eILA DEMOCRATIC TICKET

The democracy of Gila county may well invite the close scrutiny of the ticket nominated by the county con vention of the party last Saturday, feeling the utmost confidence that IL will meet the approval of the great body of voters who desire to see the affairs of Gila county honestly and ef- ficiently administered during the next succeeding two years. The democrat ic party may well point with pride to the list of its candidates. a majority of whom have been tried as county off cers, or in other positions of trust, and have proved their capacity and fitness, while those Of them who have never before appealed for the suf- frages of the people are known as citizens of sterling qualities and worthy of preferment. Indeed. 1t wouid appear difficult for political op- ronents to find sefious flaw in the ticket named by the county democra- cy. or 10 raise an issue that could in any manner detract from the worth of the men whom the democratfc party of cila county have chosen as their and we are confident that the voters of the county will, on No vember 3. register their complete ap- proval af the polls of the action of the convention. by electing the entire democratic ticket.-Globe Belt.

Gus Heyman, After His Trip Through the North, Says Cameron Is Doomed To a
 Very Bad Beating at Polls.

Gus Heyman-who is known by |every person in Arizona nearly. and
 liked by all-is in Tucson on a busi
 ness visit. Mir. Heyman is without
 doubt one of the best posted men in the territory politically. as his busi- ness brings him in contact with more
 voters than any other man in Arizona, Gus, when seen by a Star reporter yes terday, discussed politics freely, par ticularly the contest between Mark Smith and Ralph Cameron.
 Why, there's nothing in it." quoth Gus T have just returned from a business visit through northern Ari- zona, Maricopa and Pinal counties. and 1 think 1 can say without departing from the truth that Mark Smiths ma jority will be greater this year than ever. Northern Arizona will give Mark an unusually large vote. and when it comes to Maricopa and Pinal counties. why Cameron isn't in the fight I like Ralph Cameron, in fact am particularly friendly to him. but he is not congressional timber. If Ralph was running for some position he could fill, would vote for him as dS III ttiC but when it comes to sending aim to congress, regard it as joke think this year Arizona ought to be particu- larly careful about eiecting a delegate. It is nearing statehood, and an able man should be elected who can safe guard Arizona in the passage of an ef- abling cat, and as far as can see in my visits to every town in Arizona. d large majority Of the people are con sidering it from the same viewpoint No. no; there is nothing in the claim that Cameron will be elected; the fact of the matter is, he will be liter ally showed under"
 And Gus smiled as he thought Of the time the Republicans worked him up to wager $1 ,500 that Oakes Murphy would defeat Mark Smith. But Gus is a game man, and he took his loss like gentleman, and has never wa vered in his loyalty to Mark.-Tucson Star.

k|bBEY SPEAKS FUR CONVENTION
 AUGH'TQRIUM M
Necessity For Great Building In Phoenix If Commercial and Other Bodies Are To Meet There In the Future.

Phoenix can have the irrigation congress in 1911 if she wants 1t. but tc tske care of the delegates we must at once begin to make preparations for their comfort. We have no auditoriun large enough for the congress. nor nave We hotel accommodations for the uetegs1es. We must build an arnory, similar to that of Albuquerque; then We VIII De in position to take care of any convention that comes along"
 So says Governor Kibbey, who re- turned this morning from Albuquerque. where he attended the sixteenth pa- uonai irrigation congress. The gov ernor Is highly elated over the success of the congress, and believes that it VIII result in vast amount of good to the irrigationists of the southwest. Ii accomplished a great deal more tfan appears on the record. for numbers of conferences were constantly going on. These conferences were not really a part of the congress. but the congress made them possible.
 Yes, Phoenix can have the congress any time she wants it, said the gov ernor to the Gazette this morning.
 We selected 1911 ourselves. thinking that perhaps we will be able to take care of 1t by that time. But we must get busy. The citizens of Albuqueruue knew that the town needed an armory. They got together and built one that serves admirably for an auditorium. It is capable of seating $500 people, and during the congress- just closed 2.500 were inside on several occasions. Phoenix has no house capable of ac- commodating more than TOO or 800 people. The Doris opera house would hardly be large enough for a commit tee meeting. The irrigation congress is big institution
 Now, Phoenix must have an armory. The people need not put the nfatter of until next year, but get to work right now. This is the natural convention city of the territory. but it will not come into it's own until it has big auditorium. THNEN
 Nor is it too early to begin to plan for the accommodation of the dele gates in other ways. To entertain more than a thousand irrigationists is no light task Albuquerque did her self proud, but she spent many thou sands of dollars in entertaining She did not have as many delegates as Phoenix will have in 1911"

VENTURES WHICH HAVE COST THEGUGGENHEIMS
 MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
Information Coming to Light of Rash Invest
 ments by the Big Smelter Interests.

