Enforcing Neutrality.

Minister Limantours's reflection upon the United States for alleg- ed laxity in enforcing the neu- trality laws is ungenerous and uncalled for. The United States is spending S1 ,OOO,O0O to patrol every mile of the border with a cordon of POGO troops-what is Mexico doing to enforce the neutrality laws? Not a single thing. It is said that money tallzS-then this S1 ,OOO, GOO ought to speak elOquently of our national friendship and good faith.
 It happened that the very day Minister Limantour's remarkable interview appearead, Gen. Dun can commanding the military department of Texas declared in an interview that in full tour of inspection he had been unable to see that Mexico was doing much to protect her own border. Not only are troops conspicuous ly absent at many points, but even the usual forces of customs guards are not on duty"
 Minister Limantour evidently wants the United States to re- move insurrecto Sympathizers "2CO kilOmeters from the iron tier" Q25 miles) and to enlarge the interpretation" of neutrality. One might suggest that if Mexi- co on her side would remove ali insurrectO sympathizers POO kilometers from the frontier" El PasO's business, her industries, and her tranquility would not be so seriously interfered with as they are now.
 The United States is enforcing the neutrality laws in all good faith, and Mexico should be deeply grateful, not harshly critical. We are demonstrating our friendliness in the most tangible way-the pocketbOok way.-Herald.

Vulture Mine Big Producer.

That the Vulture mine is de- stined to eclipse it's former record of gold production in the latter '6Os and early '7Os, when it's startling richness attracted the attention of the entire civilized world to the wonderful mineral possibilities of Arizona, is the opinion of A. H. Dittmar, engi- neer, who returned yesterday from filling an extended engage ment at the property MT. Ditt- mar says that the new twenty stamps are dropping day and night and crushing one hundred tons every twenty four hours. The treatment includes the cya- hide process, which is giving satisfactory results in the recov- cry of the values. The stamps are unusually heavy, weighing 1 $50 pounds, each dropping 98 times a minute It is doubtful if the crushing capacity of the mill is equalled by any of simi- lar size in the entire t.-Jour- nal Miner.

Roosevelt and Arizona Statehood.

In his Washington Birthday speech at Chicago, Col. Roosevelt turned to the question of state hood for Arizona and made the following pertinent remarks:
 l saw it stated in the press the other day that certain good people in Washington were against the admission of Arizona as a state because it has adopted in it's constitution the recall. In 1870 the state of Massachusetts put into it's constitution precisely that provision for recall.
 Now, understand me, I am not arguing for or against the recall. l am merely saying that If the people of Arizona or any other community wish to try it, or if they do not wish the trial, it is their affair.""
 This would not indicate that either the President nor congress would turn our constitution down or reject our demand for state- hood

Democratic Outlook.

The new electoral college o1 1912 containing ,3312 votes, will require 2663Votes to elect. Al though Mir. Bryan in three campaigns and Mr. Parker in 1908 were unable to win for the Democratic party, it is by no means a hopeless task that con fronts the Democrats next year MT. Cleveland in 1881 won by carrying the solid south, and four northern states, New York New Jersey, Indiana and Con- necticut. Mir Tilden had previ- ously donesthe same thing, al though deprived of his victory in Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana. The Democrats can win in 1912 by carrying the solid south and those four states.
 The solid south, counting Della ware and West Virginia as part of it, and including the new state of Oklahoma, IF states in all, totals 186 votes. New York with 45, New Jersey with II, Indiana with 13 and Connecticut with give S1 more, or a total of 267. This is one more than a majority, and there is still left Colorado, Nebraska and Nevada, with total of Is votes, all of which states Bryan carried in 1908, and Arizona and New Mex icO with three each, both of which may be Democratic.
 New York, New Jersey, Con- necticut and Indiana have Demo cratic governors and were carried twice by Cleveland and once by Tilden. Cannot history reSpeat itself? Either Harmon or Wilson would seem especially strong men in such a campaign-Harm- on because of his utilization with Cleveland and Wilson because of his proximity to three of the northern states in question: Herald.

Gold Road Bullion.

Yesterday afternoon J. F. Mo- Cornell brought in the regular weekly shipment of bullion from the Gold Road mill, the bar weighing S26,OOO.. The bullion shipment last week weighed within a few dollars of $50, ,OOO, being the largest bar ever taken out by the mill in one week, and making the production for four teen days of this month about S3, 500 daily. The capacity of the mill is not taxed and it is thought that the production of bullion will increase every month from this time on until the full capacity is reached. The mine is said to have broken ore in the Stopes sufficient to keep the mill running more than nine months if every miner was taken out and no further mining was done. The company is increasing it's ore reserves thousands of tons monthly and will be in position to supply thousand tons of ore daily at all times, if the need comes. S.-Miner

Biggest Shipment of Bullion Ever Made

The largest shipment of bullion ever made from GOldfield has been sent out by the Goldfield Consolidated to the Selby Smelt- ing Works at San Francisco, the consignment having been valued at $i26, GOO and conveyed by an express company under double guard There were 19 bars in the shipment, having q total weight of B, ,O6O ounces avOirdu- pOis, or about 14SO pounds. The bullion was 900 fine and about SIS an ounce.
 A singular coincidence exists in connection with this record breaking shipment of bullion by the fact that it was made on the fourth anniversary of the settle ment for the richest car of gold ore ever produced in the history of mining that being q carload of 4S tons from the Hayes-Mo- nette lease on the Mohawk, for which the Selby company drew a check for S374, ,938 3S, or S12,- 241. .23 per ton.-Exchange.

Wn. Gibson Sells Out Cattle Business.

Yesterday a check for S2O. .99O arrived for Wm. Gibson, of this place, as payment in full of bal ance purchase price on which S1O. .OOO was paid last Friday, by the Boquillas Land and Cattle Co.,, for his cattle and home ranch of 600 acres bottom land two miles north of Benson.
 Mr. Gibson will move into Ben son and occupy either the Pid- geOn cottage, COT. Huachuca and Seventh streets, or the Gregg cottage, corner. San Pedro and Seventh, most likely the latter, as he reserved his horse, buggy, furniture and chickens. The Pidgeon house is furnished, while the Gregg house is not, and the latter has a nice chicken house, which the PidgeOn house lacks. Either would make fine home for a retired cattle man Of means.
 The Boquillas Land and Cattle Co.,, already had 700 acres in this valley further north, making 1910 acres in that direction.
