SOME FRIENDLY ADVICE.

It is folly for hungry office seekers to join in frantic scramble for places under the incoming administration. Practically all federal offices, except those filled by the president, with the advice and consent of the senate" are now under civil service rules, and there President-elect Mckinley pro- poses they shall remain. On this point Major Mckinley has left no one in doubt. In his letter of acceptance he used this emphatic language: "The pledge of the Republican National con- vention that our civil service laws shall be sustained and thoroughly and honestly enforced and extended wherever practicable is in keeping with the position of the party for the last twenty-four years, and will be faithfully observed" It was Bryan who publicly committed himself to a resolution favoring the vicious spells system

THE IRRIGATION PROBLEM.

The work of the irrigation congress should appeal to the residents of other portions of Arizona as well as to those of this valley Irri- gation means much to every inter est in the territory. When the great problem is solved, as it will be one of these days, every portion of the ter rit0ry will receive benefit. The crying need just now is to get the people of the country interested in the irriga- tion idea Government ownership of land in this country is now restricted almost entirely to the arid belt With our population increasing yearly at land will soon become one of extreme importance. The government cannot ask people to settle upon desert lands. It must provide some way of making those lands productive Water 1 is the great disideratum. A vast amount of water is going to waste in the arid regions every day through lack of means to conserve it. One of the objects of the irrigation congress is to get the government in- terested in the water storage propo- sition. To secure this interest it is first necessary that the general public should be educated on the subject of irrigation. The congress has done much in the last four years to attract public attention to the question. This year the congress is to be held in the very center of the greatest irrigation enterprises on the continent An ob. ject lesson is presented in this valley Iof ircalculable benefit to the cause ot
 Irrigation. Every citizen of Arizona
 should appreciate the importance o
 the coming session and do all that lies
 in his power to make it successful
 The object aimed at is of vital interes to Arizona.

NOTES OF INTEREST.

Alexander Stephens Clay, who will succeed General Gordon of Georgia in the United States senate, is known all over Georgia as Steve" Clay. He worked on a farm as a boy, studied law, and went into politics, serving several terms in the state legislature In 1889 he was elected speaker of the house Afterward he became state senator, and was elected president of the senate. He became chairman of the state executive committee of the Democratic party in 1894.

Inn he added: You overrate my po litical passion. Besides, I have as lit tie responsibility as influence, and I shall scarcely live to see the conse quences of what is now being done or left undone. I regret that after being for thirty years on the rise we are now going backward. I shall not, it is true, live to see the end, but I pity my sons" Some one in the party men toned the proposal to prosecute the prince. For my part" he replied, "I have not the slightest objection to it, if they wish to give me dramatic exit" The conversation then turned to Bismarck's great age, and the hopes which his foes built upon it. Smiling, the prince said: q am, of course, powerless against age; but I don't feel so frail as those gentlemen believe. am certainly going downward on the path of life, but only slowly.
 Governor-elect G. w. Atkinson of West Virginia is thus described in the Washington Post: "'Wes' Atkinson, as his friends call him, is one of the best liked men of the mountain state, of which he is native. Born in the city of Charlestown forty-nine years ago, he passed his younger days in editing a newspaper and practicing law at the same time. When he for sock journalism entirely for the bar he moved to Wheeling, where he built up a paying practice, that was inter rupted for a little while by his cleo | tion to the Fifty-frst congress. Gov ernor Atkinson had no desire for a con- tinuation of his career as a represent ative, and regards congressional life as utterly without attraction. In per son the new governor is very tall and straight, with prominent features, long black hair, and dark eyes and dark mustache"

"Only a trifle," you say; perhaps so, but it is best not to trifle with it. That cough, if neglected, may result in some thing serious, such as bronchitis, pneu- monia, or even consumption. Sore throat, colds, coughs, hoarseness, diff culty of breathing, and similar disor- ders, though so common as to excite no alarm, should be treated without delay. The continued irritation of the bron- chial tubes may result in a dangerous inflammation The best remedy to take is Ayers Cherry Pectoral. It is agreeable to the taste, only small doses are needed, and it is always ready for use Actors, singers, preachers, teach CTS, auctioneers, and all whose vocal organs are severely taxed, declare they prefer this preparation to any other. It affords speedy relief, soothes and heals the irritated mucous membrane, and gives tone, strength and flexibility to the voice. No other medicine is so prompt to act and so sure to cure as Ayers Cherry Pectoral. To it were awarded medal and diploma at the Worlds Fair.

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE
 WORLDS FAIR.

Ayers Sarsaparilia enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair. Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on it's merits"

IT WON'T GO.

It is hardly credible that Secretary Carlisle will urge, in his forthcoming annual report, the imposition of a duty on tea and coffee for the purpose of temporarily increasing the federal revenues. The house of representa- tives is overwhelmingly Republican, and no one knows better than the sec retary of the treasury that the last Republican National platform-a plat form which has been ratified by greater popular majority than any other ever put forth in this republic explicitly declared for the free ad mission of the necessaries of life which we do, not produce' Such a sugges- tion would not only be an insult to the Republican majority in the pres ent house, but an announcement on the part of Secretary Carlisle that the mandate of the people, as expressed at the ballot box, should be deliberately ignored. It would also constitute proof that the administration is not sincere in it's efforts to add to the government revenues, for nothing is more certain than that no Republican house or sen ate will consent to revive a taxed
