AN ARIZONA BOOSTER
 THOUGH CALIFORNIA
In the Course of ReviSiting the Territory Geo, E, Buxton
 Is at Douglas


 Still boosting for Arizona, Co- ohise county and Bisbse. but doing this in connection with the boosts which he Is giving san Diego, Geo. E. Buxton, former president of the Bisbee board Of trade and known throughout Arizona, especially well in the southeTn counties, has been in Douglas. Mr. Buxton left BisDee more'a than year ago and has since been at san Diego, where he has become one of the most sue cssful business men, as he was in Arizona whiie Q resident of the state that is now aborning.
 Yes, I stin find time to say Q good word for Arizona aud for Bis bee whenever an opportunity arises" said MT Buxton this morning. Even if I am nov ,a Southern Californian l have not forgotten former allegiance and shall not do so. shall always be glad to ao all that l can for Ari zona.7
 Reyertiug 10 Sap Diego, Mir. Bux- ton spoke proudly of the city and its present rapid development. The progress of the Spreckels railroad I line was commented upon and what it would mean to San Diego with it's grand, natural harhor and ship ping facilities when the road is com Ipleted and the Panama canal open ed. Climate was touched upon, but more attention was paid to the great irrigation projects now in con temptation or in course of actual progress. The extent of acreage that Is to be brought under cultiva- ton by these projects is so great as to fairly paralyze thought. for it is more than all of the rest of the cultivated lands in Southern Call fornia.

the republican editors want some other man than Governor Harmon nominated for president
 Governor Harmon is Iovable character personally, and the most dyed-in-the-wool republican cannot help but like him He is very dem. ocratic in his manner of living and the common people are made to feel perfectly at home in his presence. ffhis is one Of the strongest marks of his individuality, and explains why he draws men so closely to himself It is too bad he is a democrat. and fl is to be hoped that ther6 is stiH balm enough in Gilead To crssrse nin CT political 1nrlght. .cousness.
 should Taft and Harmon be the opposing candidates next year, ohio will surely be on the map, and no matter who would be elected, the state would maintain the proud dis, tinction of heinz the Mother of Presidents. While the state has al ways been true to her republican traditions in presidential years, the great strength of Governor Harmon would render it necessary that the republicans be up and doing every day from the beginning to the end of the campaign. Ohio republican leaders realize this fact, and they much prefer that some democrat other than Governor Harmon shall secure the nomination"

PETITION CIRCULATED
 FOR LATERAL HIGHWAY
It Is Proposed to Join the Ter ritoriaI Road East of
 Lowell

A petition is being circulated and signed by numerous citizens, asking the board of supervisors to construct lateral road running from Warren to the territorial highway. which passes north of that town about a mile distant. It is proposed to con struct lateral running over the crest of the hill back of the Douglas resi- dence, joining the highway out east of Lowell. It Is understood that the Warren company has agreed to do the surveying and preliminary work.
 IL Is probable that the county will be asked to build a number of lateral highways to connect with the high way certain towns and localities that will not be on the highway proper. In this way the whole county will be, in directly. on the territorial highway and the maximum of benefit from the road will be realized.

MOTHERS FAITH
 IN FIRING SONS
Mrs. Cochran Writes Asserting Her Belief in Her Sons
 lnnoceHce.

The Review has received a long and pitiful letter from Mrs. J. Ii. Cochran. Of Hot Springs, Ark, the mother of two men-they are boys to her--who have been somewhat in the public eye of this county; like wise in jail.
 One of them is William Cochran and the other is Temperance, though it is stated that that name was not well lived up to- But that is neither here nor there.
 Temperance Cochran is at large, a fugitive from justice, an eyader of a $2e0 me for a misdemeanor, an abus- CT Of the confidence of the boss of a road gang. Meanwhile, William had been held to the grand jury, charged with passing a saw to his brother while in jail.
 The mother had just heard of these things, and she writes that she is al- most broken hearted, this aIliction having been laid upon many earlier ones. She is somewhat buoYed up, though, by the belief that they are innocent of the charges against them She quotes from a letter from the imprisoned one: Mama, ! am sent here to await the grand jury in No vember of October for passing 2 saw to Temperance-and Mama, I am not guilty"
 The mothers letter-'.Now as you all think Temperance escaped out of jail at Lowell (if he did or did not do not know), but it seems as if he did by finding a saw Now. he wants you all to find out who passed the saw at Tombstone, meaning that he escaped without a saw. l am think ing that you are accusing my boy wrongfully.'
 In conclusion Mrs. Cochran writes: But there will come a time some day when we will all be judged by Q great and grander Ruler than you will find in the wicked world. 1 am B years old, and l have had the. blues for TWO weeks. am almost crazy. My head aches, as well as my heart, all the time

STOLE BANKS MONEY
CASHIER KILLS SELF AND AS
SISTANT IN JAIL.

Two Men Bring Disgrace Upon Them
selves and Families by Using
Banks Funds.
Luther v. Hart, cashier of the
Bank of Tarboro, N. c., is dead, and
E. H.. Hussey, assistant cashier, is in
jail charged with completely in the
misapplication of $50 400 in bank
funds as "a result of visit to the
bank Wednesday morning by ]. K.
Doughton, state bank examiner.
Hart died from a self-inflicted pIs
tol wound, ard the exposure of Hus-
sey followed when bank officials and
Mr.. Doughton made "a hasty investi-
cation Of the bank books.
Wednesday morning Mr.. Doughton
called at the bank for the purpose
Of making his regular inspection y,
the affairs of the institution. The
examination was deferred until noon,
Ind Hart remained at his post until
the regular dinner hour.
Going home for dinner, he went
directly to his room, and a few min
utes later his wife was startled to
hear a pistol shot. Rushing to the
room, she found Hart laying across
the bed with a bullet hole through his
head. He died two hours later with
out having regained consciousness.
The misapplication, it is believed
will not exceed $4,000. Hart had
recently been involved in numerous
business transactions, and 1t is be-
lieved series Of failures was re-
sponsible for his act.
Following the exposure the afra1rs
Of the bank were placed In charge
of state officials, and they 1mme'
diately closed its doors pending fur
ther investigation. The institution
is capitalized at 100000. Its depos-
It's aggregate more than 100000.
Hart was about 35 years old, and
was O. member Of one of the most
prominent families in eastern North
