Beware OF

Beware of ointments for catarrh that
contain mercury, as mercury will surely
destroy the sense of smell, and completely
deraDge the whole system, when entering
1t through the mucous surfaces. Such
articles should never be used except on
prescriptions from reputable physicians,
as the damage they will do is ten fold to
the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufacturer
by f. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, con-
tains no mercury, and is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. In buying Halls
Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine.

PROCLAMATION.
Having been reliably informed that our
city is threatened with a coal famine, on
account Of the great strike that Is now
going on throughout the United States,
and that unless the private miners go to
work at once our water works, gas works,
and machine shops will have to shut
down, on ccoun OF coal, and leave our
city without water, should there be n
fire;
Now, while l do not want to take sides
with the mine owners, nor the strikers,
but ! Am forced to guard our city's inter
ests, and therefore l hereby order that
the private miners hold a meeting on
Saturday, June IS, 1894, at three o'clock
p. M, and order enough men to work to
supply our city with coal to run all
machinery.
Unless this order be complied with by
noon on Monday, June Is, by the power
and authority vested in me as mayor, l
will proceed to call out troops to guard
said private mines, and put a force TO
work at once 80 that our city may be pro-
tected against fire.
Respectfully,
JOHN c. YOUNG, Mayor.

A Grand Feature


OF Hoods Sarsaparilla is that while II
puriiies the blood and sends il coursing
through the veins, full of richness and
health, it also imparts new life and vigor
to every function of the body. Hence the
expression so often heard: Hoods Sar-
saparilla made a new person Of me" II
overcomes that tired feeling so common
now.
Hoods Pills are purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless, always reliable and
beneficial.

Our genial and versatile friend, Col.
Wells Blodgett, seems to have a
tendency toward attempting, upon
public occasions, to prove that black
is white. This is perhaps loyal, but 1t
Is certainly Quxotic. The doughty

upon an imaginary foe than does the
colonel upon suppositious error. Al

paign of 1892. Colonel Blodgett tried
to prove, by m elaborate argument,
that the republican party was not to
blame for the rascalities that marked
the course of its days of power IN
Missouri: and, last Wednesday, IN 81.
Louis, at the unveiling of u statue Ia
the butcher, Mcneil, he essayed the
task of proving that the subject of his
remarks was not responsible for the
PALMYRA massacre. The colonel failed
TO show that Mcneil did not cause ("

with neither crime, military cruelty or

serves again to remind us of the most
atrocious murder and murderer which

FAIRNESS DEMANDED.

The congressional campaign is al
hand. Lafayette county stands but
little show of being able to name the
standard bearer in the next congress
sional race.
Lafayette county Is expected to roll
up her usual majority for the demo-
cratic nominee, let him be whom he
may. As long as we have 81 little to
do with choosing the man, we ought to
have something to say in regard to the
manner of making that choice.
Lafayette county demands that the
nominee of the party shall be the choice
OF a majority of all the democrats in
the district.
We do not want any boss rule;
neither do we want a few ward-heelers
in Kansas City to hold midnight meet
ings in the back room of a saloon, and
select the delegates to u congressional
c invention, and then force their cleo
ton at a so-called primary election.
We want an honest ballot and a fair
count; We want the honorable, high
minded democrats of Jackson county
to select honorable men AS delegates,
and then, when the nomination is made,
knowing the nominee to be an honest
man, and the choice of the party,
Lafayette county will do her best to
elect him.
The fight this year will be hot. The
majority is not expected to be large. 1t
is necessary that there be no divisions
or dissensions in our ranks. Let Jack
son county democrats see to it that the
hoOdlums and strikers are kept in the
rear.
When we go into a convention let us
see thai there are no knives concealed.
Let every candidate pledge himself and
his friends. Then nominate Il good
man bury all issues. and go before the
people TO win.

A HOT, SWIFT rs MILES.
Arrangements All Made for the
Big Bicycle Race.
Brown Making Trial Spin-A Total
of Eight Entries Probable-A
Good Race Ahead.

Definite and final arrangements have
been made for the Nogales-T Tucson long
distance bicycle race.
The race will not be time race but
distance affair. The riders will start to-
gether and the first man in wins. This
will make the event much more salts
factory in Tucson. Thus it sill be seen
that the first man 10 arrive here Will be
the champion OF the territory. and the
waiting throng here will see at once
without watches who wins.
10. Brown, of Phoenix, who will be
one OF the entries, Was here this morn
ing aud mace all arrangements. He
came over on his wheel from his home.
This noon he star ed for Nogales on his
bicycle, and will view the road, and to-
morrow afternoon he will return.
Mr.. Brown represented the Phoenix
contingent. His town will furnish the
first prize, which will be high-grade
Stearns wheel, or a wheel of any make
chosen by the winner, provided the
agents for the wheel selected will pro-
mise the wheel at the same price the
Stearn5 offers. Should Tucson or No
gales men win they will probably choose
a Victor, Columbia or a Lu Mi-Num
should Phoenix men be first in they will
likely likely lect Stearns.
Tue entries now will be less than at
first expected, but enough for a good
race. Phoenix will have two riders
beside Mr.. Brown; Tucson will have
Fred Graves for certainly, represent
ing the Agent Hart, of the Lu- Mi-Num,
and an effort will be made to get one
of the Zabriskie boys and Eddie John
son, the latter of whom will ride fer the
Victor agency; Nogales will be represent
ed by Willis Wright and P. B. Yates.
Between all the riders there is little to
choose. All are strong, have endurance
and are swift.
Another event have has been
sanctioned by the l.. A. W., a record
race at the Union Park, on the Both.
A feature will be o sixteen-year-old
wonder"

