CANANEA, Son. Mex. March 13.- Reports in the border press tc the effect that there is any trouble in Cananea of a revolutionary EatIrc CT that there is bitter race prejudice dis played by the Mexican people toward foreigners here. is nothing but pure tabrications and the people of Can 2nea are rightly indignant over the publication of the sroundloss reports. Meetings have been held here de- nouncing the papers which published the lying statements and the people. both natives and foreigners are as one In the Announcement of the news. papers who publish stories which are causing worry to relatives and friends of people in Cananea.
 Nothing but harm can come from such stories and if anything detri. mental to the welfare of the foreign. CTS does happen here it would be caused by nothing else but the att.- Jude of some of the border papers It is to be sincerely hoped that noth- ing detrimental to the welfare of Americans be given publicity here after. If articles src truthfully DOT. trayed there would be no fault found with the press, but as it is now there IS nothing but censure for It.

 FILL UP TICKET
Committees Named to See Candidates for Alderman and for Precinct
 Committeeman
ONLY THREE DAYs

Offices sought the men and the democrats of the city last night, in mass meeting, found that it was condition and not a theory that con- frOnted them, a series of conditions, in fact, for it was not one problem, but fifteen, that waited solution. The meeting was primarily one Of the city central committee, called for the purpose of filling vacancies but other important business awaited, and the democrats of the city were in yited to attend the meeting and help to dispose of that business. From all the wards of the city democrats came. and every seat in the council chamber of the city hall was taken. All there were ready to put their shoulders to the wheel, and speedy work was made with the disposal of the business on hand. First, two va cancies on the city committee were hlled. and then the matter of new city ordinances and city councilmen was taken u,, various candidates were discussed, and a committee named to circulate petitions Be yond the councilmen and committee men, this work was unnecessary, for there is no difficulty in finding can didates for the other offices, the sal aried offices, and the matter of the mayoralty candidate has been disposed Of.
 To Name Full Ticket
 The meeting was called 10 order by Chairman Bowen. and the call read by Secretary Thomas. Then the matter of filling vacancies was taken up, it being shown that George Gage and Clint Moon had left town. These offices were filled by the unanimous selection of J. G. Harris and Dan Seed.
 Chairman Bowen then stated that petitions must be filed by Monday night. and called attention to the need of circulating petitions for councilmen and committeeman. Var ious candidates were discussed as being probably willing to make the race for aldermen in the various wards and six were finally selected, 1 to be waited on by committeeman and to have petitions circulated for ] them if they will acctkt Three committeeman from each ward were also tentatively selected in the same l way. The committeeman named ! were, first ward, Hickey, Harris, | Harrington; second ward. Bolin, | Roscoe, Wallace; third ward, Hen 1 derson, Bowen and Vaughn, and | they will have the petitions filled out | and filed by Monday night, as re- quired by law.
 Ward Line Snarl
 In selecting candidates, the ward | line proposition arose. The demo |
Bisbee daily review., 1912-03-15

crats started to make tentative se- lections from the wards laid out on the proposed new lines. City Clerk Fitzpatrick stated that the ordi- nance had been prepared but not passed, and that the city clerk stat ed the election would be held on the old lines. It was brought out that this need not be done, that the ordinance could be passed to take effect immediately, if desired Notwithstanding this there was much confusion as to possible candi- dates.
 One thing was made certain at the meeting of last night, and that is that the democratic party will have 9 strong aldermanic ticket to support Mayor Newman for re-elec- tion. Until the various possibilities weU1 interviewed by committees, however. it was deemed best to make no announcement of possible nomi- nations, or whose petitions it was de- cided to have circulated. The peti- tiOns require twelve signatures in the first ward, thirteen in the third and eight in the second, and these are the numbers the committee were in structed to obtain.
 Will Welcome Others
 The meeting of last night was merely to make sure that there would be no vacancies on the city ticket to make sure that the city committee would be chosen, and that there would be two candidates for aldermen in each ward, and where there were candidates in the field, no action on that office was taken. It should also be understood that the action taken at the mass meeting is not intended to and does no preclude any individual from en- tering the campaign for any office and circulating and filing his peti tion. As stated, the action taken was purely precautionary, to abso- lutely insure no vacancies on the city ticket or the primary ticket.
