IA MINING DEAL
 FOR FLUKIAG ORES
It Is Reported That Cananea Interests Are After the
 Mansfield Property,
Especial to he Review ]

MORALES, Ariz., July 4.-Should current reports be substantiated, the Consolidated Cananea interests are likely to come into possession of one of the richest copper properties ever developed in the southwest. The evil dences all point to the conclusion that Arizona is now ready to forge to the front as a copper producer and estab- fish new records that will leave past production figures in the shade.
 In the meanwhile the demand of the large smelters for fuXing ores has become increasingly urgent; and the ores of this character that are be ing taken from the Mansfield copper property a snort distance to the north Of Cananea are stated by engineers to be admirably adapted for the pur poses of the refiners.
 Mansfield stockholders are taking a keen interest in the proposed deal. but will likely be well satisfied to hold the property in their own hands at least for several years to come. The property is now splendidly equip ped and is said to be practically ready for the period of continuous and heavy production.

work will be started in accordance with carefully prepared program. based on past experience.
 The motor car will be used only over ground which the explorers have first traversed. It will be utilized to haul provisions only IL will go only 25 miles day, or whereabouts, and will stop when the ponies stop. ShackIeton holds to the opinion that it is an eminentIy practical idea. Naturally interest in America cen ters in the Peary expedition, the plans for the trip being already completed and the explorer is only waiting for the completion of the necessary funds to finance the expedition. in the main Peary expects to follow the same pro- cedure as before as to time of start across the pack. sledging, etc. but will somewhat change his route. Peary says:
 T propose in my next expedition to follow the same program and route as in the last with such notifications as have been suggested by the expert encc and discoveries of the last expe- GitiOn.
 "I shall use the same ship. the Roosevelt; shall leave New York July 1; shali follow the same route north, via Sydney, C. B.. Straits of Belle Isle, Davis Straits. Baffin Bay. and Smith Sound: shall use the same methods, equipments and supplies; shall have a minimum party of white men, supple mented with Eskimos and dogs in the Whale Sound region as before, and shall endeayOT to force my ship to the same or similar winter quarters on the north side Of Grant Land as in the winter of 1905-6.
 'WinteTing here will be essentially the same as in 1905-6, though l expect next time to avoid the distribution of my dogs and a large portion of my party through the interior of Grant Land during the winter, enforced in the last expedition by the poisoning of the whale meat which I had pur- chased for food for my dogs.
 The sledge work will begin as be- fore, in February. but my route will be modified as follows: First, I shall follow the north coast of Grant Land as far vast as Cape Columbia, and possibly beyond; instead of leaving the land at Point Moss, as I did be- fore
 Second, leaving the land, my course will be more west of north than be- fore, in order to counteract or allow for the easterly set of the ice be- tween the north coast of Grant Land and the pole, discovered during my last expedition.
 Another essential modification will be a more rigid massing of my sledge divisions en route, in order to pre- vent the possibility of a portion of the party being separated from the rest by the movement of the ice, with in sufficient supplies for protracted ad- vance, as happened on the last exps- dition.
 The main features of the above program are, first, the utilization of the Smith Sound or American route.
 Second, the selection of a winter base which commands wider range of the central polar sea and it's surround ing coasts than any other possible base in the Arctic regions.
 Third, the use of sledges and Es- kimo dogs. Man and the Eskimo dog are the only two machines capable of such adjustment as to meet the wide demands and contingencies of Arctic travel Airships, motor cars. trained polar bears, etc. are all premature, except as means of attracting public attention

Says the East Is Against Taft As a Radical, While the West Estimate Him
 As a Radical.
HE HOPES TO DRAW
 FROM BOTH SECTIONS
Wants a Short, Concise, Clear and Ringing Platform Not
 Too Much in Detail.

LINCOLN, Neb.. July 4-Assured of the nomination ct Denver practically without opposition, Mir. Bryan believes he can beat Mir. Taft at the polls. Frankly and yet modestly, speaking mere for his party and his cause than for himself as a man, he tells his friends the basis of the faith that is in him.
 The Republican party is balanced on the top of the Allegheny Mountains, Mir. Bryan told a caller today. East of that dividing line, he said, the peo- pie are opposed to the policies of President Roosevelt and fear the presidents successor is too much com mitted to the Roosevelt ideas. West of that line the people look upon MT. Taft as a conservative, almost as a reactionary, and from his administra- tion, if he should be elected, they do not look for a continuation of the work Roosevelt began.
 As for the Democratic plan of cam- paign, MT Bryan said that was very plain and simple. All the best part of the Roosevelt policies is Demo cratic doctrine borrowed by the pres idsnt. He took Democratic ideas, but has not worked them out. All the Democrats have got to do is 10 go straight along the way they have been going. stand for the things they have always stood for, and they have the enemy on the defensive. East of the Alleghenies the people will, by contrast, look upon Democratic prin- ciples as conservative, and west of the Alleghenies they will look to the Democracy as the only party pledged and able to carry out progressive work.
 Asked from which section, east or west of the Alleghenies, he expectd to make the greatest gains, MT. Bryan said he expected great gains from both sections
Bisbee daily review., 1908-07-05