BOSTON. Oct. 9.-Some unfortunate investments of the Guggenheim inter ests in the mining line are just comins 10 light and explain in measure way there has been such a housekeeping In the field forces, for the purchase oi these properties was largely upon the recommendation of the highest paid mining engineering talent fin the country.
 The Guggenheim Exploration com. pany, which Is the principal mine owner of the Guggenheim outfit, has expended a total of s27, ,000, ,o00 in ac. curing properties within a compara- lively few years
 One of the leading mining assets of the company was the property at Val erdena, Mexico This was a silver lead group, and was operated privately for years by Barton Seawall and asso- ciateS. known as the old American Smelling and Refining crowd The property produced between $S.0 ,0O0 and Sl0,000,000 from the old silver lead ground from carbonate ores. Then no zinc had appeared in the ores and the smelting costs were exceed fngiy low, and it was possible at that time to derive excessively large profits in treatment of custom ores. The Seawall interests sold the properties to the Guggenheims for $6,000, 900, and they expended $1 ,00O. 600 in a new fur mace plant and s400,000 on a new power plant. At the same time they purchased copper property, sixteen miles distant, and built a railroad to connect it with the Valerdena plant, so that the total investment at this point amounted to not far from S1O,- 100000.
 Soon after the Guggenheim control, however, arsenic came in the ores, and operating conditions changed so that it is now said there has not been a dollar of profit derived to date on this invest ment. At the copper mine they went down 600 feet and found that the ore is practically exhausted, running at the lower levels but 3-4 per cent copper.
 Here is a $1O,oO0,0O investment which could probably not be re-sold for over one-tenth of the cost. Valer- dena is now fighting word in the Guggenheim offices.
 A second pronounced Guggenheim failure was a silver-lead property near Silyerton, Colorado, for which s2.500..

900 was paid for the mine aud an ad ditional S750,000 expended in a new
 mill and equipment, only to discover
 when the mill was ready to operate
 that the mine was practically out oi ore
 The Guggenheins likewise have a S7,000,000 investment in the Yukon. but the public was given an oppor- tunity to aelp shoulder this burden. The selling of the shares was given to Lawson, who was given an option upon T00.000 shares at 8 per share. The Yukon fiotation-some people call it by harsher name-resulted in 40O,- 900 shares of the company being dis tributed to the public at fom SC to SS share. The distributor got his stock for $5 a share net, but as he had previous to the public offering dis tributed 100000 shares among a fa- vored few at $5.50. he was obliged to take this sotck back in the open mar ket at from SC to sS. SO that the ner Lawson profit was 5-S of a point on the 100000 shares, or s270,000.
 The Guggenheims paid the adyertis- ing bills of about SS0,0 0,006, and received an acknowledgements in the shape of an immense bunch of Lawson pinks sent to the Mauretania waen Daniel Guggenheim sailed for Europe, shortly after the Yukon fiotation
 Another chapter could be written of the Guggenheim investment for the American Smelling Securities com pany of between $S,000, 900 and s1o,. 100000 in the three smelting plants on the Pacific coast. These included the Tacoma plant, for which s4.000. 900 was paid, or many times the price at which the same plant had been offered 10 other interests six months previous to the time the Guggenneims pur- chased it
 The Selby plant on San Francisco bay cost almost as mucn as the Taco ma plant. It is not now productive of earnings. because it is shut down tight, the agricultural interests having se- cured a permanent injunction against it's operation because of the smeIter fumes.
 A third was the San Bruno plant. which was to have been built on San Francisco bay at cost of $7.000. .000 but was abandoned after an expendi- tGre of S1,500,0O0, because of court in functions from the agricultural inter ests.

anee. Arizona's delegation was mex
 to the largest there in proportion tt
 population. New Mexico. of course had the biggest delegation.
 What speech made the greatest i'm pression upon you, governor"
 Well, that is hard to say. A great many things might influence my an, swer to that question. All of the speeches interested me to some extent and every speaker had some informa tion tq impart some worthy views to be placed before the congress.
 You understand that the work of sucd congress as that was is not dis closed by it's record. There were hun dreds of conferences of which no record has been kept. They were going forward constantly, and will probably exert greater influence all along the. line than the congress itself The congress is much more important than it would otherwise be because it makes these conferences possible.
 "The Arizona agricultural exhibit was very creditable, but it lost a great deal in effect because it was put away in dark corner. She was given a very poor position, and not nearly enough space to display her exhibit It did not make nearly so good an i'm pression as it would had it been spread out over more space in a well lighted part of the building. Then it was not placarded like Uta11's. Utah had each product by itself, many in a separate showcase. There was but one big placard in the Arizona booth, and that merely said, Arizona Dates You obtained very inadequate idea of the variety of her products by going there and looking around. It was too dark; everything was jammed up too close together, and not marked. Los Angeles had an ostrich exhibit, while we have ten times as many of the big birds as are in California. We had no ostrich exhibit except some eggs, and it was hard to see them believe that next year 1t would pay this territory to have a special booth or pavilion constructed, that we may be certain of plenty of space.
 "Yes, I am certain that Arizona had a bigger display and wider range of products than any other state or terri tory, except New Mexico. She had a big display of apples, but of course that merely consisted of lots of fruit Phoenix Gazette.
