 Gentlcmen-I can cheerfully and truth fully say that 5. S. s. is the greatest blood purifier on earth. In 1881 I contracted blood poison. Physicians treated me with no good results. took half dozen differ ent kinds of blood medicines, but, without receiyRlg any permanent relief was in- duced to try s. s. S. I began the first bottle with the gTayest doubts of success. I had been so often deceived. But i,n- Provement came, and I continued its use until perfectly well. have since married, and have healthy family. No trace of the disease is seen. Swift's Specific did all this for me, and am grateful. Yours truly, J. s. STRADER.

Tbs- little town of Lordsburg, N.

The Silver City Enterprise truthfullY remarks! "If every town in every county Tn the Territory would follow the example of Lordsburg, it would be but a few months until eur streets would be full of strangers, and our country rapidly settled up with new and enterprising citizens.

An Arlzona exchange says that 1t is fact surprising to man, that the council and assembly of the Territory of New Mexico debate and pass laws in Spanish. Courts are opened and closed in that tongue. No American holds an efice under the Territorial government with the exception of one or tive counties, except by the favor of the Mexicans. Voting is carried on in Spanish, They vote the "boleto Republican, or "boleto Democrat" The vote is recorded in the poll books in Spanish not for delegate te Con gress, but fer 'delegadO al congress so;" and if the name of the candidate be American it is changed into the Spanish equivalent. For instance no man in New Mexlco last election voted for Anthony Joseph, the present dele gats 10 Congress, out fer Antonio Jose; just as though this fragment of the United States of America were prov ince of cid Spain.

An Eastern dispatch of the 8Oth ut

An Eastern dispatch of the 30th ut. conveys intelligence of another serious fire in the Calumet branch eff the Cal met &. Hecla mine, more terrible in its effects, since it is accompanied with the loss of eight lives. Miners who escaped the holocaust tell of the ap- palling sight which met their gaze as they crossed on the tenth level to No. 8 shaft. "A roaring confagration was iH progress. The bed plank, mill tim bers, the top, sides and bottom were all on fire, and the noise was like a thousand hurricanes" The scene on the surface. where the families sf the entembed miners had congregated, frantic with grief, was heartrending. There was suspicion that the fire was incendiary, but no proof to that effect could be aaduced. The output of the mlns will not bo materially diminished. At last accounts the fire was not under control.
