A Liberal Offer

Quickly accepted and appreciated by the people of this city. Leading druggists were fairly overrun all day and far into the evening for a sample bottle of Or. Harter'S Iron Tonic.
 Free distribution will continue until close of business hours to- day, and in order that no one will be disappointed we want to state plainly that no free samples will be given away after this date.
 This is positively the last day you can obtain a free bottle of this most famous of all blood purifiers and stomach remedies and most appetizing of tonics.
 Dr. Harter's greatest ambition in life is to make strong, healthy peo- pie out of thin-blooded dyspeptic wrecks.
 He has sent his representatives to Dallas with instructions to give everyone an opportunity to test without cost the value of the only true iron tonic and known specific for all stomach troubles.
 It will be interesting to watch the result of this great free test now going on here and note the change that will be brought about in transforming the great army of dyspeptics into healthy, sound men and women.
 Remember, this is the last day druggists are authorized to give away free sample bottles of Dr. Harter'S Iron Tonic.

and then the mayor would have municipal
administration under full control and be in
a position to be held responsible for its
proper conduct.
The proposed charter, although more
elaborate in statement, in defining the du-
ties Of mayor, imposes no new or enlarged
duties upon him, except, perhaps, the power
to appoint experts to examine the books
of certain officers and the naming of GER
tain officers not heretofore appointive, but
shorn of the power to correct any mistakes
he might make in such appointments by
summary removal.
Only in two instances is the mayor given
the power of removal, viz: The superin.
tendent of buildings for "malfeasance, in
capacity or neglect of duty" and members
of the boards of police and fire commits
sioners for being active in partisan politics.
1t might be mentioned here that although
in several instances the proposed charter
declares that certain officers shall be sub.
ject to removal in certain cases, there
seems to be an utter omission of provi-
sion as to how or by whom it shall be done.

aid of the case of the United States VS..
Haskell ct al, known as the ''Kaweah col.
ony case" you do the members of that
colony an injustice in stating that their
plan was to cut down these trees 1.-THE giant
sequoa), some of which are larger than
those in the Yosemite, saw them up and sell
them The facts in the case are exactly the
contrary. 1t was their purpose, both ex-
pressed and observed. that not one of the
giant trees should not be moiested, and it is a
fact that not one of these trees was feled
or otherwise injured during the existence of
the colony. 1t is matter of fact also that
the colonists upon several occasions turned
cut of their beds--nien, women and children
and fought fires set by careless hunters
and sheepherders that threatened the ex-
istence of these trees.
Believing that The Herald does not wish
to injure or misrepresent these much ma
ligned colonists. l ask space for this correc-
ton. would also say that the location OF
the colony was in Tulare county, instead OF
Kern, as stated.

Mining Notes

The new mining district of Deer Creek.
in Graham county, is attracting good deal
Of attention lately, both here in the terri
tory and out cf it. The district has been
known to contain mineral for some time
but it was not until the new railroad brought
it into greater accessibility that it has begun
TO be prospeoted and its true value ascer-
tanned. The principal deposits to be found
arc coal and copper Most any portion
Of the district is within twenty-five miles Of
the Globe and Bowie railroad and the best
OF timber for mining purposes abounds
Lately. by an act OF congress, the western
line OF the White Mountain Indian reserva-
ton was surveyed and that portion of the
district lying on the south side of the Gila
river was opened TO mineral search and To-
cation. After NOV embcr 10Th next loca-
tions can be made. and the district will be-
gin to be active. The coal is said to be good
in quality and for making coke and the
copper deposits so far known to exist are
near by. The agricultural parts Ct Gra-

affords ready transportation for supplies.
