DIED

AT her home at this place on
Saturday morning atfeur o'clock
A. NJ. OF consumption, after an
illness of several months, Harriet
White, wife of II. S. White. She
leayes husband, two sons, two
daughters, and a great manyrela-
tives, as well as the whole com
mt1nity, to mourn=her less. She
filled all the relations Of life With
dignity and honor. As a wife,
mother and friend, she was kind,
atfectionate and true, and her
christian character was as bright
as her faith was steadfast and
sublime. She was not afraid to
die, she longed to depart and be
with Christ. Thus she passed
away in the triumphs Of faith, in
full hope of Immortality. Then,
husband and children, dry your
tears, yeur truest and dearest
earthly friend has made a safe
entranceAinto the paradise ofGod.
Could she speak to you from that
far off land she would say, weep
not for ME, | now rest from all my
labors and am comforted, and
could she speak again, to you, she
would say come home.
Cali not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are DER;
On the border land we left them,
Soon to meet and part no more.

Puzzled The Doctors. :

MOST OF the cases cured by Ayers
lVl Sarsaparilla have been given up
by the regular practice. Physicians are
recommending this medicine more than
ever, and with satisfactory results.
e. NJ. Sargent, Lowell, Mass, says
" Several years ago, my daughter. broke
out with large sores on her hands,
, face, and other parts OF her body. Tho
ease puzzled the doctors. My daughter
used Ayers Sarsaparilla, and it resulted
in complete cure. sHer blood seems to
have been thoroughly purified. as she
has never had so much as piinple
since taking this medicine"
This is to certify that after having
been sick for twelve years with kidney
disease and general debility, and having
been.trcatnd by several physicians with
out relief, am now better in every re-
spcet, and think I am nearly well,
having taken seven bottles Of Ayers
Sarsaparilla. ~ Maria Ludwigson,

Tombstone epitaph., 1890-02-01

Catholic Congress has been held in Baltimore, and among other things 1t declared in favor of cooperating with Protestants for the enforcement of a Sunday law. The power of Rome at Washington is not denied by any one-it is an acknowledged fact. The influence of Rome over the Associated Press, and most of the great newspapers, IS patent te all who have noted the situation. This union of the Catholics in the Sunday law crusade is what the American Sab bath Union has been seeking; and if aught were wanting to show the final outcome of the wicked scheme this alli- ance would fill the bill When we see Protestant forces going hand in hand with Romanists 10 secure religious legis- lation it IS not hard to portend the result when once the door IS opened. Is t nos time to look to our liberties, and send up such a petition to Congress as will give no uncertain sound in behalf of the rights of conscience guaranteed by the constitution as it is? Yea, verify.

Poor Humanity

The common lot is one of sorrow say at least-the pessimists, they who look at the worst side. Certainly what would otherwise be bright existence, is often shadOwed by some ailment that over hangs 1t like pail, obscuring perpetually the radiance that else would light the path. Such an ailment, and a very common one, is nervousness, or in other words, weakness of the nervous system, a condition only irremediable where in efficient or improper means are taken to relieve it. The concurrent experience of nervous people who have consistently used Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is, that 1t Conquers entirely supersensitiveness Cf the nerves, as we'll as diseases-so called which are invited and sustained by their chronic weakness As the nerves gain stamina from the great tonic the trouble disappears. Use the Bitters for malaria, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney troubles
Tombstone epitaph., 1890-02-01

SOME years ago the office of Super intendent of Public Instruction was elective. But for some reason the law was changed and the office was made appointive. This is wrong and con trary to our principle of government. Under our form of government the exceptions to filling offices by election should be very rare. All experience has proved that the people are as capa- ble of placing good men in office as any single man, and more so, for such a direct personal influence cannot be brought to bear on the mass of voters. Our laws should be so amended as to make all the Territorial officers elect i've. If such a practice obtained our affairs would not now be in such a muddled condition. And, moreover, it would have saved the reputation of Arizona at Washington, for so many patriots would not have been there endeavoring to blacken each other s character.

The deed covered eleven sheets -22 pages-of parchment, 14 by 20 inches in size, and transfers the Nam moth, Mars, Raven, Remnant and Santa Catalina mill site, patented, and the Remnant extension, Jenny Lind, Nightingale and Mammoth Wedge, unpatented. These properties were leased to the Mammoth Gold Mines, Limited, for 99 years, by George NJ. Fletcher, and are located on the San Pedro river above Dudleyville.

Is THE the desperate attempt of the Democratic officials to hold on deep laid scheme on their part to retain their offices indefinitely? It looks that way. If by any hook or crook they can hold on until the meeting of the next legislature, and the Council should have a Democratic majority, that body would refuse to confirm any appointments that may be made by Governor, and by this method they would thus continue in office and the strange spectacle be presented Of the dominant party being compelled, through jugglery, to submit to having the offices filled by their political op- ponents. In view of the possibility of this coming to pass, the Republican party throughout the Territory should exercise great care in the selection of candidates for the legislature. It would De DeGUer to put up il0h S'S O''1 didates instead of overgrown boys, as was done in several instances at the last election. And aside from the po- litical point of view, it would be as well to send as representatives others than callow youths who are so sus- ceptibIe to petticoat influence that they cannot resist it, as evidenced by the passage of the obnoxious Sunday lam

IT has been decided to locate those Sunday School School scholars, Ge- ronimo and the balance of his class, on lands in the Indian Territory. It is to be presumed that, in deference to the pleadings of General Crook, and to avoid hurting the feelings of these gentle heather, they will not be kept in 8 "policed camp" This being the case, it is now in order for the people of New Mexico and Arizona to keep 8 sharp lookout, for the portion of h. dian Territory in which these Indians are to be located is not much over 300 miles from their old stamping ground, and in the light of their past record as travellers it would not take them over five or six days to cover that dis tance and commence again their little picnics.
