BALTIMORE. Dec. S.-GOvernors of many western states arrived here on 2 special train today. Tonight they were rendered a banquet at the chamber of commerce. President Daniel Will lard of the Baltimore and Ohio. made the principal address and said there is possibly in the next period of so great industrial activity We may find the railroads utterly unable to carry the greatly augmented burden imposed upon them Capital requirements for the next five years he said will be five hundred million, and there are some who say it will be a billion. Where will we get this enormous sum for better ments. extensions, and other improve ments demanded by increased traffic D There is little. if any hope. under eX isting conditions. for rewards on rail road investments. People are begin ming to realize a more liberal policy is necessary toward the railroads in order to insure stability of invest ments and extension of facilities for the great requirements which are sure ly coming.

 The battleship Maine was blown up from the outside in Havana harbor." This is the government statement is sued by the state department today. It is based on the finding made by the joint army and navy board, which spent several months in Ha- Vana Investigating the wreck. The statement follows:
 The board found that injuries to the bottom of the Maine was caused by the explosion of a charge of low form of explosives in the exterior to the ship between frames 2S and 31. strake B, port side. This resulted in igniting and exploding the contents of the siX-inch reservoir magazine. All NJ. said contents including a large quantity of black powder.

County Candidates Address Enthusiastic Crowds of Voters at Osborn and Meridian Districts Last Night.
MONDAY NIGHT
 WILL END WORK
On That Evening a Final Rally Will Be Held in Third Avenue Theater- Meeting Also Scheduled for Tonight.

Two good meetings were held by the republican county candidates last night at Osborn and at Meridian. ! There were sixty voters in the hall when the meeting was called to or der at Osborn, and nearly as many attended the rally held at Meridian. The speeches were well received in both places and the candidates are confident that they will carry both places by good majorities on election day
 Tonight the county candidates will hold a. meeting for the Spanish American voters of Phoenix in the Third Avenue theater, and a number of good Spanish speakers have been engaged for the occasion.
 The closing rally of the Maricopa county campaign will be held in the Third Avenue theater Monday night, and then the settlement of the ques- tions which have agitated the public mind for months past will be left with the voters.
 T can see nothing but republican victory in Maricopa county" said Secretary Stoddard of the county central committee last night, 'and by that I do not mean a simple cutting down of the claims of the democrats, but the election of our entire ticket by safe majorities. l will not con- cede a majority for even Carl Hay den in Maricopa county. Up to ten days ago it looked as though he might pull through on the strength of being native son, but since that time there has been a steady trend toward the straight republican ticket even on the part of those who at first were inclined to give Hayden a complimentary vote Jack Williams, by his oratory and by his straight forward manly way of presenting the issues of the campaign, has made a host of friends who believe he is the man to represent the state in con- gross.
 The democrats have frightened the farmers and fruit growers of the val ley by their talk of free trade. and while Hayden has carefully avoided making any free trade speeches in Maricopa county, the voters know that if he is elected to congress he will line up with his party on all party issues and have concluded to elect Hayden to stay at home.
 50 far as the county ticket is con- cerned, there never has been any doubt. Our men have overmatched their opponents at every stage of the game and they will win hands down"

THIS SEEMS RATHER
 4 CHEAP BUSINESS
It Is Strange That Even the Gazette Would Stoop to Such Cheap
 Trickery.

The Gazette. last night. featured in bold faced type. on it's first page, top Of column and next almost pure read ing matter. about as base campaign lie as has been circulated during the rather heated political controversy just about to close. The basest feature oC it. if one of it's features could be baser than another. was that the Ga zette tried to saddle the calumny upon union labor by trying to show that it was based upon charges made by the Plasterers Union No 394.
 In brief the charge was. or is. that the board of control which is made uI of Governor Sloan. Territorial Auditor Mauk and Citizen Member Robert Craig had awarded the con- tract for rebuilding the territorial in- sane asylum to George IT. Gallagher for a sum approXimating S60.O0O with cut having advertised for bids as re- quired bv law. coupled with the fur ther charge that the contract was nJt awarded to the lowest bidder.
 The charge is so utterly without foundation in every particular that its circulation can only be regarded as a cheap political trick on the part of the democratic campaign committee calculated to injure George A. Mauk. who is a candidate upon the republi- can ticket for state auditor.
 Not only were bids advertised for 36 days as required by law. but they " ere advertised in the Gazette. the very paper which charges that bids were not advertised for. and that fact vas known to the responsible editor of that paper when the lying charge was prepared for publication. Bids were also advertised for in the col umns of The Republican, as the law requires that bids for public work shall be advertised in two papers of opposite political faith.
 In connection with the charges out lined above the Gazette in the article referred to said that a mass meeting had been called for Sunday morning. at which the charges would be dis Cussed and action taken to call t1 account the public officials involved for having been recreant t0 their trusts. No member of Plasterers Urion No 39l could be found last night in order to acQuaint him and through him the union with the facts in the case and to learn what view of the matter the union might take under the circumstances.
