There is at present a contest in
the election for Mayor Of Union City.
J. w. Woosley, who was for some
years recorder and who often acted
in the absence Of the mayor in the
city court and in presiding over the
meetings of the board, is candidate
to succeed Mr.. Pittnan. Mr.. Woos-
ley is regarded as fine citizen. He
is very kindly known to many of our
citizens, especially the older ones,
who have long resided here. He is
personally esteemed and his qualifi-
cations for mayor are exceptionally
fine. There are number of citizens,
however, who feel that the contest is
against the wishes of those who made
an effort to name a ticket that would
harmonic all the factions heretofore
existing in Union City The effort
was made in good faith. The meetings
were held by the committee named
for that purpose. and the work was
done above board, and approved by
a mass meeting of the citizens, at
which everybody was invited to par
ticipate and in which a great num-
Der of representative citizens did par
ticipate. Upon these people the sup
port of the city ticket is as binding
as any other obligation. 1t is the
same as the obligation the democrat
takes who enters a primary election.
There is no difference So while the
candidates for mayor, Mr.. Meadow
and Mr.. Wocsley, are both fine men,
the effort made by the citizens to
unite the factions will be entirely
destroyed if the city ticket is de-
feated, and while time alone may
heal the differences in city politics
the effort of respectable body of
citizens is disregarded and set for
naught. The Commercial is disposed
to treat this as a public matter al
together, undertaking to make
statement of facts in the case.

DOUGLAS-Word was received in Agua Prieta Thursday that the Chis- pas mining camp, 12 miles south of Arizpe, Sonora, was raided by seven bandits who escaped with S3,00O in gold and an undiscovered amount of merchandise from the Chinese stores a week ago last Wednesday, After the raid the bandits fled south and scattered in different directions. Tel ephone wires were cut and it was sev- eral hours before a posse was sent out in pursuit. The bandits entered the town and forced the few police officers on duty into a tunnel where a guard was placed over them while the remainder of the bandits com pelled the cashier of the company to open the safe. Cash to the amount of approximately $2,000 was taken by the bandits, who then ransacked the Chinese stores, taking $1,000 and a large amount of merchandise. It was said that some of the bandits were former employees Of the company, which is owned by Pedro Pedrancini.

 Carpenter was going through few limbering up exercises at Manhasset, while his manager was in New York conferring with Promoter Rickard concerning moving picture rights and other financial matters.
 Apparently the mystery which is surrounding Carpenters training is only adding interest to the interna- tional bout. for Rickard stated that more than TOO application had been received from newspapers throughout the country for press seats. He esti- mated the total requests for press ac- commodations would exceed 1000.
