SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT

The trade of the country is settling down to the enjoyment of conditions which show substantial improve memt. There has been a general gain in stability following naturally and logically the prosperous agricultural season.
 This is seen in the report of com mercfal failures during October. The aggregate is smaller than in any sin gle month, with two or three excep- tions, since the great depression came upon the country in 1893. The i'm provement appears to be general, not local or specific, including all classes of manufacturing industries as well a: of trade.
 As regards the employment of la Dor, the prospect continues to bright en. The month of October has seer more works enter upon activity, mone workmen employed; and the ship. ments of manufactured goods for the first week of November, as reporteE by the commercial agencies, have been larger by thousands of cases than in the corresponding week CT any preceding year.
 There is apparently substantia cause for the celebration of a req Thanksgiving day this year.

The Republican was unfair in it's criticism of the Phoenix chamber of commerce. While that organization, like all others, has made more CT less mistakes, yet it has performed splendid service for Maricopa county during the past year. Some of our largest taxpayers are members of the organization and always stand in readiness to aid the city and county by all legitimate means. MT. tount, while acting president, worked like a Trojan to keep the organization up and the large membership at the pres ent time clearly demonstrates that his labor was not in vain. The Ga zette entertains a high regard for the chamber of commerce as now consti- tutsd and shall endeavor to aid it to the best of its ability.-Gazette.
 Strangely enough the Gazette fails to specify concerning the "splendid service" performed by the chamber of commerce. Give us the particulars neighbor, and we will cheerfully print them.

SHORTEST ON RECORD.
Murderer Convicted Sixty Hours Af-
 ter His Crime

Pittsburg, Nov. 12.-A special to the News frcIm Ripley, w. Va, says that John F. Morgan, who, on We'd nesday night, murdered Mrs. Alice Green and her two grown children, Jimmie and Matilda, near there, was indicted for the crime on Wednesday, tried and found guilty on Thursday, and was senltanoed today.
 Morgan, alias Raines, who is 27 years of age, made, confession, in which he said: q killed Matilda Pfosu first, the old lady second and Jimmie last. I killed them in self defense.'
 The jury remained out one hour and returned a verdict of guilty in the first degree. Morgan took the verdict coolly and appeared unconcerned.
 The trial is the shortest on record, lasting only five hours and the mur- derer was convicted sixty hours after the crime was committed
 It Is now known that instead of committing his murderoms work with a club, as was first supposed, he used a hatchet. With it he broke down the door of Mrs. Greens room, after which he almost instantly killed his aged victim by a blow upon the head. The hatchet also was the instrument used in killing Miss Pfost and wound ing Miss Alice Pfost. Young James Green, who made his escape from the house, was pursued and struck down in the yard with boulder, and here a mattock came ia play and the young mann was beaten, to death with that. His features were pounded almost beyond recognition and his skull was crushed like an egg shell. The heads of both the other victims were horri- ply mutilated.
 From all indications the crime, in part, at least, was premeditateld, and it would seem for the sole purpose of gaining the mo1ay received for a horse sold by the Greens some weeks ago for which a note was taken for the $56.

On all public questions my views have
been publised, and are known.
II regard the free silver question as
having been settled by natural laws.
Nobody prefers silver 10 gold as metal,
and never will. The discovery of the

enormous quantities vet to be discover

studied the country very thoroughly
and am satisfied that some day in the
LOO mile chain of mountains beyond
the Klondike basin there viii be found
gold in lodges like the limestone in the
geological formation of Kentucky. The
earth being fiattened at the poles and
more compressed there the gold is found
there in more compact, more dense from
The gold of Africa is found nearest the
pole, and the Alaska discoveries show
that it is to be found there in vaster
quantities than it has ever been known
before. We may not live to see it, but
L think the time will come when the
yessls in Cur houses will be made Of pure
gold.
Mr.. Seward dose not take the credit
in his published papers of having secur-
ed the purchase of Alaska and to me
that credit is nat denied. 1t is my desire

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy H.

not doctored too much is not liable 10
weakness or disease, except in rare cases.
1t is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease
or inconvenience manifested in the kid
neys, back, bladder or urinary passage is
often, by mistake, attributed to female
weakness or womb trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and may be IS
easily avoided. To find out correctly,
set your urine aside for twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild
