IRRIGATION SECURITIES.

1t has been demonstrated that those
portions of the great domain west OF the
Missouri which were supposed to be
valueless, are, after all, the richest for
the purpose to which no one dreamed of
devotlng them-the raising of crops. By
strange blindness of our own people,
foreign capital has been the first to reap
important advantage of the discovery and
it is only within year or 80 that eastern
investors have given thought to the
great irrigation projects of the west.
Now some OF the most far-seeing financial
leaders of New York and other head
quarters of capital are saying that the
great form of investment of the future
will be the irrigation securities of the
west and Pacific slope.-New York Sun.
Only few days ago we called atten-
ton to the disposition of eastern invest
ors to jump at such securities, and what
we then said is fully confirmed in the
above from one of the casts leading
journals, always conservative in its utter
ances referring to financial matters. The
Suns observation is certainly correct, for
whenever legitimate irrigation enter
prise has gone from the west to the east
ern money centers for aid it has never
failed. In fact investors are earnestly
seeking such securities, as witness the
sale of 100000 of Idaho irrigation canal
bonds in New Hampshire recently at par.
AS has before been remarked, there are
scores Of opportunities in New Mexico's
fertile and well watered valleys for con-
shutting the basis Of such enterprises.
Irrigation lands will unquestionably come

SCARCE AS HENS TEETH.

Citizens and tax payers Of this city and
county, at all acquainted with the circum-
stances and the character OF the men who
were in that alleged funding scheme OF
the alleged bonds of the Texas, Santa Fe
& Northern railroad to the tune Of only
$l7S,000, who believe that the transaction
was either honest or fair or just or legal,
are about as scarce as hens teeth. Hence
it is the private opinion of this journal
publicly expressed, that no tax payer
should pay taxes to meet the interest on
these bonds, unless he has a good deal
more money than he knows what to do
with or that he can use in rational man.

Pinnples.

The old idea of 40 years ago was that facial
eruptions were due to "blood humor," fol
which they gave potash. Thus all the old Sarsa-
parillas contain potash, most Objectionable and
drastic mineral, that instead OF decreasing,
actually creates more eruptions You have no
ticed this when taking other sarsaparillas than
joys. 1t is however now known that the stom.
ach, the blood creating power, is the seat of all
vitiating or cleansing operations A stomach
clogged by indigestion or constipation, vitiates
the blood, result pimples. clean stomach and
healthful digestion purifes it and they disappear
Thus Joys Vegetable sarsaparlla is compounded
after the modern idea to regulate the bowels and
stimulate the digestion. The effect is immediate
and most satisfactory. A short testimonial to
contrast the action of the potash sarsaparillas
and joys modern vegetable preparation Mrs.
c. D. Stuart, of 400 Hayes St. s. F., writes: II
have for years had indigestion, l tried popular
Sarsaparilla but it actually caused more pimples
to break out on my face Hearing that Joys was

PROGRESSIVE TIMES,

Politically as well as industrially the
south is making progress-and if the
south needs to make Roadway in any.
thing it is in politics. Over in Texas
Reagan and Hogg have started out to
down Mills for the senate, and in Louis
lana the warning Democratic factions are
fighting q deadly contest over that great
fraud, the Louisiana state lottery. In
the Carolinas and Tennessee things have
not near so much the ug-handle complex
ion Of former times, and in Georgia the
Hill faction is earnestly out-stripping
CIeveIand's presidential supporters. So
the merry war goes on, and so it bids
fair to continue. Thus indeed is the
south making progress. 1t is one of the
gratifying signs oft these progressive times.
