Mr.. Lewis. our old veteran
hardware merchant, has sent to
all his old customers the follow
ing announcement:
This is to give you notice that
on and after the first day of July
1896, goods will be sold at my
store for cash only.
| make this change because.
after an experience of twenty
six years here in the Hardware
trade, I am fully convinced that
it is impossible for anyone to do
a successful business under the
present existing circumstances
and conditions on any other than
a strictly cash basis. Thanking
you for past trade, I hope for it's
continuance on the new basis,
confident I can make it more to
your advantage than ever. My
motto will still be as heretofore:
The best goods at the lowest
prices .
Yours very truly,
+ =>-- -,=... =. = : A. N. LEWIS.
Whatever opinion there may
be in regard to Mr.. Lewis action;
| anyone who has carefully
observed and considered the
present condition and tendency
Of business must admit that in
both city and country it is appar-
ent that the cash stores are re-
|ceiVing a constantly increasing
share Of the patro ronage= of the gen.
eral public. It is also obvious
that without . certain proportion
LOT this cash trade no credit store
could long exist.

The unparalleled success of Dr. o. D. Weeks as physician and sur59on since coming to this city some weeks ago, as well as in San Francisco and other cities he has practiced, has caused world of interest throughout the valley as well as Phoenix, and his great skill and unerring diagnosis of the numer- ous complex and chronic cases followed by immediate relief and permanent cure has won for him unstinted praise and the good will of this people.
 A permanent cure of many citizens of long standing diseases that had been pronounced incurable attracted wide spread attention, and has been source of astonishment and wonder. In fact, so remarkable were the results achiev- ed and cures accomplished that not un- til incontrovertable facts, supported by overwhelming evidence of authen- ticated and indisputable proofs were obtained, would they be given cre- dence. But the fine discrimination of the more intelligent class is being man. ifested by the constant stream of afiiic- ted humanity daily visiting his office and bestowing upon him such un- bounded confidence and immense practice. His patients are numbered throughout the entire valley and coun- try, and those who once repose in him their confidence giving him their pat ronage. return with some friend who needs immediate relief, and SO. each day new evidence of his skill and their confidence has increased his practice to an enormous extent.

THANKS, GEORGE !

George Christ, who we believe is em- ployed in some capacity by the Repub- lican national committee, at headquar- ters in Chicago, has sent to the SILVER BELT the Republican campaign text book, and pamphlets advocating the gold standard (which they are pleased to call "sound money'0 in opposition to the free coinage of silver and gole, at l6 to 1. Mir. Christ would accom- plish better results for Mckinley by confining his work to Ohio. where, late reports declare, the Major Is losing ground.
 However, we find some things of in terest in the textbook. A comparison of the Republican national platforms shows how completely the Republican party of the east has changed its posi- tion on the money question since 1888, when they made the following declar- ation:
 "The Republican party is in favor of the use of both gold and silver as money, and condemns the policy O. the Democratic administration in its efforts to demonetize silver"
 The money plank of the platform adopted this year at St. Louis reads, in part
 "The Republican party is unreserv- edly in favor of sound money. We are, therefore, opposed to the free coinage of silver, except by information. al agreement with the leading conner cial nations of the world, which we pledge ourselves to promote, and until such agreement can be obtained the ex isting gold standard must be preserved. :"
 There have been three international conferences on the silver question, all utterly void of results, except to em- phasize the determination of England and European nations to adhere to the gold standard The international agreement ruse has been worked too often. If bimetallism is good thing for the United States, why not elect Bryan and silver Congress, and get It |?

done by simply holding the wrist, giv- ing unmistakable proof of his ability, by laying hold of the disease in so mas Serful way, wrestling the sufferer from untold agony, giving immediate com fort and at last perfect health. This is testified to by all patients he has dis charged as cured, which are numerous.
 He comes from San Francisco recom- mended by the best people as one who understands the nature, cause and cure for all chronic diseases man or woman is afflicted with and right well does he deserve this unstinted praise. His short stay of a month or six weeks in Mesa and Tempe was unqualified in successful cures of many chronic di- seases pronounced incurable as is evi- denced by the praise from those whom he has cured, as well as a continuation of a large portion of practice from those places, patients who have come here to be under his special attention.
 No disease has been too hidden, com piex or chronic to baffle him, which is manifested daily by patients pronounc- ed incurable being treated and finding themselves in an incredible short time so far recovered as to be able to say that nothing but a little patience and continuance of his medical direction is necessary to restore them to health.
 The press is loud in his praise, as a mouthpiece of the public, and no one has been able to say, as yet that the doctor has failed once, to make sue cessful cure of all who have given him an opportunity to do them good Arizona Gazette.

