Street Decorations.

The street decorations for the Fourth are very handsome, and show much artistic sense and dis cernment on the part of the com- mittee having the work in hand. The arch at the corner of Morley avenue and Park street, bends across the main thoroughfare of the town from the curbing in front of the L. w. Mix building to that alongside the park. The spring of the arch is about twenty feet above the street level and the structure is fanked by tower on each side that is surmounted by flags. Across each side of the arch is the word WELCOME" in great let ters, and or the towers are panels, in one of which is a portrait of Washington, the other has one of Roosevelt, beneath each the Amer ican shield. In the spring of the arch is the American coat of arms. One side has an inscription read ing "NogaIes 1908-7,00O popula- tion." Upon the other side the inscription reads "Nogales 1910- 12,000 population"

 Evening.

A special to the Tucson Star, dated at Babee June 30th, conveys the following very cheering intel ligence:
 The smeter and mines of tine Greene-Cananea Copper Company at Cananea will resume operations on Sunday evening, July ,. The Star representative Is in possession of authentic information to this effect. For two months word of resumption at Cananea has been reported as set for certain days. but each rumor proved unfounded The announcement here made comes from an absolutely reliable source. Orders have been received at Cananea and on Sunday even ing the shelter will again be placed in operation for the first time in nearly year.
 The resumption of work at the smelter and mine at Cananea means a return of prosperity to the big Sonora camp. A full force of men will not be put on at once, but it will gradually be added to until the output of the mine is greater than it was at the time operations were suspended last fall. For some weeks a force of men has been fill ing up the bins and all is in read mess. A development force has also been at work for several months. Since the shut down great improvements have been made at Cananea. Copper can be made now for nine or ten cents, it Is estimated, while in the supply department there has been re- duction of 50 per cent in the cost.
 The capacity of the reduction plant now doubles that of the for mer equipment, with the same floor space. The former capacity was 50,000 tons of ore per month, and the new plant will be able to handle 100000 when running full force. The economy displayed in the new plant is shown by the fact that the smelter will be able to treat 5000 tons of ore per day with one-half the number of men it took two years ago when the plant was treating 1700 tons or 2200 tons at the time of the shut down. This will save the company in labor alone $500 and $350 gold per day quite an item in the pay roll.

HEAVIEST VOTE EVER PoLLED

The vote cast in the Democratic
State primary Tuesday smashed more
than one record. Not only was Mr..
John Gary Evans defeated by the
biggest majority which has ever been
poled against him, but the total vote
cast has exceeded by probably 10000
the heaviest vote ever before cast In
a second primary in South Carolina.
It is probable that the total vote
viii approximate 100000, and will
therefore equal that of. the first pri-
mary two weeks ago.
Mr. Smith, according to the re-
turns on Thursday morning, leads
Mr.. Evans by 26,583 votes and is
still gaining. His total vote stands
65,328, against 36,745 for Mr.. Evans.
Not until the official returns are
tabulated will the result Of the rail-
road commissioner RS race be definite
ly known. Mr.. Caughm~n is now
leading Mr.. Causler by less than
three b-ndned votes, but the unre-
ported vote may easily put Cansler

close, Mr.. MCLAUGHLIN now having a
small lead over Mr.. Stoll.
In the race for the United States
senate it will be noted that Mr.. Ev-

thousand votes over the vote which
he received in the first primary, two
weeks ago, at which time he polled
1854 votes. Mr.. Smith, in the first
primary, received 3O,O12 votes. His

total vote received by NJ. Evans.
Mr.. Evans had nothing to say for
publication, but stated fhat he would
probably issue a full statement after

Court House at CaIhOOn Burned.

The Mclean county Court House, at
Calhoon, was destroyed by fire, which
was discovered about / o'clock last
Thursday morning. Flames had gain
ed such Roadway that efforts to check
the fire were unavailing. Important
records in both the County and Circuit
Clerks office were destroyed.
The origin of the fire is not known
nor is any special theory advanced
regarding it.
The indictments returned at this
term happened to be in the pockets Of
the Circuit Clerk, and these are prac-
tically all that is left for the court
to try.
Judge Birkhead convened court at
the Calhoon college and tried several
cases.
Nothing has been ascertained as
to the origin of the fire. A night
session Of the court adjourned at 10
o'clock. When the fire was discover
ed shortly before midnight the en-
tire interior was mass of flames.
The Court House was built in 1872
at a cost of about $4,000, and was an
ornament to the town. 1t was insured
for only $4,000 S. 600 in the Cont
mental and $4,000 in the Northwestern.
Many of the records of the County
Clerks office were in a fire-proof safe
and saved, but others of Importance
were destroyed. The Circuit Clerk
records OF suits, orders, ETC., were
lost.
The Beard of County Supervisors
had just completed its revision of the
taxes and all the records were de-
stroyed. An enabling act from the
legislature will be necessary to re-
vive the assessment.

Court here, Judge r. l.. Stout Impress
ed upon the members of the grand
jury that it was their duty to in
quire int2 any charges of intimidation
or destruction of property made by
might riders" Among other things
Judge Stout said: "The conditions
prevailing in other sections of our
State cannot be passed over by us
with Indifference. The outrages
committed at Princeton, Hopkinsville
and Russellville are of great impor-
lance to every State. 1t is not mere
ly local disturbance, and it cannot
be so regarded by any right think
ing man. | do not pretend to say
where lies the blame of those DEM
constructions of lawlessness, but l do
undertake to say that those who
engaged in them are guilty of the
highest crimes and misdemeanors
which have been written against on
our statute books.
"A money standard is not by any
manner Of means the highest stand
ard with which to gauge the sets of
men or the effects of those acts. But
1t is a standard which all men can
understand and appreciate. Measur-
ed by that standard, l believe the
loss to Kentucky occasioned by the
recent lawlessness in the depreciation
of local values at the scenes of
those crimeg, and the further i'll effect
upon all Kentucky properties, is not
less than S5O,OOO,OOO."
