WERE WELL SUPPLIED
Immigration Officer Wis. its Tombstone in Ref-
 erence to Others

Jack Foster was in Tombstone to- day on Chinese deportation case be- fore ommissioner A l. Grow. Mir Foster told of the sensational arrest of Is Chinaman, which occurred at E Paso on Monday, details of which appeared in the Fl Paso Herald:
 Eighteen Chinese were arrested in c box car that had been set out in the Texas and Pacific freight yards for shipment to the American Smelling 6 Refining company at Chicago.
 The arrest was made by immigra- ton inspector Nelson, of the Fl Paso office. The Chinese were concealed in a box car which had been loaded with silver ure at the smelter and had been sealed by both the railroad company and bonded by the custom house.
 None of the seals had been broken on the car, the Chinese having been smugglej into the car by means of a door fastening which had been cut in such way that the seals were left intact.
 The Chinese were provided with food and water for the long trip they expected to make to Chicago.

D EM 0CRATIC RALLY
Hon. Henry E. Ashurst And Other Prominent
 Speakers Present

As announced in yesterdays PRos- PEcToR, tomorrow night the Dem- cratic party of Cochise county
 'nder the auspices of the Bryan- smith club of Tombstone will hold their rally at Schieffelin hall. In the absence of Delegate Mark smith, who vas to address the meeting, but has oeen called to more important work in the national campaign, other speak CTS of state wide reputation and prom thence will be present, among them the Hon. Henry E. Ashurst, of Flag staff, whose ability as 8 public speaker is well known to Arizonans. Those of our citizens who wish to hear the Democratic side of the campaign pre- sented fairly, eloquen,ly and convinc- ingly should attend and give the dis tinguished orator and guest hearty reception and an attentive hearing
 The Democrats will be there in force, and our Republican friends are cor dially invited. Music will be furnished by the Tombstone band.

FOR THE GOOD CAUSE Tombstone Will Pardon Our Marks UnseI-
 fish Act

Although the democrats Of Tomb. stone feel keenly disappointed because of Mark Smiths inability to keep his contemplated engagement to speak to the citizens Of the historic old city wherein he began bis famous career, still the know ego that he will be a bulwark of strength to the great Com moner reconciles them to what other wise would have been cause for deep regret. There is no need of Marks presence here insofar as his victory at the polls is concerned. While the Republican campaign managers are pretending to chortle with glee over what they call his attempt to ''quit," the fact that Bryan's desire to have Arizona's peerless publicist cover cer- tain eastern states, was only satisfied after extensive correspondence, is in- disputsble proof of the fact that Mark Smith unselfshly decided to abandon his own political interests because of his admiration for the greatest private citizen and next president of this re. public.

 Attorney Richardson of Douglas was in Hermosil,o Monday, at which time it was believed that a permanent peace arrangement was made between the Ysqui head men and the Sonora government.
 He stated that Monday four Yaquis, evidently men of influence in the tribe, came to Hermosillo under flag of truce and were conducted at once into the presence of Governor Cubillas and one of the army officers.
 A conference was held between the Indians and the officials which lasted for some time and after the close of which tke Indians were escorted to the outskirts of the city and left to go their way into the hills.
 No definite report as to what took place at the conference was given out, Rumor has it that arrangements were whereby the hostile h. dian. will surrender immediately.

The county candidates of both par ties are in the field and working with might and main to achieve success at the coming election. In this matter. however, the Democrats have greatly the advantage on account of the fact that the county is strongly Demo- cratic. But the Republicans are work ing hard, not with the hope of elect ing their entire ticket, but with the hope that they may by some possibil- ity pull two or tbree of their men through as they did two years ago.
