CENTURION MINE
 GETS FINANCIAL AID
Eastern Metal Selling Com pany Arranges for Devel-
 oping Property

That the Centurion mine has been financed to the extent of s200,000 is the report of those interested in the proposition. It is stated that this sum has been put up by an eastern metal selling company and that $100 900 will be spent for machinery and an equal amount in development. In this connection it is said that J. P. Richardson, chief owner of the pro perty will leave for the east today. A large pump and new machinery which it is expected will have been installed at the property by the first of the year.
 As 10 present development at the Centurion the reports are that water was encountered at the 650 level in such quantities that it was determin- ed to abandon that level until pumps were installed and work was prose cuted at the GOO. Here a fifty foot crosscut was put in and the manage ment states that this is in to I2 per cent ore all the way.
 Within a few days Joe Martinelli, H. McGill and Joe Muheim and others will make a trip to look the property over, all of them being interested as stockholders.

WILSON'S SPEECH
 MAKES FAVORABLE
 IMPRESSION LOCALLY
New Party Supporters as Well as Democrats Praise Governors
 Address

Local interest in the presidential campaign has waned noticeably re- gently. A short time ago the political
 pot was boiling hard and bubbling | merrily. When the republican con vention was In session in Chicago feel i ing waxed warm among the elements
 of that party, at times approached to bitterness, owing to the antagonisms
 that were created in the pre-conyen- ton days
 While the democratic convention
 was in session in Baltimore, the re- suit of every ballot was eagerly
 watched. Then there was some ex- citement over the probable course of Roosevelt, the organization of his third party, and as to what his plat form and his speech would have to say, but before these enunciations were made. interest in them was less evidenced.
 Among the Bull Moosers now there is not the same enthusiasm that was to be found before. It may be that the enunciation of their candidate and the platform that was drafted were exactly what was to be expected, it may be that these proved to be something of a disappointment, but he who is about the streets of Bis been can note the difference between the before and after.
 Undoubtedly, hopelessness of their struggle is the cause for the lack of enthusiasm of the republicans, tho Taftites. A struggle against democra- cy in Arizona has always been more or less Of hopeless affair With the progressives gone, there is but a scanty following of the old guard left in the republican party, that controls the machinery, and that is about all they claim to control
 Many of these are willing to ad- init that Roosevelt will run second in this state. but the more partisan of them are quick to tell newcomers of how much Arizona does not owe to the candidate of the progressive par ", of his insistent efforts to annex this state as a tail to the New Mexi- co kite. The republicans know they are in 8 hopeless struggle against united democracy, which explains their quiesence.
 Had the supreme court decided that state, county and precinct elections should be held this fall, there would have already been a wave of demo cratic enthusiasm sweeping the state, but the opposite being the case, there is only a feeling of quiet confidence in democratic success in the nation, and a certainty of the electoral vote of this state going into the demo- cratic column.
 The speech of acceptance of Wilson made a most favorable impression on progressives of the new party, as well as upon democrats generally, ac- cording to the expressions that were heard yesterday. It had made votes for him hereabouts, and had lost him none.
 When the primaries are held for the nomination of electors on the demo- cratic ticket, there is likely to be some revival of interest among the members of that party. but it is easy 10 see that the supreme court decis- ion will result in a very quiet cam paign in the forty-eighth state. un- less some conditions arise which are not now to be expected.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
oRozco A BANDIT.
Los Angeles Exnress.

NA-No -hAAt1NAto A-A llNHSs
 Orozco. general so-cailed. is prov ing himself a bandit and outlaw Of the most detestable sort. His policy Of encouraging outrage upon Ameri- cans, resident in Mexico, for the pur- pose of forcing intervention, marks him as a man devoid of honor and patriotism and deserving of the con tempt Of honest men of every race
 American sentiment demands am- icable relations with Mexico and fair opportunity for Mexican progress along all legitimate lines of national growth. The American people as q whole entertain nothing but the most kindly interest in the development of the southern republic. They have shown no disposition whatever to re- tard the progress Of the Mexican people, but on the other hand, have felt that their welfare. both material ly. politically and educatiOnally, con tributes indirectly to the welfare and happiness of the American people.
 The standards of civilization in one country necessarily bear in some measure on the welfare of anothel separated from it only by an imagina ry line. Orozco is seemingly quite in capable Of appTeciating the real rela tic2ship between the two countries. American friendship is perhaps the highest possible guaranty of Mexi- can progress.

INEANrILE PARALYSIS.

Arizona people are coming home from California because of the epi- demic of infantile paralysis in Los Angeles and many of the adjacent coast towns. The disease is one of those with which medical science has been able to do very little. The doe tors do not know the cause and they cannot successfully treat a disease unless they know more about it than they do of infantile paralysis. ouarantines are being established in the coast towns against gatherings where children are allowed and oth- CT precautions are being taken, but the disease continues to spread.
 Thirty-three deaths in Los An geles, due to the disease in the past month or so, have been reported.
 The authorities at Los Angeles are, of course, doing everything in their power to check the disease and peo- pie over the entire country hope their efforts will prove successful.
 No disease is dreaded more than one which causes suffering and death among the little ones.
