Whom to Trust.
prise.

Whom to trust and when to trust him constitutes a science which only lifetime of perseverance, coupled with divine faculty for judging human nature, can master. If you are prepared to trust anybody trust the plain old boy who makes no pre- tentions: who. when he says. "Pll pay you that ten Saturday night" pays it Saturday night or shows you why he can't. Trust the man who would rather have the good opinion of his neighbors than g red automobile. pro- vided that he can't have both. Trust the man who is true to his own flesh and blood, for he cannot afford to dis grace them by being dIshonorable. Trust in your home town, stand by it's merchants, it's people, it's mines, it's newspapers and you will win out all down the line.-Exchxn

DEMOCRATS WILL RIDE IN STYLE.
Southern Delegates Going to Next Con-
 ventIon or Special Train.

On Q special train carrying a brass band and decorated with flags and banners, the delegates to the next ter. ritorial convention from the counties of Gila, Graham. Cochise. Pima, Pinal. and Santa Cruz will journey to Pres colt, if the program outlined in Tue son by Charles A. Hoff is carried out.
 Hoff was a caller at the office of M. O. BickneiI, district passenger agent in Tucson and left some estimates for rates to be made for special train. It is Hoff' s idea to have the special train made up at Bowie station and meet the delegates at that point from Graham and Gila counties.
 At Benson the Oochise county dele gation. forty seven strong, would be added to the number and at Tucson, Pima and Santa Cruz would board the special delegates train. At Casa Grande it is the intention to invite the Pinal delegation to join the train and at Maricopa to add the delegation from Yuma.
 It is generally understood that the territorial executive committee which will meet within few days will fix the place for the meeting of the con- vention at Prescott.
 There IS a strong sentiment among some of the democrats of the territory favoring an early convention and pro- bably the first week in August will see the democratic convention in ses- sion again for the purpose of nomIn- ating delegate to congress.
 A special train bearing the delegates from the southern counties to Pres colt would be the opening of the de- mocratic campaign and would no doubt create great deal of enthusiasm along the route.-Democratic.

Heap BIG Wrestler.

John Middlesky. the giant Oocopah belonging to Yuma and to the colony, has challenged Leopold McLagIen for wrestling bout at Los Angeles. Nc. Laglen is an Irish champion, and claims the worlds championship. When he meets Middlesky he will not have . dainty Japanese jiu-jItsu artist to caress. but instead his savage ta!ons will tear at c mountain of solid fresh, animated by from nerves. At Lowell. in 1906. Middesky played with sid Varney. the great Australian cham pion, as if he had been baby. His manager, Mir. Taylor. had side set with Varney's friends of $1.O0O. and the gate money amounted to Sl 300. Middlesky. however. has never made any formidable showing when wrest- ling in Yuma. His preponderance of avordnpois will be somewhat counter acted in the height of McLaglen, who IS six feet and seven inches tall, and weighs 2l5 pounds. Middlesky still has at least 150 pounds the best of his agile adversary in the matter of weight. McLaRlen viciously punished Fuka- muachi at Los Angeles, last Sunday afternoon. He has muscles of steel and is quick. Middlesky is never afraid of anything and has several times challenged Jim Jeffries to box, polite advances which MT. Jeffries has all ways consistently iguored.-Yuma Ex. aminer.

Report Finding of "Lost Tayopa."

It was confidently expected that the particulars of the reported finding of the famous Lost Tayopa" mine of fabulous wealth could be given in this issue of The Enterprise, but it can not for lack of those particulars and to give what is known would be violation of confidence. Three parti- culars can be given and they are: the discovery at present believed to be "Lost Tayopa" is on the federal min eral concession of Colonel W. O. Greene and that it was not found in the Guaynopa district; also it is Chi huahua business man whose prospect ors have made the reputed discovery and he is awaiting the return of Ool.

 That the command, ''rhou shalt not bear false witness against thy neichbor." is of effect in Arizona was demonstrated last week when Sheriff J. R. Lowry and B. F. Vim brought O. w. North to Yuma to serve @ sentence of three months for heaping calumny upon the head of T. J. Nolan, one of the best and most highly re- spected citizens of Yavapai county.

IeIe lOudN, lIIt NiCJOl' ' OuuS man of that tribe about 22 or 23 wears old, being winner after hay ing made the great run of about 135 miles in 30 hours and 24 minutes. Four contestants entered but two fell out early in the game and the third played out on the last lay in the course.
 The two chief contestants were man from Bocoyna and the other from Sisoguichic The latter won and fame and wealth are his, accord ing to Tarahumare standards, and he and his tribesmen of Sisoguichic have all the possessions of Bocoyna while the TarahumareS are in com plete poverty. On these races, which occur two or three times a year, these Indians bet everything from a cotton handkerchief up to their ponies and cattle, even to their wives.
 The race started yesterday at 9:21 a. m. and was run over course along the wagon road for about three kilometres eastward from this place to three kilometers beyond Sanchez station on the Orient railroad By the railroad the distance would be Is kilometers or ten miles, but by the wagon road it is probably six kilOmeters less. The race was ten laps over this course or about 125 miles with a spurt across country through the hills in addition, bringing 1t up probably ten miles farther The winner finished today in good form at 3:45 p. m., remarkable feat of endurance, having been running for 30 hours and A minutes con secutively and kicking, or rather throwing with his foot, a wooden sphere about the size of a baseball, over the entire course.
 For these contests the Indians gather bringing all their families and possessions. They agree upon the course and bets. The Indians are perfectly honest with each other but the comisario who is the petty Mexican official here, draws up a written contract covering these terms for the benefit only of Mexi cans who may bet. This Is not necessary for the former but 1t is for the latter who make trouble. The bets made by the Indians are curiosity. They consisted of all sorts of articles of personal proper ty and on this race the comisario had pile of blankets, axes, cloth ing, etc, nearly as high as a mans head, stacked up in his office. Besides there was about $500 money up. The comisario was the stakeholder.
 When the start was made every contestant had his enthusiastic partisans. With each was crowd of men, boys, women and girls running during the entire time of the race. As some would drop out others would replace them. The starting point was Greet whence they ran eastward to the end of the course, whence along a prescribed route they cut across the hills to the west end of the course on the wagon road which thereafter they kept back and forth. When night came on the enthusiastic attendants of each ran with pitch-pine torches to light the way and so as to be able to see the ball. It was truly