l MT. Bryan, consents to no interviews
 for publication. This is not an inter-
 i view. The expression quoted above is Is. remark he makes to many of his
 visitors. It reveals the logic, the 1 basic principles, upon which MT. 1 Bryan is preparing for his third great
 battle. It is obvious he is sincere in 1 his belief that he has this time a big | chance to win. He believes the Re | publican party is hopelessly divided over what is generally known as | IRCOseYeltism. He hopes and believes I his party, under his leadership, will | be able to steer a middle course and 1 gather advantage from Republican discontent on both sides of the line. ! This explains the now generally rec ognized fact that MT. Bryan is anxious mot to be looked upon as too radical, ! He is eager to avoid being regarded as a leader of innovations, as one who would bring forward new and strange | policies, as an upsetter of the stability 1 of things. In his third battle Mir. Bryan is not to be a crusader. No government Dwner5hip' of SracrOads ! this year. At the same time, he must be progressive, not only for the sake of consistency but to play the western end of the game according to ] his concept of the opportunity the Republicans have given him.
 No one will charge that Mir. Bryan | is not a man of sincerity and courage | in advocacy of the things he believes in. And yet lie is a practical poli- tician. H wants to win. He wants to take advantage Of every opening. to strengthen his position in every way possible, And he IS clever. Just
 now he is engaged, night and day, in preparing the important blanks of his platform to fit his idea of the middle course. He wants a short, concise. clear, ringing platfOrm-one which does not go too much into details, which leaves much unsaid, which can be quickly read and amply explained and enlarged upon during the cam paign. And as the campaign comes on it will be found that Mir. Bryan is q general not to be despised. He is alert to all the weak points of the enemy and is making ready to assail them.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-07-05

those who opposed Roosevelt, and that if the people of the west really want a progressive administration during the next four years they will have to take Mir Bryan.
 In the west the Democratic leader will point to the nomination of Sher- man at Chicago as proof that the re- aetionaries were in control there. He will remind progressive Republicans everywhere that the blanks which they favor as a part of the new idea in our public life were not only turned down by overwhelming vote when brought forward at Chicago by the Wisconsin delegation. but denounced as Demo cratic and Soeialistie" by Chairman Hopkins of the committee on resoluS ticns. He will try to convince west .crn Republicans that on the tariff tae revision promised by the Repub- Jeans means a revision upward. while the Democracy stands pledged to give revision downward. not for the ben eft of the manufacturer, but for the good of the consumer.
 In the east Mir. Bryan will maintain that Democratic policies are really conservative. At the very least he will maintain that whatever they are they are to be carried out without any favoritism, but there will be no juggling with New Haven and Hart ford or other interests which nave friends at court
 It is a curious fact that Mir Bryan really believes ha can make gains in the east on the far side of the Ale ghenies by avoiding too much radical ism in the platform and by taking ad- vantsge of reaction from Roosevelt ism.
 Another curious fact in this ccnnec- tion is Mr. Bryan's belief, and the be- lief of his friends, that one great aid ito the Democratic cause this year will be the knowledge Of business men and railway managers and mGnufac- turers that if Bryan should be elected they are safer from interfereneeand annoyance than they would be if Taft were elected. With Taft iu the White House the Republicans would have to revise the tariff, and they would have to put up a 0luf, at least. to- ward railway and antitrust legisla- tion. But with Bryan in the White House and the senate largely Repub- lican and it will surely be nothing at all could be done for four years. There would be an absolute blockade of legislation. Business would get a rest.

Bisbee daily review., 1908-07-05

For example. as the discussion of the summer advances we shall find MT. Bryan on the stump. He will not admit that he intends touring the country. He talks sometimes of sit ting down on the veranda of his beautiful farmhouse near this town and. waiting for the delegations to come to him. But his friends know him better than he knows himself. They know that he can't sit still. Not enough people will pay railway fares and come to him. He will go to them. He will abandon the dignified veranda for the tail end of railway train. Almost every state in the north will hear his voice. Mir. Bryan knows he and his voice and his per suasive manner and his personal chSCm and cOnvincingness are the greatest assets his party has in this battle, and he will not hesitate to make the most of them.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-07-05

It is already clear enough the gen eral line his attack Is to take. He will tell the people of the west Taft is naturally the friend of the inter ests;" that under the Taft administra- tion, if there should be one. the Roose- welt work would be gradually drop ped; that the convention which nom mated Taft was a conservative con vention and that the anti-Roosevelt wing of the Republican party is now in control; that as Roosevelt steps out and gradually disappears from, view Taft. as his successor, will fall ] more and more under the influence of

In fact thr total sum paid out In

adoption OF first pensions act after the
revolution. including what has been
paid to widows, minor children and
dependents Of veterans reaches the
enormous amount of about $3,S0O, OOO.-

recitation of the dictum that "repub-
lies are migrate fui,@@ though there are
some so-callcd republics OF which IL
can be safely asserted today just as 1t
was OF some in days Of yore when the
saving originated.
The pension appropriation agreed
upon at the recent session OF Con-
gress for the fiscal year OF 1908
amounted in round figures to $163,ooO
600, which is an increase of nearly
$25. g09, 900 over the appropriation OF
1907. and naturally suggests consid-
cradle Increase in the number of pen
sicners whose claims have been al
lowed and whose names have been
placed on tn pension list. In 1907 the
pensioners numbered 947.371. of whom
more than 100000 were widows and
dependents Of veterans. In 1902 the
list Numbered 9a9,i4O. but the pay
men.s in that year amounted &c. .hst

years before. the .I.affber was only

To the uninitiated the fact seems
strange that instead OF our pension
diminishing with time

,ated individuals do not understand
hat our pension list also serves as

means more votes for the Grand Old
