillotine of Soleillant, known as the 'Monstrous vioiater and murderer" whose sentence to death for the atrocious murder of a 12-year- old girl. was commuted last week by President Fallieres to life imprfson- ment. was expressed today in a series of the most curious public manifesto tlons that have occurred in France for long time. The demonstration, de- spite the fact that several arrests were made, was almost entirely orderly. Many women participated.
 The protest was organized not so much against Solieillant as to express the voice of the populace against the wave of unspeakable crimes commit ted on little girls which lately has increased to an alarming degree and which 1t iy feared the communication of the sentence of Soleillant will only stimulate. Several thousand persons were engaged in demonstrations at various points of the city, and especi- ally large was the crowd in the Place Ambroise. near which lived little Mar tha Eberding, the victim of Soieiilant
 The rage of the women of this dis trict has been great since President Fallieres showed clemency to Soliel- lant Tfey assembled, !. this afternoon with their husbands Sand others of their sympathizers and were aug merlteof by crowds of curious persons. Their orderly cries for Justice were quickly changed to cries of Death to Soleillant," ard Down with Fallieres,' % as the procession, led by a woman, who carried a little girl on her shoul- ders, with the purpose of indicating the object of the manifestation, moved toward the Place de la Republique. Soon the streets were choked by vast mob .and the police reserves were call ed out to disperse 1t, The parade, however, assembled again. and several of the mort violent demonstrators were arrested
 The newspapers of Paris are devot- ing great npace to the soieillent case. Many of them loudly condemn the fall ure of President Faillieres to permit the law to take its course, and all of them agree that the commufation of this sentence signifes the passing for- ever of the guillotine from France. Some of the journals express the opin- ion that the escape of Soleillant from the guillotine only places a premium on crime.
 The entire question of crime will be taken up at the approaching session of Parliament, especially as Paris, and other latge cities are becoming alarm ingly infested with another type of criminal known as The Apache" who in the secluded sections almost daily maim and rob and sometimes murder their victims. Their weapon always is the knife and, gathering in bands, they often wantonly stab pedestrians and frequently policemen, merely for the sake of stabbing.
