DEMOCRATIC PARTY
 CAMPAIGNERS GIVEN
 HOUSING RECEPTIONS

The Democratic campaigners met with the heartiest receptions of their tour in Mohave county, especially in Kingnlan, Chloride and Oatman. The delegation spent Sunday in Oatman and Chloride. Splitting the delegation in half, one party went over to Chlor- idle and the other to Oatman, where open air meetings were held about noon. At night the delegations swapped places, the Chloride delega- tion going to Oatman and the Oatman party to Chloride. At both places the two meetings were attended by great crowds of people. The meeting in the evening had overflow crowds at the theatres.
 The visitors were more than pleased with their receptions, especially as they had ;he largest crowds so far in their campaigning of the northern counties. They left on the early morn ing train yesterday for Jerome and Prescott.
 Among the visitors were Mrs. Henry F. Ashurst and Mrs. Carl Hayden. It was the first visit of Mrs. Ashurst to Mohave county, and she expressed her self as astonished with the importance of the three towns visited and with the seeming prosperity. Mrs. Hayden had previously visited many of the towns in the county and has many friends here.
 The success of the meeting at Chlor- idle was due to the good work of A. M. MacDuffee, while at Oatman Charles DetricI and Tom Hogan performed the honors in a most creditable manner.

STUDLEY WINNER
 IN LEGAL ACTION

In the Superior Court yesterday the trial of the action of G. L. Cooper of Los Angeles against William A. Stud ley was heard before Judge J. A. Ellis.
 The cause grew out of an option given by Studley to Cooper something over a year ago, and which option had expired. Cooper claimed rights under the option, but in the trial of the cross-complaint yesterday the court held that the option had long expired before a new option had been given by Studley to other parties.
 The cause was defended by c. G. Krook and Dan Worth appeared for or on behalf of the plaintiffs attor- ney, who had withdrawn from the case.
 With the clearing up of this matter the Wrigley people will now go ahead with greater energy on the Studley property, although they already have things shaped up for a big develop ment campaign.

HEAVY TONNAGE OF
 ORE BEING SHIPPED

A statement from the freight de- partment of the Santa Fe railway, re- gently made to a mining man of this district, was to the effect that for the nine months ending June 30, 1916 there were S73 cars of ore.
 This is a startling rise in freight shipments from Chloride, as few peo- pie realize the tremendous traffic in ores from this section. It is said that a comparison of incoming freight would prove even more striking.

BILL WILLIAMS
 FORK WATERS
 ID BE UTILIZED

George A. Thayer of Prescott has filed in the Yuma county recorders office at Yuma a damsite location on Bill Williams Fork and also an ap- propriation of all the waters of the creek. The intention or the locator and his associates is to dam the creek and use the waters for power and irrigation purposes. The dam will be in the Striped Canyon section of the creek, which has been the point of action of many men who have had designs on the waters of the Bill Williams.
 Mir. Thayer and associates have also covered the waters of Burro Creek with locations and have let contracts for the building of dams to create power for transmission into the min ing sections of the county. Bill Will jams Fork is expected to add largely to the power that is to be brought into Kingman and points in the range to the north.
 It was reported in Kingman yester- day that a meeting of the directors of the Desert Power and Water com pany was being held in Chicago to discuss a proposition of the Burro Creek Hydro-electric Power company, to take over the plant in Kingman and operate it as an auxiliary of the hydro plants. While this is not off, cial, it is quite probable that some thing along these lines are under con sideration.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES

CFrom oatman Section Daily Miner.)

(From oatman Section Daily Miner.)
 The first political meeting of local state and national Democratic nom- inees in Oatman was held Sunday at noon, and despite the short time 1T which the local committeeman had tc advertise the meeting, a large ano enthusiastic audience greeted them Hon. w. P. Mahoney, Mohave County nominee for the State Senate, acted as chairman of the meeting, and his original introductions were received with much applause. MT. Mahoney was as much taken by surprise at the arrival of the candidates as were the majority of the voters. Consequently he was hauled out of his car on his way home from work at the Oatman Combination to act as chairman in his "digging" clothes.
 Governor Hunt was the first speaker and his remarks on state and national affairs were heartily app1auded. He clearly defined his policies.
 c. R. Howe, nominee for the state tax commissioner, was the next speaker. His address was much ap- preciated and was very enlightening regarding the affairs of the commis- sion.
 Congressman Hayden delivered a speech that will long be remembered in Oatman. He dwelt upon the nat ional campaign and made many com parisons between the Republican and Democratic parties.
 The closing speech was made by Attorney General Wiley E. Jones. It was evident that he made friends for himself and the party. At 2:SO D. m, the party left for Chloride where they spoke Sunday evening.
 "BiIly" Mahoney was again the Cndlr0ldn OI Ile ulOSIlllS db OllC O4lAiiSl Hotel in the evening, but he was differently attired but not more ap- propriately considering the viewpoint of his many Oatnan friends.
 c. o. Case, nominee for the office of superintendent of public instruc- tion, was the first speaker introduced and, after announcing his policies, gave way to Senator Henry F. Ashurst who held the large audience spell bound for two hours. In his tall Senator Ashurst outlined the accom-. plishments of his party in the past two years.
 The automobile in which Jess B Boyce, David F. Johnson, Amos A Betts and G. H. Bolin were coming tC Oatman was disabled several mile: this side of Kingman, and the occu' pants were unable to be present al the meeting. However, Senator Ash urst did not forget them, and it i' safe to say that his remarks as tC the absent candidates gained then many votes.