OF completely IN stage robbing. that be-
you'd having fallen into bad company
there are no serious implications against
him. The CITIZEN takes great pleasure

he was a resident of Arizona, and all

With splendid pumping plant, cap-
able of raising $4,000 gallons per minute
to tie surface; with a we'll sunk 20 a
depth of 80 or 40 feet, from which flows
an exbaustless supply Of water: and
with over 100 acres Of land already un-
der cultivation, there is nothing to
prevent this enterprise from attaining
a success which will undou otedly sp-
peal to any one possessing sound busi.

drawing outside capital to Wilcox.
Whatever obstacles the promoters
may have encountered in sinking the

gallons Of gasoline in an eight hour day.
1t Is not yet necessary to ker o the pump

city; but 1t is being operated at inter-
walls to raise. about $1,000 gallons Of
water per minute, which is more than
sufficient to thoroughly irrigate the

under cultivation about one hundred
acres, sown principally with barley and
alfalfa; but there are also twelve or
fifteen acres OF patatoes, cabbage, on

Is also contemplating planting forty
acres more in beans. Owing to the
cold weather and lack of water at the
start, the first growth of barley and al
falfa has been rather light. but there 10
DO reason to expect that the neat crop
will be anything but a heavy one.
About March 1st the company planted
800 fruit trees OF various kinds, includ-
ding plums, apples, aprIcots, etc., which
are doing exceptionally Well.
Part of the lands are being worked by
Peter Moore, who has leased 200 acres
OF the company; the balance is under
the care of Mr.. Pool, for the company;
who also has charge Of the pumping

II is denied at the treasury depart
ment that the administration is contem-
plating another bond issue, but il is
significantly added that there is enough
money in sight to keep things running
until about August l, and therein lies
the milk in the cocoanut. Ii required all
the influence at the command of the
administration to keep down An open
revolt among the democrats in congress
when Secretary Carlisle issued those
bonds few months ago, and now that
the administration has fewer offices to
give out it would be still more difficult.
For that reason the administration
wishes to postpone another issue OF
bonds until congress hes adjourned, and
it hopes that it will have adjourned by
the first OF August.

nov said that rest AID Teccuper8tion OF
strength is all that is necessary. But
few people in the country agree with
the president as to his financial policy,
but even his openly avowed enemies sim
cerely regret to learn of his illness. AS
president of the United States he is
honored and respected, and any serious
illness to him would be regarded as a
national calamity. More particularly
would this view be taken Of it by repub-
licans. They have real friendship for
the man of destiny, p feeliOg that is re-
ciprocated by the president. The demo-
cratic party may kick in the traces,
baulk and pull back as stubborn as a
roped dog that is being dragged to a
drowning tank, hut with such leader
hey must go. True, under his domina-
ton the party has been dragging the
country to its ruin, ard men pray that
the time be hastened and the end
reached when the old shall give way to
the new, and the democratic party with
its prostrative and destruction policy
shall have been turned under and pro-
gress and prosperity ence more spread

only President Cleveland, but the en-

THE WEEKS WEATHER.
Low Temperatures- Watermelons at
Yuma-Fruit Outlook.

For the week endi g June 11th 1894.
Abornally low temperatures, almost
continuously clear sky, aud an entire ab-
ssnce of RAIN have characterized the
weather of the past week.
On the whole, the conditions appear
to have been highly favorable to the
harvesting Of fruit. grain, and hay, and
these operations have gone forward
very satisfactorily under the favorable
circumstances that have continued for
the past several weeks.
The most regrettable feature of the
situation, as shown by the weeks report
is the increased number of complaints
due to scarcity of water for irrigation,
and effects of the drouth o1 ranges and
livestock. However, shou d normal
conditions prevail, the time is but few
weeks distant when the regular summer
rains ought to begin, which in case it
is believed that no serious disaster to
agricultural, interests viii intervene.
The following information has been
condensed from the reports of CORES
pondents and from tn local papers.
Yuma Co, Yuma-Wea,her very fire

tables Second crop of alfalfa is well
nigh cut, and is une of the finest ever
grown IN this section. WatermelOns

Fruit threes are growing rapidly. The
overflow of ihs Colorado is bringing
on an excellent crop Of grass; the wild
hay crop will be very large. Green corn
has been in the market for week
Palomas-This is the strsJ week with

tinues much longer the third crop of

Maricopa Co, PhOenix-Almonds are
nearly ripe. also melons. Oranges are
in fine condition; trees have made a
vigorous second growth; the fruit is one
and half inches in diameter. Peaches
| are ripe and are becoming plentiful on
the fruit-stande. Royal ana Moorpark
apricots are in abundance.
Peaches, figs blackberries and apri-
cots are on t. e market. Grapes are well
set. Wa5ermelons will soon be ripe.
Water for irrigation remains scarce.
Yavapai Co., Prescott-Some Of the
| orchards look fine, ard others are bare
OF fruit. Stock on ranges falling off and
rain is badly needed.
Cochise Co., Weather is
telling on the water supply, the spriu gs
showing less water. Fruit looks we'll so
| far.
Bepson-Crops are looking fine in the
San Pedro valley below Benson. Gut
ting OF wheat AMI barley hay commenced
last week, and yields are turning out
large.
Graham Co, Solomonvills-The har-
vesting of wheat and barley is in full
| operation it will require about two
months to complete the work of harves-
ting and threshing the crop.
