are yet looking for someone 10 nomi-

strong opposition to the denomination
of w. H. Andrews. the present dele
gate, but so far there has been no
agreement among the republicans as
to who shall be ramed. Every indica-
ton points to a democratic victory
this fall and on that account there
are not many republicans seeking the
opportunity to oppose Larazola, who
is a brilliant campaigner and who en-
joys the confidence Of the peope. 1t
is believed that the republican ma
chine could bring about the nomina-
ton of Andrews. but it is not believed
that the machine will dare force his
nomination because of the widespread
opposition to the Pennsylvania.

DOUGLAS, July Especial. D
The publication of the official call
for the territorial democratic conven
ton on August 8, for the purpose OF
nominating a candidate for delegate
to congress, will no doubt act as a hur-
ry-up call for those who may be con-
templating seeking official and politi-
cal honors in Cochise county this fail.
So far there has been no more than
mere tentative" discussion of the pO-
litical situation and probable results
this fall. Some of the republican pap
ers have been real busy in predicting
what viii and what will not happen in
the county. Especially the Bisbee
Miner seems to be wise to the desires
and intentions of the democrats and
especially active in an effort to bring
on jealousy and inharmony in demo
cratic action. But the democrats are
not TO be disturbed by anything said
by the press of the enemy. The demo
Gratis of Cochise may be depended up
on to name ticket at the proper time
composed of worthy and efficient men
and in a manner that will insure DEM
ocratic unity in the campign between
the convention and the election.

So far there is no reason TO expect
anything more than a friendly rivalry
between opposing candidates. There
are many deserving ana competent
democrats in the county and from
these candidates will be chosen in the
regular way and there will be no oc-
casion for fighting any one on the
ticket after he has been chosen by the

PHOENIX, July S.-The movement
for the organization of the Hearst in
dependence League of Arizona struck
herr Saturday morning. The man
who brought the movement along
with him was T. ]. Eigholz, national
organizer for Hearst's Independence
League, and prominent leader IF the
new party in California.
Mr. Eigholz arrived from California
on the morning train and viii spend
the next two days here interviewing
Democrats and Republicans alike in
an endeavor to enroll them under The
banner of Willie" Judging from ex-
pressions the Hearst representative
from California did not meet with a
cordial reception. Four years ago
Hearst had quite a following in this
neck of the woods when he was a
candidate for the presidential nomi-
nation on the Democrats ticket. Ed
gene Brady O'Neil led the fight for
Hearst in this county at that time
but it is reported that he turned a
deaf ear to the entFeaties OF the
Hearst organizer. Since Hearst has
forsaken the Democratic party his
followers here four years ago appear
to have forsaken him.
Mr. Eiglolz is to have charge of the
missionary work to be done during
the next three months in Arizona and
New Mexico. He goes from here to
Albuquerque and thence to Chicago.
where the national convention of the
new party will meet on July q.
at is the intention of the Iadepend-
ence League To organize a party in
Arizona in time for the November
election, and a full county ticket will
be put forward in each county from
congressman to constable" said Mr..
Eigholz to a newspaper man this
morning. An analysis of the mem
bership of the League in California,
Illinois. Massachusetts and New
York shows that there are many
former Republicans as well as Demo
Gratis who are joining the new party.
1 do not expect TO see William Ran
dolph Hearst nominated at Chicago
on July 81. There is strong talk OF
offering the presidential nomination
to Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin.

ator will accept" said the organizer
From here EigholZ will go to Pres
colt and Kingman and thence to New
Mexico. For good and sufficient rea-
SONS the paid organizer from Califor-
mia will not visit the counties of Pr
ma, Cochise, Graham and ella.

1t is amusing to watch the repub-
Leans sweat over the matter of who
shall have charge of the national cam
paign as chairman of the committee.
Whoever is named as chairman will
simply be a figurehead to carry out
the orders that will be issued from
Oyster Bay. Roosevelt made the can
didate, made the platform and he will
manage the campaign and the admin
istration in case Taft should win the
election.

Indications point to the fact that
the rainy season has begun in Ari,
IONA. Several good rains have been
reported during the past week in var.
ious sections of the territory. If there
is a good fal of rain it will prove a
blessing to both the cattle and agri.
cultural industries of the territory. In
the ella and Salt river valleys there
has been a shortage of water for irri.
eating growing crops while the cattle
ranges have been in bad condition for
sixty days.

