Welsh prize singers singers from
Wales, has written former represent
alive in this city stating that he very
much fears that he will not be able to
make Salt Lake City with the famous

i,eving the singers would take well

1t seems to you that that
tickling, hacking cough is all
in the throat. But your doc
tor will tell you that this SEN
sation is often decciving. The
cough is often the signal of
deeper trouble in the bron-
chial tubes or in the lung
tissue itself. These inhamcd
membranes can only be
healed by treating the system.
For all lung troubles, espe-
cially in the earlier stages, no
remedy equals SCOTS Emul-
sion of Cod-liver Oil. Its
special power is in healing
the inAalned tissues of the
lungs.

Before the plague reaches Otero
county we wish to give our readers warn
ing. After long season of deserved re-
tirement from business the lightning rod
man is again at work seeking whom he
may devour. With his smooth tongue
and long ladders he is now scooping peo-
ple and school districts in the eastern
part Of the state. The day OF the light
ming rod has passed. For time it was
supposed to have some value in protect
ing house from lightning. but this has
been proven to be fasle assumption.
When put up with scientific accuracy it
is OF no value whatever and when erec-
ted by an agent whose principal busi-
ness is to get greenhorns to sign notes it
causes increased danger instead of giving
protection. The lightning rod agent is
always fraud. The fact that q man
wants to put so-ca]led lightning rod on
your house is conclusive evidence OF his
being a swindler, for he seeks to get
something for nothing. The man who,
in this year OF 1898, gives his note Tor
pays cash) to lightning rod agent de-
serves to have the services OF a guardian
or a conseryatOr.

.Rocky Ford Cantaloupe Co." is Offering
to buy cantaloupes direct from producers
at 80 cents per crate and furnish the
crates. No melon grower who desires
the permanent success OF his business
will deal with Alexander. The melon
growers Of the valley have proved con-
clusively that organization is the only
hope they have for fair profits. To sell
to Alexander would tend to demoralize
the workings Of the organization md
would be to the direct injury of every
grower in the valley. Alexander has
proven himself to be the enemy Of the
