w. R. Campbell, Republican candi- date for Sheriff of this county, came in on last Saturdays blackboard, and was around shaking hands with the "dear people," telling them that it would af- ford him the utmost pleasure to serve them for the next two years as their peace officer. Mir. Campbell is gen. tleman of pleasant address and suave manner, and makes a very favorable impression with those whom he meets. Joe Woods will have to ''get a move on himself" or Campbell will run him too close for comfort, notwithstanding Joe is'on a thoroughbred mount and good rider, but we opine he will come in in the lead with clear daylight between them.

The readers of THE HERALD will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in ali its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure new known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a con- stitutional disease, requires a cOnstitu- tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the founda- ton of the disease, and giving the pa tient strength by building up the consti- tuition and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in it's curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of tes- timonials Address

Twenty-two names from Fort Apache reached here on the evening of the 24th, too late to get on the Great Register. 4 good many of them were registered on the 18th and 18th, and registration closed on the 17th. In addition to this, the names were not mailed at Apache until the 20th, and the registering officer neglected to send the afiidavits of the applicants for registration with their names. It will thus be seen that the law has not been compiled with in several particulars, and as a consequence twen- ty-two persons are deprived of the priv ilege of exercising the right of suffrage. In the future, when the Recorder makes a deputy, or the Board appoints regis tering officer, explicit instructions as to his duties should accompany such ap- pointment, then the registering officer will have no excuse for making such blunders, and i'll case they are made, those who are disfranchised by his care lessness or stupidity, will know where to place the blame. The law is too plain to be gotten around No one can vote whose name does not appear on the great register.

If any one who suffers from Rheuma- tism would stop and reason a moment before they decide to purchase some remedy, they could not help avoid any so-called cure that is sold for $I. Figur- ing the retailers, the jobbers, and the manufacturers profits out of that soli- tary dollar, and there is left not over 20 cents for the medicine. Aside from its reputation, and the fact, Dr. Drummond's Lightning Remedy appeals to ones good sense. The price is 5 per bottle and to any one suffering from Rheumatism its as cheap as it is good and effective. Sent to any address by Drummond Medicine Co.,, 4S-50 Maiden Lane, New York. Agents wanted.

 On the 21st the Columbian celebration took place at the school house. At 9 a. m., there was procession of the school children, headed by the St. Johns Brass Band, veterans of the late war, militia and citizens. After marching through the streets the people met at the school house at 10 a. m. Judge Ruiz, Marshal of the Day, read the Presidents procla- nation, and the children saluted the flag The band then played America, after which Miss Allen delivered an ad- dress of acceptance and Miss Noble read an ode, Miss Kempe also delivered an address. The children then gave reel tations which would be a credit to any school in the Territory. Judges Ruiz and Mcdonald delivered eloquent and appropriate addresses as to the impor- tance of the discoveries made by Co., lumbus. The school house was crowded with ladies and gentlemen of St. Johns and vicinity who speak in the highest. terms of the entertainment. Professor Brown, the principal, and Misses Allen, Noble and Kempe, deserve great credit for the manner in which the celebration was conducted, not forgetting the Trns- tees who did everything in their power to make the celebration a success. We think these exercises should be had of- tener, as it gives the children an oppor- tunity to exert themselves i'll their stu diac

Joseph Wakefield brought some very good looking silver ore into town and tried it in blacksmith's forge, the re- suit proving very satisfactory. He says there is an immense body of it. If this is so and the ledge proves as rich as the specimens brought in, it will be a second Comstock, and the White Mountains will be teeming with people in less than tTelYe months.

On the May to Paradise.

Let us hope that the people who hab- itually disregard their health will reach that desirable place, and avoid the To- calty which is less desirable as an eter- nal residence on account of the heat and surroundings generally. But while we tarry in this vale of tears, why should we voluntarily endure the torture of dyspepsia when a systematic use of Hos tetter's Stomach Bitters will rid us of the atrocious malady which-unless phy- sicians are very mnch at iault--tends to shorten the term of our existence. Heartburn, bilIousness, constipation al- most always accompany this complaint and are symptomatic of it. These are all extinguished by the Bitters, which also conquers completely malaria, rheu- matism, nervousness and debility.

THE PLUMBER MAN.

The plumber man came up to plumb
My uncle'S pump in town;
So first he ripped the cellar up,
Then tore the garnet down:
And then he told US with disgust
That neither of the pipes was bust.
He jumped into his dog-cart quick,
And fast he drove away
But sent back, with a load of tools,
Another man next day,
Named Ike, who brought along with him
blooming boy named called Warty Jim.
This Ike he pumped and pumped the pump;
The boy poured water in;
The man kept iawing at the boy
The boy jawed back a'gin;
Then both sat down and ate snack
Before they took the wagon back.
Next week the boss he came along,
And at the pump he frowned
He sent me for the onkey-wrench
While he went bounding round,
And prled the mantelpieces out
And hammered off the waterspout.
By'n-by he hurried off and sent
Three workmen and some wire,
Who brought rusty stove and made
a study charcoal fire.
When they had smoked their pipes then they
Took up that stove and went away.
Well, after that 1 recollect
A chap with solder came:
And then another crafty gent
Who brought more of the same:
Then up this Ike he came once more
And at the other two he swore
The boss then rode up with his bow.
That blooming sassy gump;
And said there was no other way
But buy a DGand-new pump:
But uncle looked below the sink
And found the leak as quick as wink.
And uncle took piece of rag
And tied 1t round the leak
And so the pump was all o. X
Then in about a week
The nlunl her man sent in bic
But the amount he got was-nil.

Poets and DOGS.

Poets have always loved dogs. In this
poets and boys resemble each other,
Walter Savage Landor was devoted to his
dog Giallo, and Byron's epitaph upon his
dog Boatswain we all remember.
80 mark friends remains, these stones
arise;
never had but one, and there he lies"
Cowper was very fond of his dog. and
we know how Charles Lamb, who was a
prose poet, loved his Dash, and how Mrs.
Browning appreciated the little Flush to
whom she indited a poem. The Earl
OF Shaftesbury kept his noble collie in
his library with him at all times, and
Samuel Rogers always walked out with
his dog. Scott declined an invitation to
dinner when his dog died. saying that he
could not accept on account of the "loss
of an old friend"
Wordsworth and Scott both celebrated
in their poems the famous old Gelert.
This dog, a deer-hound, was given by
King John to his son-in-law, Llewellyn,
who kept him at his hunting lodge. in the
neighborhood of the Welsh mountain
Snowdon. Gelert was missed one morn
ing from the hunt by his master. Level
Ign, upon his return to the lodge, saw the
dog, and discovered that his mouth was
besmeared with blood. Concluding that
the dog had devoured his child, the in
furiated master slew the poor animal.
Upon investigation, he discovered a
dead wolf by the child's cradle, while the
child was safely and soundly sleeping.
The brave DOG had saved Llewellyn's
heir from the wolf. a monument was
erected to the faithful creature, which
bears the name of Beth Gelert.-Harper' IS