They nearly all are in a plight financially, and, as the Courie- says, only the most conscientious and intelligent management will sage them from bankruptcy.

The Chicago Record has undertaken the herculean task of polling twelve states composing the central west, the storm center of the Presidential contest Inquiries to the number of 75O, 900 will be sent out and the Record believes the result will clearly establish whether the prepondering sentiment is in favor of Mckinley or Bryan. The canvass will be conducted under the supervision of board of election commissioners composed of well-known representatives of all the political parties, che entire expense to be paid by the Record. A complete poll of the registered voters of Chicago is contemplated. The states to be boiled are Illinois, Indiana, Mich. igan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Da- kota, South Dakota.

An Albuquerque, \. M., dispatch of Oct. 8, to the Journal Miner, reports an unsuccessful attempt to rob the west bound Atlantic and Pacific passenger train at Rio Puerco, thirty-four miles west of Albuquerque. The engineer and fireman were covered by an armed and masked man, while two others pro ceeded to the express car and demanded admittance. It was then that the off cers opened fire on the robbers, shot one of them dead, and made it so warm for the others that they fled. A dis patch to the Examiner. of Oct. 4, says Deputy Marshal Loomis is certain that the dead bandit is Cole Young, the leader of the gang that recently held mp the No9ales bank and robbed the Separ postofliee, and that Young is the man who shot and killed the line rider between Benson and Nogales, who was one of the posse pursuing the robbers. If this is true, the rewards for the dead band if aggregate $500.

 Whereas, under an act of the Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, en- titled "Elections," approve March sth, 1887. it is provided that there shall be held through out the Territory, upon the Tuesday after the first Monday in November A. D. 1888. and every two years thereafter, an election for members of the Legislative Assembly, and such other officers as may be required by law shall be chosen at such election.
 And, whereas, it is further provided in said act that ct least thirty days before each gen eral election the Governor must issue an Flee tiun Proclamation, under the great seal of the Territory, and transmit copies thereof to the counties in which such elections are to be held. such Proclamation to contain a state- ment of the time of the election, and the off ces to be filled, and the offer of reward in the form prescribed by said act.
 Now. therefore, I, Benjamin J. Franklin. Governor of Arizona, in pursuance of the duty enjoined uppn me, do hereby order a general election to be held on the Tuesday 6 ter the first Monday in November A.

The Arizona Republican, heretofore one of the strongest free silver advo- cates among the newspapers of the Ter ritory, changed hands on tue 4th inst, c. c. Randolph, of Washington, D. C., being the purchaser. The full Repub- lican national, territorial and county ticket heads the first editorial column. While the change of policy on the money question by so prominent a newspaper is to be regretted, it has no significance further than that the gold bugs have the most money, and it takes money and lots of it to run goldbug paper in Arizona. The people of Ari
 zona are for free silver, and those who support an enterprise in their midst hostile tO their best interests, are, to say the least, lacking in common sense.

This is no year for Assembling on the money question. The people will not tolerate it. The political acrobat has lost his job, and the candidate must stand squarely upon the platform on which he Is nominated. MT Thatcher, of New York, goldbug who sought election on a silver platform, discovered this to his sorrow, and withdrew as candidate for the governorship. He was despised by the gold men as well as by the silver supporters. "Thatch- erism" is Q word that has found its place in the political vocabulary of the day. His experience should prove a lesson to any other ambitious individual in Arizona or elsewhere who thinks he can ride two horses at the same time while they are going in opposite di' rections.
