Fort Wayne, Ind, May 5.-Ten
known dead, several missing and
thirteen seriously injured are the re-
suits of a fire that destroyed the New
Aveline, Fort Wayne's principal hotel,
carly in the day. Chief OF Police
Anckenbruck declares he believes that
twenty bodies are still in the ruins.
The hotel register was consumed
by the fire, and there is no accurate
means OF determining who is missing.
The complete destruction OF the in
terror of the hotel makes the work of
recovering bodies a difficult task. A
confused heap of charred wood bricks
and twisted Orders is piled up be-
tween the walls 10 the second story
Piece by piece this must be removed
before the roll of the dead can be
completed Some of the bodies taken
out are mangled and charred beyond
recognition.
Night Clerk Gives Alarm.
The fire was discovered at $3.50 In
the morning in the elevator shaft by
Night Clerk Hopkins. He rushed to
the upper floors, alarming the guests
until the flames. which had spread
with great rapidity, drove him back.
His efforts. however, saved many
lives. The hotel was erected half a
century ago, and the woodwork was as
dry as finder. II burned like match
wood. and within a few minutes from
the time the fire was discovered the
whole interior of the hotel was a mass
OF flames, and the only means Of
escape left was by the windows.
The fire department rescued many
by means OF ladders: but some. fren.
zied by the rush of the flames, leaped
from windows to the street.
r. 5. Johnson of Pana, H. jumped

a balcony and bounded far into the

died a short time later in st. Joseph's

VERY SOON

Yesterday in Salt Lake City. while
there with the party of newspaper men
from the east. Mr.. Blanchard of the
reclamation service said. among other
things:
There is little probability that any
new projects will be undertaken in the
near future. There are now 27 or 2S
projects under way, and as these will
cost about S41, 900. 900 there will be no.
thing available for new enterprises for
some time from the fund appropriated
by the government for the work of
reclamation.
Other projects will be taken up as
soon as there is money for the work.
This is expected from the sale of pub
lie lands and from the settlers in the
districts opened
"In the fall the work upon the
Strawberry valley project will be
pushed with vigor. The Strawberry
tunnel has already been driven a mile
into the mountain. AS it will be 3
miles long. miles remain unfinished.
The cost of the Strawberry project
will be about $3.O0o,OOO and about CO..
900 acres of land will be reclaimed"
The Strawberry valley project is the
only Utah project of the government

"The outburst of enthusiasm after
the nomination of William Jennings
Bryan at the democratic national con-
vention at Denver was the greatest
scene ever witnessed at a convention"
said p. C. Baker. general manager of
the Detroit News, who arrived in Salt
Lake yesterday afternoon with several
other newspaper men who are touring
the west for the purpose of gathering
information concerning the conserva-
tion of the country's resources. TT
may be that 1 say this because my rec
objection of twelve years ago when
Bryan was first nominated, is some
what dimmed. But it is safe to say
that the demonstration at Denver was
one of the great events in the history
of party conventions in America

The climax of petty and puerile
campaigning has surely been reached
when the republican press can find no.
thing worse to say about William j.
Bryan than to accuse him of seeking
the presidential nomination on the
democratic ticket in order to draw
larger audiences when he lectures and
secure subscriptions to the Commoner
Surely such thoughts are worthy only
of the smallest minds, eager to say
something detrimental to the cause of
the great Nebraska leader and unable
to find anything in his private life or
public career upon which to base
charges. The desperate straits in
which the republican party finds itself
at the beginning of the campaign of
1908 is amply proven by the charac-
ter of the ammunition used in the big
guns, and the little ones as well.-Salt

In his response to the official toast
assigned him. Mr.. Sands referred to
the fact that the name was still the
High Line canal project. and that Sec
retary Garfield had refused to consider
the change of name that added his
name to the project
1t will be remembered that The Sem
tinel took the proposition a long time
ago, when the proposition was first
broached, that the name be changed to
the Garfield canal. that Mr.. Garfield
would not consider the changing of a
name that had been so long associated
with the project.
To further the plan to name it the
Garfield ditch. a resolution was intro
duced and passed unanimously at the
last banquet of the Chamber of Com
merce, which was to give the new
name official recognition.
The position that The Sentinel then
took has been justified. For all the
years that men have been working for
shat great irrigation project the name
AEIigh Line canal has been given it.
The government records show it as
the High Line canal of the Grand riv-
er project
1t would have been matter of graf
ification to the people generally had
Mr. Garfield permitted his name to be
attached to the canal, but years ago
the government took an advanced po-
sition upon the question of naming
government projects. that they should
not be named out of a matter of COM
pliment to living officials of the gov
ernment, but only after an honorable
record left to the government and af-
ter their death should the government
projects be so named.

