Here is a case where the pain inflicted
on six-year-old boy was especially
cruel, and after undergoing the fortunes
produced by the surgeons knife he rap
idly grew worse. Mr.. j. N. Murdoch,
the father OF the boy, residing at 279
Snodgrass street, Dallas, Texas, writes:
"When my son, Will, was SIX years
old, small sore appeared on his lip,
which did not yield TO the usual treat
ment, but before long began TO grow. II
gave him great deal Of pain, and con.
tinued to spread. He was treated by
several good doctors, who said he had
cancer, and advised that an operation
was necessary.
cater much reluctance I, we consented,
and they cut down TO the jaw bone,
which they scraped. The operation was
a severe one, but thought it was the
only hope for my boy. Before great
while the cancer returned, and began to
grow rapidly. We gave him many rcm-
edies without relief, and finally upon the
advice OF a friend, decided to try S.S.S
(Swiit's Specific, and with the second
bottle he began to improve. After twenty
bottles had been taken, the cancer dis
appeared entirely and lie was cured.
The cure was permanent one, for he IS
now seventeen years old, and has never
had sign Of the dreadful disease to re-
turn"
S.S.S. is far ahead OF all other blood
remedies, because it is the only one
which cures deep-scated obstinate blood
diseases such as Cancer, Scrofula,
Eczema, Catarrh, Rheumatism, etc.
It is the only blood remedy guaranteed

SIDE NOTES ON MINING.

During my recent stay in Yavapai county I omitted to mention that a Klondyle existed under the very nose of the Yavapaians. Over on Wolf creek, I was told in Crowned King district, exists a Klondyke Several men went out to work it for a S2,50O block of gold bullion lost there in September last. Speaking of Klondyke, Yavapai fully developed is as good as the Alaska proposition, with the difference that capital and machinery a:e necessary to the devel- opment of the Yavapai propositions. The gold and copper are there. but it needs dollars to get them into market able shape.
 John Brown of Gallup passed through last week to Black canyon to join his partner, who, like MT. Brown, formerly mined coal in the big New Mexico coal district These men have two claims which havo been worked, s20 to s100 per ton be- ing shown. Parties are to examine the claims and sale is possible any day.
 Dr. D. J. Brannen of Flagstaff has mining interests south of Prescott on the Hassayampa.
 Flagstaff has offered grounds for a smelter, the contemplating people an- ticipating shipments of copper bear ing ore from the Grand canyon.
 It is a fact that coal is to be found
Arizona republican., 1897-12-10

northeast of Flagstaff and the belief is prevalent that gold can be mined south of Williams and copper north of that place. I am mot in posses sion of details, hence my inability to speak at length.
 MT Hind, who has had charge of the Duke property, the Equator, which aibuts the United Verde and which has been in litigation for several years, went out this week to Lees Ferry, north of Flagstaff, to examine prop critics.
 Hon. Eben Greenlaw, who served in the Eighteenth legislature, left for Alaska few months ago. His brother, Charles, heard from him lately, his letter being dated from Se- attle, and friend has advices from Nhe ex-legislator dated at Sitka. Eben mentioned to the writer at Prescott his purpose of operating saw mill in the Klondyke and the fact of his going to Alaska proves that he meant what he said. Eben is one of those determined men whose motto is Excelsior. PITTOCK.

ONE DOLLAR EOR GAS.

No injustice would be done II this Legisat-
ure should reduce the price Of gas IN this city
from 81 20 70 81 per thousand feet The Con-
solidated Gas Company has been paying hand
some dividends on largely inflated capital
for many years The quotations for IT'S plen-
tifully watered stock IN Wall Street are now
al almost 80 per cent above par. This city
has been extremely liberal to the companies
which are now supplying gas TO It's people and
has permitted the Consolidated and some Of the
other companies 10 anass great gains through
the use Of the streets and avenues and by means
of other privileges which these organizations
possess. If the gas companies were now men.
aced with fierce rivalry which might reduce
their profits TO small figures then reasons might
be advanced why the Legislature should not cut
down the price But The demand for gas in this
metropolis has expanded vastly IN recent years
In a great many hotels and apartment houses.
and even in private houses. gas is used lavishly
for cooking and for heating. The course pur-
sued by The companies in charging $! % per
thousand fee. for gas used for cooking and for
heating Is wholly without justification. The
electric light companies have not hurt the gas
companies The records Of the dividends paid
on watered capital the statistics which are
easily available as to the excessive profits Of
the gas companies the enormously enlarged use
of gas for cooking and heating and The readily
proved fact that the incandescent light COM
panies charge rates which prevent the displace-
ment Of gas by electric light 10 any such serious
extent as 10 be formidable to the interests of
the gas cOrporations-all these things show that,
at the present rate Of 81 % per thousand. gas
is much more expensive to consumers than IL
should be on Manhattan Island
The work Of distributing the gas on this island
Is carried out at moderate expense and with.
out grave difficulties. Important inventions in
recent years have reduced the cost of manu-.
featuring gas by large percentages There IS
no good reason why the companies should be
allowed to exact more than 81 per thousand feet
Certain Senators and Assemblymen have de-
clared that there Is no urgent demand In this
city for reduction Of the price Of gas This Is
not true There Is such n demand and IL has
found general expression. though il has not been
so emphatically expressed as It might have been
had there been more reason 10 think IL would
be needed by the present Legislature. No lcgis-
latiOn should be adopted which would prevent
the gas companies from obtaining fair re-
turn on capital actually and honestly invested,
but no disnterested person who has given care
ful study to the subject can assert that dollar
gas would prevent the Consolidated Company,
which has SO largely sti1ed competition. aud

Nevertheless. Senator Hoar was quite right

newspaper rumors. For. unharpily, newspaper
rumors Of a certain class on the subject Of cuba
have been VIGOROUSLY Enthusiastically. The RI

n bit more authentic than that one that he
had been shot The Maceo case was another
in point There We're reports, with all posi-
bic circumstance and detail. that he had been
lured to his death under flag of truce and
foully murdered in cold blood. Those reports
were twice as positive and twice as plausible
on the face Of them as this about Rivera. YET
no one now supposes there was the slightest
truth in them.
The fact is. these matters are properly 10 be

better information from lis diplomatic and
consular az .nts than the Senate can get from
scare headlines in sensational newspapers, and il
can act far more effectively through those
agents than the Senate can through infamma-

Senate unqrestionaby is Interested in foreign
affairs and has constitutional voice in their
determination. But the initiative should as
certainly be left 70 the Executive. 1t is for the