the funds Of the protected industries
of the country; now the republicans
have put in a hurry-up cal for tariff
revision at a special session of con
gress to be called for that purpose af.
ter the coming presidential election.
With such a record behind him is
it strange that the democrats should
insist that Bryan is the logical man
for the presidential candidate at this
time when practically the whole coun-
try is clamoring for the very reforms
for which he has eontended so long?
If Bryan was radical in 1896 he has
lived to see that which was radicalism
then endorsed by the country as nee
essary for the return Of the govern
ment to the people from the hands of
the conservatives who have folded
their hands while the people have
been robbed by the favored classes.
The straddling platform Of the re-
pubIicans is conceded to be the most
meaningless statement of principles
ever promulgated by any political
party since parties were first organ.
lied in this country. The republicans
declare for revision of the tariff. but
re-assert the principle that it is right
to protect the manufacturers of the
country while they plumber the coun'
try to the extent of selling many ar
ticIes made in this country for less in
foreign lands, after paying transports
ton across the seas, than they make
the home consumer pay The republi
cans talk about what they propose to
do for the regulation of the trusts and
protected industries of the country
and then place a man on the ticket
for vice-president who has stood pat
in opposition to every measure Of re
form advocated by the strenuous Ted
dy. r..
What will be the democratic plat
form cannot be said yet or who the
vice-presidentia candidate will be be
but with Bryan as the candidate the
question of platform is not SO import
ant. as he and the principles which he
has always advocated are SO well
known that the campaign must win
or lose largely on his personality.
With Bryan as the candidate on a
Platform which shall demand equal

been created which we believe will
spell defeat for the republicans.

BRYAN THE
CANDIDATE.


1t is now conceded by all, friends
and foes Of William Jennings Bryan,
that the democratic convention now
in session in Denver will nominate
the Nebraskan as the democratic can
didate for president of the United
States. This viii be the third time
Mr.. Bryan has been named by the
democrats of the country as their
standard bearer in a national cam
paign. In 1896 he was nominated in
Chicago after the radical wing of the
party had secured control of the con-
Vention over the conservative or
Cleveland element. In that campaign
he was opposed by many of the lead
ing democrats of the country, many of
them openely, while others were only
willing to sulk in their tents and do
nothing for party success. After one
of the most remarkable personal cam
paigns ever made by any candidate
for president, either before or since,
he was defeated, but there were suffi-
cient states so close in the voting that
if Bryan could have had thirty thous-
and votes in the close states his cleo
ton would have been assured.
Again in 1900 Bryan was renominat-
ed without opposition in Kansas City
and was again defeated at the follow
ing election by a larger vote than the
one which went against him four
years previous.
Four years later Colonel Bryan de-
clined to enter the contest and the
nomination went to Parker and to the
element of the party which had not
agreed with some of the policies of
Bryan. The result showed that the
democrats of the country could not
be depended upon to take backward
step in the reforms which they had
fought for under the leadership OF
Bryan, and Parker was defeated by
one of the greatest popular majOrities
ever cast against presidential .candi.

Now, the democracy again turns to
Bryan as their leader and he viii

first ballot 10 win the nomination un
der the two-thirds rule. For twelve
years he has stood unfinchingly for
reforms in our political system; he
was the first to sound the warning
against the Entertainments being
made on the business interests by the
trust organizations; now this warn
ing has been needed by a republican
president who has won applause fraE
the people because of his attempt Il

mended by Bryan and the democratic
party. Bryan was the first to NIKE
the demand that the railroads of the
country be placed under strict reg
ulation Of the states and the federal
government; this demand has been
recognized as one Of the necessities
of the country by this same repubh'
can president, who has urged il with
vigor. Bryan was the first to recon-
mend that political corruption could

bull terriers had been fighting for
nearly an hour last night, the trustees
of the village of Burnham. with
dozen deputies at their backs. broke
into the city hall, in which the tight

A wild rush for the doors and win

stop the stampede.
The room in which the fight took
place was on the second floor, but u
score of men did not hesitate to jump
from the windows, one man suffer-

flying wedge and charged the depu-

GREAT TIMES
CLOSE AHEAD
SAMUEL NEWHOUSE SAYS MN
ING ACTIVITY WILL EXCEED
THE NEXT THREE YEARS.

IL. NJ Fulmer has returned from IA
business visit TO Salt Lake, where he
reports that there is great deal OF
encouragement felt over the outlook
for mining in particular.
There are many mining men and
mining investors in the city from all
parts of the country. Significant of
the interest being taken by these men
in Nevada is the fact that during last
week seven private cars occupied by
those with mining interests left Salt
Lake for points in this state.
All these visitors are enthusias-
tic over te outlook and without ex-
ception expect the mining camps TO
do great things during the next few
years. Trey are looking forward to
immense development and the open
ing up of a great deal of new country
and are eager 10 acquire interest in
new propositions of real merit and
worth.
They have come west immediate
ly following the election and are here
in unprecedentedly large numbers
considering the time of year As a
rule the eastern investor and mining
man puts his visit off until after the
holidays. They have not waited this
time, but are here to get immediate
action on the improvement in times
and are informing themselves for ac-
tive campaigns in the east immediate
ly on their return.
while in Salt Lake | met Samuel
Newhonse and had an extended talk
with him. Among other things he
said hat he believed firmly that the
three years succeeding January
next would mark the greatest period
i'm the history of mining known 10
this time. He expects ) cent copper
early in the new year and does not
doubt but that all legitimate mining
enterprises and mining country will
experience wonderful prosperity and
the highest of activity. This opinion
is eoineided in by all the big mining
men who have lately had public eX-
preston to make and ought 70 be
exceedingly encouraging in the
camps