REPUBLICAN, RALLY
 AT COPPER HILL

Copper Hill did herself proud last Thursday evening at the biggest polit ical gathering ever held in that section The republican candidates were present in body, and number of enthusias tic addresses were made. The first speech of the evening was made by l. l.. Henry, candidate for district attor- ney. He was followed by Hon. J. C. Adams, of Phoenix, who in telling convincing speech paid his respects to the democratic candidate for delegate to congress. Mir. Adams fully answered the oft-repeated question of "What has Mark Smith done in congressG' by showing what he did not do and what he might have done. His speech was a very logical and earnest one in support of Ralph Cameron.
 At the close of Mir Adams speech m automobile arrived from Gibson s camp with Ralph Camreon, J. E. Morri. son, j. E. Wright and M. F.. Mccarthy aboard. The party was ushered imme' diately into the hall, which by the way was densely crowded with the people of the camp, and the speeehmaking was continued until a late hour.
 After MT. Cameron and party had been introduced personally to the as semblage, J. E. Morrison made an ad, dress of some fifteen minutes, which was we'll received by the audience. He was followed by Ralph Cameron who was greeted with continued applause, the large crowd giving close and almost breathless attention to his remarks, oe- cassionally interrupting with applause. The speaking was concluded by J. E. Wright of Tucson. MT. Wright made a short address, which was we'll received by the audience, notwithstanding the lateness of the hour.
 The meeting was concluded with a dance, and almost the entire audience remained to enjoy this feature. The whole party returned to Globe at l clock very much pleased with the trip and the prospects for good vote at Copper Hill.

THE ELEVENTH HOUR

The most despicable forces in poll. ties await the eleventh hour. It is in the closing hours of the campaign that desparate chances arc taken and the long hazard given, when excitement fires the brain, consumes the reason and lays waste the moral sense. It is tho hour when the man with something up his sleeve appears like a mystic who materializes ont of nothing false bogies and strikes in tho dark the foulest blows. Through the early days of the the fight he has lain hidden. Then the men known for integrity and upright ness of purpose were called upon to wield the weapon of sound reasoning and intellectual appeal'to the thinking voter. But now the attack is turned on the weak, minimizing and viscious, and when the failure of honest methods to win is apparent, the fight is then fin ished with the use of corruption, intim. idation and falsity. In this hour the voter should be warned and forewarned. The eleventh hour gong sounds many surprises. The twelfth hour brings dis ilusionment too late--the mischief has been done.
 He is only political mountebank who iuggles figures, distorts facts and states half the truth in his attempted "eriticism of men who have been in business for many years and have held public positions with honor long before the criticizer was weaned

A TIDAL WAVE FOR CAMERON
Chairman Hoval A. Smith Declares That Victory for the Republican
 Candidate Is Sure

Hon. Hoval A. Smith, chairman of the territorial republican central com mittee, has issued the following state . ment under dat of October 2s:
 "Everything points to tidal wave victory for Ralph Cameron for delegate to congress. Up to Sunday evening had received reports from every county committee in the territory. l had i'm pressed upon the committees the neces- nty for conservatism and have no req son to doubt the authenticity of their replies.
 According to these reports based on polls and estimates, Cameron will certainly carry every county except Co thise, Gila, Graham, Santa Cruz and possibly Mohave. The report from Mo have gives that county to Cameron by 100, 80 I am placing Mohave on our side by that margin. but we can give them Mohave and Pinal and then win easily.
 "I believe Cameron will win by no: less than 1900. We only claim Mari copa by $50, whereas we will not be surprised if the plurality reaches 800. The heavy increase in registration there is largely from the republican middle west states, and republican.
 "In Pima county there is a large increase also from republican states and in the young voters. Cameron will get more than an even break in the increase of 494, and his plurality there will not be less than $50.
 The reports from Yavapai are glow ing. Cameron sentiment has swept the county and he will get not less than $50 plurality over Smith there.
 "In Yuma the increase in rCgistra ton is 302. It is largely from repub- hean states and agricultural. l am in formed on most reliable reports that two-thirds of the increase is republican. Yuma county will give Cameron 900 plurality. Nowhere is the Cameron and statehood sentiment tsronger than along the Colorado in the southwest.
 "Coconino is simply teeming with Cameron enthusiasm. The underhanded attacks by the democratic papers on Cameron s record as sheriff have proved boomerang, especially in the north, and Cameron will make clean sweep from Mohave to Apache.
 fWe give Smith Cochise by 250 and Graham and Gila by 150 each. That is liberal. We shall be surprised if we do not get an even break in Graham. We also give Smith Santa Cruz by 100, but we hope to make at least an even break there. The campaign has devel. oepd into largely non-par.isan affair with the slogan, Cameron and State hood accomplishment vs. Mark Smith and Twenty-Two Years of Hot Air We know absolutely that if Cameron is elected statehood will be accomplished That is what the people want now above all else. It certainly looks like they arc going to get it.. .'
